- “We didn’t come this far just to come this far. Four years of CrossFit Games competition with many more to go. Excited to be in Boulder with @crossfit leadership this week to see if I can help these folks make this great thing even better going forward.
“My motivation to persevere has always been a function of wanting to make good on the time and energy various people have poured into me over my life. The coaches, mentors, and friends who invested time in me believed I was capable of one day doing great things, so even when I feel like I'm not capable of giving them the return on investment they deserve, I can always call upon that sense of expectations to dig a little deeper. Knowing that I have the eyes of Soldiers on me as a member of the U.S. Army Warrior Fitness team has only deepened my commitment to remembering my responsibility to properly represent for any group I'm a part of when I'm competing or training.”
-Chandler Smith, two-time CrossFit Games qualifier, 15th at the 2019 Games and 22nd worldwide in the 2020 CrossFit Open

Chandler Smith is one of the most respectful and humble athletes CrossFit has. I’m so glad he is a representative my son can look up to.
Same here
Not to mention handsome as f!
The dislikes are his Soldier's that fell out while doing PT with him.
I’m always in awe of the athleticism of these people!!!
Ánimos Chandler!!! Form Valencia CF 💪💪💪
My new HYPE video before workouts! 🔥😂 You gotta love Chandler
Even got part of his finger chopped off in a military accident but doesn't let it hold him back. Beast!
Outstanding. Your a inspiration to many. Keep the content coming.
Same. I love when the CrossFit Games publishes these kinds of videos
Jee JAA-eee chiiiiiiiii, is the soundtrack to this guys life!
lol right 😂

He is so bloody strong, if he fixed his weightlifting technique he would be the best weightlifter in CrossFit, then he would have a shot at podium I bet
totally. the guy is so freakin' strong
He will probably make adjustments, but he won’t lift like Fraser unless he worked on it everyday at the detriment of everything else.
Brendan Tomlinson
Dude his Olympic lifting is so trash. If he had an Olympic lifting coach every time he lifted, once or twice a week, his technique would improves sinfodicantly in just a couple months. He has very bad technique at the moment
Fitness at its best in the 🏟
yep 🔥
Amazing
BEAST MODE! He's in the military? He must be the TANK💪
1:05 haha those 3 blokes going too high on the sled
50% of the Margarine Men

Russ Watkin thanks bro
1:08 what happened
They started pushing with their hands too far up so it made the sled tip forward.

A marine... No wonder he is very tough.
Finally, CrossFit was so white
Hes not even top 10, woke world needs to chill out
Shameful crossfit promo of a black athlete for the first time ever after the racially insensitive comments of the previous head. Coincidence?
Shameful you're trying to create more problems about comments that were at worst ambiguous. Move on.
I see it as the opposite 🙌🏾 Now is as good a time as ever to celebrate the diversity and an athlete who has been an integral part of the games in recent years. Thank you CrossFit, HQ changes are already setting the standard 👏🏾
Celebrate whatever you wish but to mention "racially insensitive comments" when race was never originally mentioned is unnecessarily provocative and antagonistic.
@@martinfoster9848 I'm agreeing with you 😳
@Richard de Villiers definitely one of the most popular athletes and followed 🐸☕ 50% of the MM too, big personality for the sport 😉
