On behalf of everyone at CrossFit Chateau, we’re excited to recognize Joel Lennox as this month’s Member Spotlight!

If you’ve ever taken a class with Joel, you know exactly why we chose him. He’s one of the biggest encouragers you’ll ever meet. Whether you’re finishing first or grinding through your last few reps, Joel is always there cheering you on. His positivity, kindness, and support for others embody everything CrossFit Chateau is about.

Joel and Lynly have been an incredible part of our community for the past few years, and we’re grateful for the energy they bring every time they walk through our doors.

Joel’s Journey

“Lynly and I started doing CrossFit-style workouts with a trainer many years ago before eventually making the switch to CrossFit. We loved the sense of community and camaraderie.

One thing that really impressed me was seeing how much the pros cheered each other on at the CrossFit Games. I’d never seen another sport where the top athletes did that. That level of sportsmanship really stuck with me, and it’s something I always want to bring into every WOD. What better way to work out than to enjoy yourself and the people around you?

After a little gap from CrossFit, we joined CrossFit Chateau a few years ago and realized how much we loved it all over again.

I love visiting other CrossFit gyms when I travel and have been to many around the country. I can say for certain that CrossFit Chateau is really special. You’ve created an extremely welcoming atmosphere, and to me, that’s the most important thing.

Lynly and I look forward to Saturday mornings at 8:30 with Dawn and everyone in class. We love starting our weekend that way and going out for coffee afterwards!”

Joel, thank you for being such an important part of what makes CrossFit Chateau feel like home. We’re grateful to have you and Lynly as part of our family! ❤️💪
