#705: The CrossFit Effect

InnerFight
About this episode

Like it or don't, CrossFit has had a huge impact on the global fitness community over the last 20 years. Some have made a living from it by being an athlete, some have made a business from it.

Lives have been changed and new limits have been set. 

At the same time some have been injured beyond repair and just 12 months ago we saw the founder of CrossFit involved in all sorts of strange controversy which saw him step down from his post. So what's the deal? What's the effect? 

That's what we discuss in this weeks show.
