Cheri Spatenka

Hi, I'm Cheri! I'm a wife, mom, Nana, and a firm believer that fitness has no age limit. As I approach 60, I hope to inspire others to see that it's never too late to start, grow, and discover what your body is capable of.

I've always loved being active and participating in team sports, which is one of the many reasons I fell in love with CrossFit. The community, encouragement, and shared victories make it feel like the ultimate team sport. There's nothing more rewarding than watching athletes surprise themselves by accomplishing things they never thought possible.

When I'm not at the gym, you'll likely find me spending time with my family, hiking, traveling, or dropping into CrossFit gyms wherever my adventures take me. I love meeting new people, learning from different communities, and bringing that energy back home.

One of my favorite parts of my CrossFit journey is that it became a family affair. My daughter and I started CrossFit together, and before long, we had most of our family joining us in the gym. Some of our best memories have been made cheering each other on through workouts, celebrating personal records, doing comps, and growing stronger together.

My goal as a coach is simple: help you believe in yourself, have fun, and realize you're capable of far more than you think. No matter your age, fitness level, or experience, there's a place for you here, and I can't wait to be part of your journey.
