"Today's winners have reached the pinnacle of athletic
achievement in fitness, and they demonstrate how CrossFit can

The CrossFit Games are a grueling multi-day, multi-event
competition where elite athletes from around the world compete in
the ultimate test of fitness. The events included a wide array of
high-intensity, functional movements which test the realms of
endurance, strength, bodyweight capacity, skill, mixed capacity,
and power. Over the course of the three-day competition, athletes
were required to compete in events that incorporated a combination
of movements and exercises that serve as a measurable test of their
fitness, athleticism, and determination.
The NOBULL CrossFit Games will continue through the weekend
featuring individual and team competitions culminating by crowning
this year's Fittest on Earth during a live, two-hour
broadcast of the individual finals on the CBS Television Network on
Sunday, Aug. 1 from 2 - 4 p.m. ET.
