“I'm not in this sport to gain or to get. That's not why I'm doing this. I'm doing this because I believe somewhere down the line somebody's gonna be inspired by my story and by my journey.”On this episode of “More Than Fitness,” nine-time CrossFit Games athlete Cole Sager opens up about his introduction to CrossFit, his evolution as an athlete, and the impact he hopes to leave on the community. Sager retells the story of how he was introduced to CrossFit in 2013 by his best friend Cody, who recently died from brain cancer, and how he knew he wanted to be competitive in the sport. He shares the story of finishing Grace — his first CrossFit workout — in 3:33, realizing after the workout that he used 155 lb instead of 135 lb as is prescribed. Sager also describes his path through the CrossFit space, training with former Games athlete Rory Zambard, eventually quitting his job to be a full-time athlete, and working with Ben Bergeron and CompTrain. A new father, Sager candidly talks about the premature birth of his son, Jack, and how that experience, the recent death of his friend, and other moments in his life have given him perspective and have made him grateful for his life's journey. In this episode, learn more about the inspiration Sager hopes to be for others, his first Open workout in 2013, and how he learned to do bar muscle-ups on a park swing set.

Cole Sager is a 9x CrossFit Games athlete, one of only a handful of athletes who have qualified for 9 consecutive CrossFit Games. One of CrossFit's most formidable and consistent performers, Cole Sager honed his competitive edge on the gridiron, playing four years at the University of Washington as a running back and special teams player. When his football days were finally behind him in 2013, Sager needed a new type of athletic challenge. A friend suggested he try his hand at CrossFit, and the rest was history. After qualifying for his first Regionals within months of entering the sport, Cole started moving up the ranks as he honed his craft. He won the Northwest Regional in 2014 and has qualified for every Games since, notching Top 10 finishes in 2015 (7th), 2016 (5th), and 2018 (7th). He also reached the podium (3rd overall) at the inaugural Rogue Invitational in 2019. Widely regarded for his high character and positive attitude within the CrossFit community, Cole was awarded the “Spirit of the Games” honor in 2017, showing the level of respect he commands from his fellow athletes.

“When you think of the CrossFit community, you think of people who are going to the gym to challenge themselves, to be better than they were the day before, and that is such a cool part of the community, and it's what I fell in love with.” - Cole Sager   6-time CrossFit Games athlete Cole Sager wants to be known as the kindest person you'll ever meet, and in doing so, he hopes to motivate others to be the kindest, hardest-working version of themselves. Growing up in a small town in Washington, Cole played sports throughout his youth and aspired to be an NFL player.  In 2009 he joined the Washington University Huskies as an invited walk-on, and was one of only a handful of true freshmen to play.  At the end of his freshman year, he was awarded the Scout Special Teams Player of The Year award, an honor that would change the trajectory of his life.  The honor was awarded based on hard work, and receiving it ignited Cole's drive to always be the hardest worker on the field. As Cole neared graduation, his goals shifted from playing professional football to becoming a professional CrossFit athlete. Within months of his first CrossFit workout he qualified for Regionals, and just one year after that he established himself a serious contender when he placed first at the 2014 North West Regional and 17th in his rookie appearance at the CrossFit Games. Eventually, Cole took a leap of faith, resigned from his job as a loan originator, and began training full-time in his home garage gym.  With the support of his wife, Genasee, and his coach, Ben Bergeron, he has built a reputation as one of CrossFit's most consistent athletes.  Career highlights so far include placing 5th at the 2016 CrossFit Games, 2nd at the 2019 Fittest in Cape Town sanctional, and 3rd at the 2019 Rogue Invitational, but according to Cole, one of his biggest achievements was winning the Spirit of the Games award in 2017, an honor that recognized all the hard work he puts into developing his character. I was excited to catch up with Cole to learn more about what drives the intensity behind his training, the qualities he values in himself and others, and why he believes developing character leads to athletic excellence. In this episode we discuss: How Cole is approaching the 2020 CrossFit Games How he stays focused on his goals in the face of doubt Cole's collegiate football career Letting go of NFL aspirations and falling in love with CrossFit Cole's experience of getting to his first CrossFit Games How he started working with Ben Bergeron as a coach The qualities of a good coach How Cole has developed as a person over the course of his CrossFit career How he stays driven to train even on days he doesn't feel like it The importance of accepting help from others to hold yourself accountable How Cole's wife, Genasee, is a vital part of his team A typical day for Cole and Genasee Three things Cole does on a regular basis that have the biggest positive impact on his health One thing he thinks could have a big impact on his health, but he has a hard time implementing What a healthy life looks like to Cole You can follow Cole on his website and on Instagram, YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.

The board lists Friday, Saturday, Sunday - suggesting a three-day event. In the Friday section we see “ab” and “ski erg” listed with question marks. We see a miscellaneous note next to Friday that says “CF x3” - which can be interpreted to be three events on Friday. Along the top of the board are three columns, labeled “M”, “G”, and “W” for what would probably be Metcon, Gymnastics, and Weightlifting.Either way, this story is not lost in time. I've captured it and uploaded it to WODDITY's YouTube channel for your perusal. Feel free to watch it as many times as you want and comment with what your theories are. I'd love to hear them.CrossFit HeadlinesWe have two quick stories for headlines this morning.ELFIT CrossFit Championship CancellationMany in the CrossFit Community were excited for the first CrossFit Sanctional in Egypt this year, but the ELFIT CrossFit Championship took to Instagram yesterday to announce they have decided to change the event from June to be fully postponed until the 2021 season. Matt Chan on NBC's Titan GamesLong-time CrossFit Games athlete Matt Chan...

He also received the Spirit of the Games award in 2017.He joined Sean Woodland to talk about his time playing division one college football at the University of Washington, how to beat the odds and overcome self-doubt, and why his dad decided to name him after a fictional character portrayed by Tom Cruise.Links:COVID-19 ResourcesJoin the Gym Owners United group on FacebookFree ToolsBook a Free CallContact:Instagram: @colesager35Timeline:1:24 – Training for the Games in a season upended by the coronavirus.4:49 – On being named after a Tom Cruise movie character.6:32 – The small-town mentality and growing up playing football.8:55 – From high-school star to college walk-on.16:25 – Abandoning NFL ambitions for CrossFit Games dreams.21:27 – How Cole qualified for Regionals just a few months into CrossFit.26:43 – Maturing as a CrossFit athlete.31:44 – Lessons learned from his debut CrossFit Games in 2014.35:01 – Dealing with the pressure of being a repeat Games athlete.38:39 – Winning the Spirit of the Games award in 2017 and why being a positive role model is so important.42:41 – Lessons learned from the new structure of the CrossFit Games: No room for error.45:48 – Why Cole is OK with being known for his character more than his fitness.

On today's episode, we get to know CrossFit Athlete, Entrepreneur, and former Bachelorette contestant, Luke Parker, on a whole new level. We get pretty real in this interview as we sat down at the 2019 CrossFit Games, just months after his season on the Bachelorette aired. It was pretty controversial season as Luke stood up for his faith and what it means to live it out. As you can imagine, doing so on such a public platform invited both praise and criticism.    Regardless of where people stand on how he conducted himself on the show, one thing is true, Luke P. is not where his identity starts or stops. We get into the growth that has happened since the show, and his hopes for the future. One thing we can all take away from this episode is that our past is not our future. It is something we can grow and learn from, but it does not have to define us, regardless of what anyone says or thinks. The most important opinion that matters is God's, and he can use all situations and stories for his glory.    If you want to check out what Luke has been up to since the interview, you can find him on Instagram, @luke_parker777, or at The Unbroken Mentality (@unbrokenmentality), the new podcast he launched on developing the champion mindset. His most recent episodes include interviews with Colton Underwood and Cole Sager.    As always, if you any questions, please don't hesitate to reach on our website www.faithrxd.org  or on social @faithrxd. We'd also love to connect you to a local chapter. Despite physical distancing, our chapters are still holding regular FAITH + FITNESS Events online, as well as various SERVICE Projects.
