Emma Lawson has not done a CrossFit workout in three months, or essentially since the 2024 CrossFit Games. Lawson has, however, kept active by trying out different programs from pilates, running, biking and “whatever I felt like”.
Lawson posted a video on TikTok yesterday sharing that she needed the mental break and alluded that she was not enjoying it any more. So the past three months Lawson stepped back from CrossFit. Lawson explained, “For me that was taking a little bit of a step back so that I could try and find the joy for it again because I love CrossFit, I love competing and pushing myself in that way.”
Lawson’s first CrossFit session in months featured push jerks, bar muscle-ups, some SkiErg and chest-to-bar pull-ups.

Lawson said she also tried some ring muscle-ups and failed at four. But she said she now knows where she is and can start working on those things.
