Meet member Cody 2.0

When he is not incognito he’s wearing short shorts!

Name: Cody Phillips aka. Cody Bear aka: 2.0

Age: 26

Occupation: Jedi Padawan

Previous workout/exercise history before starting CrossFit? I played sports in high school. Was an amateur Kickboxer for a while as well as the usual weights and running.

CrossFitting Since: March 2012

How did you learn about CrossFit Sting? Drove past the gym while test driving a car and thought “Hey, local box so I can start back at crossfit. I’ll look them up later.” (We are glad you did and I am glad you lost the headphones after that first WOD, well until that bitch Fran and Murph rolled around.)

Was it love at first WOD? Heck yea! My first WOD was self led in a weight room full of Italians, Turkish, and Germans who were all staring at me like a moron as I jumped from machine to machine. I was smoked after a 10 minute workout and fell in love. (What 2.0 probably forgot to leave out was that he might have had a puking episode after the workout too!? If that happens it usually gets better…..Cody, we are still waiting and in the mean time you know where the bucket, mop, and the water are located.)

Favorite WOD or movements? All Gymnastic movements or Olympic lifts. Favorite WOD is Diane.

Least favorite WOD or Movements? Stuff for tall people. Box jumps, wall balls, or running. GHD Back Extensions turn my legs to rubber too.

Favorite CrossFit Sting moment? Describe your experience here. Getting my first ring muscle up! It’s been great here. Everyone is friendly and with no ego’s running around everyone gets along and keeps the environment positive. Negative energy is debilitating for exercise. (2.0 might be one of the guys whose name is all over the leader board but he never fails to cheer on that last athlete to finish and offer advice and help. Nice job. Signed, Yoda (aka as Jedi Grand Master!)

Why do you CrossFit? It’s the type of fitness I love and need for what I do with the military.

Tell us something new about you that we don’t already know? I do Kermit the Frog and Cookie Monster impressions for my son. (Impression soon coming to a CF box near you.)

Cannot recommend this place more, we were new to CrossFit and found this gym very welcoming. The coaches are fantastic and helped me learn build my CrossFit foundation. The members are kind and super supportive. This gym and the workouts quickly became our favorite part of the day. At the same time, the workouts are challenging and fun! Look no further for a good workout in the area.

Dropped in for a few classes during the holidays and was very happy I chose to come to Crossfit Sting. Danielle was a great coach as well as very responsive and flexible with scheduling a drop in. I would highly recommend to any crossfiters in the area or travelling through.

After doing crossfit at two other gyms (one box since it opened seven years ago), it was hard to start anew. What has impressed me most about CF Sting is the varied workouts, particularly the movements in the "Skill and Strength." To be honest, some of the movements were ones I rarely did or was not as skilled in. Danielle always has a modification ready so all levels can do the workout. After 5-6 months, I can already see changes in my body and even if the workout looks intimidating, I do not let that stop me from "cherry-picking"--I know that Danielle will work with me, and I am improving at my own pace. Thank you!

I was in town for work and dropped in at Crossfit Sting and immediately felt comfortable there. Danielle is a great coach and leader of her gym. Workouts are well programmed and executed. There is plenty of room at the gym and ample equipment! I would drop in again! Thanks Danielle and Crossfit Sting.
