October Member spotlight: Jenni Everhart

Tell us a little about yourself and what got you on the path to CrossFit…I never worked out. I started doing Zumba and Brian was doing CrossFit. The gym he was working out at, started a class called “sweatshop” which was a cardio and lifting program with kettlebells and dumbbells! I loved it! I then started going to regular CrossFit classes and that was how I got into CrossFit. With my work schedule I was only able to go 1-3 times a week. Since 2021, I have been going to CrossFit 4-5 times a week and now love the barbell and lifting.
