• How to incorporate more swimming into your training without spending more time training.
• The smallest thing a CrossFit athlete could do to give the greatest benefit.
• What KP would like to see programmed as an event in The CrossFit Games.
• What KP will be covering at the Range of Motion Athlete Camp.
