In this episode of the Misfit podcast, the squad discusses the upcoming changes to the 2025 CrossFit Games season, including the new structure of the Open and its implications for athletes and programming. We delve into the complexities of CrossFit semifinal programming, and the intricacies of Games qualification. With a focus on inclusivity and the fittest athletes, we discuss the implications of the global leaderboard shift, regional challenges, and the role of events like the Rogue Invitational.
As we explore athlete classification and tailored programming, we reflect on the resilience needed to succeed in this dynamic sport. With a return to sanctionals, athletes face a new landscape filled with both opportunities and challenges. From the logistical hurdles of global participation and travel to the financial realities of sponsorships and prize purses, we examine how these changes impact athletes' careers and motivations.
We celebrate Coach Hunter's incredible achievement of joining the 500-lbs club with his deadlift!
