Corey Franklins training to be more gooder
 

Yes Gooder is a word:) as its in between good and better.


Greeting all,
I have been tracking my results in so many places that today is the day to move to the main site.
I completed my first WOD on the Brand X site on June 24th and joined the Local Grand Rapids CrossFit Affiliate a month or so later.

Alittle back ground history:
I am 34 and a reforming over weight guy, when I hit 30 I decided enough is enough and since that time have gone from about 290 pounds down to 194.

I train leadership and sales people for a communications company thats foot print spans across the country so I have a chance to drop into affilaites around the states and so far have hit two with the intentions of visiting a few more this year.
