I might have to switch to training in my garage in the near future. I already own some equipment, but I am interested in the other opinions what the most effective use of a small space is and what equipment is absolutely necessary, multiple use, effective and or just plain fun to own.

Here's the list of things I already own in order of importance to me:

• barbell + weights
• jump rope
• airbike
• sandbag
• wall ball
• adjustable kettlebell
• dumbbells (hex 15kg, 22.5kg, but I'd upgrade to an adjustable one)
• resistance bands
• torque tank m1 (a quiet magnetic resistance sled, so you don't annoy neighbors)
• box (for box jumps, squats, other accessory)

I also consider buying:

• rower
• drop pads
• some type of squat rack with a pull up bar

What do you use most often or consider essential in any other way in a garage gym?

CrossFit HQ’s General Manager of Sport Justin Bergh will be leaving the company and Dave Castro will step in as Leader of Sport Team. The major shake up comes only six weeks out from the 2023 NOBULL CrossFit Games—the pinnacle event of the sport.

Here's the start of the article:

To the CrossFit Community,

I’ve thought a lot about what it would feel like to write this letter. The words have come easier than I imagined. This is from my heart.

After a decade and a half of dedicating my life to this craft, I have decided that 2023 will be my last year coaching at the CrossFit Games.

This sport has brought more purpose, fulfillment and passion to my life than I ever thought possible. There have been hard-earned wins and heartbreaking losses, times of confidence and times of complete uncertainty. I believe the CrossFit Games is one of the best sporting events in the world, supported by the best community in the world, and I am filled with gratitude that most of my adult life has been spent preparing athletes to compete in it.

...

With a heavy heart, i’d like to share that I won’t be competing at Semifinals this weekend.

Sometimes, we face personal challenges that demand our attention and care. It's important to prioritize our well-being and embrace the support of loved ones.

While I won't be competing, I'm grateful for the u nderstanding and encouragement from my coach @mathewfras & my @hwpotraining team, friends, family, and fans. Their unconditional support means the world to me.

Remember, life isn't just about winning trophies or achieving goals—it's about finding balance, taking care of ourselves, and cherishing the moments that truly matter.

I'll be taking this time to focus on what's important to me, and I appreciate your understanding during this period. I wish the best of luck to my teammates & competitors 🤍
