Just a quick note before we get into this episode - the audio quality on my end was slightly jumpy however it gets better as the conversation develops so please stick with it! I have joined a different streaming platform so this audio issue will be rectified from here on out!
Hello and welcome back to Run Fast, Lift Heavy!
Today I was joined by Crossfit Games athlete and seminar staff, James Hobart.
In the CrossFit space, James really has done it all! He has competed as an individual, on a team with CrossFit Mayhem and as a master. Not only this but he is also on the seminar team so knows a thing or two about training, nutrition and health!
In this conversation we discussed:
- exactly what it takes to be a CF Games athlete, including training volume, nutrition and environment
- what it was like to train with Rich Froning at his barn
- the development of competitive CrossFit and how performances have dramatically improved
- James’s prediction for the 2022 Games (Mayhem versus Reykjavik) and what he thinks of “super teams”
- why the community of CrossFit is what makes the methodology special
