Being Brent Fikowski

What better way to prepare for some terrible workouts than by watching The Professor get insanely fit by using some bands?

But in all seriousness, Fikowski drops some great lines about having the appropriate mindset for training and competing at the highest level. It's hard to walk away from this two-part series not feeling like you can dominate the CrossFit Open.

BRIGGS 

Here's a reminder that, in 2014, Sam Briggs didn't make the Games after winning in 2013. That's rough — and many athletes would throw in the towel and move on after something like that, but not Sam Briggs. In this series, we catch up with Briggs right after her 2015 Regional performance where she took second place and qualified for the CrossFit Games again.
