In Athletes, CrossFit Games, Videos
December 22, 2010
Annie Thorisdottir, the second-place finisher at the 2010 CrossFit Games, has come back to the States, where cameras caught her working out and sharing training secrets at CrossFit New England.
“Every week, I’m getting stronger, and I can feel it,” Thorisdottir says. “I’m always seeing progress, which is good. I’m just waiting for the point where I’m going to get stuck.”
Since the Games, Thorisdottir has become an HQ trainer who teaches Level 1 certifications, and her bootcamp has become a CrossFit affiliate. As an athlete, she’s working on her own strength and technique with lifting. She films her movement so she and her coach can analyze it, find weaknesses and make corrections.
“Definitely just going through everything again and again makes me think about it more when I’m doing stuff,” she says. “I’m getting, definitely getting, better as an athlete, teaching it and seeing the faults,” Thorisdottir says.

Hey Zach, it's a list that Ben has been compiling for over a year, and one that he continues to add to.

Annie is such a huge motivation for me every time I train. She reminds me to never put limits on what you believe you're capable of. She and Kris are completely raising the standard for what women are capable of...and, we are all benefiting from that. Thanks for serving that role for us, girls!
