What made you decide to try CrossFit?

I decided to try CrossFit because it looked like fun!! I’ve heard so much about it but couldn’t drive 45 mins to a gym to try it, until ELC opened. I love to lift weights and CrossFit seemed to mix everything into one for a great overall work out

What is your favorite part about Empowered Living Company?

My favorite part about ELC is seriously the people. I know everyone says that but seriously ITS TRUE!! You could be having a bad day and the moment you step in that gym you forget about your bad day. The killer workout is just extra!!  Also love that every day the workout is something different!

What’s your favorite movement, lift or workout?

My favorite lifts are deadlifts, cleans and push press. My favorite workout has to be the Murph- it’s just an awesome accomplishment and a great way to honor an American hero. It’s also kind of a tradition my son and I do together now.

What’s one milestone you’re most proud of so far?

Participating in ELC games 1, it actually felt like you were competing in the CrossFit Games. It was intense and so much fun

What are some unexpected benefits you’ve experienced since starting?

A better me for myself and my family!! I feel stronger physically and mentally

What is your next goal you plan to crush?

Oh of course Pull ups!!

What advice would you give someone walking through the Empowered Living Company door for the first time?
Just walk through those doors!! The coaches will not let you fail and don’t be intimidated by the lift names-you’ll get it! And once you get through those doors you will be hooked!!
