We are very excited to announce our Cynergy L.I.V.E. Member Spotlight — Charlie Nugent!
Charlie has shown such tremendous growth since he first started with us! His desire to try new things and continually challenge himself is inspiring to all of us. What an incredible example of fitness! Congratulations Charlie!!
What brought you into our Cynergy L.I.V.E. program?
My Grandson. Which is why he got coal in his stocking for Christmas.
What would you like us to know about you and your family?
They’re all pains except for my grandchildren who are angels. But I love them all.
What is one thing that we may not know about you?
I love working with Legos with my Grandchildren.
How long have you been Cross Fitting?
Since March last year. I remember it like it was yesterday and I didn’t even meet Joanne till two weeks after.
What is your favorite exercise and why?
Pushing the sled. Reminds me of racing my dog team at the Iditarod in the Yukon.
What are your current training goals?
Well, I think I’m too old for doing a triathlon. So, I’ll settle for getting up every morning.
What are your current life goals?
So, my youngest daughter is out of Pre-k this June. Would love to see them all graduate.
How has CrossFit impacted your life outside of the box?
It’s as much a social event as an opportunity to exercise.
How would you best describe Cynergy to others?
A fun way to exercise.
Any additional comments:
Seriously Cindy, you set the perfect tone for the sessions. You challenge us but support whatever we can accomplish. But Marty is like a Drill Sargent. LOL
L.I.V.E Member Comments about Charlie
I love having Charlie in our LIVE crew! He’s very quiet, a hard worker, and a pleasure to coach. His fitness level, strength, flexibility and range of motion have improved tremendously since he started. I am particularly impressed with how well he does with the Olympic lifts. Once he got the form down he’s a deadlifting, push-pressing machine! Underneath that quiet exterior there’s a little bit of prankster: Watch your beads (Joann!) or Charlie will add or subtract 5 more for each round to mess with your head! Just part of the fun and controlled mayhem of a typical LIVE class. Congratulations on being a Cynergy Spotlight Athlete, it couldn’t happen to a nice, more deserving gentleman!

Rick and I have noticed a huge change in Charlie’s ability since he joined our class. He is really missed when he doesn’t show up😢. Keep up the good work, Charlie👍

Charlie has inspired me since walking in the door the first time. He never says I can’t do this he always at least tries before saying anything. His progress every week it’s amazing. For example, his breathing, squatting and balance has improved since he started. I know Charlie has a lot more in him and I can’t wait to be able to experience it.
~ Coach Debbie Pierce
Charlie is such an inspiration! He is doing things he could not do when he first started the L.I.V.E classes. He is dedicated and hard working and it shows! No matter how difficult the workout might be Charlie always pushes through with a smile 😀
