Sam Rhee sits down with Detective Collin Outerbridge @couter10 to talk about how a self-proclaimed CrossFit skeptic becomes a consistent athlete and why that steady approach carries over into police work and community service. We get into small-goal progress, smart training habits, and the mindset that makes big life pivots feel possible.

• getting pulled into CrossFit through family and the gym culture
• building an athletic base
• improving in CrossFit through consistency, coachability, and small goals
• choosing law enforcement without a family blueprint
• what it takes to become a detective
• a river dog rescue that turns into a memorable lesson
• staying in CrossFit long term

Sam Rhee sits down with Kim Clarkston @kjkc52 to talk about how CrossFit helps her rebuild confidence after a life upheaval and why the right gym culture can make training feel safe again. We connect coaching, parenting, nutrition, and inclusive education into one idea: strong communities are designed on purpose.

• Kim’s origin story with CrossFit after leaving a marriage as a young mom
• Choosing a gym based on coaching quality, safety, and community support
• Reframing strength for women who grew up being taught to stay small
• Raising three athletic kids with a focus on mindset, sleep, mobility, and joy
• What inclusive education teaches us about coaching, cues, and belonging
• Using structure like lanes and “chunking” to reduce anxiety and boost success
• Gardening, backyard chickens, and living values at home
• Buddhism as a practical philosophy of acceptance and shared space
• Future goals around fitness, trauma, inclusion, and community outreach

• relying on programming to reduce decision fatigue
• using sports as a social connector inside and outside the gym
• watching the community grow through events like the holiday party and the Open
• judging, standards, and the behind-the-scenes logistics that make big nights work
• how CrossFit HQ matters and where affiliates can stand on their own
• staying motivated at 40 through incremental gains and sustainable goals
