CrossFit Level 1 Trainer

USA Powerlifting-CC (Club Coach)

My name is Colin and started coaching at CrossFit Develop in July 2022. When I’m not in the box exercising or coaching, I’m working in the fire protection industry or playing club rugby. My journey with CrossFit started back in 2017. Focusing on my career throughout my 20’s, I gained a lot of weight and did not put any effort into my health. My doctor wanted to put me on high cholesterol medication and I knew it was time to make a change. I signed up for a 6-week diet challenge at a local CrossFit gym and was hooked ever since. I lost weight, gained strength, and got to avoid medication to the delight of me and my doctor. The community aspect of CrossFit is something that has kept me coming back for more, and the community at CrossFit Develop is unlike one I’ve ever been a part of. I’ve been a member at a few other gyms and can say the community and programming here is the best I’ve experienced. What I love about CrossFit is that we all have our weaknesses we get to work on, and our strengths we get to highlight. Challenging yourself physically and mentally is something that I think is very important for good health. CrossFit has taught me resilience and mental fortitude, it has taught me how to understand weaknesses and how to make positive changes, and it has taught me how to celebrate victories and strengths while staying humble. There truly is more to CrossFit than flipping tires and protein shakes 😉 – and I can’t wait to see you in the gym!
