Harlem is no stranger to competition. He went to the Mount Team Comp a few years back where his team did really well throughout the weekend. Harlem personally is fired up about returning to the team comp stage to get revenge on the pull up rig. Ask him about it;).
Harlem had a back issue earlier this year but did all his rehab everyday and he is back into training now. Even though he is feeling good and want to do more work during classes he has been listening to the coaches and stuck to light weights focussing on technique and stuck to the rehab work which is now into a more preventative phase (prehab) to make sure he doesn’t have a back issue again. Harlem is one of the members who spends most time at the gym but not only to work out. He has been an absolute incredible friend of mine for a long time and as soon as I started this gym adventure he has been helping out with most things.
You don’t want to miss out on having a person like that in your team. A guy who is prepared to go above and beyond to see you succeed and the team succeed. I am looking forward to seeing him back where he belong on the CrossFit floor throwing down. He will be the heart of the team
Coming from a rowing background of course you want an erg event at the comp and he will do well in that for sure. For a big guy he has great mobility so any high skill lifting will suit Harlem just fine.
