Bruce Marchand
CrossFit® Level 1 Trainer
Bruce beat the odds after being diagnosed with a debilitating genetic condition called Hips Perthes at age 4. Despite the resulting hip pain, limited mobility and uneven gait, he excelled in baseball. Two months after being recruited to a Division 1 baseball team, Bruce herniated two lumbar disks during training with the team’s unqualified strength coach. He underwent major back surgery three months later at age 21, and his Division 1 career was over. Bruce recovered, but his health and fitness declined for the next five years. In 2018, Bruce joined Trust Athletics. He regained his health and went on to receive his Level 1 CrossFit certificate – becoming a coach not just to educate, but to inspire others to overcome any obstacles.
