About Leslie Manning
Certifications
CF-L1, Adaptive Certification
I’ve been doing CrossFit for a little over 4 years now. I started taking CrossFit classes during Covid over zoom. Once everything opened back up I got involved in a box in North Carolina. It wasn’t long after that I pursued my L1 and Adaptive Certification.
My mission is simple - to show that no obstacle is too great when passion meets perseverance.
I’ve worked alongside the WheelWOD team in the adaptive space for 5 years now and am very passionate about adaptive fitness. At WheelWOD, I am in charge of operations and logistics for events as well as head of athlete relations. My goal in coaching CrossFit is to help athletes discover their potential and push past any perceived limits. You are far more capable than you think you are, sometimes it just takes a little nudge!
Outside of CrossFit I own a photography company and have recently released an adaptive fitness coloring book with my sister on Amazon! I have a Great Dane Mastiff named Piper who is the sweetest gentle giant. Also some of you may know Josh, recently earning the title Fittest in the World in his division, or have seen him dropping into CF Bear. He’ll be around too when he’s in town.
I am so excited for the opportunity to coach at CF Bear. You each are such an important part of the community and I cannot wait to get to know you better and be a part of your fitness journey.
