Megan Parsons
“Ranked by Austin Fit Magazine as one of Austin’s 10 fittest people”
Megan Parsons, a Certified Level 1 CrossFit Instructor, has certifications in CrossFit Nutrition, CrossFit Kettlebell, CrossFit Mobility, Underground Strength Training, and Trigger Point, and is also Personal Training certified through Cooper Institute. Megan is the Managing Director and Coach of Relentless Boot Camps for CrossFit Central. She received her degree from Baylor University with a BS in Exercise Physiology/Health Promotion and received a Masters in Exercise Physiology from Texas Tech University.
Following graduate school, Megan moved to Austin, TX to pursue a career in corporate America in the healthcare market research industry. Three years later she realized the cubicle lifestyle and lack of physical activity was not what she envisioned for her life. Her true joy came when she was being active, having fun, full of energy, and truly making a difference.
Megan then made a complete career switch and joined the forces at CrossFit Central in January 2009 and never looked back. Her entire life has been filled with sports and fitness, including running cross country, track, playing basketball, and lifting weights. Now she lives the lifestyle she dreamed of when she completed college.
Megan recognizes the importance of balance in one’s life and encourages everyone she meets to embrace the same philosophy and removing the all or nothing attitude. Balance encompasses every bit of being a Showout. If Megan is not having fun competing, working, playing, then she will find a way to mix it up. Megan lives by the quote, “Never forget that each new day is bringing you closer to your dreams.”
I chose Total Nutrition due to the credibility, education, and knowledge of the invididuals working at the store. These guys know exactly what they are talking about and do not try to “sale” you. Every product I have used, I loved. My all-time favorite is the Intek Whey Protein powder. It is my go-to supplement directly after a workout, and when I am on the go and need protein immediately.
