I started CrossFit in 2009, went through basic intro class, did my first workout and was immediately addicted. For me the number one reason I do CrossFit is, competition. Growing up Iʻd spend 3-5 hours in a basketball gym working to get better at the sport. After high school Iʻd still spend the time but there was no real reason to keep doing so. When I found CrossFit I was able to transfer that love and work ethic I had for basketball to this new found sport. I found that it instills a sense of wanting to be better not only in competition or in the gym but also at work, in school, and in life. I have also gotten my wife and daughter to start CrossFit, which really gives us something we can all do together and talk about. Next will be our 2 year old daughter, so she can grow up living a healthy/active lifestyle. CrossFit will continue to change and be a part of our lives.
