Noah Ohlsen: Training for a Fractured Competition Season

Noah Ohlsen has been one of the most consistent CrossFit athletes in the field since he made his Games debut in 2014. Across six Games appearances, he has finished inside the top eight five times, taking second last year.

Here, he and Sean Woodland talk about the bold prediction he once made to Dave Castro, his memorable first career Games event win in Mary last year, and how he has changed as an athlete and a person since his rookie season six years ago.
