I have been involved in some type of fitness my whole life. I started doing CrossFit with my husband, Chris, in 2010 (became CF level 1 & USAW Level 1 certified in 2012) which lead me to my love of Olympic Weightlifting. I currently hold a USAW Level 2 certification. I enjoy competing myself and currently hold a Florida State Record for the Snatch in my age/weight. I am planning to compete at Nationals and hopefully Worlds this year. I served as a Firefighter/Paramedic for over 25 years. Now I am excited to have the opportunity to share my of love of weightlifting as I use my knowledge and experience to coach others at all levels. I hope to contribute to the future growth of the sport, especially coaching youth athletes.

It all begins with an idea. Because of our love of fitness and helping others we have always wanted to own a gym. Already having a family and full-time careers as firefighters, it seemed impossible. Until we made our dream of having a garage gym a reality. FonockFit Barbell Club is a 1000 sq ft garage gym in Cape Coral, Fl. See our schedule and pricing for details. We want to share our love of weightlifting with you!

Chris and I started doing Crossfit in 2010. In 2012, he earned his CrossFit Level 1 and USAW Level 1 and has been coaching for 10 years. Currently he holds a USAW Level 2. From the beginning, Chris was an awesome Coach. He’s a natural. Chris is extremely patient and encouraging. Chris is an excellent programmer and things just click for him. Chris still works as a Firefighter for the Cape Coral Fire Department so he coaches part-time.
