CrossFit Radio Games Special Edition 6

CrossFit Radio Games Special Edition #6 was webcast live at 2:00 PM PDT on July 12, 2009, after the sixth of seventh WODs in the individual competition had been completed and the finals for the Affiliate Cup were in progress.

Reporter Mike Warkentin provided an update on the latest standings and discussed how the WODs so far had played to individual strengths and weaknesses.

Next up was an interview with two brothers who are the talk of the Games. James FitzGerald is better known as OPT. His younger brother Mike, who is just 22, is known as OPT bro. They work together at James’s affiliate Optimum Performance Training. Justin discussed how it came to pass than five athletes from Optimum Performance Training qualified for the Games and four made it to the finals.

Chief Judge Adrian Bozman discussed judging standards, how judges are chosen, and why one judge is sometimes better than two.

The program concluded with Darrell “Bingo” White discussing how different athletes were tackling an important issue: rest and recovery after five tough workouts the day before.
