Khoa is our well deserved Member of the Month!
If you’ve ever walked into a 7:00 AM or 3:30 PM class and been greeted with a big smile and a cheerful “hello,” chances are you’ve met our June Member of the Month — Khoa!
Since joining us in January 2024, Khoa has been a consistent source of positivity and energy in the gym. Whether it’s chatting with new members, cracking jokes between sets, or showing up for community events, Khoa brings a contagious vibe that makes Croga feel like home for everyone.
Over the past month, he’s really dialed in his consistency — hitting the gym about 4 times a week and diving into the lifting classes he loves most. And let’s not forget the numbers: this guy can back squat well over 300 lbs with some of the best mobility we’ve seen.
We’re stoked to have you as part of the Croga crew, Khoa. Keep showing up, lifting heavy, and spreading those good vibes — you make this place better!
Way to go, Khoa—you’ve earned it!

Just working out with weights at home, jogging but I wanted to try actual pro coaching.
What was your first workout? First reaction to your first workout?
My first workout aside from the introductory workout was i think something to do with rowing and bar work, but man i was horrible at bar work.
What improvements have you seen in the way you look, feel and perform?
I was able to wall walk, I never thought I would be able to, I felt more light and athletic, and with my size, I learned a lot with how to stretch, how to control myself on the bar and jumping, My back was definitely stronger.
What days and times do you come to Croga?
Monday through Saturday, and usually 6am or 7am but recently I have been slacking, need to pick it up again.

The one involving bear complexes, squats, or any weightlifting, rowing workouts.
What’s your least favorite WOD?
Anything that involve upside down or bar grip, or jogging running, I dont know whats wrong with my foot when it comes to running.
“The KHOA” WOD! What would it be?
Hmm I dont know how to write a good workout but I think something involving bear complex, i like to have bear complex in a workout in any form and finish it off with moderate kettlebell squats till failure, I would like this playlist to be played during the workout as well
My Playlist ( shuffle and play, every song is intentional)

Doing the seal pose, child pose, couch, or just lying on the floor and looking at the lights.

Eating less rice and subbing it with green vegetables and whey protein is actually a god send.

Its the same when i entered croga, focus on eating healthy and having fun with it, PRs are just extras.
What do you love about this type of fitness?
I feel properly worked to the bone everytime i work out, and the variety keep me from being bored or complacent which is a problem for me previously working alone.
What words of advice do you have for new members or people considering joining Croga?
Just show up and do what you can, scale the workouts to your capability, and lastly try to have fun when you are breathing your lungs out, and relish the fact that you’re able to do the workout and lastly, keep being active.
Anything to add that we didn’t touch on yet?
Special thanks to the coaches for helping me and guiding me, I would never be here this long if it weren’t for you guys and gals.
