Student Athlete of the Week

Elliot is our "Student Athlete of the Week". I can remember the first conversation I had with Elliot. He said..."I just joined The Sports Club/LA last week but, I am a gym phobic! They told me I have five days to cancel my membership, what should I do?" Of course we all know what I recommended... two days later he was one of the founding students at LALANNE FITNESS! Elliot had no history of 'working out'. Aside from the random yoga classes and a casual bike ride in the park, he was not he 'gym' going type of guy. Many of our students say something similar. They are uncomfortable about going to the 'gym' or are simply looking for a change. For Elliot, the last three months here have been very empowering. He is a changed man. He has more strength, more confidence, more fitness!

A display of confidence by Elliot!

I love Elliot. He is like a quiet storm. He comes in LF like a ninja and sneaks up on ya. He is quiet the whole time during the WOD, but will probably be one of the first people to finish! Sneaky little guy! Elliot the "former gym phobic," has been making phenomenal gains! His body has changed dramatically since day 1 and he looks fantastic! Congrats Elliot! You went from "gym -phobic" to "CrossFit Addict!" Way to go!!

Wow, I can't believe it, what a stud muffin. I can't wait until I see this new man of steel in November. You should be very proud of all of your accomplishments. I know I am.

Look at that form, dedication and willingness to endure and enjoy the pain. Dedication to taking care of his muscles and heart is obvious in his facial expression. Elliot is one of the most brilliant people I know and if he likes LF it is because of the quality of the people and the gym, not the status of the "just to look good" gym-people. But most importantly, at LF there are no cars to run into him!!! Bonus!! (grin)
Way to go E^

Hey Elliot,

Your looking great. Glad to see the work-out genes run in the family. Looking forward to seeing you and your new bod for the Holidays. We are all so proud of you!
