Project Description

Nicole has only been doing Crossfit for little over a year.

Last year she competed in the regionals for the first time after only starting Crossfit a few weeks prior to the competition and was knocked out in the third round.

This year Seymour meant business, training for the first time with a Crossfit coach, Blaize Swiegers.

“Blaize was such a huge help training me, watching what I ate, helping me stretch, knowing what I was physically capable of and when to push my limits,” said Seymour.

“I had improved so much within the last eight weeks before regionals because of him.”

Seymour had a really strong and successful second day at regionals.

She lifted 10 pounds heavier than she had trained in one of the events, surprising herself by lifting over 62 kg when she had been training with only 50kg.

“I was told that I must have been the happiest second place finisher they have ever seen,” said Seymour.
