COACHES


Jacob Lawgun

Having spent over twenty years in training in various commercial gym type settings using machines, cables and other non-functional exercises I was set in my ways. I always trained hard and intense and thought ‘my body-building’ type training was the best.

I was put to the test when I reluctantly did a CrossFit class at the start of 2010. After that one workout I discovered what intensity was. I discovered how unfit I was and how unable I was at performing everyday movements.

From that first WOD I saw passion and excitement in all the other people doing it, not only that but the ‘community spirit’ which is CrossFit.

Every WOD that I do still fills me with excitement, knowing that I’m going to be challenged and anticipation, knowing what I can achieve.

CrossFit is now my passion, which I share with my wife and our children; we want to share what we have experienced and also to encourage others to achieve a fitter and stronger lifestyle that helps them all the time, every day.

Ness Lawgun

I am a wife, mum to three gorgeous CrossFit kids, a trained secondary school teacher (specialising in educating at-risk youth), qualified fitness instructor and sport lover.

After a long, long time training at a gym doing the same old, same old thing and getting the same old, same old results I discovered CrossFit 2 years ago.

I was sceptical at first but it only took one class and she was hooked. The intensity, the camaraderie and the joy of completing a workout, all combined to make it my training method of choice. I have achieved results I had never experienced in all my time training. Not only am I stronger, I am fitter and I have way more energy and my passion for training is reignited. I recently competed in the Australasian CrossFit Regionals 2011, as part of the CrossFit Birkenhead team, and I also take part in local competitions.
