MEET CHRIS
How long have you been working out?
I’ve been doing CrossFit for about a year. Working out in general since high school.
What has been your favorite workout and what is your favorite movement?
I don’t remember any favorite workouts. I do enjoy squats.
What has been your least favorite workout and movement?
Overhead squats are one of my least favorite movements.
What is your drive that makes you want to be healthy and fit?
I want to live a long active life. Although challenging, working out helps me more fully enjoy other aspects of my life.
Where are you from? Where do you live now?
I was born in southern California and grew up in Wisconsin.
What is or was your occupation?
I am an emergency/trauma nurse in the Air Force.
If you could be any superhero, who would you be and why?
Spider-man because he’s smart, has a good moral compass, agile, strong, and looks cool.
What is your favorite hobby outside of the gym?
Hanging out with my family.
If you won the lottery, what would you do with your winnings?
Depending on the amount, I would buy land in northern Wisconsin and somewhere in Central America (probably Costa Rica), build a main house for the family in both locations and some mini-houses to rent out. Invest the rest.
If someone was on the fence about joining the gym, what words of encouragement would you give them?
This isn’t a solo journey and it’s not a sprint. There is a great community at our gym. Show up and work hard and the progress will come.
Is there anything else you'd like to add or share with the other members?
Thank you for tolerating me.
