Holly Priestland is a British girl who came China to be a Cross-fit coach. Cross-fit, which includes cardio, high-intensity training and basic gymnastic movements, is becoming more popular in China.

Even though she has to get up at 6 am for class, Holy says getting people to realize they can do anything gives her more joy than any other job has before.

Holly helps girls realize that they can do pull-ups as well, not just the guys.

This is Holly Priestland's story.
