The facility is in a great location with private parking lot that’s great for running workouts. They also have plenty of equipment/barbells and weights.

Brandon Burns

COACH

I had never considered myself to be an athlete or athletic. I did not play any team sports in high school and my only workouts were in my martial arts. It wasn’t until I was in the military that I got interested in working out. Even then it was only pull-ups, push-ups and sit-ups with a little weightlifting.  After leaving the military I started training in Jiu Jitsu, boxing and kickboxing to stay busy.  My training eventually led me to coaching, which I truly enjoy.

 

I discovered CrossFit when one of my Jiu Jitsu gym members talked me into competing in the CrossFit Open, which is an annual test of fitness in the CrossFit community.  I accepted the challenge and signed up!  Needing a box to officially compete, I found CrossFit Equality to do the workouts. I still remember completing that first workout, named 20.1, and thinking that was the worst feeling ever. My Lungs were on fire and my muscles hurt.  At the end of that first workout, I was physically unable to talk to anyone. But I kept coming back week…after…week.  When the Open was over I realized that I had enjoyed CrossFit so much I decided to become a member. I really benefit from it mentally and physically but, more importantly, I get a lot of personal growth from helping others to reach their fitness goals.  I like the community at CFE and, enjoy watching everyone have fun while improving their overall health and fitness.

COACH

Have you ever heard the quote, “You have to hit rock bottom in order to turn things around?”

In December 2009, my 6’1” frame stood on the scale staring in disbelief at the number before me…. 335 lb. I hit my rock bottom that day at the age of 26, and following the purchase of a bicycle, I set off on my journey to physical improvement.

Over the next two years, my fitness level and overall health improved with my new interest in cycling. I met many personal goals and enjoyed great pride in my accomplishments, which include my first MS-150 bike ride from Houston to Austin in April 2010, and my first half-marathon at the Aramco Houston Half Marathon the following January (2011).

Even though I had come quite far, I also found myself very unsatisfied with my physical appearance. I hit a plateau at 250 lb. and remained there for over a year and a half. I was particularly frustrated by my inability to achieve additional weight loss or further improve my body composition via muscular gains. By early 2012, my weight climbed to 265 lb. due to my frustrations.

Fast forward to May 2012, and I found myself standing in my CrossFit class. I did not know what to expect, but I was greatly inspired after observing a CrossFit competition the previous week.

CrossFit quickly became an integral part of my lifestyle and I was a changed man through those 3 classes a week. I knew that I wanted to coach someday and help others defeat their personal struggles in the same manner CrossFit allowed me to overcome my own.

After relocating to CrossFit Equality in February 2013, my desire to coach became much stronger while training under CFE’s ownership. I knew that I wanted to be a part of the awesome things happening here at CFE.

Today, I am 185 lb., but more importantly than the number, I am in the best shape of my life. Now that I am one of the CFE coaches, my goal is to help all members obtain their personal goals and experience all the successes the CrossFit lifestyle has to offer

Kellee Webb

COACH

Exercise and being active and healthy has always been important to me. Combine that with my career in HR and passion for helping others, I also felt like it was part of my calling to support others in achieving their goals. In 2009 I became a certified Pilates instructor in order to bring in a wellness program for my current employer and have been hooked on instructing/coaching ever since. When I first walked into CrossFit Equality in March of 2014, it was exciting and a bit scary all at once! At the time, I was lifting weights at a globo gym and training for and running multiple half-marathons a year. In addition to running, I also really enjoyed the camaraderie of group HIIT or boot camp classes. After my first WOD, I was still nervous, but I was all IN, I knew this was what I was missing!
I enjoy CrossFit because there is always a new challenge, always another potential achievement around every corner. I’ve learned gymnastic skills I never learned as a kid and my weightlifting and endurance are consistently increasing. I LOVE tracking progress over time and seeing how you improve. It’s changed my focus from what my body looks like to what it can do. Most importantly for me, I enjoy supporting and watching the progress of my CFE family, which is why I made the decision to become a coach. Trisha has built an inclusive community for members and a coaching team who are focused on helping athletes sustain a healthy lifestyle and achieve their fitness goals. I’m excited to be part of the team!

COACH

You name it, I’ve played it. I enjoying doing anything that is different, challenging, or fun.

I grew up in a small town and we played sports all-day, every day, and that led to a track scholarship to Texas A&M University as a pole vaulter. That is where my coaching first started. The pole vault is a highly technical sport and we had to help each other improve all the tiny techniques to improve our performance.

After college I transitioned to distance running and completed numerous half marathons and one full marathon (which I’ll NEVER do again). I still love running, but wanted to find a more challenging sport, which led to triathlons. I really liked the variety that offered me, but a wreck on my bike resulted in neck surgery.

After my neck rehab was completed, I was still looking for a challenge. I get bored really easily, so a friend introduced me to CrossFit in 2015. My first CrossFit class was at CrossFit Equality and I was hooked. I love the variety and the challenge CrossFit offers, and I especially love the atmosphere and community CFE offers. 

I’ve always loved helping others and coaching, so it was a natural progression for me to become a coach at CFE. I enjoy working with our members, guests, and community at-large to find fitness and health, as well as challenge ourselves to become better.

Nikki Newton

COACH

My entire life has evolved around sports and fitness. My father was a professional football player turned coach for over 40 years, as well as my mother who coached for most of her teaching career. My brother played collegiate football at TA&M.  My earliest memories from grade school are spending summer vacations with my Dad in the high school weight room and watching game film to get ready for next football season.  I started playing competitive softball then transitioned to Volleyball, basketball and track in high school.  Due to injuries I did not play competitively in college but I did participate in intramurals!! You name the sport and I was playing it!  I also got certified to officiate because I could not get enough. 

After college, I too, was a member at a Globo Gym.  After years of playing sports and endless hours of practice, running and working out there was no way I could stop now.  I truly enjoy working out and feeling strong. So, for years I looked for new programs and exercise routines to keep it fresh and keep me motivated.  Finally, one day I heard of CrossFit.  I saw a few pictures on Facebook but it took me two years to work up the courage to actually walk in the door for a no sweat intro.  I already had a home gym with everything I could need (or so I thought).  But, in June of 2014 I walked into CrossFit Equality. Best decision I could have made for my future self.

The family at CFE was truly welcoming and the environment pushed all my fears away.  And talk about variety and keeping it fresh.  The workouts are always challenging and constantly changing.  It is an all-inclusive environment where everyone is doing the same workout but adjusting for their individual fitness levels. What I find most fascinating about Crossfit is that the loudest cheers are for those that finish last.  This is what clinched it for me.  I knew I wanted to be a part of this positive and life changing environment so I decided to become a coach.  I want to be involved in the positive transformation that changes the lives of our members.  I love watching the member’s achieve new PR’s, conquer complex movements and reach for goals they thought were unobtainable.   I love every minute of it.

Anthony Techeira

Coach / Customer Experience Manager

Physical fitness did not become a priority of mine until college.  Influenced by one of the greatest instructors of all time, I found my niche in the field of sports science.  Starstruck by how much a single person could impact a group of individuals, I decided to dive into my teachings and learn as much as I could for as long as possible.  I am currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology at the University of Houston to further my studies in an effort to reach more people in need.

Before college I trained in almost every sport, from football to boxing to aerobics – specifying my training to meet the requirements of the sport.  However, I often lost my motivation to succeed because the results just weren’t there.  Of course, it was partially my fault.  I lacked a solid understanding of how significantly nutrition impacted my progress.  CrossFit is the only sport, in which I have participated, where nutrition is regularly discussed in training.

For me, CrossFit has been the most physically and mentally demanding sport.  It is a test of overall fitness – speed, strength, agility, gymnastics and everything in between.  As an athlete you may never be great in all aspects of fitness, but though CrossFit you’ll be good at all of them.  Becoming a coach has helped me push the boundaries of what I only dreamed of accomplishing.  Moving forward, I continue to learn, I continue to train and strive to be the best version of myself to inspire those around me.

Trisha Barnes

OWNER / COACH

I have always been a driven individual, though I often struggled with motivation when it came to exercise.  I sampled multiple gyms and various programs over the years and just never found any interesting or effective enough to keep me coming back.  At some point, I began hearing stories about CrossFit and thought why not give it a try. In January of 2014 I made the decision to walk into my first CrossFit class (and yes, I was nervous).  I was immediately embraced by a community of athletes that cared. They helped me celebrate my achievements but also encouraged me to overcome my failures.  Not long after joining I began seeing results.  Sure, I lost weight and certainly gained muscle, but what I didn’t expect was the change in my overall well-being. I was invigorated and I continued to be inspired by those around me. I found myself eager to return day after day and I’ve been doing exactly that…for years.  

CrossFit has truly changed my life.  Now, as the owner of CrossFit Equality, I have the pleasure of introducing this opportunity to others that might also be struggling to find “their fit”.  I am beyond excited to provide a space where enthusiastic individuals can gather in their pursuit of a healthier/happier tomorrow.
