About Me

My photo
I am 20 years old at Springfield College. I started Crossfit in the winter of 2008 and have went on and off with that and P90x. But since the summer of 2009 until summer of 2011 I did Crossfit then switched to Strength and Conditioning. I Played soccer lacrosse basketball and ran track throughout my life. I played lacrosse at Endicott but I was injured and did not play the entire season. Another passion is strength and conditioning which has changed my life for the better. My midterm goal is to compete in a powerlifting competition, run an ultra and run the Boston Marathon, and my ultimate long term goal is to become a Strength and Conditioning coach, a lacrosse coach, and to open my own Strength and Conditioning gym as well as break the record for bench press at 165lbs bw. Along with training for my goals I enjoy pushing my body to its limits and seeing what the human body is capable of by doing activities that require a lot of physical and mental aspects.

Loving the christmas spirit that comes with this time of year. So happy with the grace time I did not think I was going to hit the sub 3 minute mark.  I ended up getting 15 unbroken and then just kept pushing hard after that. Today I hit the 12 days of crossfit with the family and it was solid and a lot of fun. I funneled my beer when I hit the 12th day and then pushed hard for the end. The past few days I have been slightly feeling my past injury in my glute. Really not sure why but I hope it is just a passing phase because if it is back and ruins my dreams again I am not sure what I am going to do with my life.

    congrats on the pr's dan. no worries about the injury coming back. just give it time. when i hear a young dude talking about not knowing what their going to do with their lives it brings me back. when i was 19-20, i had no clue. absolutely no clue. I had a direction, which you have, and just figured it would lead me down the right path. keep ur head up and forge ahead.
