Coaching and Leading as an Adaptive Athlete (Feat. Christina Mazzullo)

Mat Hotho sits down with Christina Mazzullo. Christina is a CrossFit Games adaptive champion, affiliate owner of CrossFit Tar Heel in North Carolina, and newly minted Registered Dietitian . Tina is an upper extremity adaptive athlete who was born missing her left thumb and partial finger joints, and she's turned that into a masterclass in figuring out the how. From climbing a rope mid-class while teaching others she never thought she could, to rebuilding her grip from scratch when Festivus Games told her she couldn't compete RX with a strap. She and Mat dig into her path from intimidated outsider at a CrossFit gym in Oahu to two-time Games champion, the wellness center model she's built at her affiliate, and the mindset shift that's driven all of it: moving from "I can't" to "how can I?"Send us Fan MailFollow the podcast on Instagram: @TheAdaptiveAthletePod
