Sabrina is a part of our tight knit 6:30pm class. She has given her all every time she steps in the gym since day one of her Prep Course. One thing that stands out Sabrina is that she has a want to get better by learning new skills. Her strength has gone up a tone and she is kicking ass during WODs. Keep it up Sabrina!

A little bit of what Sabrina had to say about her time at EDCF:

When did you join EDCF?  How did you find the gym?  What was your first impression or how did that first workout go?

I joined EDCF in September 2015. My husband and I just moved to Texas that summer and I wanted to find a way to workout together. I saw the gym coming home one day and thought it was conveniently located from our house. I spent the summer jogging around White Rock Lake and THOUGHT I was “in shape” before the intro class. Twenty wall balls and twenty kettlebell swings later I was dying. I distinctly remember telling myself not to over do it, and my husband (Jon G.) threatening he was going to throw up immediately after our first workout!

What class time do you attend the most, are there any regular members you work out with at that time?

I usually attend the 6:30 pm class. 6:30 crew represent! You know who you are!

Tell us a little about yourself, What is your life like outside the gym? Where do you work, do you have kids/pets/spouse/partner? What is your favorite hobby outside the gym?

Outside of the gym I’m a pediatric dental resident at Baylor College of Dentistry and Children’s Medical Center. My husband, Jon G., is also a member of the gym and we have a 4 year old Border Collie pup. I love checking out breweries around DFW and thrifting/antiquing around the area.

What do you like about CrossFit or EDCF that keeps you coming back?

I like the sense of camaraderie I get from the gym. Everyone encourages everyone else and the only person you end up competing against is yourself.

What is your favorite lift or exercise or type of workout? What is one of your short term and long term goals?

My favorite type of workout is any type of squat. My short term goal was to front squat my bodyweight (which I’ve done!) and my long term goals are to get double unders, toes to bar and handstands down!
