Congratulations to Maclin Lindsay on
winning CSC's Sweatiest Angel award for the month of January! 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.
Every day Mac comes into CSC and busts his ass to the highest extent he is able. Like many people in this country, Mac has a lower back issue that has bothered him for years but doesn't let it keep him from challenging himself each day and supporting others in their pursuit of the same. Over the last year and a half he has learned how to prepare himself for class, which mobility techniques are most effective for recovery and how to work within his limitations to continue growing as an athlete. Mac is an example for all of us who have bumps and bruises that can frustrate us at times.
How long have you been doing CrossFit?
I've been doing CrossFit for 1.5 years.
What do you do when you are not at CSC?
I'm currently a metallurgical engineer working at Alcoa. When I'm not at CSC I like to play soccer, guitar and keys.
When did you realize CrossFit was for you?
My first WOD I was instantly challenged and then JB started yelling at me and been hooked ever since.
What is your favorite WOD/movement?
Handstand push-ups
What is your LEAST favorite WOD/movement?
Snatch - should be eliminated from CF.
One thing you've done at CSC you never thought you would do?
Muscle-up
What motivates you during a WOD?
Good music is a necessity.
What advice would you give someone just starting CrossFit?
