History
Established in 2013.
Bonnie Kizis and Ian Ackerman are the proud owners and head trainers at Endorphin CrossFit in Middlesex, NJ.
Ian and Bonnie met at a CrossFit gym in January of 2011 and immediately became great friends. We spent hours discussing, debating, and sharing experiences, knowledge, and theories on health and fitness.
Collectively, we have visited over 50 CrossFit and countless traditional gyms all across the US. Through our experience we have gained extensive insight into the good, the bad, and the downright ugly. These experiences have influenced our own training methods and have driven our desire to share them through operating our own CrossFit box.
Meet the Business Owner: Bonnie K.
My CrossFit journey started in April of 2010 in the backyard of my grandparents house in Virignia. My brother, a newly minted CrossFit trainer ran me through a short 4 minute workout that left me on the ground panting for 20 minutes. I had grown up on a farm, played sports, practiced karate, and was an avid cardio kickboxer, but NOTHING compared to CrossFit.
After starting at a local box, I quickly fell in love with the sport. I moved several times before finding my soul mate and business partner, Ian, at a local CrossFit gym. Soon after we decided to open the box of our dreams, Endorphin CrossFit in Middlesex NJ.
