Each month the coaching staff at EHP selects a member that is “Better Than Yesterday!” The selected recipient is a great example of EHP’s CREDO—demonstrating compassion, honesty, resilience, perseverance, and tenacity. Tiffany Ness was selected as November’s “Better Than Yesterday” recipient.

Why did you start CrossFit?
Nicole Rousar was my rock and encouraged me to give it a try. Once I joined, my main motivation to start was to lose weight and build muscle.  In the past, my friends have referred to me as the “beast”.  Because I could lift things they wouldn’t even think of moving themselves.  Also, I want people to look at me and think “I’m not messing with her, she looks like she could kick my butt”.

Why do you continue CrossFit?
I love the variety of the workouts, my 5:15 gym buddies and the coaches.  Everyone is very encouraging and I can do things I never thought a woman in her mid 40’s could do and I never feel judged for not being able to do something

What has been your greatest achievement since starting EHP?
Being able to do a full wall walk.

How has your life changed since joining EHP?
I started prioritizing myself. After having kids I felt like I lost myself and I was just a wife and mother.  Now I am still those things but so much more.  I became a gym rat, I’ve learned the tools needed to lose weight and eat healthier and I’ve found a community of people at EHP that I genuinely enjoy hanging around. 

Anything else you would like to share about yourself, fitness journey and/or EHP.
I firmly believe that if I can do the workouts, anyone can.
