Anthony Silva

Anthony has always had a passion for sports, trying his hand at anything he could, with football and hockey emerging as his favorites. Naturally, weightlifting became a key part of his training for both sports, sparking his journey into fitness. After college, Anthony joined the Army, where he gained more experience with fitness, primarily through group workouts that focused on pushing everyone to improve together.

For years, Anthony had wanted to try CrossFit but never found the right opportunity. That changed during the COVID pandemic, when he finally gave it a shot—and he's been hooked ever since! Although Anthony is new to coaching, having started in July 2024, he is eager to learn and help others on their fitness paths.

Anthony lived in New York City and Washington, D.C. for six years before returning to Richmond, where he and his wife met while attending VCU. Outside of CrossFit, he enjoys staying active by golfing with friends, walking his dogs, or exploring new restaurants with his wife.
