Lauren Fisher is a brilliant athlete who is not only a five-time CrossFit Games competitor, but maintains her lead in every competition. And this despite the fact that Lauren is only 24 years old this year.
Lauren Fisher (@laurenfisher) established herself as one of the most promising female athletes in the world back in 2014, finishing 9th overall at the Reebok CrossFit Games and winning the US World Weightlifting Championship (63 kg) in the same year. In 2013 and 2015, she participated in the Games as part of the SoCal-based Invictus team, and won gold in the California region in 2016.
After her high school basketball team won the California state championship qualifiers, then 18-year-old Fischer suddenly changed sport and switched to CrossFit, which she already used in her training program. Lauren's talent for lifting large weights quickly led to her becoming one of the most competitive athletes in the world. The promising athlete last year won the California Regional and finished 25th in the Games.
Short biography
Lauren Fischer has the most amazing career history of any crossfit athlete today. The thing is, she entered the crossfit industry right after leaving school.
The athlete was born in the near 1994 year. Her childhood passed relatively cloudless. During her studies in high school, Lauren was easily accepted into two sports school teams at once - basketball and tennis.
First acquaintance with CrossFit
It so happened that the high school basketball coach turned out to be an experimenter. Instead of classic general physical training, which meant an hour of warm-up and a classic circuit training, he decided to race the women's basketball team according to the principles of workout gymnastics, taken from WOD's crossfit.
Lauren Fisher was one of the few who was able to withstand such a load at the age of 13. This gave her a serious advantage during any team competition. Nevertheless, a year later, the coach was fired due to the fact that the girls' basketball team was almost completely out of action during one of the Wod's due to severe overtraining.
This incident left an indelible mark on Lauren's memory. After that, although she continued to study in the school basketball and tennis teams, she still reduced the intensity of training. At the same time, the young athlete did not stop training according to the same principles of CrossFit as before.
With the new coach, the team, although less injured during training, did not show stunning results, right up to the graduation class. It was when Lauren's key influence led the girls to win the state championship.
Moving to professional crossfit
Lauren did not stop at what she had achieved in her school years. Instead of going to a serious economics university, she chose college and accounting courses. In her free time in college, the girl devoted herself entirely to CrossFit.
Thanks to this, already at the age of 19, the girl successfully started as a professional athlete, immediately taking very tangible positions in the crossfit world. Small prize funds for getting into the top 10 athletes in the region gave her the necessary financial support, which allowed her to concentrate entirely on sports achievements. So, after two years of performances in the professional crossfit arena, she was able to reach the ninth line at the CrossFit Games. And this is just 21 years old.
Sports perspective
Throughout her sports career in CrossFit, Fischer took part in more than 20 tournaments, and in almost every one of them, with the exception of the Games themselves, she won prizes. In addition, in 2015 she took part in the team competition under the Rogue red label. Then the girl was able to bring her team decisive victory points.
Despite the absence of serious sports awards and relatively low performance indicators of workout complexes, the girl is considered a very promising crossfit athlete. It should not be forgotten that at the moment she is only 24 years old. Consequently, she still has a huge margin, both in time and in physical capabilities, which gives her a head start over other athletes.
So it should not be ruled out that in the 2018 or 2019 Crossfit Games season, we will again see Fischer in the top 5 athletes of the tournament, or even at the top of the winning podium.
Secrets of Lauren's beautiful figure
Lauren Fisher's appearance deserves special attention. Why? Everything is very simple. Despite her high achievements, she manages to maintain a very feminine figure and a very thin waist, which is extremely rare for athletes of such a high level as her. And, at the same time, in her own words, she absolutely does not keep track of her weight, but simply applies a few tricks that allow her to remain very thin and, at the same time, very strong.
Here are the tricks:
- The first rule is to work in a weightlifting belt all the time. Lauren makes exceptions only a month before the competition in order to hone her technique, add self-confidence and make sure that she does not go wrong at the competition itself.
- The second rule is to work out the press in classical systems. Using fitness and aerobics as auxiliary disciplines after WOD, she does not allow the lateral abdominal muscles to hypertrophy and overcome that dangerous line, after which it is almost impossible to return a beautiful waist. In particular, the girl does a lot of abdominal exercises without weight. This is what allows her to maintain a very thin waist.
- And, of course, her biggest secret is that in the offseason, right after the end of the Crossfit Games, she arranges for herself a tough 6 weeks dry. Nothing supernatural - the athlete simply cuts back on calories and adds more protein to her diet.
In the aggregate, all these important points may slow down her sports progress somewhat, but they do not deprive the girl of the most important quality - seductive femininity.
Athlete achievements
One of the main achievements of Lauren Fisher can be called the fact that at her young age she is already a five-time participant in the CrossFit Games and is not going to stop there. At the same time, she is still in the junior division by age categories, and, therefore, she has both a margin of safety and an age margin that will allow her in the next season to become the most prepared woman on the planet according to the Reebok federation.

Basic indicators
Lauren cannot be called a very strong or very enduring athlete, judging only by the results of performing the basic complexes registered by the federation back in 2013. However, it is worth noting that at that time Lauren was far from the peak of her form, and, moreover, she was only 19 years old. By the way, this even does her honor, since not all young people, with the exception of professional powerlifters, can do the indicators in a squat of almost 150 kilograms at this age.

Finally
Of course, Lauren Fisher has become a star not only at CrossFit Games, but also on the Internet. The pretty girl has huge media popularity. Fischer herself does not suffer from it at all. In her own words, she devotes most of her free time to training in the gym, and everything else, including media gossip, is of little interest to her.
Nevertheless, recently the girl has her own website. She uses it for her own financial support. But, unlike other athletes, the athlete does not offer paid training and does not raise funds to support herself. Instead, Lauren successfully pursued her second dream and became a sportswear designer for Grow strong.
