November Member of the Month // Carla Trenter

What is your most memorable CrossFit moment so far?

There are so many from my first regionals in Copenhagen, Holiday to Barcelona with some of the old Blitz gang, learning to surf, a trip to the US with Sammi to New Orleans to catch up with Sierra (old Blitz member) then Chicago and then on to the CrossFit games in Madison in 2017 to support Team JST and Pat Murray and of course all the Blitz birthday parties.

 

What is your favourite movement/workout?

Double unders, hand stands and all lifting- love a barbel class when everyone is getting PB’s, I also don’t hate Burpees….

Favourite workout is Annie as I can do it RX!!!

 

What is your least favourite movement/workout?

Wall balls and I have a fear of box jumps which I am trying to get over.

 

Name a CF goal you hope to achieve by the end of this year?

I used to have a new goal every year and never stuck to it so now it is to enjoy training and try and push myself when I go into class, but I would still love to get a pull up.

 

What do you do when you’re not training at Blitz?

Spending time with friends and family and that includes lots of people from Blitz I also love to travel overseas or within the UK…

My friends that don’t go to Blitz are convinced I have joined a cult….

 

What is your favourite part of being a Blitz Member?

The Community, coaching and classes… I get excited when coming to class, knowing I am going to have a hard workout but also see so many great people.

 

If you could give a new member one piece of advice- what would it be? 

Don’t be afraid no one is watching what you are doing ….well apart from the coaches, as they are always watching even when you don’t think they are

 

Tell us a fun fact about yourself.…..

I am a trained make up artist

I used to live in Kavos, Greece and be a bar rep… getting people in to my bar, 2 for 1 on cocktails!!!

I have been single for 11 years so if anyone is reading this you can slide into my DM’s
