Finally, we meet the wife.
In this episode of Killing the Fat Man—called “Not all of us are going to eat like we are cavemen”—we hear from Gary Roberts’ wife about what life has been like since her husband started his CrossFit transformation.
It’s the beginning of Week 5 and the Mrs. is noticing a trend.
“The only thing we talk about now is diet and CrossFit,” she says. “And so I think for me that’s the part that’s the most difficult. I don’t want to wake up every morning and talk about Paleo Diet.”
Still, the wife adds she doesn’t recall the last time she saw her husband “this small” and notes a change in not just his physical being but also his mental state.
“There’s a drive there that I haven’t seen in a while,” she says.
Roberts confirms, saying the experience at Oceanside CrossFit has been life changing.
“I’m mentally ready to destroy the world, man.”
