Nicknames. Love ‘em or leave ‘em? Unfortunately none of you have a choice (right K-Fed?). Many of you are walking around the box wondering when we’re going to forget about your nickname. Sorry gang, once you’ve been labeled with a moniker it’s going to stick with you for all of your days training inside the box. It’s what gives this place that cool family vibe! What other gym can you walk into and see a Sonic, GyGy, Mesh, Machine, Aims, Bomba, ATP (Addicted to Pain), Irish Sean, B-Dub, Tine, Beavis and Butthead, just to name a few?
And now you can add one more nickname to that list-”Xena the Warrior Princess”. This name was given to Karry by Brandon (above) after he watched as she walked over to his barbell and proceeded to add more weight for her 3 x 5 deadlifts. As Brandon looked on in awe, he immediately gave her that fitting name. Wear it proudly girl!-CN
Wow – thanks Brandon!!! There could definitely be worse nicknames I could have been given?!?! I hope I can live up to it…..she looks pretty bad ass!!
xena’s got nuthin’ on kk, but i do see a future halloween costume here…

I’ve been called worse. Although, about 1/2 of Irish men are Sean, the other half are a mix of Liam, Aidan, and Kevin. Not an imaginative bunch.
I think it’s time we turned the tables and trainees started giving the trainers some nicknames. Here’s one for Chad: Grape Ape: http://grapemumb.50megs.com/GreatGrapeApe_Show_Series.jpg.
I think I need a food lift!
I want the Freedom Strider
I agree with Sean…I think we should give the trainers nick names. I think Christian’s new nickname could be Dr. Evil!

Since there are two brandons now at crossfit, I think its time for a nickname christian… Be gentle
Dr. Evil. Perfect.
Not bad K-Fed! I love a challenge Brandon…
Omg! The Food Lift? Ew… Wth?
