Trenton has been a member with us for about two years now and has seen some awesome results. He makes time for the gym three or four days a week at least, all while working shift work as an operator. He is young but he knows what hard work is and it is paying off for him big time. Congrats on everything Trenton! Keep up the good work!

Tell us about your sports & fitness background?
I Played Little League Baseball when I was younger, and then in High School, I did Marching Band.

 

How did you first get exposed to CrossFit? Take us back to your first WOD…what was it, and how did it feel?
I got exposed to CrossFit by way of my older Brother and Coach Jamie T. They brought me to my first WOD and although I don’t remember what was in the WOD I do remember I was pretty much dead afterward.

 

What sort of changes have you seen in your body, health, and fitness since starting CrossFit? (before/after)
I lost a good amount of weight after joining CrossFit and with that my energy levels have gone up, I don’t get as winded as I used to do tasks

 

What sort of changes in your life have you experienced out of taking on something like CrossFit that were unexpected?
One of the biggest for me was how much I started enjoying going to the gym before CrossFit I never wanted to step foot in one and even after I started I didn’t exactly think I was going to stay, but it really has become like an addiction that I look forward to every time I come in!

 

Please share with us any favorite CrossFit/BayWay CrossFit moments?
My favorite moments with Bayway have to be when we do group WODs or group parties! The sense of community you get at Bayway is amazing you do become a family with the other gym members!

 

Any advice for people just getting started?
Stick with it! It’s going to be hard, and I promise it does get easier and it becomes fun! The more your body starts to change and the movements you learn, your workouts become more fun and exciting.

 

What are your hobbies, interests, and talents outside of CrossFit?

The main hobby I do outside of CrossFit is Travel. It is one of the most amazing things to do. Get out and see as much as you can!
