Andrea Wilt

Growing up, Andrea participated in a variety of team sports purely for movement and fell prey to the motto of the day, “thin is in,” which led to a decade-long battle with eating disorders. She found long-distance running in her late twenties and completed 20 marathons, some of them as a coach with the Leukemia Society’s Team in Training program.

In 2012, having never picked up a barbell, she joined Tangletown CrossFit for a new challenge and has never looked back. It was here she realized the benefits of strength training, functional fitness, proper nutrition to fuel a body, and the power of community. This led to Andrea pursuing her L1 helping others realize the benefits of consistency in training, proper movement and fun.

Now in her 50’s – yes 50’s! – she is in better shape than a decade ago and is most passionate about helping middle-aged women like herself understand the importance of building strength and that age is not a limiting factor for anyone.

When not in the gym, Andrea can be found coaching attorneys in her other line of work, spending time with her three mostly adult children, gardening, dancing and being active with nearly any activity outside.
