🏈MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: MEET DOM!🏈
If you’ve met Dom, you already know he brings some serious energy to Calypso. But there’s a LOT more to this guy than what you see in the gym.
Dom is a business owner, former dolphin trainer and marine mammal educator, and studied Vet-Med/Animal Science at the U of M. Oh, and he also played professional football for the Indianapolis Colts and NFL Europa with the Berlin Thunder 🪓 and Frankfurt Galaxy 🌌
He found his way to CrossFit Calypso at the end of February 2025 after meeting the one and only Kiel & Jenny Bormann in the sauna at LifeTime. His buddy Dustin from Cincinnati was also looking great doing CrossFit, which helped spark his interest.
His current CrossFit nemeses?
Muscle-ups and handstand walks.
He can’t do either… YET.
Dom’s goals are all about the long game: improving his movement, fitness and physique, competing in some smaller competitions, chasing the big dawgs in WODs, taking on Hero WODs—and, in his own words, “I will never be a Fat Ass Dad again.”
And here’s a pretty cool family fact: his youngest brother, Jericho Sims, plays in the NBA and had a triple-double this season with the Milwaukee Bucks. 🏀
Also, Dom is the 2nd shortest of five brothers… at 6’2”.
We’re pumped to have you as part of the Calypso crew, Dom. Keep chasing those goals—and we’ll see you when you finally get that muscle-up🙌🏻
