This week, we went over to CrossFit Invictus in downtown San Diego to meet up with some of the very best athletes in the world. This week's six-for-one special includes insights from four Games competitors and two Invictus coaches about what it takes to go from great to the greatest.
In our first segment, we talk to training partners Garret Fisher and Holden Rethwill about how their workout styles compliment each other, how they train for such an unpredictable athletic event, and how to know when it's truly time to give their bodies a rest.
Next up, we talk to weightlifters and Games competitors Maddy Myers and Lauren Fisher about the challenges they face as dual-discipline athletes, how they'll decide when it's time to specialize, and what it's like to enter this field as new athletes––only to discover you're the best in the world.
We round the conversation out with the coaches who got them this far, CJ Martin and Tino Marini. CJ's trained over 40 individual athletes to Games, and Tino's coached alongside him since 2012. We talk to them about these four athletes, and what makes them stand apart from even the most elite in the field.
Enjoy the show!
Mike
