JENNIFER

Prior to joining CrossFit Central our family had just gone through a couple big moves in a couple years. There is a lot of stress that can come with big change. I was looking for a gym and joined CrossFit Central in the fall of 2022, and the 8:30 group was so friendly that I kept coming back again and again.

CrossFit class is a place were I have to focus on the movements (and counting them!) so I can’t be concerned with outside worries for at least that part of my day. I really have to stay focused on what I am doing in class. 



Since joining the gym I feel stronger than I have in years. I’m also able to power through other things in life easier because I know that if I keep working on things, I will be able to keep improving just like I have in CrossFit. If I can do a pull-up I can do anything. 



CrossFit Central is how I start my day on the right foot, get those endorphins pumping, get a good sweat going, and see all my gym friends before tackling the day. I have always loved working out, but the varied classes of CrossFit make working out so much more fun. The fact that skills are constantly improving is such a motivator. I hadn’t done strength work in decades. Back then, it was rarer for other women to be in the gym. There was a concern about being too muscular or getting bulky. Now there are so many women doing CrossFit and that is really great to see!
