Ashley’s Journey: From Athlete to Coach, Leader, and Champion at CrossFit Loganville
Finding Her Place in CrossFit
For Ashley, fitness had always been a passion, but finding the right gym—a place that truly felt like home—was a challenge. She had previously trained at another CrossFit gym, but the lack of personalized coaching and scalability in workouts led to injury and frustration.
"I did CrossFit at a different gym, but they didn’t scale anything for me, and I ended up injured."
Ashley needed a gym that prioritized expert coaching, inclusivity, and a supportive community. That’s when a friend told her about CrossFit Loganville, which was searching for a new trainer. Despite her doubts about her abilities, she decided to take a leap of faith.
"Not being a good athlete and wondering if I would be judged on my abilities was a huge fear."
But as soon as she stepped through the doors of CrossFit Loganville, everything changed.
"I quickly loved it!"
From Athlete to Competitor: Building Strength and Confidence
Ashley didn’t just find a gym—she became a cornerstone of its community. Committed to both her coaching career and personal fitness journey, she dedicated herself to weightlifting, training 4-5 days a week, and occasionally joining CrossFit classes for extra conditioning. But her true breakthrough came when she focused on nutrition.
"Nutrition was a game-changer. When I started RP in 2022, I lost 30 pounds, dropped my body fat by 17%, and finally saw my abs. I love how I look in clothes. I feel better about my body at 37 than I did in my 20s."
By tracking macros, maintaining consistency, and prioritizing balanced meals, she transformed not only her physique but also her mindset. This dedication propelled her into competitive weightlifting, where she achieved remarkable success:
🏆 Dropped two weight classes in weightlifting
🏆 Competes and wins medals in her division
🏆 Three gold medals at local and state meets
🏆 Won two bronze medals at the USAW Virus Series 1 at the Arnold Sports Festival
Ashley’s competitive journey continues to push her limits, and she’s proving that dedication, smart training, and expert coaching lead to incredible results.

"We’ve always been like a family. I’ve met my most favorite people at CFL."
