Q: What motivates you to stay consistent and push through tough training blocks, especially during season openers and competitions?

Strength to Serve: Fitness, Fatherhood, and Finding Purpose with Kaleb Campbell | #37
Q: How did you transition from policing to personal training and eventually build your own practice?

A good fit has an established CrossFit base with mature athletes who value safety, longevity, and coaching quality. Consider the age profile, the ability to deliver a clear, intuitive program, and whether the owners are committed to a sustainable, long-term approach that keeps members engaged and injury-free.
