29 分钟Constantly varied, functional movements executed at high intensity. That’s the definition of CrossFit. What started 20 years ago as a challenge to traditional workout routines, has become an institution in fitness revolutionizing the way we think about performance and what the human body is capable of. CrossFit CEO Don Faul is a year into the job and joins Fran Racioppi and Jessie Graff live from the US Army Fitness Truck at NOBULL CrossFit Games 2023 to explain why doing hard things is the staple of CrossFit and critical to achieving our goals; and why the Level 1 Trainer Certificate Course sets the foundation for a long and healthy CrossFit journey. Don also shares his vision to expand CrossFit’s reach, empower affiliate owners, and appeal the brand to not only the elite athletes but everyone who seeks to be all they can be, regardless of age, fitness level or ability. Central to this expansion is bringing the CrossFit Games back to ESPN and leaving Madison, WI for Fort Worth, TX.
