Brent Fikowski: 8 x Crossfit Games Athlete
Description
We covered a tonne of ground in this conversation, with Brent looking back at his personal history in Crossfit, as well as the evolution of the sport itself.
Brent is a huge advocate for the establishment and cultivation of more professional standards in crossfit, to this end he- alongside other competitors and coaches- has founded the Professional Fitness Athlete’s Association, where they seek to raise the standards of competition in the fitness world and give athletes a voice.
We spoke at length about what Brent believes is holding back the competitive functional fitness world, and causing athletes to seek their competitive fix elsewhere, as well as the changes and standards Brent believes would bring Crossfit in line with other, more grandfathered sports.
Brent, also gave some incredibly insightful tips for anyone looking to nurture a burgeoning training career, alongside a full-time job- a situation he himself was in when he took silver in the 2017 Crossfit games
This was a great conversation for anyone interested in Crossfit, functional fitness, or organised sport at large, and Brent, of course is a Crossfit legend.
