Meet member Andrea!

Name: Andrea Cocco

Age: 22

Occupation: Nursing Student (Andrea had the pleasure of having Anna as her lab partner in nursing school, or is it that Anna had the pleasure of having Anna as her partner?)

Previous workout/exercise history before starting CrossFit? After playing softball in college I joined Lifetime fitness. I got so bored of doing the same thing every day that eventually I gave up on it. (Anna was pretty persuasive too of getting Andrea out of that other gym and into CrossFit.)

CrossFitting Since: November 2012

How did you learn about CrossFit Sting? The infamous Anna Bullis (yep, I have already mentioned her twice!)

Was it love at first WOD? Not really. Kettlebells and running don’t exactly tug at my heartstrings. But after my first weight lifting WOD, I was hooked.

Favorite WOD or movements? Anything with weightlifting (shocker.. I know) But specifically I like squats and cleans. (See pictures above, the girl is a total beast and has progressed so fast! None of us can keep up with the numbers she continues to post.)

Least favorite WOD or Movements? Running, rowing, wallballs…pretty much anything that gives tall people an advantage.

Favorite CrossFit Sting moment? Describe your experience here. Seeing Anna wet her pants after doing a WOD with double unders. I haven’t laughed that hard in a while. (Hey, it happens! In fact there was a pretty funny video circulating this week about it. I also know for a fact that it has happened to many of our members on a weekly basis. Just wait until you have kids Miss 21 year old.)

Why do you CrossFit? I get stressed easily from nursing school, so Crossfit is perfect. There is nothing better to make you forget about nursing interventions than not being able to breathe.

Tell us something new about you that we don’t already know? Most people don’t know that I have been sewing part time for my neighbors business since I was a freshman in high school. (Yes, beastly little Andrea not only sews but she has a pet rabbit too! She also has overcome her hatred for running, well not really, but she did complete her first 5K recently. Proud of you Andrea!)

Cannot recommend this place more, we were new to CrossFit and found this gym very welcoming. The coaches are fantastic and helped me learn build my CrossFit foundation. The members are kind and super supportive. This gym and the workouts quickly became our favorite part of the day. At the same time, the workouts are challenging and fun! Look no further for a good workout in the area.

Dropped in for a few classes during the holidays and was very happy I chose to come to Crossfit Sting. Danielle was a great coach as well as very responsive and flexible with scheduling a drop in. I would highly recommend to any crossfiters in the area or travelling through.

After doing crossfit at two other gyms (one box since it opened seven years ago), it was hard to start anew. What has impressed me most about CF Sting is the varied workouts, particularly the movements in the "Skill and Strength." To be honest, some of the movements were ones I rarely did or was not as skilled in. Danielle always has a modification ready so all levels can do the workout. After 5-6 months, I can already see changes in my body and even if the workout looks intimidating, I do not let that stop me from "cherry-picking"--I know that Danielle will work with me, and I am improving at my own pace. Thank you!

I was in town for work and dropped in at Crossfit Sting and immediately felt comfortable there. Danielle is a great coach and leader of her gym. Workouts are well programmed and executed. There is plenty of room at the gym and ample equipment! I would drop in again! Thanks Danielle and Crossfit Sting.
