Roman Khrennikov Talks Fatherhood, Moving to the US and Becoming a Mayhem Athlete
A tough exterior shouldn’t deter you from befriending one of CrossFit’s best athletes, Roman Khrennikov. The Russian powerhouse has relocated to Cookeville, Tennessee, along with his wife Anastasiya Khrennikova and infant son Lev, which means “Leo” in Russian.
