Girls Who CrossFit - brought to you by CrossFit Contessa

Girls Who CrossFit, brought to you by CrossFit Contessa, is focused on the improvement & empowerment of women (and some dudes!) from all walks of life. Our goal with this podcast is to educate and entertain listeners to understand and hopefully implement tips and tools to help them in and outside of the gym. We intend on having a guest join us regularly to help shed light on different topics around women's health, CrossFit and much, much more! We hope you love listening as much as we enjoy making each and every episode!

*Sound quality is shit.  Really sorry about this.  This and the next episode aren't great in terms of background noise, I promised I have made arrangements so this won't happen again - Please power through because these women are AMAZING and need to be heard! Just a couple of breast cancer survivors that have the BEST outlook on life and training.  We are celebrating the awareness and early detection of Breast Cancer with our Annual Barbells for Boobs event this month at CrossFit ...

#5 - Candice Lamb

Why are we a CrossFit Affiliate only for women?  Why does our model work?  We answer these questions and many more in this episode.  We came across a podcast from "Open Gym" with Pat Sherwood, interviewing Nerida Bint on being a womens only training facility. We loved the episode, we didn't love the comments on the Instagram post asking the @morningchalkup community; "Should more gyms cater exclusively to women?".. Let's just say a lot of people don't think so. :/ We explain a lit...

#2 - Bronwyn Delaivuna

I sit down with Bronny, a very valued part of our community here at Contessa, and we talked all things weightloss challenges. Unfortunately, this is the prime time for the fitness industry to capitalise on your shitty self esteem.. And make you pay for it, literally! We talk about the challenges she's done, what she's learned along the way and why YOU should give the next 8 week, 12 week or shiny new "life changing" challenge a miss. Let me know what you think of ep. #2! Thanks for your support ...
