Name: __Brad Atkin______ Age:__32__ Occupation:_CPA__
Where you’re from: Sterling Heights, MI
Brad is a 32 year old CPA with a small family consisting of his wife, Megan, and one and a half year old son, Jonah. He graduated from Stevenson High School in 2000 and went to college at Central Michigan University where he earned his Bachelors and MBA. Fire Up Chips!
Brad played soccer in high school and has since had a long break in his fitness routine. During his time between then and now, he has had multiple personal trainers, attempted Weight Watchers, and has tried all the Fad diets. His success has been a roller coaster ride with all the ups and downs of these programs.
Brad started Crossfit about 6 months ago after hearing about Motor City from a friend at Doctor Christopher’s office. He saw the continued progress that his friends were making and decided to take the plunge. His baseline numbers were a concern to him during the on ramp program. Strength and endurance were lacking to a point many people find themselves at today. Through hard work and determination, Brad has made great progress in the past few months.
Since starting, Brad says that he enjoys Crossfit because “things are always different and I am intrigued by this”. He also said that he can always improve, he appreciates the one on one training that he gets, and that he has a great 0600 group of Crossfitters. “I can now look at more than a number on a scale and start to look at the spectrum of my becoming healthier for myself and my family”.
Brad is happy to be a part of the Motor City Community and we are happy to have him.
Congratulations on your success and hard work thus far and we will continue to provide you the resources, motivation, and support for continued success.
