I’ve been in the Fitness space since 2007. I became familiar with the GRID League when it was first introduced. Outside of fitness, my time is spent raising my son and maintaining professionalism as a public servant.
Octavius Baker has been in the fitness space since 2007. For nearly two decades, he watched functional fitness evolve from CrossFit’s early days into something bigger. When the Grid League arrived, he recognized it immediately as the next evolution of how athletes compete.
Now, at 6’0″ and 235 pounds, Baker brings a strength specialist’s power to Carolina Flight’s roster. His experience as a public servant, maintaining professionalism and discipline across two demanding careers, indicates the work ethic required to compete at this level. At a position designed for athletes who dominate loaded movements and explosive strength work, Baker arrives with 19 years of fitness industry knowledge and a long view of where functional fitness is headed.
Carolina Flight is adding a veteran who speaks the language of competitive fitness.
