dirt bike bench racing as we could throw down in an hour . As the show evolved , we began streaming live on YouTube and became a web show and a podcast . I also took an interest in video creation and photography , which resulted in a lifetime ’ s worth of videos and some well-received event coverage photo epics .
Which brings me to the crossroads I found myself at today . Of course , I still love to ride dirt bikes , I still love to make dirt bike videos , and I still love to take dirt bike photos .

As I kept getting stronger and more into the world of CrossFit , I found myself asking more in-depth questions about movements , training methodologies , and nutrition .

It was late 2018 when I received my CrossFit Level 1 Trainer Certificate , which provided me with the platform and direction I needed to make a difference in others ’ lives .
