CrossFit, Inc. appears to be taking a major step away from being an events company.
The product that CrossFit, Inc. is offering athletes in 2025 is poor. And leaves a big opportunity for other events companies to provide better experiences. Hyrox is just one of them.
Here’s what I’m telling my clients who are competitive fitness athletes – look for other experiences outside of the CrossFit, Inc. season.
I understand the title of Fittest on Earth and CrossFit Games and “Semifinals” etc. have clout in the minds of many – but it may not be like that for much longer.
Here’s the check I would do if you’re an athlete – does competing in an online “semifinal” really mean anything? To you? To the community? Is it as good of an experience as a Hyrox event? Or a big in person competition?
Online competitions are objectively worse than in person comps for everyone except the company running them.
I will admit that there’s still plenty of nostalgia and aura around the CrossFit, Inc. season. And that’s still something – if you want to do it – go for it.
Just be aware that the resources are shifting, the professional athletes will probably shift with the resources, and the clout will shift with pro athletes.
Here’s what a great sport could look like.

  1. INTENTION - athletes are honored not degraded
  2. All events are in person
  3. Standardization
    • number of events, order of events, purpose of each event
    • movement selection
    • checks and balances
