February POM: Natalie Beyranevand

Congratulations to Natalie for being February's Prototype of the Month! Below, she shares his experience with Prototype, what drives her, and the goals that keep her motivated.

1.) Share your experience at Prototype.
I have been at Prototype for a little over a year but started doing drop-in classes prior to that. Every time I dropped into class, I was welcomed and felt really at home, which prompted me to join after a 4 year Crossfit hiatus.

2.) What is your favorite part about being at Prototype?
I really love the camaraderie and the way everyone supports and encourages each other. The energy and joking of the 5am class is what motivates me to get up at the crack of dawn to workout each week.

3.) What are your hobbies and activities?
I am obsessed with traveling and travel planning! I really enjoy running and hiking, especially with friends. I also really love my job and furthering my education and career.

4.) How has Prototype helped you or solved a problem for you?
Prototype has helped me to love Crossfit and working out in a group again.After a 4 year hiatus and working out by myself, I am really enjoying the way that the classes and people motivate me to work on my weaknesses and to push myself further than I would alone.

5.) What are you continuing fitness goals to this point?
I want to get back to doing pull-ups and toes to bar again without struggling and despising them so much.

6.) Favorite Quote
Don’t just aspire to make a living, aspire to make a difference. -Denzel Washington
