Episode #14: Barbara Kotler, 71 year-old CrossFitter
In this episode we talk with septuagenarian CrossFitter, Barbara Kotler. We discuss how Barbara started CrossFit just shy of her 70th birthday and how she feels it has improved her strength and function. She discusses how CrossFit has improved her ability to perform her activities of daily living as well as to participate in her hobbies such as cycling, gardening, and keeping up with her grandson (even backsquatting him!) She also talks about the role her Crossfit gym community plays in her life as well as how she has adjusted her living room into a home gym during COVID-19, including her own set of rings. We also discuss why Barbara thinks it is important for older adults to live an active lifestyle.
