Zack George - Author, BFG and Fittest Man in the UK

  • Summary

  • Zack George is the Fittest Man in the UK - and one of the nicest guys in CrossFit.


    In 2020, he was heading to compete in the 2020 CrossFit Games - only for the COVID-19 pandemic to shatter his dreams.


    In 2021, injury has curtailed his hopes of clinching another ticket to the Games, yet he's stayed positive.


    In this episode we talked about the mindset which has shaped his life as an athlete and businessman.


    He reflected on his transition from an overweight kid to fierce competitor on the global stage


    Zack addressed the pride and responsibility he felt demanding change from CrossFit as the organisation was engulfed in a storm of racism as the sport was accused of caring little for its diverse community. He spoke about the direction under new CEO Eric Roza and his excitement for the future.


    As his new book - Start Where Others Stop - hits the shelves next week, it's clear Zack George is the real deal who has even bigger things heading his way over the next few years.
