Alec Smith is a 3-time CrossFit Games competitor who is perhaps best known for his incredible expertise at gymnastics, and for being one of the first openly gay male athletes in the sport. He started in gymnastics at age 2, and excelled at the sport through middle school when a car accident forced him to retire. After recovering and dabbling in several other sports, he eventually began training CrossFit alongside his older brother, Ben Smith. In 2013 Alec qualified for his first Regionals, and by 2017 he was competing at the Games as an individual. In 2019 Alec joined Team CrossFit Krypton and went on to win first at Wodapalooza and second at the CrossFit Games. Currently Alec is gearing up for the 2021 season by training alongside Brooke Wells in Nashville, TN.

Six-time CrossFit Games athlete Brooke Wells was just 19 when she qualified for her first CrossFit Games in 2015, and she's competed at every CrossFit Games since, always placing inside the top 20. This year, at the 2020 CrossFit Games, Brooke earned her best finish yet, placing 5th amongst an elite field of competitors. When Brooke started CrossFit, she had a natural gift for strength and lifting heavy weights. Combine that with a background in track and gymnastics, plus several years of hard work to improve on her weaknesses, and Brooke has become an incredibly well-rounded athlete who is a consistent podium threat. In Stage 1 of the 2020 CrossFit Games, she finished in the top 10 on every event, proving there are very few holes in her game. Looking ahead to the 2021 season, she's excited to start improving upon her strength numbers again and to inch her way up the leaderboard even further. She's also excited to be surrounding herself with a training community to help her achieve that goal. Brooke recently relocated from Tulsa to Nashville and has teamed up with several other high level athletes including Will Morad, Alec Smith and Streat Horner to form an environment where she can be challenged to give her best with each session. In Brooke's second appearance on the podcast, we caught up just a week after Stage 2 of the 2020 CrossFit Games to talk about her experience at the 2020 Games, her plans for the 2021 season, and the legacy she hopes to leave on CrossFit. In this episode we discuss: Areas where Brooke feels she has grown the most over the past 6 years Her 2020 training season How Brooke decided to move to Nashville Brooke's approach to preparing for Stage 1 and Stage 2 of the 2020 CrossFit Games Her typical daily routine Brooke's experience at Stage 2 of the CrossFit Games Her impressions on the changes in leadership within CrossFit HQ How Brooke is preparing for the 2021 training season How she plans to spend her downtime during the off-season The legacy Brooke hopes to leave on CrossFit Three things Brooke does on a regular basis that have the biggest positive impact on her health One thing she thinks could have a big impact on her health, but she has a hard time implementing What a healthy life looks like to Brooke You can follow Brooke on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
