June 2024 Athlete of the Month

Tony P.

The DBCF Community thrives on its members and their contributions to the gym and each other. This is done on so many levels by all members but very few are foundational pillars of DBCF. Tony is one of the DBCF pillars and original members. “Coach” Tony has put in countless hours in the gym wodding and in helping other member improve. These are the constant truths about Tony: you can always find him 1) under a barbell 2) hanging from the rig 3) laying on the floor 4) quietly coaching 5) sharing a joke and a smile even after the worst wods.
