ROY WOLLGAST

I stumbled upon CrossFit while preparing for a deployment in late 2009 and early 2010. At first, my workouts were more experimental, but I quickly became captivated by it. About halfway through that year-long deployment, during an R&R leave period, I pursued and obtained my Level 1 certificate. That’s when I became truly enamored with CrossFit. Throughout my coaching journey, I’ve trained military special operators, record-holding powerlifters, weightlifters, strongmen, and a diverse array of endurance and CrossFit athletes. However, the most significant impact I feel I’ve made pertains to the remaining 99% of the population. My focus has been on collaborating with everyday individuals—those striving to excel in their professions, maintain their well-being for their families, and pursue not just a long lifespan but also a long health span.
