Brent Fikowski — 265-lb Snatch at the West Coast Classic
“I wish I knew back then what I know now about training and how to prep for a comp."
Older. Fitter. Wiser.
Individual Event 5 at the 2024 North America West Semifinal was familiar territory for eight-time CrossFit Games athlete Brent Fikowski.
After completing the same event at the 2016 Regionals, this was a test to see just how much he had evolved over the years.
In 2016, Fikowski finished in 7:31.24. In 2024 — eight years older and wiser — he finished over 2 minutes faster in 5:12.15.
“I’m definitely stronger, and I definitely know myself better. I think that’s probably the biggest thing is I kind of learned what works for me and kind of put aside things that maybe would work for someone else.”
