My Fitness Journey

Like most, I was an athlete in high school and went away to college, and quickly became busy with life.  Little did I know that I wasn’t busy at all.  The busy started in reality as I held a full time job/career with 3 small kids.  As a nurse for Merck I began putting myself last on the priority list as moms often do.  After I had Madi I decided to start doing something for myself – working out. I started slowly at the rec center taking group fitness classes.  I counted myself lucky to have found a group of ladies that held me accountable and encouraged me.  Next thing I knew we had all signed up for a sprint triathlon.  One race led to another, and before I knew it I was running half marathons.

All the while I had known about CrossFit through my cousin who was a CF-L1 in the early years of CF. CrossFit was something I always longed to try, but there was a little voice inside me that said it was going to be too hard.  That voice won for much too long.  One day I finally faced my fear, told that voice to shut up, and walked through the doors of CFU by myself.  I even remember my first workout – Tabata.  I couldn’t walk for a week.

You can say the rest is history.  I not only fell in love with CrossFit and the CF community, but also discovered powerlifting and strongman.  I love the confidence that people gain through CrossFit – doing things they never thought they could do. It’s been great, and I’ve never looked back.

Fitness Journey

From a very young age, Rob has developed a love for competition and camaraderie. After nearly 40 years of participating in or coaching seven different sports, he still has the desire to compete in everything he does. In 2015 his daughter, Jessica, became an intern at Unbreakable Athletics Academy. She knew Crossfit was the perfect challenge for him and convinced Rob to give it a try during the summer of 2015. She was right! Crossfit has provided Rob with all the same opportunities for competitiveness and camaraderie that team sports have offered him. Combining both of those with his love for fitness was a perfect blend.

In early 2017 Rob was given a chance to coach at UAA, and after briefly thinking about it, he knew he couldn’t pass up an occasion to work with like-minded people. He has a never-quit attitude that becomes contagious. It’s his positive attitude toward goal achievement and his enthusiasm for fitness and a healthy lifestyle that Rob wants to share with others.

In July 2017 Rob was given another opportunity – to work with young athletes on the Unbreakable Sports Performance team. He believes that through personal integrity, discipline, and dedication any athlete can attain his or her goal.

He wants to thank his wife, daughter, and parents for inspiring him and for showing him that hard work pays off. He also wants to thank his crossfit friends for pushing him throughout every workout.
