"We are routinely challenged to provide workouts for individuals with little workout experience and very limited resources." - Greg Glassman

In this final episode of the exercise series, Lisa steps out of theory and into lived experience — sharing a personal essay written during her senior year of college. Titled “Inside the Box,” the piece chronicles one intense day inside a CrossFit gym. Topics Include:CrossFit Exercise EnthusiastsCommunityPersonal Transformation[1:05] Lisa explains her intention to wrap up the conversation on exercise by sharing a personal essay she wrote 10 years ago, rather than continuing with her own thoughts, theories, and ideas on the subject. Lisa notes it was a paper written for an investigative journalism class in her senior year of college in 2015. She mentions it is optional reading in the group coaching program's exercise module. The essay, “Inside the Box,” details one day of a CrossFit workout. Lisa describes the workout emphasizing the extreme intensity and challenge.[4:52] Lisa describes the physical environment of the CrossFit gym, referred to as a “box,” as a space dedicated to transforming bodies and minds. The gym's layout includes workout equipment like kettlebells, medicine balls, and free weights on one wall, and rowing machines and pull-up bars on the other. A whiteboard advertises CrossFit as an “anti-aging drug” with side effects including stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, agility, coordination, balance, accuracy, and community.[8:12] Lisa describes the official CrossFit philosophy, established by Greg Glassman in 2000, aims for overall improvement in all capacities rather than specialization. Lisa talks about the program's controversial reputation due to injuries, hospitalizations, and deaths, with rhabdomyolysis being a known repercussion. [11:57] Lisa recounts her participation in a highly encouraged fundamentals class, designed to teach prospective athletes “how to walk before learning how to run.” With a personal trainer, she learned proper form for deadlifts, presses, squats, snatches, and thrusters using a 15-pound training bar, before graduating to join the regular class.[19:05] Lisa highlights the strong sense of community, mutual support, and camaraderie. She describes how finished athletes support those still working out and how CrossFitters are attracted to the atmosphere, community, camaraderie, and sense of belonging, [23:42] Lisa recounts her lifelong dread of gym class and the mile run, starting her fitness journey at 302 pounds at her first Jenny Craig appointment, aiming to halve her body weight. Lisa describes months of diverse exercises and particularly challenging interval training on the treadmill with a stern trainer. She details the physical discomfort and her internal struggle. Lisa describes the mindset shift from resistance to a “bring-it-bitch attitude,” where temporary suffering became an indication of pushing limits, resulting in feelings of power, strength, achievement, and triumph, and feeling invincible. Lisa explains why CrossFit's intensity, addiction, and cult-like following do not surprise her.[41:18] Lisa clarifies that her essay reflects her personal experience and investigation. She emphasizes that CrossFit varies greatly depending on the gym (“box”) and its community, and her experience may not be universal for all CrossFit participants. Lisa ends the series by thanking all of her listeners for going on the journey with her.*The views of podcast guests do not necessarily reflect the views and beliefs of Lisa Schlosberg or Out of the Cave, LLC.⁠Purchase the OOTC book of 50 Journal Prompts⁠⁠Leave Questions and Feedback for Lisa via OOTC Pod Feedback Form ⁠Email Lisa: ⁠lisa@lisaschlosberg.com⁠⁠Out of the Cave Merch⁠ - For 10% off use code SCHLOS10Lisa's Socials⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠Facebook⁠ ⁠YouTube⁠Reclaiming Peace With Food Retreat at the Omega Institute - September 7-12, 2025

This week on the podcast we sit down with 12-year 8:30am regular — Scott Walker to talk about his incredible experience taking on 29029 Everesting. In this unique endurance event, participants have 36 hours to climb 29,029 feet — the vertical equivalent of summiting Mount Everest — by hiking up and down a mountain repeatedly. Scott shares how a recent carpal tunnel surgery became the catalyst for shifting gears and training for one of the most mentally and physically demanding challenges of his life. We get into the training, the event itself, and what it really means to push your limits.This one's all about grit, and showing up for the next big thing — even after life throws you a curveball.

In this episode of the DPT to CEO Interview Series, we're chatting with Dr. Breanna Guettler, founder of Rocket City Performance Therapy—a mobile, cash-based PT practice helping CrossFitters, weightlifters, and high-performing athletes stay strong, mobile, and pain-free. With a background in competitive gymnastics and years of experience in CrossFit, Breanna brings a results-driven, athlete-first approach to rehab that meets people where they're at—literally and figuratively.In this conversation, Breanna shares how her intense desire to create a specific vision for her life and future family gave her the clarity and drive to overcome the early hurdles of entrepreneurship. She dives into the mindset shift that helped her push through moments of doubt, the fears she faced when starting her business, how she learned to sell her services, and what she loves (and doesn't love) about being a business owner. Her advice for new entrepreneurs? Get clear on your “why”—because once you know that, the “how” falls into place. And the “when” is now.Whether you're a new business owner, a therapist ready to leave the traditional clinic behind, or simply someone looking for a dose of motivation, this interview is full of relatable insights and real-world wisdom from someone who's built her business from the ground up.

In this dynamic episode of Proven Health Alternatives, I'm joined by 7x CrossFit Games athlete Bethany Flores and performance coach Randy Flores for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges athletic training, nutritional science, and holistic wellness. We explore Bethany's evolution from competitive bodybuilding to elite CrossFit, and how diverse athletic foundations—like gymnastics and strength training—have uniquely shaped her competitive advantage. She opens up about overcoming chronic back pain, the mental and physical toll of injury, and how laser therapy, strategic rehab, and personal support became crucial to her recovery. Randy shares his approach to training high-performance athletes—including his work with the Los Angeles Lakers—with key takeaways on energy system optimization, posterior chain strength, and training intensity balance. Bethany also offers a vulnerable and empowering look into her journey with eating disorders, gut health struggles, and the nutritional strategies she uses to sustain elite performance—reminding us that looking fit doesn't always mean functioning optimally. Whether you're a competitive athlete, health enthusiast, or practitioner, this episode delivers a wealth of insights on building a body—and a mindset—that lasts. Key Takeaways: CrossFit requires a strategic understanding of mixed energy systems for optimal performance. Bethany's diverse athletic journey showcases the importance of foundational bodybuilding and gymnastics in CrossFit success. Managing chronic back injury involves an integrated approach including laser therapy, postural restoration, and varied training intensity. The role of a comprehensive nutritional strategy is crucial for maintaining gut health and supporting elite athletic performance. More About Bethany & Randy Flores: Bethany Flores is a 7-time CrossFit Games athlete whose journey through elite sport is a testament to grit, adaptability, and holistic resilience. Her athletic roots began in competitive gymnastics at age 5, later branching out into endurance racing, obstacle course competitions, and amateur bodybuilding before discovering her passion for CrossFit. Bethany has faced and overcome chronic back issues that nearly ended her career—emerging stronger through cutting-edge therapies, mental fortitude, and a commitment to smart, sustainable performance.

After years of tumult and changes in ownership and leadership, CrossFit once again finds itself on the precipice of transition — and there are armchair experts everywhere.But you'd be hard-pressed to find any with the perspective trifecta Daniel Chaffey has: as International Director for CrossFit, LLC, the founder of the French Throwdown, and founder of CrossFit Louvre. In this episode of the Infinitely Scalable podcast, Chaffey and hosts Tony Ronchi, Cary Hair, and Andrew Charlesworth dig into the opportunities and challenges facing CrossFit today — and what he'd do if he were at the helm.“I think everything should be at the service of the community and of the affiliates,” Chaffey says.“I think the short-term V.C. private equity approach is, by its definition, at odds with building a long-term community.”--CHAPTERS0:00 Agenda and doing the right thing.2:47 America vs Europe: Commercialism, sales, and health.8:39 The value of affiliates in today's world.12:01 Prospecting — and actually talking about what you do in your affiliate.25:30 If Chaffey were in charge: Open kickbacks, affiliate pricing, and the problem with private equity.33:50 Re-envisioning CrossFit HQ and education. 36:46 Merging the Games and the community. 43:31 Being unapologetic — but not afraid of criticism.46:27 The power of a common enemy.49:57 Playing infinite games for people vs. finite games for shareholders.58:57 Getting back to being the world's greatest training methodology.1:01:50 A conduit for affiliate owners to grow their wealth.1:08:38 How do we rebuild trust? 1:17:23 The best way forward.--https://www.instagram.com/dc1andonly/?hl=en--Infinitely Scalable Podcast: Helping entrepreneurs, creatives, and humans everywhere find freedom.

Every day we take a breath from the busy work day to hang out with friends and talk about the world of Sports, Entertainment and specifically CrossFit. Today we talk about adult conversations,  Clearing up my statement in Athena's Journal Post.  And we will talk about what all y'all have and whatever else may come up.

"The L-Sit - This exercise is remarkable from several perspectives. It is isometric, functional, and highly effective. Relatively unknown outside of the gymnastics community this exercise may be the most effective abdominal exercise we know of!" - Greg Glassman

-A VNR listener asked the following question, “I've been thinking about the pathway to become a consistent CrossFitter. Are there any lessons that we can learn from the people who stick with it?”-Pat & Boz answer this question.

Big Box Gyms: Yay or Nay? And how do they compare to working out with a personal trainer? Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher look at big box gyms and the benefits of working with a personal trainer. You'll hear about everything from motivation and habit-building to fitness results, and will walk away with clarity on which option to go for to make the most out of your time and exercising efforts. Dr. James Fisher kicks things off by sharing a frightening stat: only about 10% of the population engages in regular strength training. What's interesting is the fact that only about one-third of people attend big box gyms, meaning that about two-thirds of people don't actually even attend once per week… Dr. Fisher and some of his colleagues have done some research and have identified a lack of motivation, not being supervised and advised by a personal trainer, and not seeing progress from your workouts, as key factors that lead to that phenomenon. Did you know that 50% of new gym members will stop their membership within the first six months because of non-attendance? True, big box gyms provide you with the space and equipment you need… but if you aren't already engaged or lack a certain level of understanding and commitment, you won't attend regularly. To some degree, gyms are reliant upon a degree of non-attendance – if all of their members showed up at the same time, they would have to turn some people away because of maximum occupancy. Dr. Fisher touches upon a couple of big social elements that play a crucial role in the big box gym context. Ask yourself this: “When thinking about the gym, do I go there for the health benefits of exercising or for the social element in that environment?” Amy Hudson talks about the lack of time aspect that's often part of the equation for many people who are thinking about strength training. Dr. Fisher and Amy discuss how a model like the Exercise Coach Studio's one differs from big box gyms and helps people succeed. Studies on exercising motivation show that, unlike other groups like people who focus on CrossFit, people engaged in supervised strength training reported higher motivation for things such as ill health avoidance and health-related benefits as key reasons for exercising. Amy lists one of the key motivators for having a personal trainer: it collapses the timeline for you to get where you want to get to. As she points out, getting people to that place of seeing results faster will lead to them being motivated and wanting to continue with exercising regularly. Amy shares a question they often ask their Exercise Coach: “If you and I were sitting here a year from today, what things would have to happen for you to feel very satisfied with your progress?” Amy and Dr. Fisher go into studies in which participants were paid to go to the gym… but were still unsuccessful with exercising regularly. A good reminder from Amy: motivation is hard to keep, and it's important to stay honest about that.     Mentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!
