Iron Boot spotlight 🔦
Meet coach Karol!
Karol is an OG of Iron Boot with years of coaching experience under her belt. A 63 year-old mom, wife, certified CrossFit coach, and soon-to-be first-time grandma!
“I may have a few more candles on my birthday cake, but I’m not slowing down anytime soon. I believe getting older doesn’t mean getting weaker—it means getting smarter about how you train. I love being active, challenging myself, and showing people that you’re never too old to get stronger, try something new, or surprise yourself.”
Karol’s favorite thing about coaching:
“Watching people do something they were convinced they couldn’t do. That “HOLY COW, I just did that!” moment never gets old. I love pushing people just outside their comfort zone, cheering them on, and reminding them that their biggest limitation is often the story they’ve told themselves. And yes… I’m probably going to make you laugh while I make you work. 😉”
When asked why health is important to her, Mrs Karol responded that she refuses to sit on the sidelines! She wants to be strong, capable, independent, and ready for whatever life throws at her! - including keeping up with my future grandbaby! 😂 “To me, fitness isn’t about chasing a number on a scale or trying to look 25 again. It’s about having the strength and energy to LIVE at 63, 73, and beyond. I’m not trying to turn back the clock—I’m trying to make sure I’m still kicking ass when it catches up with me. 💪🔥”
Mrs. Karol is a patient, empathetic coach but she’s not afraid to get you out of your comfort zone and onto the next level! She’s also not afraid to call you out and tell you when you have ugly reps 🙃
We are beyond blessed to have her smiling face and wise words here at Iron Boot! If this isn’t goals for 63, what is!?
