What is your previous workout/athletic background? Played school, club and national volleyball for 10 years.

What was your first experience at CrossFit Cayman?  I signed up on a Saturday morning and walked in for the 5:30 am class on a Monday in May 2022.  I immediately felt at home and never turned back after :)

What results have you seen since CrossFitting? Increased my strength and energy levels and of course lost some much needed pounds :) 

What do you do to get yourself through a tough workout (mental thoughts, tips and tricks, etc.)?   Focus on one movement at a time and pace myself.  Talk to myself (it won't get done by itself, you need to move) and think about my fitness goal

What's your favorite aspect about working out at CrossFit Cayman? The community is always the greatest pull, CrossFit Cayman has made me like home, people are warm and welcoming and I feel a sense of belonging.

What advice do you have for someone thinking about joining CrossFit Cayman?  Just do it, don't overthink it.  You don't need to be able to do everything perfectly, there's a version for everyone and it really is you against yourself!  Don't compare your progress with anyone else's, it will take time and effort but it is worth it!
