Meet John Wooley—the creative force behind the wildly popular Instagram meme page once known as Make WODs Great Again, now rebranded as Wooley Memeth. He’s also the mind behind multiple podcasts, including Kettlebells & Cocktails and Not For Time with Sean Woodland.

Recently, John launched his “Mini-Pods,” where he riffs on all things CrossFit, HYROX, and the broader fitness world with his signature blend of humor and insight.

Now 55, John reflects on 15 years in CrossFit—from affiliate ownership and earning his CF-L1 to interviewing Greg Glassman, becoming Insta-famous, and diving headfirst into HYROX. We talk about longevity, reinvention, and what it means to stay passionate and competitive while navigating the realities of aging.
