Iron Crew Podcast


Jul 31, 2019

Greg Amundson is a motivational speaker, author, mentor, and THE original CrossFit fire breather.  Greg and Danny talk about the importance of following your passion, how physical training positively affects other aspects of your life, and what it was like in the early days of CrossFit.  Greg also goes into how having a positive mantra will help you get through some of the most difficult times of your life.  Get ready to be inspired by this episode!

Before their conversation, Danny discusses how to adjust your training after an intense workout, why you’re more likely to perform better during impromptu exercise, and where the burpee originated.  Danny also talks about how spending time alone and in silence can help you have a deeper understanding of why you’re feeling a certain way.  Finally, a listener question is answered:  Where did the name Tabata come from?  

Here is where you can find each segment in case you want to skip around.  Enjoy!
