“Get to know Jeff and all about his routine for his first participation this competition.

Here’s what Jeff had to say about his progress and his performances at the opens, which are going on right now …

“Beyond all expectations, I am extremely surprised and proud of my performance so far: I am in the world top 10 after 3 weeks, 1st in Canada. It remains however still 2 weeks. I will not sell the skin of the bear until I kill it. So I stay focused until the end. I’m already getting ready for the last two WODs. I focus on what is in my control: training, recovery, nutrition, etc. I hope to reach my first goal of the season, that is to say re-qualifier for CrossFit Games.”
