Rhonda Hates Burpees

Double Under Master
Rhonda, FGB II
With CrossFit Director Josh Wells at a GSX Happy Hour


Meet Rhonda Felton, if you haven't already. Rhonda started CrossFit at GSX in March 2008 and comes from a background in running, and tennis (gotta love the outfits).

Rhonda hates burpees. "When I started I had NO upper body strength. I feel better about my upper body strength than ever before and love doing double unders and squats the most. I just feel stronger all the way around...nothing specific, but "feel" it!"

"The thing that I love the most, actually it was so unexpected, are the relationships and friendships that I have developed. Real relationships with people that I might have missed getting to know. This is what makes GSX great."

"I got my first pull-up with a group of people cheering me on...I could have NEVER done it without them. I showed up one morning early and my 6:00 AM friends could tell I was sad...they comforted me. I never expected THAT aspect of it, such a bonus. I feel like I am in on the best kept secret in Ft. Worth! I LOVE the people like Josh, Mo, Wes, Chuck, Tucker, Scott..the list goes on & on!"

Come join in on the best kept secret. We think you'll have fun and hopefully make a new friend or two.

I remember when Rho came in... She said wanted a workout to help lift her butt. She got more than that, she has done very well and she is not fluffy! ;')

Plus - everyone loves Rho! How could you not - she is sweet, kind, and warm with everyone she meets. And, she gives very good party, & social hour due to her organizational skills!

Keep up the good work Rho.

You are extraordinarily strong in many ways, inspiring, and you lift the spirits of everyone around you. I am glad that I have been able to get to know you.

I got yo back anyplace anytime my lil pint sized badass.

I love you!

Great story Rhonda. I'm glad I was your guinea pig to "try this thing out." It turned out to be GREAT for us both!
I'm just sad I lost you to the 6 am crew!
