April Athlete of the Month: Kristina Marchetti

(Yes I know it’s already May but I forgot to post this earlier in the week 🫠)

Kristina has been at the gym since last year and brings a bubbly smile and a great attitude to every class - whether is 6am or the end of the day.

She’s a true example of the ancient proverb - “Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people don’t kill their husbands.” - Gandhi, probably

SNAPS FOR KRISTINA!!!

🚨 WARNING 🚨 CUTENESS ALERT
Meet Rory.
Rory has been coming to the gym since she was just a baby - and while she is still under a year old, she is growing into a demure and lovely young lady. (Manifestation works, right?)

What she lacks in mass, she makes up for in puppy energy and bark decibels. You can catch her most evenings either loudly cheering on the athletes or aggressively asking for the attention to be on her - we’re not sure which.

February Athlete of the Month: Jordan Dickinson

Jordan is one of the OG members at North Strong - working out with us through multiple locations, multiple owners, and countless coaches. He and his wife, Heather, are the coolest couple at the gym and always bring a great energy to class.

When he’s not building record-breaking cars, motorcycles, and airplanes (tbh I’m not sure on that last one, but it seems like something he’d be into), he’s being a a amazing family man - often with his wife and adorable daughter at the gym with him.

Cheers to Jordan ❤️❤️❤️

November Athlete of the Month: Jenn Brown

How long have you been working out at North Strong? - a little over a year now!

What motivated you to join North Strong and what keeps you coming back to classes every week? - we moved to the neighborhood so I needed a new gym! I love that I get a little social interaction with my class time- everyone is so friendly here (and the dogs). I am ok at doing cardio on my own, but need motivation for strength training, so that’s the main reason I come- to lift heavy things!

What’s your favorite CrossFit movement? - hmmm, double unders, because I am good at them.

Least favorite CrossFit movement? Rope climbs are just a nope for me.

What’s an accomplishment you’ve made in your time at North Strong you’re proud of? I am making progress and getting stronger even when I don’t realize it, just by showing up every week. I hadn’t bench pressed in ages, but when we did it last week I absolutely smashed passed the last weight I recorded!
