Each year since 2007, the leanest, strongest, fastest people on the planet gather to lift barbells and swing kettlebells for the title of Fittest on Earth®. Since the first Games, the competition has grown to include four divisions — Age Group, Adaptive, Teams, and Individuals. The athletes in each represent the best of their class, and the 2023 NOBULL CrossFit Games are no different.
