Should You Even Do Local Competitions?


Listen Later

Are local CrossFit comps building your athletes and community, or breaking your programming?

In this episode, Danny Lehr, Blair Morrison, and Seth Page debate whether local throwdowns are actually good for your members or just glorified chaos. From overtraining and “competition programming” to judging horror stories and why most gyms do it wrong — this one’s for every coach who’s ever taped a floor lane at 5 a.m.

Featuring:

  • Danny Lehr — Caffeine & Kilos

  • Blair Morrison — CrossFit OG, tie-dye–wearing affiliate owner, and the only 3x Games athlete to play wide receiver at Princeton University

  • Seth Page — Jump Ship Training founder, programming purist, and the internet’s favorite CrossFit contrarian

Topics include:

    • Are local comps good for gyms or bad for business?
    • Should you particpate as an athlete?
    • When (and why) people start training like Games athletes for parking-lot events

    • The truth about “competition programming”

    • How to coach members through comp season without losing your mind
