Touch Grass. Get in the water. Feel the sun in your skin. Use your fitness. Eat some lobster too.

Spent the week learning from and watching the best.

Thanks to CrossFit for an awesome week back in Cali.☀️
Excited about what’s to come. 📚

Healers, not influencers. Healthcare, not sick care.
Reunion CrossFit Games with the OG mission-focused CrossFit Docs.
Some of the smartest people I know. Some of the kindest. Definitely the fittest. People I would trust with my life. Literally.

Everyone can’t know everything. Not everyone’s training includes this (nor should it). We all have our wheelhouse.

I hear this a lot.
Sometimes it’s referencing my gender, or my age, or my physique. Or all three.

Wrong answers only.

It’s not just about adding years to your life, strength training will add life to your years.
