I was always into fitness, one type or another but fell off the wagon for a few years. My son Niko started CrossFit in 2016 and came home all excited for me to join him. I never did weight lifting before and didn’t really like the Gym life – I found it to be boring …
I first walked into Crossfit 12 12 12 on May 30th 2013 to the workout “Murph” . I was placed in a team of 4 to share the workload except for the two one mile runs. In just under an hour I had completed my first Crossfit WOD out of breath but not defeated. Then …

If I can do Crossfit, believe me when I say, anyone can do Crossfit. I started Crossfit in August 2014 after saying I was going to give it a try for months before. I had a goal to get fit and toned after having 3 children in 6 years but I really had no idea …

It all started with a desire to run. In 2012 I joined a running club when people started telling me I have the ability to run. However, by 2013 I started to feel stagnant. I wanted more and wasn’t getting it in that club. In 2015, I met a young lady by the name of Dallison …
“CROSSFIT trains you for Life”, these were the first words from the coach at Crossfit 12-12-12 and I thought, how the hell could exercise equate to life? Then I tried it. Crossfit not only trains your body, it instantaneously reprograms your mind. I realised that simple actions like bending, lifting, carrying shopping bags – I …
Having never experienced any formal gym training, starting from scratch with Crossfit was an intimidating prospect. Being initially dragged by my brother to CrossFit 12-12-12, I’m grateful to be a member today. When I first joined, I was the epitome of physical weakness; I struggled to lift the lightest weight, could barely run a few …
There I was minding my own business, enjoying my Rev class… In runs a group of people I didn’t really know, looking “half dead”. The group had just run from Las Cuevas to The Oval – WOW!! I wondered if I could ever do that! Dial back a year. I was on a …
I thought I knew what to expect when I arrived for my first day at Crossfit 12-12-12. After all, though I was new to the gym, I’d been doing Crossfit in the United States for several years.

In 2010 I was in a mess physically. I had been previously 200 pounds and admittedly I lost some of the weight very badly. I starved myself, eating like a rabbit and like so many other women I concentrated only on cardio and feared weights. I ran my life away- literally, spending hours on a …
What CrossFit means to me. My story is not unique. In fact, it’s quite boring. I wasn’t plagued with illness, obese, crippled, depressed or suffering with an eating disorder. In fact, when I discovered CrossFit, I was just bored! I was an open water long-distance swimmer who was fed up with swimming up and down a pool …
