How has CrossFit Kalamazoo changed your life, lifestyle, and level of fitness?
CFK has helped me maintain my fitness, has provided an outlet for stress relief and mental decompression.
If someone asked you “What is CrossFit Kalamazoo” how would you answer?
CFK is a great CrossFit gym that provides a great environment to learn new skills while getting fit and meeting new people.
What advice would you give someone walking into CrossFit Kalamazoo for the first time?
CrossFit is hard and it’s intimidating learning all the movements but keep with it and gets better.
What is your favorite CrossFit movement? Snatch. It requires a lot of strength, mobility, and coordination all in one.
What is your least favorite CrossFit movement? And why? Hand stand push ups; I think it puts a lot of strain on the neck and wrists. It is good for getting shoulder strength and requires coordination but I think push presses focus on similar muscle groups.
Tell us something that we would be surprised to know about you?
I’m pretty good at cooking Italian food despite my heritage and my mom teaching me traditional cuisine from a young age.
If you could go on a road trip with any person (dead or alive), who would you choose and where would you go? Why? Other than Jess, my wife, I would probably pick Dominik Hasek, former goalie of the Buffalo Sabres to pick his brain during a trip through the Swiss Alps.
