What’s your name?
Jessica Hofherr
What is your height and weight?
5’4”, 155 lbsHow old are you?
27Where do you currently reside?
Ellicott City, MDWhat is your profession?
Air ForceHow did you get started into lifting weights and training?
I have always been athletic and into sports. I found CrossFit through the military; then I wanted to get stronger so I began squatting, deadlifting, and pressing about two years later.Were you athletic growing up?
Yep, I ran cross country, played softball, and I’m most proud of my BMX skillz at skateparks across California.What other sports have you done or are you currently doing?
I also play linebacker for the Baltimore Charm, Legends Football League (formerly Lingerie Football League).What are your goals in crossfit?
I’d like to compete next year and at least make it to Regionals individually. I’m plenty strong enough, it would just be nice to not be injured and be able to work at full capacity.In your opinion, what is your best bodypart?
My back is super definedDo you enjoy being strong? Why?
Fuck yes! People can tell I put hard work into it.Do you enjoy performing/competing?
Yep, I enjoy being super competitive, but there’s always room to grow. I love learning and whenever I’m in a competition, I get to test myself… highlight my strengths AND weaknesses. Nothing better.Why do you love lifting weights?
I don’t know exactly, there’s just something satisfying about being able to conquer a barbell. It’s something I’m naturally good at and squats just feel right.Tell us what a typical day is like for you.
A typical day involves me driving an hour to work, which I’m currently in a technical school for the Air Force. When I’m done, I drive back home and go to CrossFit Syndicate, where I coach a class, then get a workout in. On the weekends, I practice football with my team 4-5 hours each day.Do you like to show off your muscles when out in public or do you cover up?
Ha, I have no choice but to show them off. They’re giant, and I wear tank tops so I can breathe. In the winter though I like being comfortable and wear big sweatshirtsWhat misconception about crossfit/fitness/being muscular would you like to dispel?
One, that crossfit is not a cult – at my gym we’ve developed a foundation of members and coaches that feels like a family. Two, you really don’t have to be “in shape” to start crossfit. Just get moving.What kind of stuff would we find in the backseat of your car?
I have my shoulder pads and helmet for football, olympic lifting shoes, a new jar of MHP Dark Matter, and some Rogue stretching bands. Maybe some water bottles too.Favorite movie actor/actress?
Bruce Willis. Because Die Hard, duh.Person you would like to meet?
I would love to have heard General Patton speak. The man is an inspirational leader.Anything else we should know about you?
I don’t know, I love sports and I suck at dancing. Oh, and I’m single! hahahttp://tour.ftvideo.com/showgal.php?g=content/genex/profiles/JessHoffher/9486/2_1&s=4

ParticipantThese crossfitters continue to impress me. There seems to be a lot of hate towards what they’re doing. I don’t get it.

AlexGKeymasterThese crossfitters continue to impress me.
A couple of months back ESPN had a few hours coverage devoted to a female Crossfitters event.
And impressive is spot on, nuff said! :blink: :woohoo: B)

ParticipantAnother fine case of how Brie Larson doesn’t represent the United States Airforce women
generation of kids are going to idolize a goddamn stick figure instead of this woman who has actually served
