	Mike & Jennifer “Jennifer and I love the challenge of CrossFit, the camaraderie of the members, and we have fun competing against each other! Now that CrossFit Rockwall has CrossFit Kids, both of our daughters are part of the program. We have watched our daughters build strength and confidence, as they both have conquered the rope climb and realize fitness is fun. We are a busy family, but believe that a healthy lifestyle is important. CrossFit has helped us pursue this together as a family.” Read more...
	Amy H “I am convinced that eating Paleo and doing CrossFit were major contributors to my healthy pregnancy. Asa Austin Hadsell was born August 9, 2011 and weighed 7lbs 11oz. His diet was strict Paleo! We never had to supplement and at one month old, Asa weighed 10lbs 4oz and continues to stay Paleo! Just short of two weeks after the birth of our son, I was back to my pre-pregnancy weight (and back in my pre-pregnancy jeans)!” Read more...
	Jason “What makes the Crossfit Open great is that you don’t have to be an elite athlete to compete. People all over the world who competed were able to accomplish things they never have before and never thought were possible. Such as getting their first double-under, their first muscle-up or setting personal records on the lifts. I would encourage everybody at Crossfit Rockwall to set a goal now of trying to compete in the 2012 Open, regardless of your skill level or ability.” Read more...
	Jami “This was the most challenging thing I had ever done. I told myself I’d stick with it for a full year...now I’m hooked! I’ll be doing CrossFit until the day I die. My kids and I are all much healthier, happier people because of CrossFit. It’s one of the best life decisions I’ve made.” Read more...
	Jackie “This is one of the best life choices I have made. I have lost about 10 pounds and 2 inches. I can run again, do strict push-ups, and so much more. And with every workout I feel stronger.

	Tom “I participated in the “Eat Real” challenge weighing 213 pounds and my waist measuring in at 42 inches. Forty days later I am now 205 pounds and my waist is 39 inches.

My blood pressure in now normal and I no longer take medication.” Read more...
	Amy S “The mental confidence I have now, and not just while working out is unbelievable. I know I can accomplish so many things that I might not have started because I was tired all the time. I feel like I have returned to my old self mentally and emotionally. I’m just happier all the way around and feel more alert and mentally sharper and excited about life. I’m a better mother to my children because I have more energy and can go play with them - a lot!” Read more...
	John R “I’ve lost my 15 pounds I gained before joining CrossFit Rockwall and so far I’ve managed to shave off about 10 more... The crazy part is I spend less than half of the time working out with CrossFit as I did in the gym on my own! It is the first time I’ve ever been in a fitness environment that combines exercise, diet and mindset so well. Though the road is by no means an easy one,the rewards are well worth it, faster to reach and far easier to maintain than anything I’ve participated in before.” Read more...
	Debbie D “I not only felt like I had a personal trainer, but a group of others around me to keep me motivated. My body impressed me. I realize now that I can be stronger than I think I can be. I really look forward to the classes; they’re short but hard, and very effective. I never left the other gym feeling like I do after a CrossFit class. I’m hooked and grateful.” Read more...
	Ashley G “I started Crossfit because I was not satisfied with my body or the health of it and I was ready to try something that I knew would challenge me. Once I started working out on a regular basis and saw such amazing results in a short time - I was so excited and more motivated than ever!” Read more...
	Lisa “What can I say about CrossFit other than it has changed me in so many ways. CrossFit has challenged me physically, emotionally and mentally. I joined CrossFit in July ’09 and I rarely miss a workout.I cannot believe how much my body, energy level and attitude have changed in such a short time. I cannot imagine myself doing another 90 minute yoga routine or pounding the pavement for hours ever again. I owe my life to CrossFit right now.” Read more...
	Mark “I started CrossFit in mid April of 2009 and now it's the only way I will ever workout. I use to be like everyone else in the gym spending an hour on weights and an hour on cardio. It took forever see results and was hard to stay motivated...Today, I'm a CrossFit regular. I try to go workout everyday and feel guilty if I don't go because I enjoy it so much.It's seriously addicting. I lost 12lbs in my first month of working out at CrossFit Rockwall. I then lost another 19lbs during our diet challenge and a few pounds after the challenge was over.” Read more...
	Mike B “I went for my yearly physical last week on August 5th, 2009, and the news was astounding. I had been on Metformin for my diabetes type 2 since 2003. In the course of sixty days of healthy eating and a total of forty Crossfit workouts, I went from being on 1000mg of Metformin a day, to being medication free! I have lost four inches on my waistline and over thirty pounds. I know I’ve found the answer to what I have been looking for. I feel better than I have in more than a decade!” Read more...
	Kathy “The first time I went to a CrossFit group class, I felt like I fit in because everyone was struggling to accomplish their own goals - it was not a group trying to accomplish a common goal defined by the beat of the latest pop tune. After almost 6 weeks, I have learned to have fun trying something new, and see the improvements in my strength and endurance each time I go.” Read more...
