Eric Amzalag

Eric is a health and wellness advocate. Having played high school athletics at a competitive level, he had a basic understanding of how training, diet, and psychology all come together to produce optimal results. After college he began Crossfitting recreationally, eventually turning it into a passion. In October 2012 he competed in his first Crossfit Competition - NLI Warrior Soul and Placed tenth in the competition. This experience really hammered home how discipline can elevate performance to a new level. Since then he has picked up a passion for Olympic lifting. Eric looks forward to helping out with any members interested in increasing their athletic performance. As the owner and head coach at CrossFit Encino, Eric looks forward to creating an environment where athletes will push themselves to try new methodologies and achieve new levels of fitness.
