Karan played multiple sports growing up: He used individual sports like running and
swimming as an outlet to work through his thoughts. This transitioned to bodybuilding and powerlifting training in his final year of university, in pursuit of physique and strength goals.

He joined COASTAL as a member in June 2020, and instantly fell in love with CrossFit, the community, and the gym. Although he still trains for performance metrics, like strength numbers and aerobic capacity, he believes his higher purpose is to conquer his mind through training, and pushing his mental and physical limits to achieve the best version of himself. He hopes to motivate and inspire others to do the same along his journey, leading by example with his lifestyle. He recently left the corporate world in investment banking to pursue his passion, and joined the team as an apprentice coach, to make a real positive impact in people’s lives.
