Description
THE INTRO is here to introduce you to a new point of view about the worlds of fitness, nutrition, and performance from three coaches who know it best – and they’re not holding back. Matt DellaValle (aka MDV) is Chief Fitness Officer at NCFIT, a leading CrossFit affiliate in NorCal, USA. He's your host of THE INTRO, a CrossFit Seminar Staff veteran, and a lawyer in another life. James Hobart is a CrossFit Games legend, CrossFit Seminar Staff flowmaster, and widely regarded as one of the best CrossFit coaches and athletes to ever do it. Max Isaak is the owner of five CrossFit TILT locations across Boston, a highly sought-after fitness consultant, and one of the most charismatic coaches to ever take the floor. So, grab a notebook, grab a chair, and let's learn a thing or two about fitness, nutrition, and performance from these pros. New episodes of THE INTRO launch every Tuesday on Apple Podcasts & Spotify.
