ZOLTAN HITES

As a former professional tennis player, Zoltan spent most of his childhood on a tennis court. But as a kid, he also played football, basketball, and soccer. At 12 years old, Zoltan decided tennis was the sport for him and never looked back. He had an impressive junior career which led him to play seven years on the ATP Tour, traveling all over the world playing on some of the biggest stages in tennis. During his years playing professional tennis, he was trained in the areas of physical fitness, sports psychology, and weightlifting by the best in the world. After his professional tennis career, Zoltan taught tennis for 14 years. He coached high-level national and world-ranked players as well as young kids and senior clients. He’s also managed two different Country Clubs and Director of Tennis at various clubs throughout the Bay Area. In these roles, he gained the experience of running large facilities with huge member bases and the knowledge of how to manage successful fitness facilities, making sure that members’ needs are met. 14 years ago, Zoltan discovered CrossFit and functional fitness and could not get enough. He totally believes that CrossFit is the best way for anyone to reach their physical potential and the most efficient way to reach any fitness goal. In fact, he wishes he had been doing CrossFit when he was playing professional tennis; it would have given him an edge over the competition for sure. Eventually, Zoltan turned his love of CrossFit into a second career and began coaching CrossFit. When the opportunity to own and manage a CrossFit facility presented itself to him, he jumped at the chance with zero hesitation. In his mind, it is just like running a Country Club, with the only difference being that the community is tighter and more like-minded, and the service we provide can really improve people’s daily lives. Zoltan loves CFP and the loyal membership. He truly wants to give the gift of fitness.
