#46:  In a special bonus episode, we continue our celebration of National Volunteer Week with Phoenix volunteer Susannah Wingfield. The first to bring Phoenix classes to Detroit, Susannah's path to sobriety was inextricably linked to her CrossFit journey and the non-judgmental community she found at her own gym. We discuss the influence of CrossFit on Susannah's recovery, how she gives back to her community, and much more: Susannah's work as a social worker and how she must balance between tenderness and toughness,  How through this work, Susannah has learned to find at least one thing about each person that she truly likes and appreciates, even when that person refuses help, The vitality but simultaneous difficulty of asking for help when you're stuck in a rut, Her desire to bring free CrossFit classes to others seeking recovery, knowing how much the community and physicality supported her own recovery,The ways her efforts to give back aligned with The Phoenix movement, Her assertion that each individual can make a positive contribution to their community in a variety of ways... Come as you are! What it's like when no one comes to class; and the power of showing up anyway.  The compassion and understanding she had to cultivate to know  each person will take that first step in their own time.    Once again, THANK YOU to Susannah and all of our volunteers that continue to spark hope and build the connections and community that drive this recovery movement.Want to become a volunteer?  After you attend at least one Phoenix event you gain access to a volunteer application through the mobile app. Everyone has something to offer, and there is always a need for your unique contribution. Join the Phoenix community & sign up for classes with a single click by downloading The Phoenix App!

“I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.”  – Mother Teresa I am excited to welcome #FITFAM to the T&T mic, Aaron Brill and Manny Menendez. I have trained for years with Aaron and was excited to learn that he was bringing CrossFit in a unique way to his then day job, as a police officer. Arron was inspired by an experience through a friend that experienced deep changes because of the fitness modality- so he decided to introduce CrossFit and its principles to the other “insiders” and Lions' Pride Fitness was born. Lions' Pride Fitness is a CrossFit Community for those in or returning from incarceration. With over 5 years of experience in building CrossFit programs inside prison, they wanted to continue that community success outside. Arron was lucky enough to cross paths with Army Combat Veteran, Manny Menendez, who he brought on board to help guide the Lions' Pride Fitness process. Arron and Manny share their passion for fitness, community, and questioning a better way regarding re-entrance into mainstream society- regardless of where you are coming from. We all know antiquated systems need change, but what a refreshing approach to take things into your own hands and contribute where you can. This is a great convo about shifting perspectives and providing space for growth and change. What a world we would have if we all could do more of that!   Highlights: CrossFit and incarceration. Community, commitment, and working towards something larger. Perspective and opportunity. Systems and approach. Mindset of what we CAN do. Viewing people up close to lose your own bias. Humanizing leadership and meeting people where they are at. Taking existing skills and applying them to a legal game. Opportunity, hope, and evolution.   Aaron Brill Aaron is 25-year veteran of law enforcement (retired Feb '21), with the last 22 on Denver PD. Aaron spent 12 years as a patrol cop,  and 8 as an Academy Instructor where he found and fell in love with CrossFit, and 5 years as a patrol sergeant. He is a Co-founder of two non-profits aimed at bringing the whole person wellness of CrossFit to the justice system involved population. He is a proud husband of an amazing woman and Dad of two littles (6 year old daughter and 4 year old son).   Manny Menendez SSG, USA(Ret.) B.A.S. CF-L1 Lead Program Coordinator Veterans Healing Veterans from The Inside Out My name is Manny Menendez I am a US Army Combat Veteran.  After multiple deployments and injuries, I was medically retired from the service in 2013. I went on to earn my bachelor's degree after the service. Shortly thereafter I found myself incarcerated at Sterling Correctional Facility; this is where I found CrossFit.  Aaron at the time was the president of the CrossFit program inside the prison and we helped establish/build the program at sterling.  To this day I'm thankful for the work Aaron has done behind the wall and paving the way for CrossFit to be a part of that unique environment.  Thanks to his work I was able to earn my CF-L1 behind bars.  CrossFit has helped me make some foundational changes in my life and given me that structure, discipline, Comradery that I fell far away from during my transition out of the service.  Now I am very passionate about helping those in prison and reentering the community through CrossFit and working out.  I currently work as the lead program coordinator for veterans healing veterans, we are the largest organization advocating for the almost 200,000 justice involved veterans. We run a curriculum, which is based on narration therapy where we go in and help our nations forgot about hero's process some of their trauma so they are not finding themselves in these same positions.  I have a very unique journey, but am truly blessed to have gone through it all, because now I have found my purpose/life's work and that is invaluable to me.  Thank you for your time.  I look forward to the future and continuing this amazing work we are doing, truly impacting lives and making better human beings.    Lions' Pride Fitness: Mission: We exist to bring the full person wellness of CrossFit combined with peer and community mentorship to the Justice System Involved (JSI) population.

WHAT IS BUSINESS REBRANDING? BUSINESS REBRANDING DEFINITION Rebranding is when a previously owned business or current business changes or updates its current branding. Business Rebranding is performed to change the corporate image of an organization. Business Rebranding is a strategy of giving a new name, symbol, color scheme, feel, or design for an already recognized brand. The idea behind business rebranding is to create a differentiated brand from its competitors in the market by presenting a new unique, updated, and refreshed brand. PROACTIVE REBRANDING VS. REACTIVE REBRANDING There are two main reasons a company will go through a rebranding. The business is either doing a proactive rebranding or a reactive rebranding.

Welcome to Part Two of our Three-Part Crucial Conversations Series. In this series, we gathered most of the coaching staff in addition to our members of color for one evening so they could share their experiences to help us all come to a mutual understanding of the racial issues affecting our country and more specifically, the CrossFit Community. This episode is the beginning of answering the questions that the NFX Community anonymously asked about these racial issues including understanding the issues at a deeper level and how we can all come together as a community (including loving and respecting our police force too). Once again, we ask that you listen to these episodes with an open mind and an open heart. 

James and I talk about the recent events in the CrossFit Space and where we stand. Raw, honest and real. We don't have all the answers, but we talk about where we are at now and what we hope to see and why. Happy to talk, support and help if you need, just let us know.

In today's podcast we are going to try and walk you through the several events that have happened the last few days including the CEO of CrossFit® Greg Glassman's tweet, his email response to Rocket Community Fitness (formerly Rocket CrossFit), and the ensuing fallout. Many affiliates are now unaffiliating, Reebok, Rogue, and ROMWOD have publicly distanced themselves from the brand, and at least 3 CF games athletes have now declined their 2020 invites.

Don't forget, links to all of these stories are in the show notes of your friendly neighborhood podcasting app, as well as on the new WODDITY.com.Elite Sports InsiderAfter a two week hiatus, Elite Sports Insider is back this weekend. ESI is our weekly YouTube live show, run like a poor man's do-it-yourself SportsCenter with the tagline, “Please don't sue us.” I'm so beyond excited for this week's episode because it kicks off a six week series. Yes! Six weeks! Each week, for the next month and a half, we are profiling ten CrossFit athletes who have received invites to the 2020 CrossFit Games. Ten athletes a week for six weeks covers the full field of sixty athletes invited to the CrossFit Ranch in Aromas, California. And that even leaves us with a little bit of time to cover any athletes who received trickle-down invites from international athletes forced to decline due to travel restrictions.I love doing the show, but I needed the vacation, ya'll.

To name a few.Dave Castro's 2020 CrossFit Games CluesCrossFit Games Director and Director...of...Training...or...whatever Dave Castro's second job at CrossFit is…Dave Castro has started into CrossFit Games workout teaser season this week, by posting a video to his Instagram story that skirts around the edges of a whiteboard we know is filled with all sorts of workout treachery. 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...
