'In light of recent events, we have made the decision to end our partnership with CrossFit HQ,' a spokesperson for Reebok said.
Glassman's initial tweets also came after an affiliate gym owner from Seattle, Alyssa Royse, wrote a blog post calling on the company to address police brutality and protests that have been happening across the country. In the post, Royse shared a note she had sent to CrossFit HQ detailing why her gym would not be renewing its affiliate membership when their contract ended.
In an email reply to Royse, which she also posted, Glassman disputed that it was the brand's responsibility to address the protests or Floyd's death."You're doing your best to brand us as racist and you know it's bullshit. That makes you a really shitty person. Do you understand that? You've let your politics warp you into something that strikes me as wrong to the point of being evil. I am ashamed of you," he added.
