PARO UPPAR – June 2024
Huge shout out to Paro! This girl has made gains! She is dedicated and works so hard. And always walks through our door with a big smile. We are incredibly happy to have her with us at CFBR.
“MY CROSSFIT JOURNEY
I started my CrossFit journey in January 2023, and it’s been an incredible 1.5 years so far! I began with 2 days a week and have since increased my frequency to 4 days a week, driven by my passion for the sport and the progress I’ve made.
FROM SOLO GYM SESSIONS TO CROSSFIT WORKOUTS
Before CrossFit, I used to work out alone in a regular gym without a trainer. I would often find myself stuck in a routine, doing the same exercises without learning anything new or challenging myself. I even hurt my knees from repetitive treadmill running!
A LIFE-CHANGING DECISION
My friend suggested I try CrossFit, and I’m so glad I took the leap! Joining CrossFit Big Rock has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. I now look forward to our workouts, excited to see what challenges await me and to work out with my CrossFit friends.
PROGRESS AND ACHIEVEMENTS
Over the past 1.5 years, I’ve learned various weight training exercises, cardio exercises, and how to scale exercises, gradually increasing my weight. I feel confident and proud of my progress. Our exceptional coaches provide guidance on technique, posture correction, and motivation, understanding our strengths and weaknesses and helping us push beyond our limits.
THE CROSSFIT COMMUNITY
The CrossFit Big Rock community is super cool, fun, supportive, and incredibly friendly! I’ve loved our get-togethers and participating in my first Open 2024 was an unforgettable experience!”
ANAYA & DREW STOUT – May 2024
Rock star couple right here! Anaya and Drew have been solid members with us for years now. They are dedicated to their fitness, have great work ethic, are huge supporters to everyone, and are so much fun to workout alongside. We love you two!!!
“Our CrossFit journey started in Colorado in 2012, where we enjoyed flipping tractor tires, doing super tall box jumps, and lifting heavy. Despite interruptions due to parenthood and moving states, we continued our fitness journey, training at home and then at another crossfit gym in South Seattle, before settling in Duvall. We keep coming back to Crossfit because the workouts are hard as hell and the community feels like family. We love our Big Rock family and can’t imagine how any other gyms could come close to the community we’ve found here.”
ERIN BLAKE – February 2024
Shout out to one of our favorites! Erin started with us a couple years back and then shortly after joined our coaching staff. One word to describe Erin is… tough! This girl works hard. She’s got grit. She’s got determination. No fear. And man is this mama strong! We luv ya Erin, thank you for all you do for us at Big Rock!
“CrossFit Big Rock has been my go-to spot for nearly two years now, and let me tell you, it’s like my second home! What keeps me hooked? It’s not just the killer workouts; it’s the kickass community that welcomes me with open arms every single day. There’s something about seeing folks hustle and bustle, pushing themselves to the limit, that lights a fire in me. CrossFit isn’t just about pumping iron; it’s a mental and physical grind that keeps me coming back for more. No matter where you’re at in your journey, there’s always room to level up, and that’s what I love about this place. CrossFit Big Rock isn’t just a gym; it’s where I come to sweat, laugh, challenge myself, and help others unleash their inner beasts.”
