John Peet started CrossFit in 2015 to train for his enlistment into the United States Army after a year playing college soccer. In 2018, he became a coach at gym outside of Fort Bragg while he was in the Special Operations, and has since coached at gyms in North Carolina, Texas, and Southern California. John was instantly drawn to CrossFit for its community aspect and the camaraderie you build when pushing each other day to day. And in 2024 when he moved to Los Angeles, he was able to find that family and sense of community within Nela Athletics right away. John loves to perform and teach gymnastic movements as it is a way that he believes helps everyone feel young and have a little fun during a grueling workout. John holds his CF-L1 and CF-L2 certificates.
