In Affiliation, CrossFit, Radio
January 06, 2010
CrossFit founder and CEO Greg Glassman joined Justin on Episode 101 of CrossFit Radio, webcast live at 6 p.m. PDT on Wednesday, Jan. 6, 2010.
1:32 Coach Glassman started off by talking about the CrossFit 101 seminars he conducted over the course of the last year. He mentioned several affiliates where he stopped and established relationships with CrossFitters, and he talked about how those interactions have influenced him to really focus on finding ways to help affiliate owners be more successful. Coach went on to comment on the unique relationship between the online or virtual CrossFit community and the real-world side of the business that’s characterized by seminars, the Games, friendships and trainer-client relationships.
Coach believes intellectual rigor and observable, measurable, repeatable results are necessary in any real fitness program, and he explained how CrossFit will soon be the only fitness program that enjoys worldwide accreditation. The gem of the conversation came when Coach detailed how excellence begets excellence and translates into success for an affiliate owner. Always humble, Coach ended the show by thanking the CrossFit community.

On future episodes is there a way to balance the audio volume from your phone mic to your mic?
I always have to crank the volume to hear the guests and turn it down to hear you.

So what were the toughest questions asked and the most common? That was just danced around in the response.
Regarding the ANSI certification, I take it this is the American National Standards Institute certification correct? If so is this just an accreditation of the process of training people at the level I certs?

JJ - Really enjoyed the interview! I like the fact that Coach is talking about CF evolving and growing... exciting to think where we'll be in 20 years!
P.S When are you gonna get Chris Spealler on for an interview?
I'd love you to pick his brains - I think he'd have some amazing advice and tips for the community!
Many thanks for your hard work :-)
