Episode 9 - Allison Belger of NorCal Masters competition

November 25, 2019 20:02 - 44 minutes - 38.9 MB

This was a really fun conversation. Allison is an old school crossfitter, competitive personality, and cool AF person to talk to. She started NorCal Masters comp with her husband TJ (of TJ's gym) in order to compete against, well, other masters age athletes. Then she turned her attention to running the competition and did so for many years. This episode is by special request, because NorCal Masters has meant a LOT to the masters community over the years. It was one of the first, and definit...

November 18, 2019 23:02 - 54 minutes - 40.4 MB

In the CF Masters group on Facebook, we talk a lot about how the youngsters don't understand us old folks. It's true, they don't, but they can coach us. I pulled in my coach, Cheryl Hargrove to talk about what it means for someone under 30 to coach old people, we talk about how her dad went from struggling with mobility at 67 to watching his placing on the Open leaderboard, and we talk a little bit about mindset and training and nutrition.  If you want to find Cheryl, you can reach her on ...

Welcome to Episode 7 of Get off our lawn, the CF Masters group podcast. This week we have a very, very, very important topic and we have a couple of great friends and members of the group joining us. We’re talking about Mental Health. You might ask - What does that have to do with Crossfit? And that’s a great question because, for a lot of folks, mental health has nothing to do with Crossfit. For a few of us, however, Crossfit is a part of the puzzle that keeps us healthy both mentally an...

Episode 6 - Getting to know Jim Cordes - CF Masters member profile

November 04, 2019 23:06 - 46 minutes - 33.4 MB

First off - my apologies for missing a couple of weeks. It's been a bit of a shitshow with getting laid off and chasing down job leads and a side trip to hike the Grand Canyon on no training.... But here we are!!! In Episode 6 we get to know Jim Cordes. I've always enjoyed his whit and input, and it was great to sit down with him and learn his story, from Orange County kid to Santa Barbara attorney.

Episode 4 - Freddy Camacho - I got feet. What the fuck do I have to walk on my hands for?

October 07, 2019 13:00 - 56 minutes - 39.8 MB

If you don't know who Freddy Camacho is you should. He's about as OG crossfittter as it gets (think 2017 Games at the Ranch. Yeah. He was there). As in ownership in 3 affiliates over the years now Good For You Crossfit in Fremont, CA, as in he's already retired from one job (he was a cop), as in he's been at every Games, except 2013, as a participant in both individual and Masters, as a coach and most recently as a volunteer on the medical staff. If it's happened in Crossfit he's seen it and...

Episode 3 - Rebecca Shingledecker. Making Lemonade. Fighting a brain tumor with strength, attitude, perseverance and the CrossFit Community

September 30, 2019 13:00 - 1 hour - 46.5 MB

A huge part of Crossfit is our community. It was awesome talking to Rebecca who, in the space of a couple of weeks, went from active crossfitter and marathoner, to learning how to walk again. She's strong, she's tough, and she's funny as hell. She also ignored one of the most famous voices in marathon running who told her not to and ran the Boston marathon on less than 8 weeks of training. I guess that means she's a bit obstinate too. 18 months ago Rebecca, now 43 and a member of Crossfit P...
