2021 July Spotlight Athlete- Bryana Bullard
Our July spotlight athlete had a unique beginning with us. She came to us through a summer bootcamp we provided a few summers ago. As always, we had hoped those that signed up would stay with us to continue their fitness journey. It turned out that only one person stayed and is sill with us, Bryana. She came in with that little bit of sass, determined to conquer every workout we threw her way and she still has that determination to this day. I think I can speak for all of us who’ve worked out with Bryana when I say our community would not be the same without her. She speaks her mind, yet listens. She might complain a bit, but then conquers. She could have easily bowed out over the years but has proven what consistency looks like. We are so proud of Bryana and she is well deserving of the spotlight.
Q: WHY DID YOU JOIN US?
A: My co-worker suggested we do a boot camp that a CrossFit gym was holding once upon a time a couple years ago and literally I’ve just never left.
Q: WHAT'S BEEN YOUR BIGGEST ACCOMPLISHMENT SINCE JOINING US?
A: Just learning each movement and mastering them. I’ve become so much stronger, and more confident in not only in my body type, but even me personally. Hitting new numbers and seeing just how strong your body is and what it’s capable of is huge to me!
Q: WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON NOW?
A: Nothing specifically, but as long as my legs are, those toes are hitting the bar soon!! Also I want to get my double unders in check!
Q: WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE MEMORY AT OUR GYM?
A: HA! Gosh, I want to say when I really first started going to actual class after my boot camp sessions, I couldn’t quite get a squat down pack. I literally had an entire meltdown tears and all over me having to use a box behind me. I was so embarrassed cause woah some people get LOW! *Side one just for giggles, when I first started at boot camp I was so extremely sore, I was scared to go use the restroom cause it meant I had to squat LOL!!!
Q: WHAT MOTIVATES YOU TO CONTINUE TRAINING HERE?
A: The people! I never knew I could become apart of such a super tight and amazing family. We all work hard and praise each other no matter the accomplishments in or outside the gym!
