Marta makes lifting 235lbs. look easy.....

Setting a Personal Record

Setting a PR, or Personal Record is always an amazing feat, but doing so at 52 years is even more impressive as Marta pulls up a 235 Pound Deadlift after the wod today! Marta shows up consistently, knows nutrition is the foundation, and always brings a positive attitude to the box, never judging others or herself. She just shows up, does her best, and laughs! That is why she is "Marta the Great" and we love her at our box!!!
