For the month of March we’d like to congratulate Jeff Ragone on being the spotlight athlete! Jeff has been a member at CFR for several years now. Jeff always comes to class with a positive attitude, always friendly to new athletes, and always takes cues from the coaches. He knows when to push a littler harder during workouts but also scale when needed. And knows the importance of mobility and warming up. Jeff continues to get stronger and stronger. We couldn’t be prouder to have him apart of our CFR family!
Age: 52
