With CrossFit it's all too easy to let the clock, the high achieving atmosphere and the loud environment feed right into your anxieties. We discuss how to have the right approach to CrossFit so that it supports your mental health and helps you become a more resilient person. We also talk about how to recognise warning signs and some actions steps for anyone dealing with potential mental illness.
