I good friend of mine Kerri got some of my other friends and neighbors into it and they all loved it.  Then basically my wife encouraged me to try it out as well.  I started going with my youngest daughter who took the kids crossfit class while I took CircHIIT.  It was a perfect setup.

I feel stronger, fitter and slimmer.

I knew I needed to get in shape again and just running and biking was not enough.

I really noticed a change in myself once I started doing at least 3 classes a week and no matter how sore you might be, stick with it.  It just keeps getting better.
