Join us for an unscripted and casual hangout as we kick off our podcast before a big competition weekend. We dive into CrossFit workout strategies, talk about our favorite gym equipment, and discuss the upcoming North America vs. World event at WZA SoCal. Expect lots of banter, some fantasy football drama, and our shared excitement for the Clean C2 Bike and other workouts. Plus, get a sneak peek into our post-comp plans and the Reign Games.
