This week on Unprepared we talk to 3x CrossFit Games athlete and current 2nd fittest 45-49 year old Justin Lasala.

After about a month of quarantine, most of us have been relegated to working from home or just... at home. With the loss of a routine comes an amplified effect of the little things we've taken for granted: having a dedicated workspace that isn't your home, a commute of some sort that requires exposure to the outdoors, and some non-exercise movement, and general inactivity to name a few. Today's episode is about thinking about ways to break out of the quarantine funk to try and restore some norma...

Today’s episode is very much about getting back to basics and using this great weather to entice some extremely healthy situations. Summer gives us an opportunity to clear out the distractions and spend some meaningful time outside with the people we enjoy. It can be a real battle to avoid the technology that pulls us away from each other in the colder months, but there’s nothing better than taking your meals out to a deck or picnic table to remember why we chose to surround ourselves with these...

While we're usually big proponents of social interaction with your tribe, getting outside as often as you can for both sunlight and movement, etc., COVID-19 has thrown a bit of a monkey wrench into that protocol.
