Nothing better than seeing with your own eyes what is going on behind the scenes; the life of a professional athlete may seem simple, but in reality it is not like that at all.
There is a lot of dedication, a lot of work and effort to get to live with a passion. Being considered the "fitter" of a nation is an admirable title, but do you know what it takes to get there?
Not everyone has an idea, so we selected 3 films that tell a lot about the world of CrossFit®. If you are a crossfitter, or are thinking of joining this intense and exciting activity, you cannot miss them.
These are real documentaries, whose protagonists are names already known to all of us. They are unmissable for those who, like us, are passionate about this sport, which attracts more people every day.
Let's find out a little more about these films:

The Redeemed and the Dominant: Fittest on Earth
Release date: March 2018
In this third documentary of the "Fittest on Earth" series, shot in 2017, the strongest athletes on earth faced unknown and very tough WODs, during four of the most intense competition days in the history of the CrossFit® Games.
Emotions rise as many Australian athletes climb to the top of the rankings. At the end of the competition, some learn difficult lessons - not all that glitters is gold, but neither is bronze - and others learn that they are even stronger than they think.
The best enter the pantheon of CrossFit® giants and earn the right to call themselves “Fittest on Earth”.
