#47 Training Tips for Shift-Workers and How to Approach Weaknesses with Jake Law
Jake is a competitive Crossfit athlete/gym owner from Singleton NSW, about an hour west of Newcastle. He has competed at the regional level in Crossfit including The Down Under Crossfit Championship and The Torian Pro a number of times. He has also represented Australia at the International Functional Fitness Federations National Championships, which TBH I dont know too much about. Apparently they are trying to get Functional Fitness into the Olympics, and to do that theres all these requirements you need to meet in order to be a proper sport allowed in to the olympics.
