Vic Zachary Sr

Starts out I'm living in Amarillo TX. I decide to move back to Houston and start a CrossFit Box
My Dad, Sr, was weighing 254 lbs, he was sleeping at night with a machine, and on all types of pills. His first workout he lasted 3 mins. and he was done. I almost thought I killed my own Dad. I thought for sure he would never do it again. Man I was wrong, he was there every day. I never saw my dad work so hard. Once he got use to pushing his body hard, I throw the Paleo Diet at him. So now I got my dad, who also use to smoke, got him to change his life, working out and eating clean. The weight just started to drop. He started to enjoy life again. I even got a phone call from my Aunt, his sister, saying thank you , that's the brother I know, happy, funny and full of life. Before I came back to Houston, his life was waking up early early, work work work, home, eat, sleep, and do it again. CrossFit, Bayou City CF community, and myself saved Sr life, I truly believe that.

Now my dad is down to 204, he lost 50 lbs. He is CrossFit Lv 1 Certified, and is teaching his own class. No matter what happens with the Box my biggest accomplishment is what I have done for my Dad, and all I did was move back to Houston and gave him a little push.
