A Year at Sand and Steel Fitness

I’d like to share my transformation journey at Sand & Steel. I started with personal training a year ago to date, and started taking their CrossFit classes a few months later. One year later, I’m now in the best shape of my life and getting stronger everyday. Sand & Steel’s unique approach to personal training worked for me. I’m sure it’ll work for you too.
