MEET THE COACHES!!
When you walk into Reveille, we want you to be familiar with the ones who are going to help you in your journey. Next up- Coach Gus, our badass “old man” 😉 and gymnastics guru!!
I started CrossFit when I was 49 years old… I was 50lbs overweight, I could not do a pull up, push up,
and my belly was so big that I couldn’t sit all the way up when I did sit ups. I loved CrossFit, and once I started I never looked back! I had a heart attack ”event” doing a CrossFit workout (Helen) when I was 52 years old and CrossFit is what saved my life. Had I not started when I did, my heart would have been too weak to recover, or so say the doctors. After that, my life took a few twists and turns, and my 40 year coaching adventure in gymnastics was coming to an end. I retired and sold my gymnastics school. I got my Level 1 certification and now hold my Level 2. Coaching is part of me, and I love it! My favorite part is when I get to add value to an athlete’s day, not always fitness related… but mostly. I compete in CrossFit as well, making it to the CrossFit Games 5 times. I hope to make it to a few more! I love the process more than the competition, it gives me a reason to act like a kid again. My favorite part of CrossFit is the diversity… I’m never bored with the training and love the gymnastics… not as much a fan of the ergs and running… but that’s part of the journey, so I live into it. Crossfit Reveille is home to me and this community adds value to my life!
