✨ Coach Highlight: Wendy Morse | LEO’s Fitness ✨
If you’ve ever trained at LEO’s Fitness in the early morning, you know the energy, encouragement, and strength that fills the room, and much of that comes from Coach Wendy Morse, who leads our 7:00am, 8:00am, and 8:45am classes!
Wendy brings both experience and heart to every class. She holds her CrossFit Level 1 Certification and Burgener Strength Certification, and she has been committed to fitness for decades, not just as a coach, but as a lifelong athlete. 💪🏼
Her “Why”:
For Wendy, exercise is about far more than fitness, it’s about mental and physical health. Living with diabetes for 29 years, she credits consistent exercise as a key reason she has experienced zero negative effects from the disease. Her story is living proof of how powerful movement can be.
Her Fitness Journey:
Wendy has been working out since she was 18, starting with traditional lifting and treadmill workouts. Sixteen years ago, she tried CrossFit, and never looked back. That decision changed her life and continues to shape how she coaches today.
Workout Vibes:
She’s all about upbeat music, with hip hop taking the top spot. Slow songs? Immediate skip.
Favorites & Least Favorites:
❌ Least favorite: Thrusters (no explanation needed 😅)
✅ Favorite: Toes-to-bar because she can knock out a lot of them and they don’t destroy her (win!).
Proudest Achievement:
One of Wendy’s most meaningful moments was getting her first muscle-up. After years of trying, she finally hit it, and it still stands as a reminder that persistence pays off. Sixteen years ago, she never imagined that would be possible.
Advice for Anyone Considering LEO’s Fitness:
“Just do it. You won’t be sorry.”
Wendy believes LEO’s Fitness goes far beyond the gym. The strength you build carries into everyday life, making daily tasks easier, confidence stronger, and life fuller. Add in the atmosphere, the people, and the constant encouragement, and there’s truly nothing like it.
💪 Train with Coach Wendy and experience the difference passion, experience, and community can make. 🫶🏻
