Jonathan - Makin' things happen!

I want you to meet Jonathan......



He's been attending crossfit classes with us at RunTex since December.
When Jonathan started CrossFit just 6 months ago his fitness had gotten away from him as work became a priority.
Jonathan is an athlete - natural talent - innate strength - unbelievable ability to trash talk on the basketball court :) You get the picture!
However during Jonathan's first month or two at CrossFit Central, he had to fight to get into an air squat and some days the warm up and 400m jog made his head spin before we started the WOD.



Jonathan never got discouraged. Instead, he asked for help with his nutrition, work with me and Travis to correct his biomechanics, and continued to show up and feed off the energy of his classmates!

Last month as Jonathan broke records in the CrossFit Total, blasted thru met-cons like this, and knocked out kipping pull-ups with ease - it was obvious he is a changed man!

Congratulations, Jonathan on all your progress and being a part of the CrossFit Central community for 6 months!

One of these things is not like the others.

The entire Jack and Adam's Tu/Thur 6:30am crew!


Look at the teamwork in Tuesday's Partner Workout!


Look at the perfect unison in the Partner Workout....

Now look at this ..... In order to really enjoy this post, listen to THIS, while you look at this photo.
I am sure you guessed it - Neil is the man who marches to the beat of his own drum!
If you don't know Neil - you should!
While he didn't make the teamwork photo and is rarely in perfect unison with the class, he is the glue that keeps this team together - or at least the silly puddy!
It's been quoted by one of his Relentless companions that "Every class needs a Neil!" He works hard, makes jokes, and befriends anyone joins us. If Neil is missing from class, not only do his coaches (me and Travis) know but his classmates are missing him before the warm up is over! Maybe that is the reason that he's NEVER missed a class that he didn't tell me about well in advance!
Thanks, Neil!
