No performance history
I have been training for 25+ years. At first, it was solely for sports, football and track. I played college football and ran track. After college I played 2 years of arena football. I got cut after that 2nd year and I was just done with it. By that time I was addicted to training but I had nothing to train for, so I just meathead lifted to see how strong I could get. I felt like I was just wasting my life and I was missing something. I decided to join the Army, because of that feeling. I signed an infantry contract and went off to basic. While I was in, I broke my back at Ranger School by falling down a mountain. I didn't know that at the time, so I got up and kept going. Needless to say it didn't heal great. After Ranger School is when I started Crossfit. I started Crossfit because I missed competing and I saw it had a lot of recovery stuff in the programming. That really helped my back and I got to compete. I got stationed at Ft. Carson and I joined Progressive Fitness Crossfit. I was trained by Beth and Chris Hoppe. I was primed to start doing very well in the open because of the guidance those two gave me. Unfortunately, I ran into the roughest part of my life. I found out I had no cartilage in my knee, I had a pulmonary embolism, I found out I had 5 herniated disc, found out my back didn't heal right, and I had a appendicitis. Right before the open that I was primed for is when I had my PE... I was heart broken because of the work I put in just to have it ripped away. I did the open anyways but I had to be very careful to not get my heart rate too high. I got out of the Army in 2015 and the place I moved back to didn't have a crossfit gym. I trained at a local gym until I built my garage gym. The last open I did I drove up to San Antonio to get judged at Lonestar Crossfit and I did very well in my age group. I had the flu the first two weeks of that open but I was able to push through my 103 temp and pull out top 200. I couldn't get up to San Antonio to do the qualifier. That was the last open I did because I just don't have the time to get up to a gym and I don't have the money to buy a 1000 dollar rower to be able to do the open every year. Now I just train hard and I train two girls that I'm talking into completing because they are beastly.
