Member of the Month: MATT Q

Thank you guys so much for being so inspirational to me and l motivating me when I'm struggling to keep up. I  CFU and really couldnt imagine my life without Crossfit or my CFU fam. BAMF's

How did you get started with CrossFit? 
A buddy of mine mentioned it in conversation. So after I YouTube'd it I was so stoked to see it first hand so I searched for a gym and thats when I found CFU.

CrossFit is no easy task, what made you stick with it? 
Crossfit is so much fun to me and I feel like I'm constantly competing with myself for better scores and results. Plus I love the way my body feels after a tough WOD. It makes me feel like I've been sleeping all day and I dont wake up until I get my WOD in. 

What do you love the most about CrossFit? 
The people, hands down. Never met such a positive, motivating, and supportive group of BAMF's before. I love my CFU fam.

What is your favorite WOD or lift? 
Wow there are so many to choose from. I actually really like Murph even with the ripped up hands and swollen arms for days hahaha.

What is your least favorite WOD or lift? 
I would have to say Cleans only because my wrists arent that flexible and sometimes I sprain them if I catch the bar in the wrong spot. 

What is your ultimate goal? 
Well when I started I was trying to lose weight. Now 45lbs lighter I just want to maintain this new lifestyle of being healthy and strong. 

Share one thing about yourself that others may not know. 
I'm a huge geek when it comes to gadgets or making little inventions and stuff like that. Example, I used to want a front facing camera for my old phone so I made a 180 degree para scope for my it that was attatched with a paper clip. It re-directed the the camra view to face the front of the phone. It wasn't perfect but it did work. I called it "The Reach Around" hahaha.
