Over the past 10 years, it’s given me a career, a purpose, and a home. What I love most are the people. CrossFit has brought incredible individuals into my life, allowed me to compete on the world’s biggest stages, and leave a mark alongside the fittest humans in history. I’ve been lucky enough to travel the world and meet the amazing individuals who make up our community, and for that I am forever grateful.”
2. She Rows
In a recent Instagram post, Toomey is seen using a rowing machine. According to The Cleveland Clinic, this has a lot of benefits. “Like running or a session on an elliptical, rowing is a full-body workout. But unlike those activities, you don’t have to stand to do it. That means less pressure on your legs and more work for your upper body…Your abdominal muscles, lower back, obliques, glutes and hamstrings all get a workout during a session on a rowing machine. If you follow proper form, your core will be engaged during every single step of the rowing process. Strengthening those muscles is also key to maintaining stability and building speed.”
