Our Story
Hi! I'm Jenny, founder of pullups & pizza! I'm a 51 year old Italian mother of two who has two passions in life...working out and food! What Italian woman doesn't love a good pizza every once in a while? Well, this one does!
All of my life I have been involved in some sort of sport. As a young girl, I played recreational soccer and as an adult, I played with a competitive soccer team. As the years went by, I knew I wanted more with my fitness journey. I found myself going from gym to gym and even took a chance on hiring personal trainers. But nothing felt right...until the fall of 2011. It was then that I was introduced to the world of CrossFit. This is where I really found my passion for fitness. This felt like home to me and I've never looked back! Over the last 13 years, I have never felt better about myself and love the way I look! Believe me, I have my ups and downs, and I'm talking about the scale. This Italian mama is giving up her pizza! But, still, my fitness never takes a back seat.
One thing that I love about this sport is that not only are you getting fit and taking care of your personal health, but it's also fun! Fitness should be fun! If it wasn't, why would you want to go back? So this is how I came up with the idea for pullups & pizza. I wanted to start a company that promotes fitness, personal health, not being afraid to indulge every once in a while, and of course having fun with it all! I feel that fitness and having fun should go hand in hand! If you look good and you feel good, then life is full of happiness! And that's what I'm all about, doing what makes you happy!
So do a few push-ups, run a little bit, then grab a slice of pizza and join me on my journey! Life is all about balance and we should all enjoy it!
