This month's Member Spotlight is a familiar face to all: Say hello to Tu! It doesn't matter if you are a morning person or an evening person, you have definitely seen Tu, as he is at the box multiple times a day!

If we could describe Tu in one word, it would be consistent. He is at the gym day in and day out, and always with a big smile on his face. In the gym, Tu is calm and composed. He 
knows what he is capable of, and he scales his workouts appropriately to meet his goals. He isn't pressured to go heavier or complete something RX. He makes sure he is moving safely and correctly at all times. And it works! We have seen Tu get stronger and move more efficiently over the last six months he has been a member. Tu is goal oriented, and always trying to better himself. Not only does he put the work in, he is always reading about athletic performance and accomplishments, and how to meet his goals.

On a personal note, Tu is a pleasure to have in the box. He is always ready to help out - putting away weights, and helping athletes get set up. Some coaches have even caught him tidying up the gym when no one else is around. Tu is quiet and humble. When we told him he was voted as the April Member Spotlight, he said he needed to get better at CrossFit before he could be featured. We politely disagreed, and think he is a fantastic example of an athlete who works hard for himself, and shows kindness and compassion for those around him.

In Tu's own words:

"CrossFit Tay Ho is like my second home"

Tu's interview is short and sweet, but highlights exactly the kind of person Tu is: Goal-oriented with a community mindset. Read on to find out some of his favorite moments at CrossFit Tay Ho and how he feels about being part of this amazing community.
