“Most people don’t come to us looking for a breakthrough in the way they think. However, one of the common side effects of CrossFit is a shift in your perception of what you thought was possible, and willingness to do things outside your comfort zone. Intensity doesn’t just come from what you’re able to do, but what you’re willing to attempt and how hard you’re willing to push. By practicing attempting things that are beyond what you think is possible, you get familiar with being unsure, uncomfortable, tentative, and even afraid, then doing it anyway. And don’t think this doesn’t translate to the rest of your life. As I saw written on the wall at CrossFit One World, ‘You are in CrossFit who you are in life.’”

ABOVE RIGHT - JENNY, AFTER ONLY 3 MONTHS OF CONSISTENT CROSSFIT + PALEO!!
Before starting at transform CrossFit, Jenny's workouts consisted, for the most part, of extended cardio sessions (daily 6-mile walks pushing a stroller). Despite her consistent effort, the weight loss was very slow--8 1/2 months after giving birth to her son, Gio, she had only lost 12.4 pounds (an average of 1/3 pound per week).... THEN SHE DISCOVERED CROSSFIT. She lost 9.2 POUNDS IN HER FIRST 6 WEEKS at transform CrossFit!! That's over 1.5 pounds per week (21.6 pounds total) and she says, "I am so addicted to CrossFit! I can't get enough!" Look out! Hot mama comin' through!

"Since starting at transform Crossfit and eating Paleo I have lost 22 lbs and went from wearing a size 10 pant to wearing a size 2 (with a belt!). I have more energy, greater overall strength, and longer endurance. I feel like I am living in my 20 year old body!"

"Transform CrossFit has been an amazing journey for me. After the very first day of Foundations Class I embarrassingly threw up, twice, and swore to myself that this was not for me and that I would not return. With Tracey’s encouragement, I continued with Foundations and began the Paleo nutrition plan. Almost immediately I began to see positive changes in my body, energy level, and overall fitness. Being a busy working mother of two small children, it is often difficult to make time to exercise. I love that CrossFit classes are only 30-45 minutes long (often less!) and that you can view and schedule classes online, it could not be more convenient. Tracey, a million thanks!!"

"I joined Crossfit when I decided that I needed a dramatic change in my life. I was feeling uncomfortable in my own skin, and I liked that Crossfit offers a program that addresss both fitness and nutrition. Tracey said that people who tried full Paleo from the start usually enjoyed the fastest results, and now, FIFTY pounds lighter, I believe her! Plus, I enjoy eating Paleo. I have consistent energy throughout the day, and I never feel myself getting ravenously hungry or painfully stuffed. Also, Tracey's workouts are intense in a way that creates group camaraderie and personal pride, plus a few sore muscles. She understands how to keep challenging each individual while encouraging them along the way. I would recommend Crossfit to anyone who would like to see the kind of fitness results that can be achieved through a healthy, determined approach."

"CrossFit has been revolutionary for me. In the moments before every single workout I am always a little nervous, in part because I know I will be challenged but also because I want to improve on so many different levels. I compete against me while feeding off the energy of other Crossfitters. This approach to exercise is as much about community as it is about my own gains.
I've been a CrossFit athlete for about six months now and can say without hesitation that I feel better than I have in years. But, and this is the key, I know that I have so far to go. Tracey has served as an incredible inspiration on every front (proper form, nutrition, energy) and I will be forever grateful that she saw the benefits of CrossFit and was diligent about immersing herself in all that it offered."

"CrossFit is amazing. I joined the program having been focused only on running for quite some time and am now working out muscles I haven't used in years. And the emphasis on nutrition and eating well is also something I was lacking. I honestly have not been in this good shape in a long time. The camaraderie and fun of working out in a group is also a big motivator. I recommend CrossFit to anyone who is looking for a new fun break from their current workout routine.

HERE'S WHAT OTHERS HAD TO SAY ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCE AT TRANSFORM CROSSFIT:
"I had been working out at home with a combination of cardio and weights for about a year and was looking for something that would be a new challenge and help take me to a higher level of fitness. I was also looking for a more group oriented activity to complement my lonely routine. Although I am not yet at the end of Foundations I already feel that Crossfit has given me all that and more. It is the perfect combination of focusing on nutrition and full-body workouts in a stimulating and fun environment. It is suited to people of all levels and at the same time it is a great leveler of people! Tracey is a fantastic instructor, motivator and role model."
-Anne J, from Pennington, NJ
"My sport is rowing. For the last 5 years, I’ve done nothing else and gotten quite competitive at it. I started CrossFit to regain fitness after 2 injuries with the objective to get back to the level of competitiveness I had last year as well as obtaining a more balanced fitness to avoid injuries in the future. It’s been only a month and most work-outs seem very short to me but I have noticed that I’m getting stronger and endurance is definitely improving. And I just love the whole “caveman-thing, including the abolition of “steady-state” training. Tracey pays great attention to proper technique, which is absolutely essential for long term success, and her enthusiasm is incredible."
-Veronique, from Princeton, NJ
"It's been great Tracey.. the holistic approach to it is just refreshing to me.. I've tried a lot of different workouts over the years and this is the most unique thing I've ever done. I feel leaner and stronger than I have in a long time. Looking forward to this week.
Last night, for the first time in about 5 months, I participated in my first full-contact, full-round sparring session at Taekwondo. The rounds are 2 minutes each, 30 seconds in between. In the four years that I have studied martial arts, I have never once NOT been completely gassed-out by the third round.. until last night. I went full-bore for all 6 minutes.. and was hardly breathing heavy at the end. Without question this is attributed to your program. The results are amazing."
"I joined transform CrossFit [Foundations] in July and started [Small Group CrossFit] classes in August and could already see results. My clothes fit better and my arms and legs are toned and feel strong. My success is due to the approach that CrossFit takes to fitness; combining exercise & nutrition and mostly to Tracey who is an excellent teacher/coach. I highly recommend transform CrossFit to anyone who is serious about their health."
-Donna D, from Pennington, NJ
"As I complete my Foundations sessions, I look forward with excitement to continuing with transform CrossFit. I have watched my body transform over these 4 quick weeks. My legs are slimmer, my arms are more defined, and my core is stronger and flatter. I want MORE!!....Tracey is not only a wonderful trainer, but an inspiration!"
-Diana B, from Pennington, NJ
"Although it has only been 3 weeks, the results from this program have been phenomenal. People have been actually noticing that I look thinner and healthier and I feel so much so... The CrossFit program makes a lot of sense and Tracey teaches it well. She gives a lot of personal attention to each of the clients in the session."
-Manny K, from Pennington, NJ
On Day 1 of CrossFit Foundations, clients are put through a timed workout. On Day 8 (4 weeks later), the same exact workout is repeated in an effort to beat the Day 1 time.
