Sara Armanius – The Fittest Woman in Sweden

Hey Sara Armanius, and congratulations on winning the Open in Sweden. You are now officially ‘The Fittest in Sweden’

-Tell us briefly about who you are?

My name is Sara Armanius. I am former dancer, I work as a personal trainer and compete in Crossfit. I love food, hugs and my family and friends… and training of course.

Sara Armanius has earned the right to be called the 'fittest woman in Sweden' — Sara Armanius has earned the right to be called the ‘fittest woman in Sweden’

-What merits have you achieved so far in CF?

11th Place in Europe 2016 Crossfit Open
6th Place in The Athlete Games 2016

-What did you do before CF?

I danced for 11 years (hip hop, jazz, balett, contemporary dance)

-How are you preparing yourself for the Regionals?

I train twice a day in the right gear, following a program from Crossfit Uppsala. I eat and sleep well and do stuff that makes me happy when I´m not training.

-What motivates you to go on when everything gets tough in the middle of a WOD?

I always think that ‘This will make me stronger and better’ and if it’s a WOD in a competition, I´m just thinking that I want to win!
