Björgvin Karl Guðmundsson  

CountryIceland

The 2x third Fittest Man on Earth (’15 and ’19) has ammassed a dangerously consistent competitive record. For the last four CrossFit Games he’s finished 8th, 6th, 5th and 3rd, respectively. Couple that with 2nd at the 2019 Dubai CF Championship, 1st at the Reykjavik CF Championship, 4th at the 2020 Dubai CF Championship and 2nd at the 2020 Rogue Invitational.

Bjorgvin Karl Gudmundsson has few weaknesses and fewer mistakes in competition, a fact which makes him a strong podium pick no matter where he’s competing.
