Trevor, aka "Butthead, showing his abs off for the ladies!

It was a unanimous choice by the coaching staff and a pleasure to recognize Trevor as the September ARCFit athlete of the month.  I love having this guy train at our box!  Butthead brings an enthusiasm to the training sessions that is rarely matched.  He’s always in a good mood, jokes around with other members, and has no problem laughing at himself.  Trevor also makes it a point to always introduce himself to new members and help them in any way he can.  Besides all of that, he is consistent and works his butt off every time he steps through that roll-up door!  No matter how long a WOD takes him to finish, he will see it through to the end.  There is no quit in his game!  My only concern with selecting Butthead for this prestigious award is the WOD that his crazy mind will come up with to lay waste to any and all ARCFit athletes.  Congrats on an honor well deserved Trevor!-CN

Here is a little more of Trevor’s story in his own words:

Not too long ago I came to American River CrossFit thinking I was in pretty good shape from my daily workouts at 24hr fitness. Let me tell you, it took me all of the first wod to realize that crossfit is a higher level of conditioning. It’s here that Chad offered me the blue or red pill, the blue pill I wake up tomorrow and continue working out at 24hr fitness, but if I take the red pill my workouts will be flipped upside down and I will see fitness for what it really is PAIN!!  As you can see I’ve taken the red pill.   Now I find myself suffering through grueling but yet fun wods.  I also have been making new friends along with building a new and better Trev.  Chad has since transformed me into a gorillaborg!!  He has done this by showing me the proper technique to olympic lifting, which I had never done before.  Chad has pushed my mental toughness to new limits.  Chad has designed programs that build strength and increase our cardio.  He does all this and still maintains an exciting and fun place to better ourselves.  What I’ve noticed most about him is that he actually cares about everyones overall fitness.  He gets super hyped when someone meets a new goal or pr’s.  What keeps me coming back is the camaraderie and the new challenges of each and every wod at ARCFit.  With that said I must go now and get ready to plug myself back into the matrix.
