I am a retired firefighter/paramedic who has spent most of the last 40 years doing endurance sports including triathlons, road racing, and adventure racing. I started Crossfit in April of 2021 at the young age of 62, as a way to regain my strength and muscle mass, and to increase my mobility. During that time the sport, and the CrossFit community have had a major impact in my life. The sport has not only greatly improved my total fitness, but it’s given me an outlet for my competitive side, including a third place finish at the DekaStrong World Championships in 2022, and a trip to the CrossFit Semifinals in 2024. I love being a part of CrossFit, and coaching has allowed me to give back to the community that has given me so much.

Since a young age, I have always had a passion for helping others. I chased career paths in an attempt to fulfill this passion, that ultimately led to dead ends. It’s true what they say; sometimes what you’re looking for when you’re not looking at all.
I have an athletic history of volleyball, softball, and running, none of which ever came easily to me, determination and resilience was always my strong suit. In 2019, I found CrossFit and never looked back. I soon realized what I loved most about it was watching my community meet and exceed their own personal goals; nothing makes me happier.
In 2022 I decided to start coaching because I wanted to help my community reach those goals and be part of their fitness journey. Being a CrossFit coach allows my passion for helping others and for fitness to come full circle.

Keith Barber’s journey into the world of fitness and athleticism began at a very young age. Growing up, he was immersed in an environment that celebrated physical activity and health, thanks to his mother’s vibrant aerobics classes.

Keith’s dedication to athletics started on the track field. From elementary school through college, he was a committed and competitive track runner. His experience spans a wide range of disciplines and age groups, making him well-versed in the demands and rewards of rigorous training. His years on the track taught him invaluable lessons in discipline, perseverance, and the thrill of personal achievement.
In 2013, Keith discovered CrossFit, a fitness regimen that perfectly aligned with his passion for varied, high-intensity workouts. Since then, he has dedicated himself to mastering and teaching the principles of CrossFit. Keith’s fascination with human performance drives him to continually expand his knowledge and improve his coaching techniques.
As a CrossFit coach, Keith’s mission is to share his deep understanding and enthusiasm for fitness with every individual who walks into a CrossFit Affiliate.

I have always been part of some type of sport since junior high and high school. Basketball, Volleyball, Track. Dance etc. I attended college on a dance scholarship, dancing for the Basketball team half-time shows, then moving on to Professional Ballroom Dance after. I traveled the US competing for 6 + years.
Then, at 30, I became a mother. Actually, a 225 lb mom! I made the decision I would look 21 & thin again no matter the pain and sweat involved. I took up running and with Clint began Triathlons. The next few years were full of Triathlons, Marathons obstacle races and Ultramarathons. Including a 50k trail race. I lost my weight, ALL OF IT. And was thin but wanted more tone. I was now a “Skinny Fat” so to speak, lol. Clint gave me a weightlifting routine & proved to me a woman can lift weights and get LEAN and tone. NOT big & bulky.
In my careers as a Firefighter and a pro Women’s Football player, I strived to stay in top physical condition. In 2011, we found Crossfit. It is the perfect balance of full-body strength, core strength, endurance, and explosive intensity that I needed for both of my careers.
When Clint and I launched Sweat Factory CrossFit in 2013, we were driven by the conviction that fitness should be available to all. No matter your age, background in fitness, goals or physical abilities. We aim to foster a supportive atmosphere that enhances mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. At Sweat Factory CrossFit, we are committed to enhancing the health and wellness of our community members. And we are a family within our community. The unbelievable joy we get from supporting our community is unmatched, and we are devoted to helping everyone who enters our facility reach their highest potential.

After my college football career ended, I found myself settling into a sedentary lifestyle, becoming a “couch potato” for the next ten years. That all changed when I discovered the Body for Life challenge, through which I lost 35 pounds not once, but twice! Feel free to ask me about my journey—I’d love to share it with you.
This transformation sparked a newfound passion for fitness, leading me to train for and compete in triathlons. Over the years, I’ve participated in over 100 triathlons, including four half Ironman races and three full Ironman races. Additionally, I’ve completed 15 marathons, six 50k marathons, and four 50-mile ultramarathons.
My CrossFit journey began in 2011, and since then, I’ve competed in over ten CrossFit competitions, a bodybuilding competition, and a powerlifting competition. The diversity of these experiences has fueled my dedication to helping others achieve their fitness goals.
In 2013, Maci and I founded Sweat Factory CrossFit with the belief that fitness should be accessible to everyone. Our mission is to create a positive environment that uplifts the mind, body, and spirit. At Sweat Factory CrossFit, we are dedicated to improving the physical, mental, and overall health of our community members. The joy we derive from serving our community is unparalleled, and we are committed to helping each person who walks through our doors achieve their fullest potential.
