Summary

Do you own your biology or not? Crossfit Masters Champion, Amanda Allen, certainly does, but it took her a while to get there. On this episode of Bulletproof Radio Amanda talks about her 40-year journey to becoming a mega-athlete and finding her flow state in human performance. Allen talks candidly about her struggles to harness her addictive personality into something positive and what it takes to be a successful female athlete of all types including: her diet regimen, the menstruation effect, and why she has four coaches. Amanda is a true Bulletproof badass. Take a listen! Amanda Allen is the 2013 Crossfit Games Masters Champion (40-44) and an all around mega-athlete. She found Crossfit when trying to make Worlds in canoeing and after someone told her it would help supplement her abs workout! Before kicking ass at Crossfit, Amanda was a professional Triathlete and Track Cyclist with state, national and world titles in both and even tried her hand at firefighting. She is a Personal Trainer and Lifestyle Coach in Adelaide, Australia, and her dog’s name is Pep.
