Cheryl Burnett

Coach Cheryl became hooked on CrossFit in 2013 after beginning to do wods at home using the CF main site workouts.  After moving to a CrossFit gym she fell in love with the sport of it, the variety, and the competitive aspect. The desire to be better was sparked.  When she came to DRS in 2018 she realized the power of the community and how quality coaching helped her achieve her goals.  She loves coaching at DRS, continuing the tradition established here of motivating and helping the members reach their own goals! 

Cheryl has been living in Huntington Beach for over 20 years, raising her family of 3 children with her husband.  Cheryl loves the arts and creative endeavors and is an accomplished jeweler.  She is a silversmith, blending metal and stone to make unique designs, as well as having a prolific bracelet stamping business.  She also loves cooking and creating new recipes- this passion is what she brings to making Salvation, the muscle pain and skin healing salve.  

Growing up in the San Fernando Valley, Cheryl didn’t have much sport or athletics in her life.  She focused more on theater and socializing.  After having her second son she decided to make a change and found success in 2007 with Weight Watchers, losing 75 lbs by attending meetings and really changing her relationship with food.  For the next nine years she worked as a Weight Watchers Leader helping others reach their own health and lifestyle goals by facilitating dynamic group discussions on nutrition, overcoming emotional eating, and staying active.  In 2018 she shifted to working with Coach Rosario on her nutrition and attributes that to helping her maintain her wait loss and make big gains :)  

Her favorite quote is “seek the small improvement, one day at a time” by John Wooden and often can be seen wearing a bracelet with that stamped on it!
