As you have obviously noticed over the last month or so we’ve had some added help on the coaching front.
We’d like to formally announce Adam Earnshaw as part of the coaching team at CrossFit Tenacity.

Speaking from prior experience, making the transition from training with the group as an athlete, to Coaching the group, can at times be a little difficult. Please make Adzy’s transition a smooth one by showing respect and paying attention when he’s running the class.

Adzy has done a fantastic job so far with the classes that he’s been taking. He will play a big part in the continued growth and development of Tenacity and we are to excited watch him develop as Coach as I’m sure you all are.

ADAM EARNSHAW – TRAINER

Qualifications:
Bachelor of Applied science – Human movement (UniSA)
Currently completing a Masters in strength and conditioning (ECU)
Crossfit level 1 (CF-L1) Trainer

I have always been passionate about sport and from a young age participated as and when I could at school. At 7 years old I joined a local rugby union club. My passion for rugby took me to State level playing union and league for SA from the u14s through to the u18s team. When I finally stopped as a player I got involved coaching school rugby at a local Primary school.

I went straight to University at the end of my schooling and graduated in 2012 with a BSc in Human movements and health studies. This was a great experience and allowed me to further expand my knowledge about the human body and it taught me how to provide the best training for a range of individuals. My degree gave me the confidence and the passion to further my knowledge. I am currently studying a Masters degree in Sports Science, specialising in strength and conditioning which is due to finish in 2014.

As far as my own training goes, before crossfit I was your typical commercial gym member who was stuck in the same old routine with minimal results. . I discovered crossfit by accident while flicking through TV channels and stumbled upon the Crossfit Games. I looked up crossfit and started completing some workouts at the local gym. It wasn’t long before I was hooked and ended up at crossfit tenacity!

Just like Matt once I found crossfit I never looked back, it was definitely something I had never experienced before. The community at tenacity is something you could never find at a normal gym and everyone loves to have fun while trying to improve. Crossfit has pushed me to both mental and physical limits and I find myself constantly learning and striving to improve in all areas. I’m always looking to help our athletes push themselves and work hard to achieve results.

Qualifying as a crossfit coach has brought me a step closer to my hopes and ambitions for the future. As a coach there is nothing better than helping everyone to improve their own fitness and well being whilst trying to smash their own personal goals!
