Client Stories: Anna Cappelli

Annaeddy Anna Cappelli is a force.


Yes, she's our womens' Deadlift Record-holder (300lbs.) Yes, she's incredibly strong; yes, she's done marathons before. She's also a true Leader at Catalyst. She's the first to sign up for anything new; she drives the daily blogs on the tracking software; she researches, reads, and questions everything. We keep her on her toes, she keeps us on ours. Last year, she won the female division in the Fire/Police/Military class at the Games.

Eddie and I are really trying to
work on the nutrition end of things. It’s been 4 weeks now that we are trying to
stay in the ZONE! I do feel better and my sugar cravings have decreased a lot.
This will definitely help with my WOD’s! As for the games, it’s just for fun and
I just want to do better than how I did last year. How will I know if I’ve
improved? I’ve succeeded if I can finish the games and not want to toss my
cookies. Last year, I remember finishing and just sitting on the big tire and
telling people not to touch me, I couldn’t move or I would be sick. (Not to
scare any first-timers or anything!) The games were quite an experience. So this
year… if I can recover and still feel like I can move when it’s all over, I have
met my goal.

Anna The type of WOD that is my
strength would have to be the heavy lifting or Olympic lifting especially ones
that emphasize leg work.

As for where I am the weakest,
that’s about everything else! I’m not a fast runner; I can’t do a real pull-up
and I literally whip myself when I’m trying to do double-unders. So let’s just
say I have many areas where I can improve.
