Siddhartha Kantipudi

A little bit about Sidd:

He's been a CS&F member since September of 2024. He moved to Atlanta in 2023 after spending 9 years in Philly. He is living a low-key life with his amazing wife Sravanthi. He is a total sports fanatic - a Chiefs / Chelsea fan and plays cricket, tennis, pickleball while being a self-proclaimed "average hiker."

He started lifting back in 2016 when he realized that he needed to make fitness a lifestyle. He did the "routine gym thing" for years before coming to CS&F, but CS&F is his first CrossFit box - and he is forever grateful.

Favorite Workout:  Muscle Ups - because he still can't do one (yet) - and it keeps him motivated.

Least Favorite Workout: Deadlifts

Favorite Music to Workout To: Anything LOUD that keeps the energy up... or Hans Zimmer (because sometimes you need to feel like Batman mid-WOD).

Favorite Cheat Meal: Pistachio Ice Cream

Goals when Joining CS&F: Consistency! He wanted to show up 4-5 days a week. And he HAS!

Special CS&F Memory: Being a part of his first Summer Classic in 2025. It was an awesome experience. Also - a BIG shoutout to the Coaches for always being so welcoming, and the 5:30 p.m. crew for pushing me harder every day. Couldn't do it without you all.

Advice to a New CS&F Member: One day at a time. Don't overthink - focus on small clues like breathing, and the rest will follow.
