Meet the Team: CrossFit Fareham’s Head of Programming – Sam Harlow

SAM1

Our very own ‘Purveyor of Fitness & Fun’. Don’t let Sam’s cheeky smile and easy going demeanour fool you; meet the man with the plan. Coach Harlow gives the people what they want and need.

Sam loves the intricacies of creating fitness content and we all love his work. Although we do also occasionally curse his name! He writes all of CFFs bespoke class programming. So, whether a 0600 early bird, or a PM devotee, if you’re in class, you’re at the mercy of this man’s mind. hahaha

If its Drills and Practice, Tests or Training, our athletes are never bored, always smiling, and we all see and feel the benefits of Sam’s dedication, passion and years of experience.

So, brothers and sistas (as the man himself would say), over to Sam.
