Bio
Chance Wilging has been an athlete his entire life. He started on the soccer field at five years old and continued to play through high school on a state bound team with Chippewa High School.
After high school Wilging was introduced to CrossFit and fell in love with the gymnastic skills involved which came naturally to him! Wilging can often be found at the box stringing together as many muscle-ups as possible!
Although Wilging enjoys practicing gymnastics skills, he believes that practicing all other CrossFit movements (involving pushing, pulling, rowing, running, etc.) have helped him become a better athlete overall. After his first competition the excitement lit a fire that continues to fuel his training. He recommends that athletes of all levels compete for the fun of it and to experience a WOD with teammates.
He also encourages athletes to set goals with a specific deadline in order to push themselves to their fullest potential – and as a coach he enjoys helping people reach those goals!
