Today we’d like to introduce you to Alondra Mendoza
Hi Alondra, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
When I was in college my siblings had all signed up to a CrossFit gym. Unfortunately I couldn’t afford a membership, so I would just go watch them workout. One year later, my brother decided to open up his own gym. I was asked to come try out the gym, and ended up being put into a team workout with two men who had been doing CrossFit for years. Let’s just say it hurt to laugh or sneeze. After one week of soreness, I decided to give it another try. After that I loved the gym, the people, the environment. About three years into being a regular member, I was asked to take on a Manager position. I decided to take on the challenge and attempt to make it a great business. After a year of running the place, I decided to put myself out of my comfort stage, and go for my CrossFit certification. This opened up my perspective of the sport and made me fall in love with it in more ways than I could ever imagine. The amount of individuals that I get to impact on a day to day business just by interacting and training them at the gym, is just an unexplainable feeling. I truly feel that my purpose in this life is to impact as many individuals as possible whether that be through CrossFit, work, friendships, or a simple smile.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
This has not been a smooth road. Just like an new task at hand, there will always be difficult situations to face. The best way to handle it is trial and error. You try something out and if it doesn’t work, you learn from it or make changes until you get it perfect.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?

Is there something surprising that you feel even people who know you might not know about?
Something surprising about me is that I was suppose to be a twin. My mother delivered myself, a bag with amitotic fluid, and a placenta.
