Regan Green “That Guy”
CrossFit Level 1 Certified

Regan is easy going and had always been athletic; enjoying golf,
baseball, gymnastics and karate. When Regan first walked into
CrossFit Greer, he thought…”These people are crazy!!”. Finally
after getting enough courage to try it in November 2009, it became
evident that this was his new passion. Through the CrossFit program,
including nutrition, Regan has lost 27lbs and is on his way to
becoming a Ninja! He has an uncanny eye for detail and form. He
loves seeing people who have never pushed themselves physically or
mentally push themselves to new levels and achieve record
feats….That’s why he loves CrossFit.

“intensity through CrossFit is the shortcut to your fitness goals”

Jenn Green

Before CrossFit, Jenn just ran for exercise…Not very fast or far and then she was introduced to CrossFit. Jenn remembers her first WOD – 4 Rounds 800m Run, burpees & box jumps. She couldn’t even finish the WOD, but came back for more and has been crossfitting for almost 3 years now. CrossFit absolutely required of Jenn a total mental change that allowed for her to move not just outside of her comfort zone but WAY outside of it. CrossFit continues to push her to extremes that she never thought she’d be capable of.

She loves breaking through the mental barriers with the support of an incredible community of people, all aiming for the same goals. Even more than this, Jenn loves watching as others break through their own mental barriers and achieve something that they never thought possible. “Having the opportunity to train and help others to feel just as much a part of our community is priceless to me” she says…. “Life is pushing on me and I am going to push back, HARD!”
