Stephanie Lundgren
About
Stephanie was born and raised in Pennsylvania right outside of Philly. As a kid she was always outdoors and involved in sports, always worked out and went to the gym. Back in 2015 she tried a bootcamp class and even though she was a little hesitant, she’s been hooked ever since. After many years of bootcamp she wanted to try CrossFit. That’s when she tried a class back in 2018 and instantly fell in love.
When Stephanie is not coaching she loves spending time with her husband, children, and dogs. She loves to be outdoors whether it’s at the beach, poolside, walking, or playing with the kids. On the weekends she enjoys hanging out with friends and family.
Fun fact: I am a foodie and love to cook and bake.
Why I love coaching? I love helping people better themselves. It’s very rewarding to watch people progress over time. I believe exercise is just as important for your mental health as it is your physical health.
