Favourite Lift – Snatch
Favourite Workout – Event 4 of Regionals 2017 so much fun!
Favourite Thing About Coaching Crossfit – Witnessing people realize what they are truly
capable of is one of the greatest rewards of coaching and training others.
Background
Being active and competing are some of Stephs favorite things to do, so the
transition to crossfit was a natural progression in her athletic journey. She is the
Fittest Female in South Australia (2016,2017) she has competed in the Crossfit
Pacific Regional in 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017 placing in the top ten all years but
one.
Steph has taken a step back from high level competing to focus on coaching full-time and helping others find out what they are truly capable of through CrossFit (although she will still occasionally enter a competition to scratch that competitive itch)
Outside of the gym Steph enjoys spending time outdoors, whether its for a trail run or hanging out on the weekends with her husband and friends.
