John Nicknish
Crossfit L1 Certification
Biography
I grew up in spring, TX and went to the University of Texas at Dallas where I received my bachelors degree in mechanical engineering. I’ve played soccer my whole life and ended up going getting to play soccer at the university as well. My oldest brother introduced me to CrossFit when I was 14 and I immediately felt a pull towards it. I’ve been doing it ever since! I found CrossFit igneous when my gym close to home closed. The atmosphere is UNMATCHED. The people, the coaches, the programming is not like anything I’ve ever seen at any other gym I’ve been to. I quickly made friends with so many people and this place has become a second home to me. I got interested in coaching when I started to see my own results after doing technique drills. I wanted to share my knowledge with everyone around me struggling in the same areas that I was. After getting my L1 I quickly realized how much fun it is to help people get instant results with something as small as a simple cue. Seeing the smile on their faces and their confidence build after just one class is a feeling I’ll always chase. I’m always learning more with the help from Matt and I’ll always strive to be a better coach for everyone in it.
