Injured in 2012 whilst serving in the British Army in Afghanistan, Luke's rehab journey took him into Paralympic swimming - competing in the British champs as well as the Invictus Games on three occasions. Like many of us, a friend introduced Luke to CrossFit, and safe to say he was pretty hooked from the outset.
We discuss the what it likes for an adaptive athlete to do CrossFit, the welcome introduction of adaptive divisions to the CrossFit Games Open and the accessible nature of numerous competitions here in the UK.
Speaking of competitions, be sure to check out the Metcon for Mental Health (MC4MH) being run by The Fitness Collective in Cockermouth, Cumbria, later this summer.
