MEMBER OF THE MONTH!JULIE ALVES

Where are you from? I have lived in both southern and northern California, but

claim Santa Clara as home.

How long have you been doing CrossFit? I hate admitting it, but I started in 2005. I have been on and

off for 15 years now.What brought you to CrossFit SolaFide?

I was doing the regular gym routine for a while and was getting bored. I had heard a lot of great things about SolaFide…and they had childcare which was a plus. I was pretty nervous coming into the gym, but everyone was really friendly.

What do you love most about CrossFit SolaFide? The people, hands down. I look forward to coming in

everyday. The people here get me and push me, that’s hard to come by.

What hobbies do you have outside of CrossFit? Haha! My three kiddos are my hobby. I can make a killer

bead necklace or extra glittery slime. Working out is my only hobby in this season of life.

What is something about you we might not know? This question is hard…um I am a pretty shy person until I get

to know someone. Danielle and Sam and the rest of the 9am crew have really helped me try to be more outgoing.

Who is your superhero? I am pretty lucky because I live with him. My husband has

gotta have some crazy superpowers to put up with me.What is your favorite CrossFit movement?

Deadlift. I am learning to like cleans, tooWhat motivates or inspires you?

A lot of other members inspire me. I love seeing people push themselves, it makes me push too. From the mamas coming back after having babies, to a member getting their first strict pull up, or the meatheads lifting crazy weights in the corner, they all have the same goal of getting better. That motivates me more than anything.

What is your best tip for new members? Just keep at it and listen to your coaches. We are really

lucky with the coaching and programming here, take advantage of it!
