I’ve always been fairly athletic (soccer, Triathlons, weight training, etc), but I have never considered myself an elite athlete. I am intellectually curious, but I am rarely the smartest guy in the room. Towards the end of my time in the Navy and after returning from Iraq, Brian kept hounding me to do CrossFit. I was skeptical, as I tend to be. It seemed like it was a little bit of smoke and mirrors – how could workouts so brief possibly train you for much longer endeavors? I first gave CrossFit a chance as a way to conserve time while working out (editor’s note: opening a business in something you are interested in is not a way to “save time”). Since then, my perspective on CrossFit has completely changed. Bottom line, it works. I am in the best shape of my life. No caveats. I no longer dread workouts – I savor them. The diversity of the CrossFit program has me constantly learning (and being humbled), which I love. Potomac CrossFit has been open since August 2008 and the rapid fitness success that we’ve experienced with our clients and fellow CrossFitters is a testament to the CrossFit program and the excellent people we have here at Potomac CrossFit.
