Athlete of the Month



Dan Faby

What's your favorite WOD?

Isabel and Grace are goodies. Any WODs that have me drop to the floor after im done are the best.


How about your favorite food/snacks? Nothing beats a big porterhouse steak. As for snacks the list is endless but ice cream, cookies, and cheesecake to name a few. Bacon!!!


What is the craziest workout outside of CF you have ever done?

I dont know if this counts since it is crossfit related but the 24 in 24 challenge created from Mike P's evil mind, completing 24 hero wods in 24 hours (heavy scaling used) sounds absurd but it was for a great cause and i loved every minute of it!

What’s your least favorite WOD?

Fran but i want to make it my favorite eventually. 


Favorite lift/movement?
Cleans mainly hang power and its always fun doing muscle ups and rope climbs.

What’s your least favorite lift/movement?


Thruster but hopefully ill learn to enjoy them.



What skill do you want to work on in 2013 the most ?

Squat, squat and more squatting.

Whats your favorite piece of workout "gear"?

So much gear its not right but i love my wrist wraps and mobility floss.


What you say is your biggest improvement since starting CF?

Just my overall performance and mental toughness. If i can push myself to do one more rep or be a few seconds faster when my body wants to give up i feel i can handle most other things in life.


Who is your favorite coach?

All the coaches are great and they have helped me out so much. Since im usually at the box in the late afternoon im mainly around Paul, Vinny, and Keith i just thought of this but they could be like the three stooges of the box, yes i know who they are im not to young for the stooges! Oh and how can you not enjoy the Vinnyisms!

PR's to mention? Goals Reached? Nutrition highlights?...

PR's 190# snatch, 2:25 Isabel, 2:44 Grace i hope i can shave a few seconds off those times now though. The custom meals are awesome!

3 Stooges, that's great. Congrats Faby, this is an honor bestowed on people who put in great effort, no matter what the results are, but you happen to also have some great improvement over the year. Your quiet determination does not go unrecognized and you are always looking to improve. Never become complacent, always strive to be better.
