As with every other Crossfit Games Open announcement, there is a large amount of anxiety that builds up beforehand, anticipating which movements will be thrown into the mix, what sort of rep scheme, and the amount of time that the athletes would need to endure the result of the seemingly random hopper.

I’ve mentioned time and time again that I am an emotional person, and when it comes to Crossfit and lifting, there is no exception. I have been focusing on trusting the programming at my box and looking at each workout individually rather than putting an emphasis on how heavy I am lifting today compared to […]

Now that I have competed a few times, I think I have a pretty good handle on what you should pack for a Crossfit competition. I had a chance to re-test my packing skills this past weekend when I competed in my first partner competition, which happened to be the boost that I needed while recovering […]
