I got into CrossFit right after coming out of the Fire Academy. I started by pulling bits and pieces of it off the main site, but never really grasped the full concept of it until I was fully introduced to it at during a free trial session. Well just like crack heads always say, “first ones free, then yer hooked” – I was hooked! This was exactly what I was looking for. The constant variation and intensity of the workouts, was OUSTANDING. And the 150% dedication of Threshold’s crew –Chris, Lish, and Tony (Albert, and Annika too)—was the icing on the cake. These guys coached me, and everyone else that comes into their box, with full-blown intensity and enthusiasm. They are constantly helping us improve our skills, attitudes towards the workouts, and even with our nutrition. In addition to the physical aspect of it all, mentally I felt stronger. I had more confidence in my overall physical abilities as well.

But it wouldn’t be fair of me to give all credit to just the trainers. The people in this box are great. No other gym I have ever been a part of and had a bond with them like this. No matter what level of fitness, everyone encourages, cheers on and just all around has a good time with everyone else. Basically it is a community, everyone helps everyone out.

Ever since I graduated the Fire Academy I have been searching for work in the fire service. Just recently I took the Physical Ability Test for the City of Miami’s dept. of Fire Rescue, and smoked it. The training crossfit prescribes, combined with the coaching provided by Chris, Lish and Tony, at Threshold, prepared me to become successful in all events of the test, and any other task that may come my way in the future. THANK YOU GUYS VERY MUCH – AND EVERYONE ELSE AT THRESHOLD
