Sandra

Meet Sandra. Sandra is one of MR’s badass, bilingual, super-moms, managing to juggle work as a bartender, making it to the gym for almost every WOD and taking care of her three children and two pups. She started CrossFit in 2016 and loved it but sadly, due to difficult circumstances, needed to quit for four years. She has been back at MR for a year. She said she missed how Coach Sarah motivates her to lose weight and keep her working hard. While CrossFit isn’t all about looking a certain way, a big part of Sandra’s CrossFit experience at MR has been getting stronger and losing weight. She is proud of her transformation and shared with us her before and after Movement Republic CrossFit. We are so happy for Sandra and that all of her hard work has made her feel more confident!
