Since meeting Zakk in 2020, in between lock-downs at a local Crossfit gym, I have now seen him DJ at multiple Crossfit competitions around the UK and he delivers absolute bangers every single time. With Zakk recently landing a job working for FitAid & his recent DJ sets at Wodapolooza and the Crossfit Games semi finals, I had to get him on the podcast for a good chat. Albeit straight after a brutal workout at Eleven Eleven Sports Performance, I really enjoyed this one.

Today Adrian and Freya talk about what got her into CrossFit, which may surprise some of you as she admittedly got in the training just to compete! She discusses her experiences as a young athlete and how shes learned many lessons in her few short years in the sport of CrossFit. She also talks about not being able to compete in person until Wodapolooza this past year in Miami where she took 10th in a stacked field of ladies. Now she finds herself under the tuteledge of Michele Letrende and rubbing shoulders with some of the fittest athletes in CrossFit Games history, specificaly in Pat Vellner and what that is like for her. Freya has big intentions this year, and she doesn't hold back in sharing them with us today. She's focused and ready for her opportunity at the Atlas games in just a short time.

One of Ben and Blairs final releases from Wodapolooza in Miami is a great one! Adrian Conway talks about everything that you’d want to know about when it comes to FNX, competing and shares a personal mantra.

In Episode #3 of the Mindful Life Podcast, I talk with 27yo Adapted CrossFit athlete Josh Young from Melbourne, Australia. In 2017 the young father of 2, with another baby on the way, was seriously injured in a mountain bike accident, as a result Josh is now a T12 Paraplegic. I was lucky enough to have a chat with Josh about his journey to becoming an adapted athlete representing Australia, incredibly just 2 short years after his accident. Josh tells us a story of obstacles and struggle but he also tells a story of determination, acceptance, compassion and gratitude and of living in the moment. Josh's positive attitude and positive outlook are truly inspiring and an incredible lesson for us all. ****If you'd like to assist Josh with sponsorship or to support him in any way on his journey to Miami, to compete at Wodapolooza as Australia's only qualifying adapted athlete, please email nicky@crossfitdiamondvalley.com To contact Josh direct, find him on Instagram under the handle young.josh_ If for any reason, you have found the content of todays podcast triggering or distressing in any way please consider accessing some professional support (Aust only); Telephone Counselling support *Beyond Blue 1300 22 4636 *Lifeline 131114 You can find The Mindful Life Podcast on Facebook and Instagram under the handle Mindful Life Podcast.
