CrossFit Games Adaptive Division Updates — With Kevin Ogar Oct 15, 2023

Show notes

In 2020, the CrossFit Games team announced that they would be introducing an adaptive division to the CrossFit Games season. Since then it has yet to catch more flak than traction centering around the implementation, available divisions and standards, and lack of in person representation at The CrossFit Games.
Fast forward to 2023, the CrossFit Games have just announced the brand new format for adaptive athletes. New Director of the Adaptive Division and former CrossFit Games Champion Kevin Ogar joins the show. We talk about what went into the decision to make this change and what we can look forward to next year's CrossFit Games season.

This year the Games will welcome and provide additional access to the competition and beyond to independent third-party creators: Craig Richey, The Buttery Bros, and Sevan Matossian. For years CrossFit produced a “Behind the Scenes” series giving fans a peek behind the curtain and into the lives of the athletes who compete on the big stage under the bright lights. From 2011 to 2017, Matossian was the man behind the camera — with the vision of covering the sport from a different angle. In this episode, Chase Ingraham sits down with him to catch up on his plans for this year's series. #CrossFitGames
