Another week, another late spotlight! Heck, last week I missed the spotlight all together.. oops!
This week’s spotlight is on someone that I have complete admiration for as a blogger, but also have been in complete and utter awe of her performance as an athlete. Lindsay has only been doing Crossfit for less than a year, but the numbers she posts for lifts and times for workouts are just incredible and I hope to one day be able to perform as she does! If you are looking for any sort of inspiration from recipes to weekly “Link Love” to Crossfit, check her out!

What types physical activity do you enjoy?
Crossfit, running occasionally, at-home workouts
How did you get started in weight lifting?
I lifted weights in high school when I played Junior Olympic volleyball. I college I was on the rowing team. After college, I joined a gym, lifted occasionally and spend a lot of time on the elliptical. Then I got into running and started running 15-20 miles a week. About 9 months ago, I started Crossfit and really got back into serious lifting.
Favorite workout or lift?
Squats! Front, back, overhead…I love them all!
Current lifting-related goal:
200 pound back squat!
Piece of advice for new lifters or those reluctant to try:
Take the time to have someone teach you the correct form. Master that before you start adding weight. Then go for it! Give yourself a month or two and then evaluate the changes in your body. You won’t get bulky with general weight lifting. In fact, it will probably help you slim down!
