CrossFit level 1, Olympic and Gymnastic certified. Attending Power lifiting, Strongman and Football certs this summer.
This fabulous gym was started back in 2002 without one piece of equipment and has continued on the stellar path of finding the perfect way to churn out amazingly functional people who love life and exercise daily with one another for fun with their friends.
I will continue to work hard each and every single day so you walk in and out of this gym never thinking that it is just a workout, or a thing you have to do but a fun way of life.
It is fun, it is community, it is social, it is functional, it is a better way to live your life.
Did I mention we've churned out Male, Female and Masters CrossFit Games athletes including a champion? We've had numerous regional level competitors and we plan on taking an amazing affiliate team to the games this year!
I'm also a husband of 8 years and Father of three amazing kids (almost 2, 4 and 6 years) which makes the gym that more special because I know what really is important in life.
Keith Simon-CrossFit level I trainer and CF Olympic lifting, B.S. Exercise Science, and CPT as well as our nutrition consultant
2011 CrossFit Central East Regional Qualifier
Keith is in love with Olympic lifting and power lifting but is such a great trainer because he knows no matter how strong or how perfect your form is you are only as good as your weakest link. Keith spends hour upon hour helping get our clients as dialed in with their exercise as he does with their nutrition.
He takes pride not only in his 300+lb clean and jerk but also in his ability to transform peoples bodies and lives.
Keith was born to be that trainer that does and says whatever he needs to in order to make you the best you can be. Feel lucky to be trained by him, there aren't many better than him and I don't mean here, I mean in the world.
Joe Snider-Fitness/Baseball trainer and mobility guru.
Joe has been with us for three years now and his transformation as an athlete and coach is amazing. We are all lucky to have him here as a member of the CFNA family.
Joe has spent a ton of time working with mobility and form because he came into the program without either. With years of hard work under his belt he has some great experience understanding where you are coming from and what you need to do to be your best.
Joe has traveled the country playing baseball and exploring fitness and has spent the last few years working with every level imaginable which makes him amazing at catering to each level member that walks through our doors.
Feel lucky to go through one of Joe's CF, Lite and or Kids classes.
Matt Wilson-Fitness/Baseball trainer
CrossFit level I, CF Kids, CF Gymnastics and CF Olympic lifting certified
Matt is the resident good guy. You wont meet a nicer person, more patient person than Matt which makes him an amazing trainer for the highest and lowest levels of fitness. Matt takes pride in doing everything right, doing exactly what needs to be done to get the job done which makes for a great trainer and employee.
Matt like most people came into the program with doing the normal workouts and has turned himself into an amazing CrossFitter!
He may kill you with kindness, but in the end you'll be in amazing shape!
Scott Tourville-Fitness/Baseball trainer
His fun demeanor makes class just that, fun! He works his butt off in class and teaching you. He gets that things are hard but he keeps it real and allows you to end class knowing that you gave it your everything and that is something to be proud of!
Dane Youtz-Fitness/Baseball trainer
2009, 2010, 2011and 2012 CrossFit Central East Regional Qualifier
Our resident BEAST, this guy can do anything and I mean anything. He may be quiet but he'll also get you to do things that you never thought possible. He may be a "scientist" by day, but he's one heck of a CrossFit trainer by night!
Balance is needed and Dane is the perfect balance to the loud Ralph and Keith. His outdoor love of working out brings us that "outside the box" input so badly needed in making our CF gym amazing.
Joe Herren-Fitness trainer and top 15 at the 2012 Central East Reebok CrossFit Regional
NAFD
We're proud to have a first responder as one of our members and coaches. This future box owner has no stop in him, he goes like no other. With a great balance between family, work and CrossFit he has been an amazing addition to CFNA over the last year.
Evan Hupp-Fitness trainer and all around cool guy set to make regionals 2013!
Rich James-CrossFit trainer
A picture is worth a thousand words! Rich lives CrossFit, you got a question just ask Rich. This guy is all about perfecting form, programming, nutrition, mobility, recovery. Rich is the guy who keeps everyone on the up and up. We're so excited about who his presence has brought and will bring to the CFNA community.
Glenn Gray-Endurance trainer and mobility guru
He is our eldest trainer meaning he has a ton more life experience! With certifications in endurance, Pose, mobility and CF L1 Glenn is a wealth of knowledge.
You wont meet a nicer guy who is more willing to help. I am super excited for him to take our Endurance program to that next level!
