Joshua Al-chamaa is the UK’s ‘Fittest Man’ and wants you to up your CrossFit fashion game
- The 29-year-old burst onto the scene after only a few years of competing and barely missed making the 2021 CrossFit Games
- Al-chamaa, who used to be a professional contemporary dancer, is bringing a new sense of style to the sport of CrossFit
Enter Joshua Al-chamaa, 29, a former contemporary ballet dancer turned CrossFitter, is bringing a new sense of flair to the sport with his infectious personality.
Now the UK’s “Fittest Man”, Al-chamaa has racked up an impressive resume in a short time. He took his first CrossFit class in 2017, and since then has placed well in a number of high profile competitions including Strength in Depth 2018 (13th), Pandaland 2019 (fifth) and the Brazil CrossFit Championship 2020 (sixth) and furthered his name by finishing 28th in the 2021 CrossFit Open.
So, what does the new kid on the block do when he’s not a community manager for WIT based out of London?
Al-chamaa, who made it all the way to the Last Chance Qualifier this season (which earned him his “country champion” title), dishes on everything from Harry Potter, greasy chicken burgers and what is the best part about being British.
