Athlete of the Month - November 2021

Emily Thomas

My favorite thing about CF is the confidence that it has given me and all the amazing people I have met.

Career:  1st-4th grade English Teacher ⁣

Years at Crossfit MontCo:  1

When did you start CF?⁣

I started about 7 months ago. I came for a month in December when I was home from college, and then started back up again in May when I came back.⁣

What CF movements do you like?⁣

My favorite movements are definitely Deadlifts & Back squats. I was so scared to lift anything when I first started, so it’s exciting to see that fear slowly disappear (thanks to Sam always sneaking weight on my bar haha). ⁣

What CF movements do you dislike?⁣

Push Jerks and Split Jerks. I definitely overthink them WAY too much! ⁣

What’s your favorite thing about CF?⁣

My favorite thing about CF is the confidence that it has given me and all the amazing people I have met. I’ve started to understand what my body is capable of from the help of the amazing coaches and my main support squad (aka the 7pmers). ⁣

What’s on your CF bucket list?⁣

Any gymnastics movement or movement on the bar. I’m not strong enough yet, but I know i’ll get there and I’m excited about that!
