You can always start: Janneke
Janneke walked into CrossFit Leiden for an intake. A class was going on.
“How am I ever going to do this?”
Janneke tells the story (95 seconds)
People start somewhere
At that time Janneke had two grandchildren, and one thought: “I have to do something about this.”
The coach who did the intake was calm about it.
“You’re going to be okay. People start somewhere.”
Small changes
Three years later Janneke told the story on camera. There was no diet. Just small changes.
“They just change little bits in your food and in three years time I lost 34 kilograms with a lot of pleasure, a lot of fun, no dieting, no frustration.”
“It’s like total freedom.”
No age for this
Janneke was 56 when telling this story. And clear about it.
“There is no age for this. You can always start doing this because it’s on your own level.”
A group class has at most 14 people. “Everybody trains on their own level and everybody helps you.”
Just one person
Why tell this on camera? Because of what it did.
“If I can motivate just one person with this video I’ll be completely happy because it changed my life.”
And one tip: really listen to what the coaches say and teach you. “If you really listen then it’s life-changing.”
There is no age for this.
