CrossFit athlete association demands assurances of safety and change

50% Facts with Silent Mike & Jim McD

Understandably, the fallout from the death of CrossFit Games athlete Lazar Đukić is far from over. We discuss some posts and articles about the private meetings held at the Games concerning whether to continue and the demands made by the Professional Fitness Athletes Association in the days after the Games.
Is there a difference between fault and responsibility? Should athletes be more proactive in understanding the risks? Is the element of “surprise” in CrossFit events an essential part of the competition, or does it bring too much risk into the equation?
We also get into a little retrospective of John Cena’s career.
