What’s one interesting thing about you that other members may not know?
Some members know but a lot probably aren’t aware that I am a competitive cheerleader and have competed at the Worlds Cheerleading competition and many other events across Canada and the States.
What is your most memorable moment at Synergy Strength?
One of my most memorable moments at Synergy was in the old gym during a fundraiser when everyone came in and donated money to a family in need and Chad ran 5km and looked like he was going to die when he got back.
When you talk about Synergy Strength with friends, what do you brag about?
I brag about how many different options there are at one facility. How its not just a crossfit gym but offers many other types of training as well as many health care professions which is beneficial and I think is important for a lot of sport facilities to have.
What does #synergystrong mean to you?
Not only does synergystrong mean about how strong everyone is that trains within the gym, but it also means about how strong the gym is as a community and all come together when someone in the community needs help.
What is you favorite aspect of Synergy Strength?
My favorite aspect of Synergy is the community feeling and acceptance of the gym. Whenever you walk into the gym you always feel welcomed and everyone says Hi, how are you doing? No matter how frustrating your day was when you walk into the gym you can’t help but smile.
