"And that mental break is really important, too. … You have to sprinkle in some fun. You have to sprinkle in some things that make you feel good, otherwise you're going to hate your life. You're going to hate exercise and that's going to fuel the dislike of health and fitness which is not the goal of CrossFit at all. It's the opposite goal.” Three-time CrossFit Games athlete Shelby Neal joins the “More Than Fitness” podcast with Adrian Conway to recount her experience at her individual Games debut and share her perspective on avoiding burnout in CrossFit. A former gymnast, Neal started CrossFit when she was 14 and was hooked. She qualified for the CrossFit Games in the Girls 16-17 division twice (2016-2017) and made her individual Games appearance in Madison, Wisconsin, in 2023, after placing ninth at the North America East Semifinal. In today's episode, Neal describes her mindset and training ahead of last year's Semifinals, and explains how refining movement technique and preventing game-day anxiety through practice helped her achieve her goal of qualifying for the Games. She reflects on her experience at the finals, where she finished as the 19th fittest woman in the world as an individual rookie, and details how she's been able to avoid burnout in CrossFit, despite starting at a young age. Tune in to learn how Neal balances her full-time career as an orthopedic engineer and CrossFit athlete, why taking breaks and managing expectations is essential for growth, and how she came to work with Games perennial Brent Fikowski. Stay until the end to hear Neal's most memorable Open workout and why fitness should be fun.

In this week's episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I get to speak with the incredible Brent Fikowski. At the most recent CrossFit Games, Brent finished in 4th spot.  That was his 8th appearance at the Games, and he's podiumed in 2 of those.  He is a truly elite level athlete who has performed at the highest level for numerous years. Brent was GREAT to speak with – he's a very intelligent, thoughtful and interesting guy. In this chat we cover his mindset, his background, the traits he sees in the top performers in sport, his work in running the Professional Fitness Athletes Association (PFAA) and lots more. He's not (yet!) done a HYROX but his potential, should he ever decide to, is absolutely massive, and there is so much I think that we can learn, in the HYROX community, from someone like this. I really hope you enjoy this chat with one of the greatest ever CrossFit athletes!⁠⁠

Today we welcome back on the show, Brent Fikowski. Brent is fresh off of his most recent appearance at the CrossFit Games, where he improved his previous years performance at the Games by 12 spots, finishing 4th this year. We talk about what changes Brent implemented over the past year in his training to result in such a large improvement at the Games, as well as his feelings around the programming and how that potentially influenced the overall outcome. Additionally, we chatted at some length about the PFAA and where they are placing their focus moving forward to help facilitate a more fair and safer competitive landscape for athletes in the space. Brent's IG: @fikowski https://www.professionalfitnessathletesassociation.org/ ••••• EPISODE SPONSORED BY: RXSG: https://www.rxsmartgear.com/ Whether you are just starting out in your fitness journey or you are an avid workout enthusiast, a jump rope is one of the most essential pieces of equipment you should have in your workout arsenal and I cannot recommend RX Smart Gear jump ropes highly enough. Not only are they dedicated to constantly improving and challenging the community with their variety of ropes, but they are dedicated to the education when it comes to their ropes and promote proper movement and technique patterns which we love at Power Monkey Fitness.

Brent Fikowski joins Sean and Tommy to talk about his 4th place finish at the 2023 NOBULL CrossFit Games, the changes in his training that led to his success, the meticulous notes he keeps during the season and the latest developments with the PFAA.

These are short thoughts that Scott Has about the sport of CrossFit and/or things going on in life.CrossFit publishes a rule book yearly under that darkness of night.  How about a permanent rule book with a rules committee that reviews the rule book yearly and proposes changes? or better yet let's add movement standards to the book.  This could change everything?

The Crew gets together to discuss the upcoming offseason and what it could look like?  We talk belching on mute (Hopefully) Smelling bad after a hike.  Change Plate Tricks, Kari Pearce and Mitch McClune got married, Spencer Panchik Got married and what if someone threw a lot of money behind an alternate CrossFit League/Championship? Plus as always, you the viewers have a say in which direction the show goes, see you all there.

Sean, Tommy, Lauren and 2008 CrossFit Games Champion Jason Khalipa discuss who they think the biggest winners are coming out of the 2023 NOBULL CrossFit Games. The four also talk about whether or not CrossFit needs a minimum work requirement rule and the theory floating around that Brent Fikowski didn't go all out on the final test to let Roman Khrennikov finish on the podium. Plus, the results from the CrossFit Games giveways!

This week Bryce talks to 8x Games veteran, Brent Fikowski! Brent is a leader within the professional fitness community and a 2-time podium athlete at the CrossFit Games.“Two big things we're working on, SAFETY AND FAIRNESS.  Safe for the athletes competing and the people on the field, and the judges as well. FAIR, does each athlete, each hit and each subsequent lane, do they all have the same opportunity?
