well here i feel truly myself with you. i can wear what i want. where sure. show my muscles and i know it will be fine, thick, a deposit. i can be myself and feel good it. so yeah, this is the story of marianna mesa. she's among the fittest women in the world and ames to become a world champion of crossfit with mexico's national t. m. ready ah, me no one in miami, that being my name is marianna mesa, so i'm 25 years old and i have been a high performance crossfit athletes for 9 years. lucky crossfit is a discipline that brings together many other branches of training, such as domestics, weightlifting, athletic seal, swimming his time, being at a high performance level in any discipline is not for everyone. i can't tell you that being a high performance athlete is easy every day because it definitely isn't there

a days where you can't even get up because your body hurts or because you didn't have a good workout the day before or for k, i was one of the with the one that's when your head comes in and you have to be strong with because you have to be resilience. you have to face everything you're going through to continue on the path. i'm low. why are counting while coming up in their final training session? marianna and her team pushed themselves to the limit one last time the world championships are being hosted by their home country, mexico and set their sights on victory. looked at a most also we want it, we dream about hitler, and every day we put in a little more effort to achieve our goal, representing mexico at the highest level. i thought we were annoyed at having finished 4th last year and i you possibly, hadn't for last time we went with very low expectations last week. i think what we lacked was self belief. a belief that full mexicans could compete with athletes

equal to or better than athletes. was he wildly hold of him to mariana, sport demand, total control, extreme discipline, all the while mind embody, must be completely insane by. yeah, i will get is what the mental aspect is vital. and this is something that many athletes neglect and perhaps don't give as much weight to work dunphy up. but i talked to my coach and told him it doesn't make sense for me to train my body every day so hard that it hurts sometimes. and meanwhile, not train my mind. i wouldn't say now danville need know when i go i'm in it like what? okay, i see an imbecile laugh is different when i started out i got comments like you're getting too big or you're too mosley or guys don't like muscular girls for yourself . i got to a point where i didn't want to show how my body was changing because i feared the criticism yandell when you like to read them to day,

it no longer hurts or effects me. whoever such comments come from lately as long as i'm fine and i accept to myself, that's enough. me are you there? yeah, i mean, as long as you think it'll get as if with how many people i was doing, some really well for marianna crossfit is also a journey of self discovery. a path to self acceptance. one, she openly lays bare and me know that we are and that i, that in a few minutes i'm going to therapy. i'm working closely with the psychologist godaddy, bearing prejudice and criticism. if you don't know how to deal with them, it can be more of a strain than carrying a $300.00 pound ball bell. we all have problems. we all go through things with some of us in silence ski. but i think we should work on it, except that sometimes we're not well and except that sometimes we need help them by

euro. mariana doesn't earn money with her storage. it's still her life. and now she helps to be a world champion. her it's the day the world championships begin, competition spanning over 3 days on each of them. marianna and your team will complete 2 workouts, posing different physical challenges. the team is confident, but there is no margin for error in the pursuit of podium, finishes. total concentration is required. there can be no weak link in the group. the male members of the group begin, they must complete a range of exercises within 30 minutes. now to the women's turn for carla, the climbing rope is a real challenge, so the team loses vital seconds as the arrivals move ahead of them in the

competition. next, mariana has some difficulty during the hand stand walk, but quickly hands over to carla who finishes faster than expected. the norwegians were 1st to finish, but a strong team performance seized. the mexicans tick 2nd clicks. i made an error in the ham stand walk, but i think we managed it. it was just a matter of breathing a little bit, concentrating and executing the last task perfectly. i found out that the mexicans made a strong started the competition. but marianna and carlos gymnastic skills are the ace up there, team sleeve. in this work out they decide to have the men compete in the 1st phase . the other teams have had their women start out. once they're done,

it's time for mexico's women to finish things up by going head to head with the other teams men. oh, marianna and carla don't slow down. they go toe to toe with the competition's big favorite norway. not happy that you really know what happened today. makes us feel a little calmer, more confident for tomorrow, which we know will be a bigger challenge. miguel positioning ourselves in a good place, gives us peace of mind. my can i get the mood after day one is partly friendship trust and respect. these are the pillars of marianas, crossfit, family, a cough in throwing up crossfit entered my life at a very unstable stage. was they all know it?

when i was a teenager, i had eating disorders, problems at school, problems at home. there were preconceived notions. i had in the past which gave me the wrong idea about certain things being as bizarre as before. i could handle as the years went by, i became more involved in cross fet sentence competing with me. and obviously my body began to change. we invoke them, i think what else the competition, my mentality began to change and there came a point when what i did with him crossfit has an impact on the rest of my life. ok, look yes. yeah. then that all in correct. so i knew that if i had cross fit, nothing could break me. yeah. we saw nike in got us feet savvy. okay. now i'm, it will, yeah. combat the 2nd day of competition begins and the athletes must swim in pairs until they cover a distance of 250 meters, then run as a team for 3.2 kilometers. after 9 years of training,

marianna feels at ease in the water and is paired up with record. but soon other teens begin to get out of the water as carla and chris john are still in the pool. when they finally finished, they rushed towards the athletics track where the other teams have already garnered a healthy lead. once again, it's the norwegian team that leads the way after a photo finish. marianna and your teammates take 4th place in this work out. so when we set it up, we are in full, so 8 seconds behind said amazon. it was very close even though we didn't stop very well place. we closed it out as well as we could and finished in a time. we still considered goodness, but act by what after the endurance test, the teams prepare for the 2nd work out of the day where their strength will be put to the test. the home team must improve on the mornings results and that means boosting morale. their lunch break features some dancing in

their apartment, a light hearted warm up before some heavy lifting. ah, the mexican team enters with the aim of improving their score and aided by a strong display for marianna. they managed to catch up to the competition together . that way i could, i knew this, i had to do my best to support my team. we improved on our results of this webcast in comparison to our previous efforts as a competition incorporated. oh, by 6 rappers. it's a good school when a squad, the final day of the competition has arrived. and now strategy and communication will be the key quality is required. between the 4 of them they must

perform a series of exercises with the so called worm. a sack that weighs 365 pounds. if that wasn't difficult enough, one member must leave to perform another set of exercises as an individual, leaving the other 3 to carry the worm alone. once again, the norwegians are 1st to finish, but this time there is a sense of saw, the dera t, among the teams competing against each other. a team is last old, the teams that finish before them as that is support that speaks to it being a good community with that, this is yet the final work out as teams vi for a podium place, one last push from every squad member. each mistake is magnified. the norwegian flag comes into view with them. a title defense is on the cards while mexico are falling short to despite marianas,

last ditch effort to close the final work out with a better time, the locals missed the mark. they finished bottom of this work out in 5th place. now they must await the official scores. ah, the time has come, costa rica takes 3rd place ha, and mexico our 2nd. it was a long road to prepare for the competition as marianna is also on a personal journey to heal the wounds of the past and be a better athlete, day by day. look what a boy. oh, my body is a temple, thanks to me as i can do what i do every day. i'm very proud of who i am. it is my young. every muscle i have, every scar i have represents who i am. and i know that if i take care of myself and love myself, i can pass that on to others. madison lives in ah,
