Testimonials/Athlete of the Month
"Through CrossFit I have been able to understand just what a leader can do for individuals. Not only does our coach embody what CrossFit is, but he constantly empowers us through uplifting articles, motivational chants throughout the workout and overall he empowers us through his own personal reflections of himself. He constantly drives himself to not only be a better CrossFitter, but coach. He continues his education in order to provide us with better knowledge; his drive to be better encourages the drive within ourselves. We could walk into class and be to what to do and do it, but the constant gift of motivation and knowledge he relinquishes to us keeps us coming back. It keeps us on our toes and challenges us to make goals and break goals. It teaches us that failure is an option, even though not desirable it happens, but we must learn and grow from it"

"CrossFit has changed my life in many ways and become an essential part of my life. I feel strongier and healthier than I have ever been. The support that I get from my fellow CrossFitters is great and the support and encouragement from my coaches has been exceptional. It is with the help of my coaches that I can lift more than I ever have. Mentally I am stronger and physically I am both stronger and I look better than I ever have."

"The level of instruction for Southern Maryland Crossfit is exceptional. The passion and dedication demonstrated by our coaches, through rehearsal and practice has allowed me to reach a level of fitness that I felt was unattainable before joining the class. My confidence, determination, and stamina have all increased thanks to the professional and encouraging coaching I have received. The Southern Maryland Crossfit environment has allowed me to overcome negative behaviors by encouraging, coaching and mentoring me to reach higher levels of dedication toward mastering the skills necessary to reach my personal goals among the Crossfit skills and WOD’s. The coaching regarding nutrition is informative and offers attainable meal alternatives to reach individual goals and desires while reducing other health related risk.
Generally, one of the last things I do before bed or one of the first things I do in the morning is look at the WOD for our next class. My day is planned around arriving to the gym to prepare for our work out. Had I not become a member of Southern Maryland Crossfit, I may have stopped coming to the gym on a regular basis. However, I feel that our coaches care about our successes and are willing to help us through our failures, to reach the highest levels of fitness possible based on our particular capabilities."
