Burnett Crawford changed my life three years ago. At 28 years old I had gone through so much pain already in life. While serving in the marine corps I was injured in combat in Afghanistan April 15, 2008. I couldn’t walk for a year and three months. The years that followed were hell not just physically, but mentally. My mind was shattered, and my body was ruined. I was out of shape, and was in need of a jump start. That’s when I decided to join the gym.
I remember after meeting Burnett I was in awe of his physique, and dedication to fitness and health. I could truly tell he loved helping others. I told him I want you to make me into a superhero, and by God that’s what he did. I went from doing 5 minutes on the stairmaster to competing in my first mens physique competition in a year and 6 months.
He went on to Equinox Bethesda. There I continued to train with him day after day. Burnett helped me find a part of myself that I thought I lost, and am grateful to him for that. He taught me not only how to stay fit, but to push passed my limits as an athlete. My confidence rose from the dead, and I became unshackled from doubt, and misery. Burnett Crawford is an amazing trainer who takes some of his very own essence of life and shares it with his clients to get them motivated, dedicated and inspired.
