James Rudyk

James started CrossFit in 2014 when a friend got him a Groupon to try CEF. He started working at the front desk in 2015 and started coaching in 2017. James’ love for coaching comes from helping members make progress towards their fitness goals, seeing people “show up, push and challenge themselves, and get better.” Especially when they are moving toward more complex movements like double unders, pull-ups, and 1 rep max lifts.

Favorite thing about CEF:
CEF is much more than just working out or going to the gym, for me, CrossFit at CEF has become a way of life and helped me, someone with no formal previous fitness experiences, become healthier mentally, physically, and emotionally, as it could for others too!
