Going to the Gym to Gain.

This is my good friend Mary. She texted me last week to submit herself for my awesome page. As such, she gets a prize, cause she's the first....not sure what, but something. lol

Mary Crossfits the hell out of Crossfit. It's a challenging regime and Mary has been killing it. She also has a demanding job, a busy social life and an awesome loving family, whom I personally feel honoured to know and call friends.

"Not a beautiful pic, but it makes the point after doing Crossfit for 8 months. I've lost inches but not lbs and I feel great...in the pic I'm dead lifting 225lbs, a personal best. I think its a powerful and positive message to share...it can be scary going to the gym where everyone has six packs and can do things you only see in YouTube videos, plus being able to do the same exercises as 20 year olds."

Well Mary, I think it is a beautiful pic, it also sends a message to so many people who go to the gym solely to lose, as opposed to gaining. Give me gaining confidence, a sense of accomplishment and super strength any day!

Many thanks Mary!!!
