  • What’s your athletic background?

 

I played Handball from the age of 11 till 27 .. then I didn‘t do any real sport (I only paid monthly fee at the gym) for almost 10 years (OMG!) until I discovered Crossfit 2 years ago

 

  • What was your first experience with CrossFit?

 

I actually didn‘t know what CrossFit is, I just heard that it is great, so I wanted to try.

When I entered the box for the very first time for the intro session I instantly knew this is it.

It was love at first sight.

 

  • When did you start CrossFit?

 

In April 2016

 

  • Why did you choose CrossFit Schaffhausen?

 

A friend told me I should go there. So I did.

 

  • What keeps you coming back?

 

Passion for this sport (you might call it a little addiction as well) & the CrossFit family

 

  • How do you like to spend your free time?

 

Besides training I like to spend time with my husband, my friends and my family and I am always up for drinks and party.

I like to spend time at/on the lake and in the mountains or to discover the world during holidays.

 

Now I can’t wait to spend time with my little babyboy.

 

  • What are one or two improvements you have seen in your life since starting CrossFit?

 

I am fitter and healthier than ever before which gives me more energy in all aspects of my life.

Giving birth to a healthy babyboy

 

  • What would you say to someone thinking about starting CrossFit?

 

Just do it. It will make you a better version of yourself. Why wait?.

 

  • What’s your favorite & least favorite CrossFit movement?

 

I love the heavy weightlifting stuff but I also really like nasty metcons

 

The least favorite is probably the ring dip

 

  • What’s your favorite cheat meal?

 

Since I am pregnant there are many but a Ben&Jerrys is always a good choice

 

  • Anything else you would like to share with the CrossFit Schaffhausen family?

 

I love you all 😉
