Todd Nief's ShowJohn Wooley (Make WODs Great Again) on the essentialness of CrossFit gymsI recently wrote a controversial oped for the Morning Chalk Up on why my CrossFit gym isn't an essential business.

The BoxJumper Podcast - CrossFit, Functional Fitness & Healthy Living DiscussionsWith CrossFit, Meme’s the Word - with John Wooley, Make WODs Great AgainMake WODs Great Again began as a passion project of John Wooley’s and turned into a phenomenon, with his CrossFit themed memes making the rounds on social media at a breakneck pace. That passion has grown to almost a quarter of a million followers, the launch of the podcast Make PODs Great Again with his Co-host Niki Brazier, photos and autographs at Sanctional events and more.
