“I want to set a good example for my daughter. By going to crossfit consistently, I’m hoping she sees that dedication and hard work and are essential in our lives and she adopts the same mentality.”
Fun Fact?
I run a lot of spartan races (hence the reason why all my workout clothes have the spartan logo). Much like CrossFit, I basically pay to torture myself.
“It’s easy to tell your kids to push harder in sports, but when they can see you do it yourself they might listen a little more. Showing up and putting in the effort are two things you can always control. If my kids see me do that when I’m working out or playing hockey, it gives me credibility. Add in the fact that I get to work out with Monica (who the kids can also see working hard) and the Ocho keeps me coming back for more. Plus Zumba was just too hard.”
Fun Fact?
I used to play competitive tennis and played at the D1 level in college.
John (and his wife, Monica) are both OG members since before day #1. 💪🏼
“Crossfit is a lifestyle for the Moyer house #5am. Having the kids see us committing to long-term fitness, gaining lifelong friends, and having fun while doing it is what it’s all about! Of course I would be remiss if I left out the accountability and self-awareness that Crossfit teaches. #CaptainNoRep”

How has CrossFit made you a better dad?
“CrossFit, like parenting, is humbling. You think you are doing it correctly, but there is always room for improvement and the learning never ends. I believe I’m a better dad because CrossFit shows my kids the benefits of a healthy lifestyle and how a strong community can create strong people. I also love seeing my boy in the teen class and watching his confidence grow daily.“
Fun Fact?
I moonlight periodically as “Neighbor Gary” on the John and Tammy morning show on KSON and I don’t really enjoy county music. 😂
