Team Rogue Vs. Team Again Faster
CrossFit's Elite meet in Tahoe for a Team Throwdown
Some of CrossFit's proven elite athletes are gathering this week at beautiful Lake Tahoe for a team competition. Team Again Faster is taking on Team Rogue, in a three day long series of contests, challenges and throwdowns. With each male and female champion from the past three years of CrossFit Games present (Khalipa, Salo, Holmberg, Matter, Wagner, and Clever), in addition to other stars such as Chris Spealler, Heather Bergeron, and Rich Froning, it's going to be an epic competition.
The exact format is yet to be revealed, but it is sure to feature both team workouts and individual call-outs in which athletes will be challenged to perform in unexpected events, on the spot. Weaknesses will be quickly identified and exploited.
Detailed coverage of the events will be available in the coming weeks.
This first video shows HQ staff members Tony Budding and Dave Castro meeting in Tahoe beforehand to plan the event. The second shows 2009 Games champion Mikko Salo talking about his thoughts heading into the competition.

Because humans function in teams alot of times. i.e. soldiers, firefighters, football players, police officers etc. If teamwork were not functional our brains wouldn't waste so much space on developing complex social skills.
