Bo Buser
Coach at CrossFit Iron Horse

I grew up very into team sports, mainly basketball and soccer. I retired from semi-professional soccer in college after an illustrious and storied career and $517 in career earnings. I can’t make it too long without physical activity before I go stir-crazy so I quickly found “traditional” exercise as a replacement for sports. While I still enjoy a good bodybuilding session, it can be boring. I don’t remember how/why I first saw CrossFit on YouTube, but I knew that it would provide a better outlet for exercise that would be a little more captivating.

I drank the Kool Aid for the first time in 2016… and now I have a problem (haha). I really just love the tangible results in CrossFit: improving lifts and times in workouts are great measures of progress (and motivation). Seeing my Open percentiles change throughout the years is so cool to see. I started coaching in 2017 to help others find other signs of progress than harping on the scale… that drive led me to own a CrossFit gym as well in Colorado (COVID did a number on us). I’m excited to get to helping others meet metrics they never thought possible.
