Look at this handsome group of lads. So relaxed, so full of hope... but not for long. The 2019 Crossfit Open is upon us once again, and with it returns #trashtalkthursday ! As the only 2019 Crossfit Games Athlete in the bunch, I’m looking forward to 5 weeks of nurturing and being a father figure to these fine young men. Like a shepherd leads his herd, I too will lead these boys to the promised land of fitness. I may even let them win a few. Here’s a quick intro to this year’s crew: . fikowski : also a fit Canadian. Low key loves being in a sport where he is considered tall. Almost 3x games podium performer. travismfwilliams : Went team so that he could hang out with Rich Froning. Loves to talk shit, occasionally backs it up. Has one speed. jasoncarroll89 : Runs an earring exchange with Travis. Proposed to his wife at the games and had Castro at his wedding. Probably knows all the open workouts. esslingerlukas : not even the fittest European Lukas at the games, but man is he handsome...
