090 - Stinky People | Tackling hard things | Fun Stuff ahead in 2026! [BRIO in the Box Podcast ep 090]
Sun Dec 14 2025
Winter is upon us and the big overhead doors are closed for the season. Training as a team in close quarters indoors has led to an uncomfortable problem: stinky people in the gym. In this episode, we dive into the hilariously awkward reality of addressing the fact that some of y'all need to wear deodorant, shower more often, wash your knees sleeves, and invest in some new gym clothes.
This leads to a broader conversation about the importance of self-awareness and the value of having hard conversations. Doing hard things and a culture of feedback is what we're all about in CrossFit.
We've got lots of fun things lined up for 2026! Including a sweet Yeti Rambler for all our annual members and a series of challenges throughout the year to keep you tuned in to showing up and trying to level up your fitness (and it doesn't even require wearing a sash!)
00:21 Addressing the Smelly Situation
10:21 The Value of Hard Conversations
22:49 Maintaining Range of Motion
24:43 Dealing with Mortality
27:21 Planning for 2026
43:36 Year-End Reflections and Goals
