Icelandic Open Standouts Join the Show: Training, Weaknesses, and French Throwdown Plans

The hosts go live for a special Thursday episode featuring two young Icelandic CrossFit athletes who drew attention by finishing first and second in Open Week 1, discuss how to pronounce their Icelandic names, and review their overall Open results (29th and 79th). They talk about how the rest of the Open and Quarterfinals went, identifying gymnastics capacity—especially muscle-ups—as a key weakness, while noting a preference for heavy barbells that didn’t appear in this year’s tests. The conversation includes a past DM about coaching, training history and ages, work and school (including physical therapy studies), and Icelandic culture topics like training with BK and eating dried fish. They outline upcoming competition plans to attend the French Throwdown individually and pursue a team Games path, including early worm training experiences, before closing with jokes and banter.
