Jon Friederich

CF-L1

My name is Jon Friederich. I am a police officer and experienced instructor, committed to personal fitness, community service, and, most importantly, my family. I am married to my wife, Mia, and together we are the parents of two daughters, Lena and Annie. Even with our busy schedules, we find time for family trips, board games, and simply relaxing with a good movie together.

My CrossFit journey began in 2019 when I knew I needed to elevate my fitness and overall lifestyle. I still remember my first workout in my first class—appropriately called “Champion”—which completely crushed me. Failing to complete it within the 30-minute time cap was the moment I realized CrossFit was exactly what I needed. That decision has since proven to be the best one I’ve made for my health and fitness.

With a long-standing passion for coaching youth athletics, I now instruct various courses for civilians and law enforcement personnel, blending my professional expertise with my commitment to helping others. In October 2024, I achieved a major personal milestone by obtaining my CrossFit Level 1 Trainer (CF-L1) certification, fulfilling a goal I’ve held for years.
