If there’s anyone who isn’t afraid to share his opinion, it’s Dr. Sean Pastuch.
Sean is the owner of the world-renowned gym ActiveLifeRX, known for smart programming and getting people to continue to live the life they want pain free.
In this week’s episode, Sean joins Michael to discuss the recent changes to the CrossFit community. First, the changes came to Regionals. Then, CrossFit’s social media accounts went silent, leaving the question of what’s to come for the future of the sport and where the fitness industry is heading.
With so much up in the air, Sean and Michael share a message for gym owners to improve their gym, become more self-aware and why they need to start a mastermind group.
