In this episode the Crew dials the voicemail to answer a question from a loyal Power Athlete Radio listener:

Hey guys, this is Andrew from Iowa been an avid follower of power athlete for many years now first time calling into the hotline and given the recent weather experience in Texas and all over the Midwest. I was spending some time shoveling spending many hours shoveling recently, and I was wondering what would household labor like shoveling or not doing any type of work similar be considered. Would this be more trunk work? We might see at the beginning or end of a workout or would this be more fieldwork? We might see in one of the flagship programs like feel strong. Just kind of want your two cents on this. Thanks a lot, bye-bye.

We were never weight room strong, we were Field Strong

Snow hit the country hard a few weeks back forcing folks to bust out the shovel for a home “workout” clearing driveways and torching their low back!

John and Tex spin a hotline question into an athleticism lecture breaking down the components of field work and how to integrate into your training to be ready-ready for the next Snow-pocalypse. What an extraordinary conversation using CrossFit’s old school action of Virtual Shoveling to share the origin story of Field Strong and unlocking athletic potential. This episode is awkward, grip intensive, and challenge to listen to, but reminds us all piling up your snow into a phallus sculpture is still funny.
