Kevin Ogar, Head of Games and Sports for the Adaptive CrossFit Games, shares how adaptive CrossFit has redefined what’s possible for adaptive athletes. From wheelchair muscle-ups to lifting 100-lb overhead, Kevin highlights the ripple effect of adaptive CrossFit — empowering athletes to reclaim independence, defy expectations, and inspire others to do the same. This isn’t just a competition; it’s a movement proving that “can’t” isn’t part of the vocabulary.

It all starts with the Adaptive CrossFit Open. As the first step in the journey to the Adaptive CrossFit Games, the Open provides adaptive athletes the chance to test themselves, connect with a global community, and set their sights on the ultimate stage.

The Adaptive Open will run concurrently with the worldwide CrossFit Open. Join us from Feb. 27-March 17, 2025, for the world’s largest participatory sporting event.
