Sweatiest Angel Award


Each month CSC recognizes someone for their hard work. The Sweatiest Angel is not someone who works as hard as they can day in and day out, but also receptive to coaching, a great teammate and consistently focused on pursuing their goals.


Question + Answer


How many years have you been doing CrossFit?
I have been doing CrossFit for 10 months.

 
What do you do when you are not at CSC (hobbies, occupation, etc)?
Well, I am usually studying, sleeping, working or just sitting outside in the sun ( I am originally from Southern California).


When did you realize CrossFit was for you?
I knew CrossFit was for me after my first WOD. I just loved the energy and being able to feed off of other, which made me work harder.
 
 
What is your favorite WOD/movement?
I do not have a favorite WOD, yet. But my favorite movement is kipping pull-up (until my hands start to hurt).


What is your LEAST favorite WOD/movement?  
Burpees!!! They are the bane of my existence.


One thing you've done at CSC you never thought you would do?
The hand stand push-up, I struggled with getting my feet into the air.


What motivates you during a WOD?
Feeding off others definitely motivates me, I have always liked challenges.


What advice would you give someone just starting CrossFit?
Just let the WOD kick your a$, it only hurts for a little while ;)

Congratulations to Lizabeth Lukesic on winning CSC's Sweatiest Angel award for the month of June! The Sweatiest Angel award is given each month to a CSC member who displays significant work ethic, a willingness to support others and a true sense of camaraderie inside the gym.  Not only is Liz always smiling and showing a positive attitude but she has also made some done some tremendous work lately - posting faster times in WODs, using heavier weight than she ever has and improving greatly at many skills. Just as she says, you get out of it what you put in, and Liz works her ass off. How long have you been doing CrossFit? I started doing CrossFit-like workouts four years ago and joined CSC in July of 2014. What do you do when you are not at CSC?

Preparing For The Murph

We are coming up on the last week of May which means one thing here in Cleveland - it is Memorial Day weekend and hopefully Summer has finally come!  In the CrossFit world, this also means it is time for Murph! If you find yourself asking who Murph is then you must be new to our functional fit world of people who do not always take the easy road, are willing to work harder than they ever have for their fitness goals, and understand that the support of a community can lift mountains.  Welcome!  And prepare to scream at yourself for 40+ minutes this Memorial Day. What Is Murph  Murph is a CrossFit Hero WOD.  More, THE CrossFit Hero WOD.  Each year thousands of gyms around the United States program the same WOD on the same day - Memorial Day Murph. Murph was created in honor of the sacrifice of Lt. Michael Murphy, one of the storied American soldiers in the movie Lone Survivor.  Click the link to read more about Lt. Murphy and the Murph Foundati...
