Great interview with a top CrossFit performer (Mens Health) THE TEAM

This is a great interview that I'd recommend reading from one of the top CrossFit games athletes. If I see a good article that I think you will get value from I'll pass it along. Men's Health did the interview in July before the games.

Dan Bailey CrossFit Athlete

I think his response to why he likes CrossFit I couldn't agree with more. "My favorite thing about CrossFit is the community. If you walk into a typical gym you see most people in solution with their headphones while watching TV. Compare that to a CrossFit gym and you will see people that welcome you, talk about the workout, motivate and coach one another."

This relates exactly to athletics! When you belong to a TEAM they have your back, they push you and your team supports you on and off the field. It helps to have that positive team atmosphere when you are training and when game time rolls around it's time to perform. Even if your training or competing in the CrossFit games individual events or any individual event every athlete will tell you that the people they've trained with helped them get there! I hope you got value out of this. Keep pushing the people you train with, they will thank you later.
