Athlete Profile

Name: Tricia Chambers
Hometown: East Village, New York City
How long have you been CrossFitting? 4 months
What is your favorite WOD/Exercise? Sprint Intervals – all the WOD’s that involves running
What is your least favorite WOD/Exercise? Double unders
What is your previous workout/athletic background? Former high school sprinter & swimmer growing up in Kingston, Jamaica (Held the record briefly for 60m in 9.6seconds for my age group);  Worked out sporadically after college with running & weights but always stopped due to boredom.
What was your first experience of CrossFit like? Staff was very friendly; but the work out was very different than anything I had ever experienced so it was a bit shocking. But I liked it as it was not the same old boring “lycra gym rat routine” I was used to and CF used different accessories like medicine balls, kettle balls etc so it was exciting.
What results have you seen since CrossFitting? Dropped from size 4 down to size 2. Lost 8 lbs. All over body toning has been  amazing and coming along nicely. Saw better results after following basic Paleo and avoid all processed foods. Still cant give up wine however:)
What’s your favorite aspect about working out at CrossFit Cayman? I love that I have accomplished things I thought were previously impossible for me  – handstands, pull ups, power lifting etc. I  love the variety of the workouts and I am never bored – ever! I love the encouragement from the staff to always try to not be afraid to try a new exercise and to get out my comfort zone. Finally, I especially enjoy the little friendly competing with new friends.
What advice do you have for someone thinking about joining CrossFit Cayman? Just do it!. Don’t be scared by all the different workouts as they are not as hard as they seem. Cross Fit conditioning routine will enable you to accomplish better results  at whatever personal sport you love – endurance running, squash, tennis etc.
