I~SQ~m Matt, and I~SQ~m fairly new to the sport, I~SQ~ve only been involved in it since September of 2017. From the first class I tried, I knew there was something very different about this type of fitness. After about a month of training, I had totally ~SQ~drank the koolaid~SQ~ and was hooked. And 8 months later, my wife and I decided we needed to get our CF-L1, and own our own box. This sport is so full of the sense of community and support, the thought of going back to a corporate gym is extremely unappealing to me.</td></table>"))

In high school I competed in volleyball, basketball and track and in college I competed in cross country, basketball and track. I have always loved lifting and I continue to compete in road races and an occasional triathlon. In about 2011, one of my old teammates told me about CrossFit. Unfortunately, there was not a CrossFit affiliate in Bemidji and when browsing the CrossFit website, I felt a little intimidated. <br>Not long after, my friend invited me down to watch her compete in a CrossFit competition. It was so exciting and I knew I had to give it a go. So I started doing CrossFit at an Anytime Fitness. <br>Along with having an instant love for CrossFit, I have also always wanted to be a trainer/coach of some sort. I have coached everything from elementary to collegiate athletics and have also created workouts for family members and friends. In 2012, I decided to get my CrossFit Level 1 certification in hopes that I would one day be able to coach others in this amazing sport :) <br>Now I am training here at CrossFit Bemidji and I love it! Not only does CrossFit challenge you in every way but it is a workout program that can reach any and all levels of ~SQ~athletes~SQ~!</td></table>"))

I am a coach at CrossFit Bemidji. I love to lift weights and do gritty workouts. Grace is one of my all time favorites, with Karen being a close second. If I could just snatch and backsquat all the time I would be very happy, but I can~SQ~t so sometimes I do pullups and burpees. I am working towards a 600lb deadlift and my first strict muscle up. I train hard so everything I do in the outdoors gets easier. <br>I have been a personal trainer and a coach since 2011. I coach CrossFit, weightlifting and powerlifting with Special Olympics of Bemidji. My favorite thing about being a coach is seeing people progress and become more confident in themselves. The lightbulb moment when something clicks with an athlete is something I will never get tired of. <br> I look forward to meeting you and seeing you in the gym! <br> <br> <br> Nasm CPT, Crossfit lvl 2 ,Usaw sports performance coach, AAS Personal training/ exercise science, holistic nutrition coach SPC .

To most, I just go by Fenson. I played football in high school, and was fortunate enough to have been voted captain my senior year. Once out of high school I decided to pursue further endeavors not on the football field but on the curling ice. Curling has been a part of my life for years and years, and I am lucky enough to carry on the high level of play that my father and grandpa had brought to the game. I am very interested in the gymnastics portion of CrossFit, one of my favorite mentors I have would be Carl Paoli I try to learn as much as I can from him.</td></table>"))

I~SQ~m Melissa and I love CrossFit and weightlifting. I have been seeking health, fitness, and strength for many years, and CrossFit Bemidji truly delivers all three. However, my journey toward health and wellness began in 2009 with a wakeup call from my doctor. I was morbidly obese and at high risk for heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and several other dangerous conditions that would continue to damage my quality of life. Like many others, I blamed it on genetics and told myself there was nothing I could do to help myself. I was wrong. <br> <br>It’s taken several years and major lifestyle changes, but with the incorporation of regular physical activity and a complete nutrition overhaul, I have managed to lose nearly 200 pounds and keep it off. <br> <br>When my fitness journey began several years ago, I could barely walk to my own mailbox. Slow changes over time allowed me to gradually increase my activity and I could walk a few blocks more each day, and when I gained enough confidence and endurance, I got a gym membership. The elliptical trainer was boring, so I picked up a barbell and googled my way into strength training. I fell in love with lifting immediately, but I needed some form of cardio and I started boxing and kickboxing and I was hooked (haha - get it? hooked?). After I lost the first 100 pounds or thereabouts, I did my first ~SQ~couch to 5k~SQ~ program since I never in my life had ran a mile - even in elementary school. <br> <br>CrossFit Bemidji is special and it~SQ~s awesome: variety, challenge, inclusivity, community. Come check it out -- it incorporates everything about fitness that I love, plus at CrossFit Bemidji, there is an amazing community of people working together to be stronger everyday. <br> <br>CF-L1 <br>CF Olympic Weight Lifting</td></table>"))

I’m Tanya 😁 I’m a mom to 4 amazing kids ranging in age from 5 to 18 😬 3 boys and 1 girl. My oldest was also diagnosed with Autism when he was 3. A normal night at my house consists of nerf wars and dance parties. I also put on amazing lip syncing performances. <br> <br>I’ve tried so many different styles of fitness trying to find one that really challenged me. I did kettlebell classes, circuit training, boxing and pole fitness. I loved them all but the same thing over and over wasn’t working for me. A friend insisted I try CrossFit. With the support of a girlfriend, we went to our first class. I fell in love instantly. I’ve been with CrossFit Bemidji since Sep 2016. I love everything about it. The owners, the other trainers, the athletes.. the community of it all. It’s changed me in ways I didn’t even know were possible. The physical changes are nice but the mental strength I’ve gained is what I’ll forever be grateful for. <br> <br>At CFB, you’ll find me during open gym and running the kids classes. Training kids and helping them start a life of health and fitness is what makes me happy. A bunch of little CrossFitters, it doesn’t get any better than that 💕</td></table>"))

Ya, I was one of those haters. But guys, it’s so true! <br> <br> I grew up playing competitive sports including hockey, cross-country, track and field, softball, and anything else that I could justify wearing active wear for. I came to Bemidji, MN to play hockey, and graduated with a Physical Education degree. After hockey, I thought I could self sufficiently keep myself motivated and ‘in-shape’ with a run every now and then, and a kettlebell swing here and there. <br> <br> When I was ~SQ~working out~SQ~, I kept hearing about CrossFit from my brother Josh, and his wife, Kaylee. Try CrossFit they said.. You’ll love it they said. After about a year of giving the empty ‘sure’ response, the real change came after I met my sister-in-law’s CrossFit friends at her bachelorette party. After a fun weekend, I realized I was missing something, something that competitive sports offered.. the comradery. I finally checked out CrossFit Bemidji and the rest is history. I was instantly hooked, humbled, and the newest member of CrossFit Bemidji that same day. Being a part of a team, the daily socialization with individuals with a common goal and passion for a healthier tomorrow, and the daily chit-chat with the community that CF builds is truly next to none. <br> <br> I have been a CrossFit athlete for 3 years and now have my CF-L1 cert. I love being a part of the daily grind Crossfit offers, seeing other athletes of different ages and backgrounds have the opportunity to infinitely scale their workouts to make them be the best possible versions of themselves.</td></table>"))
