Ian Bala

Coach

Why did you get into fitness (and CrossFit)?

I got into it for the results I’ve seen and felt.  I stayed for the community you inevitably become a part of.  I love that we don’t specialize in anything, but instead try to be really good at all things fitness.  And who doesn’t like a good high five or a fist bump after a tough WOD.

Why did you become a Coach?

I’ve been a Personal Trainer and I also coach elite baseball.  While you don’t always get through to everyone, there are enough moments where you do see the light bulb or the switch come on in an athlete.  And to be a small part of an “A-ha” moment or a PR for an athlete, hear about all the positives going on because of fitness is great!

What’s your favourite movement?

Probably the Turkish Get Up.  It tests strength, mobility, stability, and takes you through all planes of movement.

What is your favorite cheat food?

I’d say a burger, but I have that pretty often.  So I’ll go with Dim Sum.  No particular dish, but the sum of all of it. I can for sure do some damage at a Dim Sum.

What’s your favorite Superhero and why?

Superman because he can do everything.  But if I could have one superpower I’d choose teleportation.
