Prism CrossFit Gym in Leander and CrossFit Gym in Cedar Park Texas Coach Jason
I started CrossFit Gym in Cedar Park on December 24th, 2012. I had just recently finished the last football game of my senior year (and my career) and was looking for something to help me get in better shape. My first workout was the filthy fifty, which if you’ve done this workout, you know it is not favorable for a bigger guy. Needless to say I finished in what felt like hours, but was instantly hooked.
I began attending CrossFit Gym in Leander classes 5-6 times a week while also changing my diet to a modified paleo fashion. After only a couple of months, I lost 35 pounds. Unexpectedly, I was also getting stronger at the same time. My cardiovascular endurance developed to where it was miles ahead of where I started. CrossFit showed me how hard I can really push my body, and how to overcome my mental limitations.
After realizing how much CrossFit Kids in Leander helped me, I couldn’t wait to bring everyone I knew to the gym. It was while helping one of my friends with some technique before a workout that I realized how much I enjoyed helping people. This is what let me to become a CrossFit Level 1 Trainer in May of 2014. That same summer, I began to work more on Olympic lifting which I had grown fond of. I was lucky enough to train under the close eye of Ursula Garza Papandrea who is commonly referred to as the “Queen of Olympic Weightlifting”.
With the knowledge that I learned from my level 1 course and from Ursula, I am excited to help guide people in the direction that they want to go when they dive into the wonderful world of CrossFit in Cedar Park. for more info check out www.prismcrossfit.com
