Coach Candice lost 50 pounds this year... but that's not the coolest part.

The coolest part is what happened along the way.

In this episode, Candice shares how years of simply showing up turned into a breakthrough season of consistency. We talk about why she stopped chasing the scale, how focusing on small wins changed everything, and why her greatest accomplishments weren't the pounds she lost—they were the first pull-up, her first unassisted Murph, stronger lifts, and becoming someone she never thought she could be.

If you've ever struggled with motivation, started over more times than you can count, or wondered if you're capable of lasting change, this conversation is for you. It's an honest reminder that real transformation doesn't happen overnight—it happens one workout, one meal, and one small win at a time.

In this episode, Coach Mike, Coach Candice, and Coach Meg discuss their recent fitness endeavors, emphasizing the importance of consistency and community in CrossFit. They delve into the CrossFit Open, sharing personal experiences and the camaraderie it fosters. The conversation highlights the significance of programming, heavy lifting, and conditioning days in preparing for the Open, while also addressing common fears associated with competition. They conclude with upcoming events and a reminder to prioritize health and nutrition.
