Episode description
James Fitzgerald is Crossfit Games inaugural world champion, coach of coaches at OPEX Fitness, a good friend of mine, and most importantly a family man.
His approach to fitness changed my entire paradigm — particularly as it has helped me prioritize sustainability, longevity and enjoyment.
In this episode, James and I discuss…
→ The importance of rest and recovery for extending our quality of life.
→ Defining success inside of what we are capable of, both mind and body.
→ How to optimize our cognitive function as we move through each stage of our journey.
→ Modeling behavior to our children rather than molding little versions of ourselves.
→ Why it’s crucial to address long term goals when considering fitness regimens.
→ And more!
