There are so many reasons why we agreed that Camilla Gluckstein deserves to be featured as the CrossFit Salus November Athlete of the Month.

She’s been on our list for months, as she has overcome major obstacles this past year and always comes out on top. She just keeps improving so much each month, and now that she’s currently in Russia to compete in her 5th World Championships for Trampoline, it’s high time we brag on her profile!

One of Camilla’s best attributes is her amazing attitude. She’s positive, humble, kind, hard-working, encouraging to others, and eager to learn. She shows up each day with the attitude to be better than she was the day before, not comparing herself to others. These qualities have been the foundation of her ample success on the trampoline and in the box.

Thank you for inspiring us to “always try to give your best no matter what.”

I started CrossFit when I moved to the USA, Steven and Jeffrey used to do it after training and it was right at the CrossFit Games Open time and I couldn’t understand why they were competing and killing themselves EVERY week… Then Gino explained it to me, I thought it was weird but I started doing it 3x a week as conditioning part of my training and felt in love with it.

YUP, there is.

Being a “gymnast” they think you can do anything… they’re wrong haha.

I can do all the moves now, not pretty but … I learned in CF how to connect T2b, MU, HSPU & of course the barbell movements.

You don’t realize how much a change you made until you compare pictures.

I lost fat and build more muscles, is there anything better than that?

I tell all my friends to try it and I say they are going to hate if first and have doubts why they are doing it in the middle of a workout, but… the more they do it it’s like an addiction, you can’t stop.

I love the COMMUNITY, and how it keeps me on track with everything else (sleep, nutrition, mobility…)
Also I find there’s always something you can look forward to, such as learning a new movement, improving it, finding your weakness, work on it and…

lift : Clean and Jerk
WOD: Diane =)

The coaches and community are amazing, enjoy the process and have fun!

“Horse spirit animals are likely to represent your inner strength and driving force in life. A typical symbolism for the horse is one of an animal representing physical strength, vitality, but also our psychological or emotional ability to go on in life.
Depending on what this spirit animal means to you, it could symbolize your ability to overcome obstacles in life and pursue your goal no matter what may stand on your way.”

I am afraid of heights, LOL.
Yes, people have no idea about it and I jump 30 feet high on a trampoline but I can not look down through a window on a airplane or go to a top of a building and look down.
Not a funny or very interesting fact but a lot of people would never think that haha.
