I came to CrossFit because my aunt and uncle were doing it and it sounded like a cool idea. When I walked through the door for the first time I was about to walk right back out. The thoughts going through my head ranged from “What in the crap are these people doing” to “Okay […]

After redeploying from Afghanistan in February 2014 I was in Columbus GA. I had to struggle through a lot of issues ranging from PTSD to physical problems. I was not doing well; I was always depressed or not feeling well. I figured it was the environment I was in so I decided to move to […]

I came to CrossFit at the suggestion of my friend Rebecca Mashburn. I was tired all the time and just had no desire or energy to do anything except work and go home. After several weeks of hearing how much Rebecca loved it, and noticing how her physique was changing, I decided to give CrossFit […]

My first impression was that CrossFit leaves no stone unturned. Meaning, you truly get an exercise experience that covers […]

I was introduced to CrossFit 2311 by my good friend Abbie Wilkins, who had been a member for quite some time. My first impression was that this looked way too hard for me to do. Now that I have been CrossFitting for a bit, I realize that I CAN do this! I scale when needed […]

I have always loved to exercise. In October 2011, I was in a four wheeler accident. I ended up breaking my collarbone (which needed surgery), hairline fracturing my tibia, and re-breaking my elbow (which was already in a cast).
