Congratulations Pug!! Our July Member of the Month pick is in! Its Nick “Pug” Pugliese. Don’t miss his custom workout, later this month. Nick grew up in East Norriton, PA, just a few miles from CrossFit Conshohocken where he resides today. Or as he would describe it, seven red lights and two seemingly eternal construction zones away. At an early age Nick thrived in youth sports playing for multiple leagues and travel teams in Basketball, Baseball, and Football. In high school, he narrowed his sport to football which he enjoyed all four years. However, during high school his focus began to shift away from sports in general and towards working at his dad’s electrical contracting company amongst other things (parties). He attended Villanova University, where he graduated from the Villanova Business School. Throughout his time in college, he continued to work for the family business. After College, he maintained his...Read more

Growing up in Southington, Connecticut, John was immersed in sports from a young age. Throughout high school he found his stride in the comaradie of team sports, excelling in both football and baseball. However, upon his arrival in Philadelphia for a four year stint at St. Joes, his cleats gathered dust and weight rooms remained foreign territory until frantic pre-spring break efforts. It wasn’t until a year post-college that he recommitted to his physical well-being. Sampling various group fitness programs he finally discovered his niche in Crossfit. Since his inaugural class at CFC last May, where he almost broke his shin on a box-jump, he’s been proud of the progress he’s made. The supportive community, spirited competition, and attentive coaching has made every class an hour to look forward to. When John isn’t in a rush for the 7AM class, he’s spending time with his wife, Liz, and their newborn...Read more

Amanda’s Workout – Monday 4/29/2024 Amanda’s Story Amanda joined CrossFit Conshohocken (then Thermal) in 2019, when she was a freshman in high school. She tried many sports as a child, but most of the time was more interested in picking the flowers in the grass. Nothing really stuck until she joined CrossFit Conshohocken. When Amanda first started at the gym, she was not able to run 100 meters. Amanda’s introduction to CrossFit began by dabbling in private training and gives then Coach Tyler credit for teaching her all the fundamentals, and most importantly, igniting her passion for CrossFit. It took well over a year of private coaching, and a few setbacks, before she felt comfortable joining classes (typical 15-year-old girl worries). One of the principles at CrossFit Conshohocken is community. That was demonstrated immediately as so many members reached out to Amanda saying, “here is my number, call me anytime.”...Read more
