Karen Worrall – Trainer
Karen is a certified CrossFit Level 1, CrossFit Kids, CrossFit Football and Level 2 Gym Instructor.
Karen found CrossFit in 2007 at CrossFit Manchester, and has been CrossFitting ever since. She says “Through CrossFit I have been introduced to a way of training that has completely changed my life for the better. I have never considered myself sporty and was bored by a regular gym – so much so that I never bothered going. With CrossFit I have achieved a level of fitness that I am very proud of and in a shorter time than I would have believed possible.”
Karen wants to bring CrossFit to as many people as possible and build a strong community at CrossFit Tameside.
