Built To Perform: The Search for the Next Yellow Army Athlete

Built To Perform: New NPL Athlete Found 

The Yellow Army doesn’t mess around when shooting their shot! We saw a huge amount of heart and dedication while looking for our new Built To Perform athlete. Exactly 211 entry videos were submitted, and we're so impressed by everyone who put themselves out there. 

Meet Christopher Lipawsky 

31-year-old  Christopher Lipawsky caught our eye, not just for his dedication to fitness, but for the way he's centred his entire life around it. He's competed twice as a Protea Speed Fit athlete for South Africa, and now balances life as a business owner, personal trainer, and dad of two. Through it all, Chris has kept his health and fitness a priority, no matter what his schedule throws at him. 

“Training is a big part of me and my daily routine. Our household is revolved around training.”  

He's now actively competing in nearby events such as NPL-sponsored events like The Jackal Night Run in Roodepoort and pushing to qualify for Hyrox World like Hyrox World Championships along with his wife.  Our team has spotted him at a number of local events, and we love seeing our Yellow Army get involved and engage with the Jozi fitness community. 

As the NPL community grows, we want to make sure the most dedicated individuals have a seat at our table. Choosing felt like an impossible task, but Chris stood out as someone who is truly Built To Perform. 

Show him some love! Head over to our official announcement post, comment and welcome Chris to the team.
