Dayron tried various fitness programs but his weight climbed to over 275 lbs. Then he found CrossFit and hasn’t looked back since. Since then, Coach Dayron has kept (and in some cases surpassed) his physical strength feats while eliminating over 75 pounds of body fat off of his frame. Coach Dayron now shares the accumulated wisdom with his Clients as they move closer to their fitness and fat-loss goals.
