GUEST:Andrea Solberg, 28 years old from Bergen, Norway. Live in Oslo and Bergen 50/50 of each year to do medical school in the autumn in Bergen (last year), and Oslo spring time to be a full time athlete. Did gymnastics for 11 years while growing up, and startet CF in 2015 to have an effective way to stay fit while doing medical school. Ended up with competing just 2months after starting, and qualified for regionals individually 1 year later (2016). Since then been at the top of the Norwegians for many years, lead by our role model Kristin Holte from Kriger training, and now under their camp. During my career I have competed at multiple regionals/semifinals/santcionals (including medals), CF games individually (2020), silver at the Dubai FC, Rogue invitational, and medals at different international big competitions. I’m also 3 times Norwegian champion in Functional Fitness (2 indy, 1 team), and a world champion in team Functional Fitness.
