Noah Ohlsen wore no hair products for this episode. He has made three trips to the Reebok CrossFit Games and is relentless in his pursuit. We talk about all sorts of things in this episode. You can get to know him a little bit better as a human and see how much you might have in common. And don’t worry, we talk plenty of Games prep and training stuff too.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Games prep, strategy in training, and mental aspect of performance
• Noah’s favorite movies, music, tv shows, and more
• 4 workouts you can try out that are nasty in just the right ways
