Big news: CrossFit is not for sale. Bruce Edwards, the new CEO made that a condition of taking the job.At the 2026 Two-Brain Summit in Chicago, Chris Cooper sat down live on stage with Bruce for a wide-ranging conversation about the future of CrossFit.Bruce isn't a newcomer to CrossFit. He was an original client of Greg Glassman in the late 1990s, one of the early guinea pigs who helped shape the methodology. He later owned CrossFit Aptos, served as COO of CrossFit and has now returned as CEO with a clear mandate: Fix the perception problem, rebuild affiliate value and bring the movement back to its roots.In this episode of “Run a Profitable Gym,” Chris asks the big questions affiliate owners are asking, and Bruce shares his honest vision for what comes next for CrossFit.Tune in to hear a candid conversation about CrossFit's future under Bruce's leadership.LinksGym Owners UnitedBook a Call0:00 - Intro0:20 - Why Bruce almost said no to the CEO role6:43 - CrossFit's North Star8:46 - The Games vs. the affiliate story13:22 - The future of CrossFit media15:00 - Do GLP-1s have a place in fitness?20:25 - Bruce's stance on partnerships28:15 - A message to de-affiliated owners30:07 - What affiliates should do right now
Bruce Edwards just became CEO of CrossFit. Two-Brain founder Chris Cooper thinks it's the right call, and he has a very personal reason for saying so:Bruce fired him. Personally.In this episode of “Run a Profitable Gym,” Two-Brain CEO John Franklin sits down with Chris for an unfiltered reaction to the April 28, 2026, appointment, following Don Faul's resignation in March.In 2018, when Bruce trimmed the CrossFit Media team, Chris learned everything he needed to know about the kind of leader Bruce is.“Bruce could have delegated the job. He didn't,” Chris said. “He picked up the phone himself and did the hard thing the right way—head-on, with clarity and respect.”Chris explains exactly why Bruce is the right person for this moment, from his time as CrossFit's COO during the brand's biggest growth phase to his experience as a CrossFit affiliate co-owner himself.He also traces Bruce's career since CrossFit—leading growth at In-Shape Health Clubs, barre3 and one of the largest Planet Fitness franchise groups in the country—and says that experience makes him even more qualified for the job.Chris opens up about why he quietly ended his own affiliation in 2022 after 14 years, what it would take to bring him back, and the three signs he'll be watching for in the next year to know whether the ship is actually turning around.Then Chris and John tackle the bigger questions: why affiliate counts keep declining, how Greg Glassman fits into this transition and what Bruce needs to do first to rebuild trust with the affiliate community.LinksGym Owners UnitedBook a Call0:55 - Why Chris left CrossFit in 20225:26 - Bruce's role in CrossFit's growth7:29 - Bruce's post-CrossFit career9:46 - Why affiliate counts keep declining 18:42 - What's sacred and what has to change27:48 - Chris' message to affiliates29:36 - How Greg Glassman fits in

"The clean is a pure bit of functionality. The clean is simply pulling a load from the ground to the shoulders where frequently the object is being readied for lifting overhead." - Greg Glassman
"In the second issue of CrossFit Journal, “What is Fitness?” we explored the nature of metabolic condi- tioning, or “cardio”, and highlighted some of the quali- ties of and distinctions between aerobic and anaerobic exercise, and touched on interval training. In this issue we'll reexamine metabolic and interval training in a little more detail." - Greg Glassman

"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

Rob breaks down the 357 strength progression, a training method that combines strength training with short work capacity efforts. He explains its origins, design, and practical applications, as well as the results of a study comparing it to other training methods. The discussion highlights the effectiveness of 357 in improving both strength and endurance, making it suitable for various athletes. Check MTI's 357 Strength Training Plan Takeaways 357 is a unique strength progression that combines strength training with work capacity. The method was influenced by various coaching philosophies, including those from Louis Simmons and Greg Glassman. The structure of 357 includes a 1RM lift, followed by a percentage-based lift, and a work capacity event. The work capacity events are designed to enhance hormonal response and improve overall fitness. A study showed that 357 matched strength gains of traditional methods while improving endurance. The program is designed to be fun and engaging for athletes. Weekly training can be structured to include total, lower, and upper body lifts. The ideal cycle duration for strength emphasis is around four to five weeks. 357 is suitable for athletes looking to improve both strength and work capacity. The program has remained consistent and effective over the years. ----more---- Mountain Tactical Institute Home Check out the MTI Athlete Team Apply to be a Paid MTI Athlete MTI's Daily Programming Streams

One of the really cool things about doing what I do is you get to meet and sometimes talk with people who become intellectual heroes to me. I don't have very many intellectual heroes because I try not to have human heroes, but intellectually speaking, Greg Glassman, founder, former CEO of CrossFit, is that to me. This is a guy who observed in a multi-billion dollar industry of fitness, no one could actually say what fitness meant. So, he put this amazing scientific mind with which God has gifted him to work and figured out how would you define fitness and then how would you achieve it. People who don't understand the basis of CrossFit don't understand that that's the way it disrupted the fitness industry by actually defining the thing people were seeking.Wisdom Nutrition https://trywisdomnow.com/toddStock up on Wisdom for 33% off plus free shipping.

Very tragic as if you saw the first interview really hit Greg hard that that happened. We also sat down though with a purpose and that was to discuss the broken nature of science in America. The scientific process has been perverted and destroyed by people who seek to use it for profit.(...) Greg of course made a huge profit with the scientific mind in CrossFit by defining fitness and then going about achieving fitness. But he made some predictions. Greg predicted that his process constantly varied functional movements performed at high intensity, which will increase your work capacity abroad across broad time and modal spectrums would result in creating athletes who could go squat 500 pounds and then turn around and run a sub five minute mile that was unheard of. People said you're insane. You can't do it. He predicted that this form of exercise would reverse type 2 diabetes and it did. He has the mind of a scientist and you know what he says doesn't work in science anymore? Peer reviewed papers. He has one thing in mind in terms of fixing science which is to show people something called a P value to teach it to feature it and to honor it.Alan's Soaps https://www.alansartisansoaps.comUse coupon code ‘TODD' to save an additional 10% off the bundle price.Bioptimizers https://bioptimizers.com/toddStart your journey to better health with MassZymes.

One of the really cool things about doing what I do is you get to meet and sometimes talk with people who become intellectual heroes to me. I don't have very many intellectual heroes because I try not to have human heroes, but intellectually speaking, Greg Glassman, founder, former CEO of CrossFit, is that to me. This is a guy who observed in a multi-billion dollar industry of fitness, no one could actually say what fitness meant. So, he put this amazing scientific mind with which God has gifted him to work and figured out how would you define fitness and then how would you achieve it. People who don't understand the basis of CrossFit don't understand that that's the way it disrupted the fitness industry by actually defining the thing people were seeking.Alan's Soaps https://www.alansartisansoaps.comUse coupon code ‘TODD' to save an additional 10% off the bundle price.Bioptimizers https://bioptimizers.com/toddStart your journey to better health with MassZymes.

In this episode of the Evolution of Medicine podcast, James Maskell speaks with Emily Kaplan of the Broken Science Initiative. They dive deep into the flaws of modern science, particularly in the context of medicine, and discuss how these issues contribute to the chronic disease epidemic. Emily Kaplan and Greg Glassman of CrossFit co-founded the Broken Science Initiative to address these deep-rooted problems and promote true scientific inquiry. During this episode, you will hear an argument that the modern scientific method, especially in medicine, has become corrupted by political and financial interests, leading to a replication crisis and widespread statistical manipulation. Emily Kaplan also differentiates medicine and public health, criticizing the latter as being more about political consensus than clinical significance, leading to flawed public health policies. Tune in for a conversation that explores: Why there has been a decline in moral obligation to patients in hospital settings The loss of physician authority and how that impacts patients Flawed research and corruption in science Critiques of public health How CrossFit can help reverse the chronic disease epidemic. And much more! This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the deep issues within the scientific community and how they impact public health and medicine.

Brothers Dick and Peter Dreissigacker used their experience as Olympic-level rowers to build a rowing machine that captured the sensation of being on the water. Initially made of bicycle parts in a Vermont barn, the machines had a limited market at first: mostly rowing clubs and schools that competed in the sport. But in the 2000's, business began to take off when Greg Glassman, the founder of Crossfit, began putting the machines into his gyms. Today Concept2 sells rowing machines to thousands of gyms and teams around the world, plus rowers, stationary bikes and skiing machines for people who train at home.This episode was produced by J.C.

The news exploded while lives on air. We talk a swing a miss from Hiller, Mal annouces she's out for another season and what a better warm up really is in CrossFit. Written by Greg Glassman, Published April 2003 "In commercial gyms everywhere, warming up constitutes little more than spending fifteen or twenty minutes on a bike, treadmill, or stair climber. While better than nothing, this approach to warming up is largely a waste of time in that it will not improve flexibility, does not involve the whole body or major functional movements, misses an ideal opportunity for reinforcing and practicing some critical exercises, and poorly prepares an athlete for rigorous athletic training." - Greg Glassman
Written by Greg Glassman, Published March 2003 "It is CrossFit's contention that cops and soldiers are professional athletes. In fact, we argue that the physical preparedness required of military combat - and by extension law enforcement - matches and regularly surpasses that required of Olympic athletes." - Greg Glassman
Written by Greg Glassman, Published March 2003 "The push-up, long a favorite among junior high school P.E. teachers and Marine Corps drill instructors, is for many, more closely associated with punishment than anything else. Though common to group exercise programs, its use in serious strength and conditioning regimens is infrequent." - Greg Glassman
Written by Greg Glassman, Published 2003 "Our kids and our seniors squat, deadlift, push-press, push-jerk, clean and jerk, snatch, pull-up, dip, push-up, bench press, back/hip extend, sit-up, and rope climb. Less weight, fewer reps, more rest, whatever is required to allow exposure to the movements at a challenging but tolerable and intensity is all that is needed to accommodate most special needs."
