Actor Max Greenfield joins CrossFit stars around the globe in smashing 44 Guinness World Records
Athletes gather in New York, Los Angeles, London, and Sydney to put new Reebok Nano 7 to the test
IT’s not every day a world record is broken, but for 44 to be smashed in one fell swoop across the globe within 24 hours is something special.
And it was the CrossFit community that were at the heart of it as they helped to launch the brand new Reebok Nano 7 training shoe.
New entries into the Guinness World Record were made in New York, Los Angeles, London and Sydney last week as stars from the screen joined athletes in the mammoth attempt.

American actor Max Greenfield, an avid CrossFitter and star of FOX hit series New Girl, joined in the fun.
He said: “It was awesome to be a part of Reebok’s record-breaking day.
“To see so many records fall around the world is a testament to the Nano 7 and everything it can handle.”
The undoubted star of the day, however, was Camille Leblanc-Bazinet – the Canadian smashing four of the records herself, including crushing the current record for fastest pegboard climb by nearly 30 seconds.
Annie Thorisdottir, the first woman ever to win the CrossFit Games twice, extended the record for most weight lifted in a clean and jerk by an impressive 600kgs.
