DAVIDE SPONGA

"Effort is never wasted: you suffer but you dream."

Davide was born on 9 September 1990 in Segrate, Lombardy. His sporting odyssey began at the age of five with track and field, which laid the foundations of his early physical education. By nine, he had turned to swimming, competing in numerous provincial and regional meets until the end of middle school. Returning to athletics as a sprinter, he specialised in the 100 m, 200 m and 400 m events, reaching several Italian finals both individually and as part of relay teams. In 2007, Davide discovered Muay Thai, first competing as an amateur and later as a semi-professional, during which he claimed multiple national titles. It was in this period that he encountered CrossFit—not merely as supplementary conditioning but as an all-consuming passion that led him to leave the ring and pursue a competitive CrossFit career on both national and international stages. Davide remains an active CrossFit athlete and has successfully turned his lifelong devotion to sport into his profession.
