Milos “Scale So Hard” Mikic
Certifications & Specialties
Owner of CrossFit Blackbuck
CrossFit Level 2 Certified
USA Weightlifting-Level 1
Milos Mikic is from Indianapolis, Indiana and moved to Memphis in December of 2015. He graduated from the University of Memphis in 2018 where he majored in Health and Human Performance. Milos ran track at Indiana University before enlisting in the Marine Corps in November of 2008. He first heard of CrossFit while on deployment in Iraq but didn’t dive into it until 2013 and has been at it ever since. His dream has been to own and operate an affiliate of his own for years and is now living his dream. Aside from preaching how smedium is the best shirt size, he likes to remind athletes that at the end of the day, it's just fitness. We're all here to have a good time and get fit in the process. And be prepared to survive a zombie apocalypse (obviously).
Major “Gym dog”VonBlackbuck
Certifications & Specialties
Certified Good Boy
Major is the designated gym dog, his owners are training him to be the best, but just like his dad he’s good at scaling (even if it’s simple doggy commands). He loves a good solid petting, chewing on PVC pipes, playing fetch, and he’s still working on not jumping when he’s excited. Major can’t wait to meet you, even if he sees you daily!
Sarah Webb
Certifications & Specialties
CF-L1, DPT
Sarah is the adult in the room, first and foremost. This is of great benefit to all around her since she’s surrounded by adult children most of the time! Makes herding the cats at 5 pm much smoother.
She works as a Physical Therapist by day and crushes at the gym and then coaching at night.
In between, where all the magic is, you’ll catch her walking Major, cackling with infectious laughter, mixing it up with the regular cast, and transforming into a koala bear as the night ticks away.
Brennan “Brenda” Jones
Certifications & Specialties
CrossFit Level 1 Certified
Brennan is an ICU nurse by night, but works on his fitness and growing out his long locks of love during the daylight hours. He was one of the founding members of the “Buck Bois” (don’t ask what that is, it’s basically a club of guys that texts memes to each other). He’ll answer to “Brenda” or “Major’s Uncle.” His love for dogs translates to his love for people and ability to coach them through workouts. Some of Brennan’s other hobbies include growing his rock garden, drinking White Claws, and fishing for sharks in the Mississippi River (he still hasn’t caught one yet).
Aaron “AP” Persinger
Certifications & Specialties
CrossFit Level 1 Certified
NSCA
CSCS
We know him by AP, but his real name is Aaron...”yes, A-A-Ron.” He’ll crush your soul in any running workout since he’s a former track star at University of Memphis. Given his track background as an athlete and coach he’ll help you get through any CrossFit workout with ease! Not only is he strong in the gym, he’s got brains too; he has a Masters in Health and Human Performance with a concentration in exercise sport and movement science. His favorite CrossFit movement is toes-to-bar, he also magically got a muscle up on accident one day (he’s basically our version of a CrossFit unicorn.) AP’s other hobbies include working on his 8-pack and building Ninja Warrior courses for his cat.
