Tell us a little about yourself?
We are both Texas natives and we moved to West Virginia in September 2018. We’ve been married for almost 3 years and recently had our baby boy, Whitten, in March. We joined the gym February 2019 and have been loving it ever since!
What is your most memorable CrossFit experience?
Rebekah: My most memorable experience so far was completing a rope climb at 38 weeks pregnant!
Zac: I was able to place 2nd in Revved Up CrossFit’s first annual Thunder in the Valley in-box competition.
Why did you try CrossFit?
The gym was offering a month trial for non-members and a great group of members recommended we try it out. It was low-risk and we knew we wanted to join a gym, so we gave it a try.
What has been your biggest challenge or improvement?
Rebekah: I have learned to continue growing as an athlete without comparing myself to others in the class.
Zac: Sometimes my height can be a challenge with certain movements.
What is your favorite workout?
Rebekah: Snatch
Zac: Clean and jerk
What advice would you give a new member?
Don’t be afraid to break out of your comfort zone. CrossFit can be intimidating, but the knowledge and strength you gain will help you reach your health and fitness goals. Also, invest in the community it offers. That has been the best part of our Revved Up experience!
