Meet Kenny!

"Hi everyone, my name is Kenny Speak. I grew up in Melbourne, Australia and moved to the United States back in 2014. I went to school at Endicott College and have lived/worked on the North Shore ever since.

What's your best travel experience?
My first golf trip. I went to Scottsdale last year and have a trip to Myrtle beach booked for this year

What is your dream car?
My Red 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage

What was your first CrossFit accessory purchase?
I bought my grips and my jump rope together so I could get free shipping⚡️

What advice would you give to someone who wants to start CrossFit?
Try it, and if you’re still not sure try it again. It took me a few of classes over a couple of years to realize what CrossFit is all about. Give it a chance and go into it with an open mind🙌

Boom 💥 Quarterfinals is the next stage of the 2023 CrossFit Open Season

CF1A wants you to meet Jenny!

"I live in Salem with my hunny Chris. We have a daughter, Prestin, who is 23yo, and a son, Cage, who is 21yo. Chris and I own a small construction company, C. LeBlanc Contracting Inc., that focuses on remodels, renovations, and additions in the north shore. As well as working at CLC, I also work at my family's business, E. W. Hobbs, making popcorn. That still sounds funny to me. I love when strangers ask what I do and I reply, 'I make popcorn.' People can't control their faces and it's hilarious.

Fun fact: I love to knit.

I started CrossFit in 2016 and made my way to CF1A in July of 2021. I started because I never lifted weights before and I wasn't getting any younger. I wanted to learn the movements and form, and I did, but I also got some of my now bestest of friends. There's something special about suffering alongside one another and them cheering you on, giving you what you need to get through it. Over time you develop a bond with people who are also dedicated to the process. You get to watch them achieve goals both inside and outside the gym. If you do it right, these walls are magic and nothing but good things happen in here. Then this trickles out into your everyday life.

The best part of CrossFit is anything but the assault bike.

This year I'd like to get at least one chest to bar pull-up.

I love wall walks. All the wall walks. The more the wall walks the better.

If you're thinking about trying CrossFit just think about getting through the first class. I remember feeling overwhelmed. I regretted telling friends because of their negative opinions, even though they never tried CrossFit - they were wrong. I didn't know where to park or where exactly the gym was in the building or what sneakers to wear. But after that first day I knew what I was doing a little bit more. I'm still learning and progressing almost 7 years later. At the end of the class I alway think of my friend Kendra who likes to say "look what we all did today." Where else in your day do you walk away feeling proud of your physical achievements? It's the best hour of my day. " 🖤

It’s that time ☃️ reminder to bring a change of shoes to workout in so we can keep our floors clean when you do your push-ups 😉 also - make sure your text messages are on in case we need to get in touch quick!❄️

📸Thanks for the awesome snap!

Everyone, meet Jillian!

“Hi! My name is Jillian Melito! I was raised in Winthrop and moved to the Northshore in 2019. I work for the Department of Public Health as a Contracts Manager. I am one of three, I have a younger brother and an older brother. A fun fact about me is that I want to venture on a summertime cross country road trip! I joined CrossFit Route 1A in May. My favorite thing about joining CrossFit Route 1A has been the welcoming community who have turned into great friends and the confidence I have gained in my abilities.”

Dumbbell or Barbell? Barbell!

“My hobbies outside the gym include reading, writing and spending time with my family and dog, Ryleigh!”

“My favorite restaurant in Beverly is Soma! I highly recommend THE Espresso Martini and the mushroom ravioli’s!”

“My advice to anyone who wants to start CrossFit is that you can always achieve whatever you put your mind to. Even though some things may feel as though they are impossible, does not mean that they are impossible. Have confidence in your goals, have a positive attitude and take pride in your achievements.
It all starts with just showing up!”

Jillian is one of the first people in the door for our 6am class. She’s eager to start her morning off right with her buddies, and eager to get better each day! 💪🏻

What’s your best travel experience?

“Going to Iceland because it is the most beautiful place I have ever been. The waterfalls were something out of a movie, and I actually snorkeled between two tectonic plates”.

What’s your favorite movie/show?

“My favorite show is Survivor and I would love to go on it someday!”

Favorite music to listen to during a workout?

“My favorite artist is Taylor Swift and I could listen to her during anything- steam Midnights on Spotify”.
