Kyle Kasperbauer
Kyle made his CrossFit Games debut in 2009 as an individual, placing 4th at the Rocky Mountain Regional and 39th at the 2009 CrossFit Games, held at the infamous Ranch. He competed in five workouts on the first day while wearing his favorite old-school high tops and double cut-off tees. In 2010, Kyle competed on a team representing CrossFit Omaha at the Reebok CrossFit Games at the StubHub Center, earning a silver medal in the Affiliate Cup. (Affiliate Podium) In 2011, Kyle once again competed on a team with CrossFit Omaha, narrowly missing the podium and finishing in 19th place. In 2012, Kyle returned to individual competition, ready to prove he could compete with the fittest athletes on Earth. This marked the beginning of a three-year dominance in the North Central Region, as he won 1st place at Regionals in 2012, 2013, and 2014. The 2012 season was a breakout year, as Kyle earned a prestigious individual podium finish at the 2012 Reebok CrossFit Games, capturing the bronze medal and the title of 3rd Fittest Man on Earth. Notably, he accomplished this at 32 years of age. (Individual Podium) In 2013, after winning the North Central Regional for the second consecutive year, Kyle finished 20th at the 2013 Reebok CrossFit Games. In 2014, following his third straight Regional victory, he went on to place 13th at the 2014 Reebok CrossFit Games. An injury requiring surgery sidelined Kyle in 2015 and 2016. During his recovery and rehabilitation, he opened CrossFit Kinesis, located on the outskirts of Omaha, Nebraska. After fully recovering from shoulder surgery, Kyle returned to CrossFit Games competition in 2017—this time as a Masters athlete. At age 35, Kyle competed in the inaugural Masters 35–39 division in 2017. Facing a highly competitive field that included former individual Games athletes such as Neal Maddox, Chris Spealler, and Guido Trinidad, Kyle earned the gold medal and claimed 1st place in the division. Kyle returned in 2018 to defend his title in the Masters 35–39 division, earning back-to-back gold medals. In 2019, after qualifying once again for the Masters 35–39 division at the Reebok CrossFit Games, Kyle was forced to withdraw due to injury. In 2020, all age-group and team competitions at the CrossFit Games were canceled. In 2021, Kyle returned to competition in the Masters 35–39 division and earned his third gold medal in the category. It is worth noting that Kyle Kasperbauer is currently the only athlete in the world to have earned CrossFit Games podium finishes in three different divisions: Team, Individual, and Masters.
