Life as a CrossFit Games Athlete with Emily De Rooy

In this episode, I sit down with one of my good friends — and a seriously impressive human — Emily De Rooy. We’ve known each other since our early days of CrossFit, and now, years later, Em is a 3-time CrossFit Games athlete, officially ranked among the top 30 fittest women on the planet.
This chat is a laid-back but honest look into the life of a professional athlete. Emily shares what it really takes to compete at the elite level — from how many hours she trains, to how much she eats, and the importance of approaching everything with intent.
We also dive into the people in her corner, the struggles she faces, and what the future might look like for her in the sport. It’s equal parts inspiring and down-to-earth.
Whether you're deep into CrossFit, curious about the athlete lifestyle, or just love a good chat between friends, this one’s for you.
