These 5 fire breathers were bitten by the CrossFit bug long ago and it is an absolute pleasure training all of these guys because you know when they turn up they are there to throw down, it doesn’t matter if it is in class or at boot camp. Mark has been a regular member of 6am classes since day one while Letty and the kids have been training in my boot camps for the past many years:) It is fantastic to see how highly this family rates health and fitness as an integral part of their day to day lives. You can easily tell too as all five of them are super fit and healthy and even though I am sure the kids aren’t always keen on a 6am session they still turn up ready to train. Any coach dream of members like you because you work hard and you listen to the coaches because you are always there to learn and get better.
Mark has always been good for some banter but he is rarely on the receiving end of it as he regularly cleans the floor with the 6am crew haha. When I first started training Letty I could barely get her to string a sentence together but as she has become fitter and stronger and gotten closer to more of the other members her confidence has grown and she has definitely opened up a lot more, she always has a joke or cheeky comment for the rest of us to lighten the mood before a hard boot camp session.
Im sure the three boys can be a handful at times but it is great to see how far they have come and how much they have matured over the course of the time I have known them. They are all super smart and are getting more and more athletic every time I see them. Arvan, jack and Heath you have all got bright futures ahead of you, just go for it and remember it doesn’t matter if you don’t get it right the first time. There will always be someone there to help you through if you need it. Nothing good in life comes easy so work hard for what you want.
Looking forward to many more sessions in your company team:)
