MEMBER HIGHLIGHT
“ I came to Be Strong because I had several friends from my old gym that had recently joined. They told me good things about it, so I decided to try it.
I have definitely gained strength and better overall health since being at Be Strong. I have challenged myself through so many tough workouts, which transfers over to doing hard things in everyday life. I also need to be active to protect my mental health - the gym always puts me in a better headspace! I also have two girls who see me making the gym a priority, and it is so important for me to show them that being strong and challenging yourself is cool!
My favorite part about Be Strong is being challenged by those around me. They definitely push me to be a better athlete by encouraging me and/or going head to head with them in a WOD.
CrossFit can be very intimidating, and every single person has felt that way in the beginning. Don’t compare your beginning to someone that’s been doing it a long time. Every single thing is scaleable and modifiable, go in without your ego, and build relationships. I’m so thankful for the lifelong friends that I’ve met at the gym!
Some joining Be Strong, I’ve gained many skills, such as pull-ups, double unders, handstand pushups, and toes to bar. I’ve also had many barbell PRs and qualified for the CrossFit quarterfinals, ending the season as a level 8. “
