Box Brief:
Congrats to Cheryl for being the May Member of the Month at Apollo! Scroll down to learn more about Cheryl.
Congratulations on being the April Member of the Month! So often we find ourselves coming to the same class and seeing the same people. You’re an awesome person and we can’t wait to highlight you to the community as a whole. Let’s kick off the questions!
How long have you been doing CrossFit? What keeps you coming back for more?
I’ve been doing Crossfit for over 8 years, starting when I lived in NJ. What keeps me coming back is the variety of the workouts and the supportive people you get to meet while doing it.
We all remember what it was like to be new to CrossFit. What advice would you give to someone new to this training style?
That we all remember what it was like to be new to Crossfit – it’s okay to be nervous, it’s okay to be ‘last’ in the workout, and it’s okay to ask questions.
We know you’ve lived in several different locations over the years. What area has been your favorite and why?
I enjoyed my time living in Philly – it’s a walkable city and has a lot of the things that I enjoy readily available: good food, art, and music.
What is one thing most people at the gym wouldn’t know about you?
My first tattoo is of a Shel Silverstein drawing from his books of poetry I used to read as a kid.
If you had to make your perfect CrossFit workout, what would it be? Choose your answer carefully Haha.
Jump rope (usually SU), heavy low rep power cleans, and KBS. I prefer AMRAPs or workout with a time cap.
This is one of our favorite questions to ask. If you could sit down with any person in the world past or present, who would it be and why?
Stephen King, he’s always been one of my favorite and go-to authors since I got into reading when I was younger.
