Sara Sigmundsdottir before and after

Sara Sigmundsdottir is born in Reykjanesbær, Iceland on 12 September 1992. Daughter of Hafrun Jonsdottir (mother) and Sammy (father).

According to an interview with Fitness Volt, Sara was a weighlifting athlete until she discovered the world of CrossFit®.

Like many Crossfitters, she spent her childhood and adolescence practicing gymnastics. She didn't have a single passion, however: gymnastics, swimming and dancing were her favorite pastimes and interests during her growth.

When she started lifting weights, she realized she was good, but most of all, she liked the thrill and the challenge.

CrossFit® in those days, however, was a relatively little known sport, certainly not to be pursued as a career. She needed a boost and it seemed that fate had given her just that.

Sara Sigmundsdottir: professional career

As mentioned earlier, Sara initially decided to devote his attention to weightlifting full time after graduating from high school.

In the meantime, he started saving money by working at the local gym reception. However, being a CrossFit® athlete required major expenses such as diet and nutritional supplements.

Eventually, he met Hallgrimur Ingvarsson, owner of a CrossFit® affiliate box. He assisted her in training and introduced her to her coach, Jami Tikkanen. 

After that, Sara has adopted the Keto diet and started a training program together with Tikkanen. He was her first coach and he helped her with everything. He was already taking part in local tournaments at the beginning of the 2010 decade.

Plus, there was a slew of regional CrossFit® competitions on the horizon. With Sara's great passion for challenges, she began to consider pursuing an effective career in CrossFit®.

And thank goodness ... look at his results in the Open over the years:
