Three Years and Counting: My Journey as a Fitness Coach

Hey there! Three years and counting – that’s how long I’ve been coaching and helping people reach their fitness goals. I gotta tell you, it’s been an amazing journey so far. Growing up, I was always into sports and fitness, and I’ve been doing CrossFit for nine years now. And let me tell you, CrossFit is life-changing! It can make people happy, healthy, and confident. That’s why I decided to become a coach – to help people experience the change that CrossFit can bring. TBH, it’s inspiring to see how fitness impacts people’s lives, and I love being a part of their journey.
