In honor of Navy Corpsman Maxton Soviak, 22, who was among the 13 U.S. service members killed during the attack outside the Kabul airport in Afghanistan on Aug. 26, 2021.
Soviak was an avid CrossFit athlete who trained at CrossFit Hita, CrossFit Latte Stone, and Custom Fitness Guam. This workout includes some of his favorite CrossFit movements.
According to Harold Aranda, a family friend, “Max loved hard work, he loved the grind, and he never gave up. He was never one to put people down but rather pull them up to be great.”
