It’s been a fairly CrossFit-filled couple of weeks here at Lumos Studio, but I did call our last post about Carolina CrossFit<\/a> a “teaser”, so I guess it would be duplicitous to not share at least a few more photos from our recent shoot.<\/p>\n

First, though, bear with me for just a tiny bit of back story. Several years ago, when Carolina CrossFit<\/a> was just starting out, a friend of mine invited me to the gym to see what it was about. To abbreviate significantly, I wound up working out there for several months. If you don’t know anything about CrossFit, feel free to go read up on it<\/a>–there’s far more to it than I’m going to try to explain. What I\u00c2\u00a0will<\/em> say is this. I don’t really like exercising, but I really like CrossFit. At Carolina CrossFit I saw results almost as soon as I started working out, because if you show up and do the work, there’s essentially nothing else that can happen. Your body will<\/em> change. It’s pretty much the law.<\/p>\n

A friend of ours saw the last post and joked that he now knew he could never go to a CrossFit gym–implying that the people there were too intimidatingly fit. Yeah, yeah, I get that. The thing is, though, it’s not that CrossFit is a place for fit people, it’s that people who go to CrossFit get fit, consistently. Honestly, though, that’s not the best thing about Carolina CrossFit. It’s the people and the community that are the heart and soul of the place, and at the center of that are the owners, Paul and Dorothy.<\/p>\n

\"Paul<\/a><\/p>\n

(I feel like there’s a Sesame Street “big…small” skit in there somewhere.)<\/p>\n

And though the folks who go to CCF may look tough…<\/p>\n

\"Carolina<\/a><\/p>\n

…they’re actually some of the friendliest people you’re likely to encounter.<\/p>\n

\"Kettlebell<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Muscular<\/a><\/p>\n

(Dang.)<\/p>\n

\"Working<\/a><\/p>\n

According to Michelle (above), she always wears her pearls when she’s working out. See, CrossFit isn’t just for girls, it’s for ladies<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"Press\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"CrossFit<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Squat\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"On<\/a><\/p>\n

If you’re interested in getting in the best shape of your life, no matter where you’re starting from, the folks at Carolina CrossFit can help you get there. They’ve just moved into a brand new facility in downtown Columbia, so feel free to drop by and check it out<\/a>. Who knows, I might even be there. I’ll be the one lying prone on the floor gasping for air. Forgive me if I don’t say “hi”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
