Hey, how's it going? I'm Jake Cumpfrey. This is High Performance, the podcast that reminds you that it's within your ambition, your purpose, your story are all there.

We just help unlock it by turning the lived experiences of the planet's highest performers into your life lessons.

And in this special collaboration episode with the wearable tech brand, Woop, we are about to speak to one of the greatest athletes on the planet.

Today, myself and Professor Damian Hughes, welcome CrossFit Legend, Matt Fraser.

The only time an experience is a waste is if you don't pay attention to it or you don't take notes on it and apply it towards a future.

So even even some of the jobs, relationships, sports experiences that I had that were terrible, they were just as valuable as the good ones.

If it were easy all the time, everyone would be super disciplined, but there's going to be days one after the other where you're like, I don't want to do this.

But it's like, nope, if I want the results in six months, if I want those cheers in front of 10,000 people, I need to suffer through these shitty moments.

And luckily, I was in a career where I didn't have to brag myself every day. I enjoyed showing up to work.

If I want the future that I want, if I want that gold medal around my neck, I need to work hard on days that I want to and on more importantly on the days that I don't want to.

Oh, I'm so excited to bring you this episode. Look, our brand, as you know, is about taking the learnings from one person's life and turning those into the lessons for your life.

And who better to take lessons from than a man who's been named the fittest person on earth five times. He won five CrossFit Games titles for a long period.

He was the man to beat in CrossFit and nobody could.

You're about to hear the mindset that got in there. And I think it's actually great that we're speaking to Matt at the end of the year so that you can take these lessons into 2023.

Before we get going, I just want to shout out our great friends at Woop right now. It's been a total game changer for me as a 44-year-old who dreams of being an elite athlete who wakes up every day with sore knees and a stiff back.

Woop has helped me to be the healthiest version of myself I can be.

It's a wearable health and fitness coach that will help you sleep better, train smarter and recover faster in 2023.

It constantly measures things like your resting heart rate, your heart rate variability, your activity levels and your sleep performance to provide you with personalized recommendations and feedback.

It's the go-to for elite people. And if you're interested in funding out more or signing up, you can go to join.woop.com forward slash HPP for a 20% discount on Woop membership.
