“It’s really easy to stand back and tell your kids what to do, but showing them is a different story.”
Affiliate owner of CrossFit Tsavo and 2021 Games athlete (Women 35-39) Michelle Palmer joins host Adrian Conway on the podcast to share her experience as a competitive athlete, coach, parent, and role model for others.
Palmer wears many hats. She is a wife, mother of three, a two-time Semifinals athlete, a business owner, coach, and a CrossFit competitor — and she’s no stranger to training and competition.
Palmer grew up dancing competitively and later participated in a physique competition. She found CrossFit right before getting pregnant with her third child and once she started, knew she wanted to one day compete at the Games.
In this episode, Palmer shares how her training as a dancer and value in hard work transferred to CrossFit. She also opens up about shifting her mindset about her physique to a performance-based focus, highlighting the importance of fueling your body properly as an athlete, and the struggles with body image that can arise.
Palmer shares her story of becoming an affiliate owner, diving into her role as a leader and coach in the space, and expresses her vision of empowering people of all ages.
Learn more about Palmer’s and Conway’s relationship as athlete and coach, how she balances her personal and professional life, and her experience as a Games athlete.
