Athlete Profile

Athlete Profile – Hannah!

Name: Hannah

Age: 35

Occupation: Preschool teacher

Previous workout/exercise history before starting CrossFit? I did circuit training for about a year then tried it on my own at a large gym. I was going about 3-4 times a week but didn’t see much progress.

CrossFitting Since: I started in Jan of 2015

How did you learn about CrossFit Sting? My boss/friend told me about it and talked me into going.

Was it love at first WOD? Yes it was! I love to lift weight but not a big fan of cardio and for me this is a great combination of the two.

Favorite WOD or movements? I love EMOTM!!! (That mean Evey Minute on the Minute) Love deadlifts, power cleans, over head squats

Least favorite WOD or Movements? Hate burpees!!! (Make that ALL types of burees, right?)

Favorite CrossFit Sting moment? Describe your experience here.
The moment you think you can’t do something and then everyone is cheering you on and your coaches are telling you that you can! This was squat cleans for me and my last PR was 105, I knew I could do more just had to remember to squat under the bar. After multiple attempts and extra coaching I finally got 115lb!!! I was sooo excited.

Why do you CrossFit? I love it! It pushes me to do more. I always leave feeling like I’ve had the best workout. I’m seeing results in my body that I’ve wanted for a long time and I love my crossfit family! And it’s fun!!!

Tell us something new about you that we don’t already know? Over the past couple of years I have struggled with finding myself and being happy again. After 3 kids and a divorce my weight has been on a roller coaster ride along with my self esteem. Finding crossfit has been the best thing for me. I have found my happy place, my balance in life, and my body is on its way to being what I want it to be. I’m a happier and healthier person for my kids and myself.

Love all of this and we are so happy that you have found CrossFit Sting. Your last statement is what it is ALL about, “I’m a happier and healthier person for my kids and myself.”

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.
