What made you choose CrossFit True?
CrossfitTrue is my first ever gym. I never thought I would even touch a barbell as I was under an assumption that it is very heavy and could hurt myself when I work out with them. Thanks to my friend (from another gym) who referred me to CrossFit. I saw his videos and thought I can give it a try.

When you’re not at the gym, what do you do for work? What do you do for fun?

What about your favorite workout?
Never a dull day at the gym and I like almost all workouts but I like it when there is a bit of running/rowing and box jumps.

Music is another incentive to work out in the gym. I missed it while working out from home during the pandemic. (I like it when volume is high though)
