This week, Michael and Paige are talking with the walking legend, Heather Williams about all things CrossFit Open. What it is, what it's not, why we participate in it, and what to expect during this year's Open. 

Michael and Paige sit down with Dr. Dave Dahlbeck and Tiffany Bowman, both of whom are mental health specialists. This conversation covers the benefits and obstacles that exercise elicits in the mind. We hit on topics such as pre-gym anxiety, the physiological processes that occur during and after exercise, how to keep exercise addiction in check, and some of our anecdotal experiences with exercise as it pertains to mindset. If it seems bland on the forefront, we guarantee you'll enjoy this one, so listen in!
