    CrossFit Games Most EPIC Lifts

    The 18th edition of the Crossfit Games - seeking to find the fittest man, woman and team on earth - is mere days away. With event 8 announced as an elimination clean ladder we can expect to be wowed once again by some epic lifts - so what better way to whet our collective appetites than to consider some of the most epic lifts in CrossFit games history. These are not the heaviest, nor are they a top 10 - these are simply occasions when the lifting got my heart racing the most. Perhaps you're new to Crossfit and these will be new to you - or perhaps you’re a veteran of Games spectating and this is a chance to get all nostalgic before the unknown of Fort Worth is thrust upon us. Got any more? Agree? Disagree?!? Smash the comments section - peace
