Introducing CrossFit’s New CEO, Don Faul

2022 NOBULL CrossFit Games Finale Recap (from Morning Chalk Up)

The final day of the 16th annual NOBULL CrossFit Games in Madison, WI is over, and with that the 2022 Games season has concluded.

Well, it’s all done, and the champions have been crowned for another year. Although it looked like we might have some new blood atop the podiums, this year turned out to be exactly like last year as all three champions – Justin Medeiros, Tia-Clair Toomey and Rich Froning’s CrossFit Mayhem Freedom all won, again. But we saw some new faces join the fold, most notably Emma Lawson, Arielle Loewen, Ricky Garard and Roman Khrennikov, so the future is definitely bright

One big number: This is now the number of all numbers: six. That is the amount of straight titles Toomey has won, which puts her ahead of Froning’s four and Mat Fraser’s five.

Day 5 By The Numbers

Here are some final numbers to round out the 2022 CrossFit Games:

  • 2 – Back-to-back Games wins for Justin Medieros.
  • 3 – Medeiros is the third man to win back-to-back Games wins following Froning and Fraser.
  • 6 – The total number of CrossFit Games individual wins by Tia-Clair Toomey, making her the winningest and greatest Games athlete of all time.
  • 7 – The number of consecutive first place event finishes by CrossFit Mayhem beating their own record from last year.
  • 10 – The total number of Games gold medals that Rich Froning has won. He took four as an individual, and with this one, six as a team athlete.
  • 17 – The age of 2022 rookie of the year, Emma Lawson.
  • 18 – Mal O’Brien’s age as the youngest ever podium athlete in Games history. Annie Thorisdottir was the previous youngest at 20 in 2010.

One last thing: In case you are already itching for another season, CrossFit has already announced that the 2023 campaign will kick off with the CrossFit Open on Feb. 16 and the Games themselves will kick off earlier than this year — July 31st. Start the countdown!

SRCF Olympic Lifting Clinic
  • When: 8/27 Saturday 9:45am-11:15am
  • Where: SRCF (Duh)
  • Cost: $20 (Register via MindBody avail starting 8/15)
  • Led by Coaches Julianna , Reid and Zeke

This Oly clinic will focus on the Snatch and the Snatch progression. Building from the Overhead Squat, the coaches will teach progressions through both power and squat snatch. The focus will be on technique over load and emphasize bar path, speed and positioning.

This will not be a “strength session” or lifting day. This is intended to improve your skill, technique and speed so that you come away with a solid foundation to make gains and PR’s. Expect to master a PVC and barbell and light loads with full range of motion before adding any weight.

Fly Like a Butterfly — Tips for the Kip

CrossFit Gymnastics: The butterfly pull-up is an alternative style of kipping pull-ups and chest-to-bars.

The timing and position of the kip are counterintuitive towards the beat swing.

The buttery butterfly kip is for pull-ups and chest-to-bars only.

Remember, we are only kipping to increase the intensity, not achieve a movement.⁠

2022 Last-Chance Qualifier Workouts Released

The Last-Chance Qualifier gives athletes who narrowly missed a spot at the Semifinals one more chance to make it to this year’s CrossFit Games in Madison. Athletes will have from Wednesday through Friday to complete the four workouts. At the close of competition, the top two men and top two women will receive a ticket to the Games.

The LCQ workouts are designed to separate the very, very good from the best, but don’t be surprised to see renditions of them as Workouts of the Day this week.
