First ever Athlete of the Month! Ramsey Howell! Ramsey started with CrossFit Strom in December, 2010. She originally wanted to tone up for an upcoming February beach vacation. Ramsey has shown significant improvements in her two months with CrossFit Strom. Not only has she dropped down one whole size already, but she has gone from swinging a 20# dumbbell to swinging the 35# kettlebell with ease! She went from step ups on a 12” inch box to jumping on the 20” inch box. Ramsey attends classes normally 5-6 times a week. She is an inspiration to everyone at the gym! Keep it up Ramsey!

Name and/or Nickname

Ramsey “Rambo” Howell

What is your fitness background?

I have worked out or played sports for my entire life. I have never done anything quite like CrossFit! This is a different world to me! I HATE running, burpees and kettle bells, but I learned (Thank you Adam!) that I need to work on my weaknesses! I am now running 4 miles at a time on my own (HUGE DEAL) and doing burpees and kettle bell swings when Strom MAKES me! HA! Every workout is completely different which keeps me coming back! The entire group is so positive and encouraging!

How long have you been CrossFitting?

Since December 20, 2010

What’s your favorite part of CrossFit?

Every workout is different! Everyone is positive! Everyone wants everyone to achieve their goals! Good people/good music!

What are your training goals?

To be honest, to feel good about myself and to do an unassisted pull up.

Favorite CrossFit activity

I am not sure why, but I love rowing and deadlifts.
