Adrian Conway didn’t get into CrossFit to coach.
“I got into this sport to dominate other humans,” the CrossFit Seminar Staff Trainer says. “I wanted to pursue physical dominance; I wanted to be able to train hard and punish myself, and then go win and go be a champion.”
That’s what Conway — a five-time CrossFit Games athlete — had worked toward his entire life.
Today, Conway is a full-time coach — something he describes as “ironic,” given the original reason he started CrossFit.
“The community within this space, the hard work, the humility — all these things that I’ve had to grow in myself as I became an adult are what drew me to coaching,” he says. “Because people, when they walk into a CrossFit gym, they want something different for themselves; they want to be changed. And for me to help be the catalyst to that, to lead their journey, to help them make hard right choices over easy wrong choices … it was something that I never knew but would change me forever.”
