I love Crossfit and I am not being biased or anything, but watching the elite women in Crossfit is so much more intriguing than the men and they have such lovely personalities.
Plus the women’s competition tends to be much more intense and close than the men’s. Nothing against the men’s Games, but the women are always battling for the next spot in a close race.
Scientifically it's because there's no testosterone. In every field boys are more brash then women, it's the competitive drive. I do martial arts and you find the guys always go at each other hardcore. Women there are strong too, but there's more care and technical fighting put in. Not just butting heads. There are noble guys too, but more often than not it's pure hormone difference.
Vids on their eating and recovery programmes would be awesome. We can clearly see how much work goes into the training but learning how they fuel and recover on such extreme routines would be great.
@jon arthur thanks for apologising, totally okay! I’m not gonna fail my degree(thanks for that tho), I’m still learning and am only an aspiring CrossFit athlete, I am sure you are far better than me in certain elements. I don’t believe all high level athletes are natty, ofc that’s impossible but I do strongly believe that CrossFit has one of the most strict drugs testing protocol for elite athletes (eg Ricky Garard) I can’t speak for backgrounds I don’t have any experience in but I will make sure to educate myself upon matters I don’t understand, as I’m sure you will too! I believe that a huge amount of work goes in to becoming an elite athlete and those who use PEDS in a competitive environment/sport discredit all the hard work natty athletes put in. I was simply saying that I believe wholeheartedly Sara is fully natty and that years of work has gone into excelling at her chosen sport and that she is a real athlete who puts in the hours. I hope that you have a good CrossFit career and I know that I myself with stay natty and get fitter with grind and hard work as I’m sure you will too and I will continue to educate myself on these kinds of subjects that I “don’t know anything about” have a good one😁🖖
I feel like Katrin is a bit more...humble? I don’t know if that’s the right word but she seems more down to earth than in previous years. Annie is awesome & Sara is such a sweetheart, I truly hope 2018 is her year to win!!
Sara is such a Lone Wolf, If she wins she might just explode... she's been so close so often plus coming off an injury this year... that would be amazing. I'd love to see that.
It was such a heartbreaking moment when she fell off the peg board, hit herself in the head, and then she was on the bike trying to make up time as first place slipped away from her. I hope 2018 is her year!
I love watching these 3 train, you can see the passion and emotion. The absolute love for what they do day in and day out. You can literally see that they rather do nothing else. It’s nice to see people who love what they do
I love the Dottirs!! But the best part of this video is how Heber, Maria, and Marston are killin the Vlog/doc game right now!! True artistry.....been an Ence vlog fan for a minute.....you guys are constantly improving. Your drone footage is top shelf and Marston....your editing is on point my friend.
true.. heck we could still even see Ence,Briggs or Even Camille maybe even a new name surprise us. But one thing I've noticed with the women as opposed to the men, is the point margins... the women's are much tighter. There were only 80 pts difference between Katrin(5th place) and Tia(1st) contrast with over 200 pts difference between Fraser(1st place) and Fikowski(2nd)...this makes the possibility of a womens Icelandic sweep plausible even with Tia/Kara having good event wins.
Unlike most things in Crossfit these days. Maybe its time to start a fitness trend that can be done in your garage, with minimal equipment and cost, with friends, is about community and staying active, I think Ill call it squarefit.
hats off to Annie... surprisingly I was thinking the same. she's probably the first to prove "everyone" wrong.. all these og's not keeping up with the upcoming athletes, but she put in the damn work. well deserved!
I started Crossfit because of Annie and I’m going to keep doing it because I want to get a chance to podium at the games even if I podium thirty years from now.
Sigmundsdottir is so strong, funny, an funky with her language- my idol amongst all the crossfit women- she is just amazing - all three are great but Sara does it for me- training, inspiration, motivation and something to live for- a real fit, down to earth Supreme Leader of Valkyries. I would say Amazonian but they are mainly purely strength, Valkyries are versatile or have more areas as I see it that are strong in.
Tempo squats are used to increase stability and to improve the way an athlete handles heavy weights on his/her back. Air squats with bends are a totally different movement.
Sooo awesome!!!!! Extended part with Annie and the tourist from The new movie!!! I love these behind the scenes videos. It's awesome to see what and how thses athletes/regular people live!!!!
CrossFit should make an entire documentary on these three women!
YES!!!
Sara Sigmundsdottir: Perseverance

Afitterhealthieryou01 Agreed

Agreed
Im a guy, and i prefer watching sweaty women than sweaty men 👍🏻😆

Jay King You saw their breakfast though
Agreed
Its all the same; veg, protein and carbs and then divide it into whos vegan, plant based and meat eating. That stuff sends me asleep
It's really impressive that Sara got fourth place without having a coach! She'll be amazing this year with a coach
Emilija Angelovska she also doesn’t have an athletic background. The other girls are gymnasts etc.... Sara started in her late teens. She’s a champ ❤️

Am I the only one that REALLY wants Sara to win it this year?
Oh, I would love that. I like all these girls, but Sara, she has something special. She is so charming, gosh. I’m rooting for her 👏🏻
No you're not
me too
You are absolutely not the only one.
I love the 3 of them 🧡 but yeah, i want Sara to win too!
The editors for all these videos are incredible
Team Sigmundsdottir all the way! 💪🏼🤘🏼
It’s that time of year 🤩🔥🔥
these 3 ladies don't quit either mate :)
GO TEAM
HSTL!
Livin' the dream
Strongest team on youtube
2:45 I love how Annie is always introduced making her breakfast😂😂
And then what she says after proves my point right away😂
I feel like Katrin is a bit more...humble? I don’t know if that’s the right word but she seems more down to earth than in previous years. Annie is awesome & Sara is such a sweetheart, I truly hope 2018 is her year to win!!

Have really been looking forward to this series starting again. Thanks CrossFit!
hoping for SARA to finally get her chance.
I love watching these 3 train, you can see the passion and emotion. The absolute love for what they do day in and day out. You can literally see that they rather do nothing else. It’s nice to see people
who love what they do
Incredible work guys! The editing and the story telling was just phenomenal. These are some truly incredible women and I am so so inspired.
Love all these three ladies but Sara has a special place in my heart ❤️
Gotta love Sara so much 😍
Spikey12311 I'm in love with her. Hopefully '18 is her year!
Me too! 😍
Sara is freaking gorgeous haha
Its Annie, Katrin then Sara in my rankings
Zak Rotandre Yeah she is.
Sara is so good looking.
"I had a goal to get a boyfriend because I was so bored" :)

True artistry.....been an Ence vlog fan for a minute.....you guys are constantly improving. Your drone footage is top shelf and Marston....your editing is on point my friend.
oooooomg the time is here!!!!!!! god i loved this series last year. SO STOKED !!!
A smile on my face the whole time. These ladies are the most badass, sweetest people with absolutely lovely energy.
Rooting on Sara but don't forget Brooke Ence is back this year also looking READY!
one of these years its gonna be 1,2 and 3 all dottirs.
As much as we'd all like to see that, Tia and Kara ain't going quietly or politely. In 2017 Kara figured it out. She knows she can win the Games.
true.. heck we could still even see Ence,Briggs or Even Camille maybe even a new name surprise us. But one thing I've noticed with the women as opposed to the men, is the point margins... the women's are much tighter.

ence, clb and briggs will not podium, its between these 5 and a new name
nah
I don't think so. Competition is being harder every year.
Nordic Goddesses! I don't think i've ever clicked on a video so fast.
Talk about click bait that delivered for once
OMOMGOMGOMGOMG I litteraly freaked out when this came out. I have never clicked so fast.
Frederick: for the love of God, put a ring on it! 😂
Jenny Mason when was this?
This is clearly before the Buttery Bros went on “The Juice” 😂 😂
I don't do crossfit, but I love watching these videos.
I swear I've watched this 20 times already!
The dedication they have and the things they do is so inspiring. I have fallen in love with this sport
It's amazing that English isn't their first language and they sound like they were born in the US
on my trip to iceland everyone spoke perfect english
Sara actually spoke quite bad English, but she has improved after moving to the us
I feel English is a cake walk compared to Icelandic :)
kökulabb :)
Here in kenya even pple who have never been to school can speak basic english. Its not rocket science
I am with sara 100%! this is her year!
YES!!! and the best part it's FREE!!!!
Unlike most things in Crossfit these days. Maybe its time to start a fitness trend that can be done in your garage, with minimal equipment and cost, with friends, is about community and staying active, I think Ill call it squarefit.
As far as I am aware, Road to The Games were always free. Complaining is kind of silly, don't you think?
I think you're onto something! somewhere along they way CF turned into all about $$ sadly
David McKercher Companies call that circlejerk.
Yeah, that $5 a month for journal content was really breaking the bank, I'm sure.
just watched the first 8 seconds am I'm already fired up to watch this
Feels like an early Xmas present. 😍😍😍 I hope there's a part 2.
Ylana Gracielli They’ve done these in the past with different athletes leading up to Regionals. I’m hoping for more too! ☺️
OMG!!!! COULDNT WAIT ANY LONGER!!! THANK GOD!!! FASTEST 30 MIN OF MY LIFE!!!!
Three QUEENS!!
Its so amazing watching these athletes train. I wish there had been something like this around when I was younger. It looks so fun!
I love these videos so so so much. I love seeing the athletes having fun. :)
You did me such a huge favour by releasing this, I was yearning for a video focusing on these 3 Incredibles! I love you Crossfit; you produce magic!
Lol love everytime Sara says something "is life" 😂😂
I love Sara! It's her time to be the fittest on Earth! I believe in you!!!!!
♥️
I find all these videos, so motivating. Thanks Crossfit!!
I love these road to the games! great first episode!
Do you have to be blonde to do crossfit ?
and your last name be dottir?
Yes finally THANK you for this upload im rooting for you Sara time for YOU to Shine baby! 👍
Love the video, competition and comradery between the Dottirs.
I love the Three Dottir's 💕 Nordic Goddesses is the truth. I look up to all three of them
I love hearing them talk in their native Icelandic language. So beautiful!
So glad this is back
That conclusion/outro got me pumped af. Amazing job as always media team.
Marston, you are awesome! Great video. You rock.
Thank you cross fit been waiting for this all spring

one of those videos that you just like before you even watch!
nICE vid! Thanks guys, keep the good stuff coming!
great video love being able to come on and check up on the athletes keeps me motivated thank you for who ever does all the hard work!
I think a video of "a day in the life" of each of these ladys would be owesome!!!
hats off to Annie... surprisingly I was thinking the same.
she's probably the first to prove "everyone" wrong.. all these og's not keeping up with the upcoming athletes, but she put in the damn work. well deserved!
really needed this... thank you
Thor, Sigmund, and David must still be proud when they look down on earth from Valhalla, these women are immaculate
These girls are young, I’m sure their parents are still alive :)
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday... CANDYDAY!!!
I love these series!
I don't do crossfit, but MY ALL MY, I have HUGE respects for these girls!
Very Well Done!! You all capture the best & most interesting! 👏🏼👏🏼
They all lost weight.. Does it mean theyre bulking in offseason? Great vid guys! True Inspiration!
The women look in incredible good shape. I love their looks beside the fun and beauty of the sport 💪
theyve all grown so much internally and externally. and so beautiful too.
This is better than the new doccie... way better... thank you!
😧 already?! I was not expecting this!!
Amazing athletes, those girls are so inspiring, love them.
Killed it once again Crossfit! Great content
Finally another one of these!
I started Crossfit because of Annie and I’m going to keep doing it because I want to get a chance to podium at the games even if I podium thirty years from now.
if there is anyone more cute than Sara i dont know! Her sense of humour is just contagious !!!!
Sigmundsdottir is so strong, funny, an funky with her language- my idol amongst all the crossfit women- she is just amazing - all three are great but Sara does it for me- training, inspiration, motivation and something to live for- a real fit, down to earth Supreme Leader of Valkyries. I would say Amazonian but they are mainly purely strength, Valkyries are versatile or have more areas as I see it that are strong in.
Amazons! Sara with dark hair just gorgeous... hope she’s recovering fast.
i like sara im really rooting for her. she does have a great marketing team behind her
this girl makes you smile.

NinjaMaoChow do you know the name of the sound track?
NinjaMaoChow do you know the name of the sound track?

I love that kind of videos.
There must be something special in that Icelandic water.... so cool!

I think I'm gonna visit Iceland sometimes.

Un mes llevo practicando y fue amor primera vista algún Día voy a competir y ganare
You can't help but smile with Sara!
Anybody know the music in the intro? CrossFit videos always have the most unique music choices.
liked it before i even watched it!
Piece of music that starts at 28:50 and plays right to the end of the video. Anyone know what it is?
