1
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:40,200
Welcome Thursday afternoon 
edition of the Spin Yeah day 

2
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,280
Later. 
Unacceptable. 

3
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,520
What are you talking about? 
Is that really the? 

4
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,400
Is that really the Jason Hopper?
No one will ever know you need a

5
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:50,840
check mark. 
Jason, is it? 

6
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:52,560
Is that like the Scott Pan 
chick? 

7
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:55,480
No, I think that's the real one 
that. 

8
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,920
Was really Scott? 
Dude, yeah, it's definitely 

9
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,400
really Scott too. 
I love how he commented on 

10
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,400
Instagram that that was not me. 
Like it wasn't like it wasn't, 

11
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,200
you know, he. 
Had no idea until I put that 

12
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:09,800
clip up. 
Yeah. 

13
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,160
Welcome day off. 
I figured we'd catch up. 

14
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:14,480
There's way too much to talk 
about. 

15
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,240
Mr. Jr. 
Howell will be joining us at 

16
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,640
some point here. 
His daughter had a little bit of

17
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,120
a Boo Boo and he had the good 
deal with that. 

18
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,280
So hopefully he'll get here 
sooner than later. 

19
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,680
We'll talk about some of that. 
Well, I'll do some special blind

20
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,120
rankings. 
It will keep Jr. for that. 

21
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,640
I think you might appreciate 
that We'll answer the. 

22
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,440
Question. 
Big fan of blind rankings. 

23
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,880
Oh, I'm sure he'll love it. 
Do we hate the WFP? 

24
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:45,640
We'll answer that question for 
you. 

25
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,360
Barry Mccochner wants to know a 
good question. 

26
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,960
Where is your WFP gear? 
The good answer is. 

27
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:54,400
Not an on would. 
A. 

28
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,960
Would a hater wear WFP? 
I actually think we're three 

29
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,200
different levels on that 
question. 

30
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,080
Do you? 
Yeah. 

31
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,640
And it's definitely from left to
right, but we'll get there when 

32
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,880
we get there. 
Be like It'll be like a 

33
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,639
political show. 
It'll be everybody thinks we. 

34
00:02:09,759 --> 00:02:11,480
Can. 
No, no, no. 

35
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,520
I think you're a Republican. 
May you think so. 

36
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,120
OK, All right. 
And then we'll talk about some 

37
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,840
semifinals and penalties and 
whatever else in the CrossFit 

38
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,520
world that we feel like talking 
about. 

39
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:26,680
See. 
Meandering show. 

40
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:27,800
Yeah. 
Yeah, I mean. 

41
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:33,000
Whenever Jr. shows up, we will 
know we're we're always late. 

42
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,280
It's. 
Just 24 hours and 2 minutes. 

43
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,400
That's right. 
Yeah. 

44
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,800
We might be jumping around. 
We may have a special guest 

45
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,040
later on. 
I don't know. 

46
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,440
We're trying to pull something 
off here. 

47
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:45,920
We'll see. 
All right. 

48
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,440
As always, though, we'll start 
with viewer comments. 

49
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,400
Go subscribe. 
This is your reminder again. 

50
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,520
We'll never get to 10,000 if you
don't subscribe by watching. 

51
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,360
All right. 
Well, since I was out last week,

52
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,800
you guys generated quite a few 
comments. 

53
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,960
The comments, the volume of 
comments was crazy. 

54
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,320
Yeah, it was a good job guys. 
I had a lot to choose from. 

55
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:11,480
It's hard to choose from a lot 
of them. 

56
00:03:11,920 --> 00:03:14,040
It's because I didn't look at 
the comments last week. 

57
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:15,120
They were like, all right, now 
ours. 

58
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:16,920
Now's our chance. 
Yeah, yeah. 

59
00:03:16,920 --> 00:03:19,280
I watched that back and I was 
like viewer comments. 

60
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,480
You read 1, then you're like, 
all right, we're up. 

61
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:24,560
Thanks. 
Dude, he struggled on that one 

62
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,320
too. 
That one took 5 minutes. 

63
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:31,480
But you know, when you have the 
the most accurate representation

64
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,920
of CrossFit fitness ever known 
to man, it's going to it's going

65
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,320
to bring some comments there. 
Natalie, that's a good question.

66
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:39,760
Do we ever buy Tyler a baby 
present? 

67
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,920
No, we're just going to give him
cold hard cash so he can buy 

68
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,840
whatever. 
I'm jealous. 

69
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:47,800
Of that I told. 
I told. 

70
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,720
Tyler, I said. 
Look. 

71
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:51,880
You're going to buy a 
PlayStation. 

72
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,880
I said to put something on there
and then she's like everybody 

73
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:57,440
had bought everything by then, 
so. 

74
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,840
I it will go to diapers and all 
the diaper, diapers and C. 

75
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,560
Four and what's you're on 
Rockstar these. 

76
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,040
Any updates on that? 
I'm trying to work on our 

77
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:12,000
Rockstar sponsorship by the way.
Would you any updates? 

78
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,760
Yeah. 
We'll see if I disappear. 

79
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,120
Do you know what's? 
Happening I'm talking about the 

80
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,680
Rockstar sponsorship, not I 
don't care about I'm just 

81
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,160
kidding. 
I'm just kidding I'm just 

82
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,760
kidding I'm just kidding. 
But it's it's, it could happen 

83
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,880
like at any moment, right in. 
Fact. 

84
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,240
Literally. 
Yeah, are. 

85
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,360
We talking about Rockstar or the
baby? 

86
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:37,640
The baby, yeah. 
Yeah, OK Jason Hopper enjoyed 

87
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:42,240
hanging with Tyler this weekend.
I actually took my sunglasses 

88
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,000
off so people knew who I was, 
unlike others. 

89
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,400
I actually love that dude. 
I freaking loved. 

90
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:50,880
It. 
How did how did Hillary pull 

91
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:52,880
that off? 
We should we should he should 

92
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:57,320
take like he should have had 
like secret videos like I'm in 

93
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,480
The Cave, but but like and then 
show Bruce Wayne like entering 

94
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,440
Wayne building and like, you 
know what I'm saying? 

95
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,120
Like, like and people don't know
who he is. 

96
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,680
That's his disguise. 
He should have filmed it that 

97
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,360
way. 
Like the whole the whole reel 

98
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,320
that like you get when Batman 
leaves the bat cave, like he 

99
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,120
fires up his Jeep, like all that
stuff. 

100
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,760
It's like this man is Batman's 
disguise like, and then that's 

101
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,160
what Hitler should have had 
done. 

102
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:21,760
Could you guys tell by the 
footage? 

103
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,800
I don't know that he was there 
all three days. 

104
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,840
I think he just snuck in for one
day and left. 

105
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,560
I think it was Friday. 
I don't go ahead. 

106
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,480
There was 1 moment where I 
thought I saw him and then like 

107
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,720
I turned around and that person 
was gone and I was like my 

108
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,440
head's just fucking with me and 
then I was and then like. 

109
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:39,840
I saw that he was there and I 
was like. 

110
00:05:39,840 --> 00:05:43,480
Did I see? 
Him and you know he saw you, so 

111
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,000
you'd be like. 
You know what's crazy is like 

112
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,360
all it would take is one person 
to recognize him. 

113
00:05:50,280 --> 00:05:52,080
It's over. 
And then it's over because 

114
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,920
people would start talking like,
how did you see Hiller? 

115
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,280
And then it'd just be everybody 
would be talking about it. 

116
00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:58,040
Big thank you. 
What's? 

117
00:05:58,880 --> 00:05:59,960
Up, Andrew. 
All right. 

118
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,920
Yeah, but you're not, you're not
the regular fan. 

119
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,040
I think I've been more like, I 
can't believe Hiller's actually 

120
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:11,040
at this. 
Yeah, big thank you to Sarah Cox

121
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,880
for let me hang out in the VIP 
suite. 

122
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,120
We'll, we'll. 
Definitely have to get to that 

123
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:19,440
after we read the comments. 
All right, first one at Dave Dad

124
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:25,600
versus dad bod 8188. 
I'd honestly pay for a show with

125
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:29,200
Caleb Bryson. 
I mean, they're super chats. 

126
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,080
We can do this. 
I think they do that. 

127
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,080
On a way you see meaning Caleb 
and Bryson or? 

128
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:38,440
Caleb and Bryson, OK, OK, yeah, 
those two guys, yeah, super chat

129
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,400
it. 
I think once you saw the show 

130
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,400
you might ask for a refund, but 
we could. 

131
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,880
We can do it. 
Though it's it, there's no 

132
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:51,600
refunds, so go for it. 
Let's see at Martin's Juno. 

133
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,240
This Sea Beaver guy doesn't know
anything about CrossFit as a 

134
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:59,000
sport. 
I don't think he claims to. 

135
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:00,360
Yeah. 
We we were. 

136
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:01,200
We were. 
We were. 

137
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,440
We were. 
Short on people, guys like we 

138
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,320
to. 
Get some however, at sea Beaver 

139
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:11,120
wanted to say no, but I know a 
lot about your mom. 

140
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,760
Seems like a nice lady but I'm 
not calling her back so boom 

141
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:22,920
roasted at Carter Peterson 7 
James over Dallin referring to 

142
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:27,960
your games mountain. 
Yes, U2F is going on in here. 

143
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,360
I'm telling you what's going to 
happen. 

144
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,640
I think we should. 
I think I should start going by 

145
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:38,040
John Stradamus from now on 
because, because if I put it out

146
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:39,240
there, that's what's going to 
happen. 

147
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,240
You guys will start listening 
sooner and later. 

148
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,440
Yeah, yeah, we'll get to this at
Misha 1147. 

149
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:52,280
More mountain talk. 
Humiliating mountain of mud I 

150
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:58,240
don't care about online puts 
Meiha over Brooke both because 

151
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:03,280
of what they did online well. 
When that's all I have to go off

152
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,960
of, you tell me the in person 
competition that Brooke did 

153
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,160
where she deserves to be ahead 
of Meiha. 

154
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,240
There's not. 1. 
There's not one. 

155
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,600
I bet you she regrets not doing 
Mayhem now. 

156
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,320
I mean I I hope she does 
syndicate but. 

157
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,880
I hope so. 
You know, right now Juan's got a

158
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:26,920
games ticket and won, won the 
online semi finals now that they

159
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,160
all the penalties have come out,
which is wild. 

160
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,200
Yeah. 
And I think she's earned that 

161
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,200
spot on the bottom row of the 
mountain. 

162
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,440
Yeah, I mean, she looks very, 
very good. 

163
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,760
And and I mean, those are hard. 
Those are hard events. 

164
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:47,920
Or you know, like, it wasn't 
like they were open workouts. 

165
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,920
Yeah, and it's not that it 
doesn't matter at all, it's that

166
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:58,320
the IT matters less than what 
Mayhem in person is. 

167
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,560
Does that make sense? 
And like, I look at the World 

168
00:09:00,560 --> 00:09:02,840
Fitness Project and I will get 
to it 'cause I said that didn't 

169
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,920
matter either. 
I'm saying it does not rogue, 

170
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,240
it's not Wadapalooza. 
It's not one of the biggest 

171
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,560
CrossFit Games events there is, 
even though it has a huge talent

172
00:09:13,560 --> 00:09:17,400
pool. 
I, I'm aware, but clearly, like,

173
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,680
you know, when you got Veldner 
and Laura being 70% of 

174
00:09:20,680 --> 00:09:24,920
themselves, it's not as serious 
as I would say, like the three 

175
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,160
biggest competitions that we had
or people vying for their game 

176
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:34,240
spots like they were at mayhem. 
So I the in affiliate the online

177
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,440
semi final matters. 
World fitness project matters, 

178
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,600
but at a lesser rate than those 
other ones do. 

179
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,200
That's what I'm referring to 
when I say it doesn't matter. 

180
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,680
It's like when I say I don't 
care about the people that don't

181
00:09:47,680 --> 00:09:53,240
matter All of a sudden when 
freaking one of the Syria Miha 

182
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:57,360
wins the online semi finals. 
Oh, shoot, you all of a sudden 

183
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,200
matter. 
I should probably figure out 

184
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,000
what the freak you're about 
like, you know, you know what 

185
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,440
I'm saying? 
But if you're 32nd and somebody 

186
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:09,480
says you have potential, I don't
care about you until you show me

187
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:14,480
that you mean something. 
And that's that's how that work.

188
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,680
I don't know why people have a 
like or have complicated this or

189
00:10:17,680 --> 00:10:19,520
have a hard time understanding 
this. 

190
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,760
Me either, the mountain is so 
simple. 

191
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,720
The mountain is fair. 
It is. 

192
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,680
And you tell me. 
You tell me, you guys tell me. 

193
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,040
OK, you put Brooke and and 
Syria. 

194
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,280
We got it. 
We need to figure out how to say

195
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,400
it. 
I think it's Syria. 

196
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,280
Syria or Syria? 
I like Syria a lot better, 

197
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,760
Sercia. 
That's Sercia. 

198
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,400
Definitely not Sercia. 
You tell me which one's done 

199
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:50,880
more for this this year? 
Which one's deserving of being 

200
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,280
higher this year for what 
they've done this year? 

201
00:10:54,560 --> 00:11:00,800
Yeah, Fergie for $1.99. 
What is the favorite Knoxville 

202
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,200
restaurants? 
I bet it's within 5 miles of 

203
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,880
McDonald's, but I'm not sure 
from there. 

204
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,400
OK, so here's what you want to 
do you the best restaurant in 

205
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,760
Knoxville is actually in 
Clinton, which is not in 

206
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,520
Knoxville. 
You want to go to Big Ed's Pizza

207
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,320
in Clinton? 
There you. 

208
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,760
Go I need to I need because we 
we're still confused here. 

209
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,280
Royal Fitness project was far 
superior talent. 

210
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,640
Why swat of pollutants and women
in men's fields not even close. 

211
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,920
Tanner, you're right. 
I think this comment is biased 

212
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:38,560
because you were there, but it 
you people the prize at the end 

213
00:11:38,560 --> 00:11:43,640
of it is not $100,000. 
Half of the field is not like 

214
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,800
not trying. 
Everybody is peeking out for 

215
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,800
this competition. 
Everybody wants to be great. 

216
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:50,960
People are just showing up for a
paycheck. 

217
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:55,040
Tanner, it's big time different.
And yes, the fittest of the 

218
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,760
world are still there. 
They're still competing like I'm

219
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,400
not. 
I think half of it and Tyler, 

220
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,960
Tyler said this earlier, I think
half of the field is competing 

221
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,080
and half of the field is just 
there for their paycheck and 

222
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,680
that's fine. 
But that I don't maybe it was, 

223
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:16,480
it was Bryson, I thought you 
sounded good, but that's a 

224
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,360
different competition. 
Whenever you're like people are 

225
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,000
trying and people aren't trying,
then you're the people who are 

226
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,760
trying. 
Your lowest spot you're going to

227
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,240
get is like 11th place because 
they're all the 10 are not 

228
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,720
trying and I know you're trying 
Tanner, but you're not fit 

229
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,920
enough to matter yet in a. 
Competition, that's. 

230
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:36,400
Like that and maybe you'll get 
there one day, but right now you

231
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,840
don't make a difference in those
kind of competitions. 

232
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:42,760
But I hope you do one day. 
Tanner. 

233
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:43,360
I love you. 
Tanner. 

234
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:44,880
You're you're you are you are 
great there. 

235
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:49,880
You go Tanner. 
Was it both? 

236
00:12:50,560 --> 00:12:52,960
And what place did you come in 
in both those competitions? 

237
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,680
Because I'll ask Dallin and I 
bet Dallin gives me a different 

238
00:12:56,680 --> 00:12:58,520
answer. 
So if you 2 are giving me 

239
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,240
different answers, what's that 
mean to you? 

240
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,160
Dallin's a liar. 
Well, let's let's get off of it.

241
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,080
You're great. 
You're great, Tanner. 

242
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:11,480
Go look at Tanner. 
Let's see Misha continues 3 day 

243
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,840
competition with literally all 
the big names in the sport. 

244
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:19,840
Not a single word on it. 
Pathetic in quote. 

245
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,520
They won't try because they get 
paid over. 

246
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,760
Get over yourself and admit when
you're wrong. 

247
00:13:25,560 --> 00:13:28,680
Love the show and watch every 
week but this was just all just 

248
00:13:28,680 --> 00:13:31,360
very childish. 
Is this US transitioning? 

249
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,360
I I was jumping 2 topics. 
I feel like you should. 

250
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:36,560
We should have two different 
viewer. 

251
00:13:36,560 --> 00:13:38,120
Comments. 
This was 2. 

252
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,480
This was 2 comments by the same 
viewer. 

253
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:41,920
No, no, no. 
He's. 

254
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:43,600
No. 
Are we are we switching 

255
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,840
sections? 
Here to do we hate the WFP he's 

256
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,480
saying I. 
No, this is this is, this was a 

257
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:53,640
comment by Amisha, Frankie said.
I know Spin is so pissed that 

258
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,200
the WFP is going really well 
even though he's going to 

259
00:13:56,200 --> 00:14:01,880
pretend it doesn't bother him. 
Remembering COVID, you remember,

260
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,720
I'm sorry, you remember during 
the 49ers game when everything 

261
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,920
was like, yeah, we should 
definitely do go to the 49ers 

262
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:15,760
game. 
And then it was like, oh, maybe 

263
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,680
maybe we should watch the 49ers 
game from the, you know, the, 

264
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,640
the cheap sheet seats. 
And then it was like, oh, maybe 

265
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:22,840
we should watch it from the 
parking lot. 

266
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:27,200
And it's like, oh, maybe the 
49ers suck sometimes. 

267
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,120
That's what happens. 
Well, I'll answer the question. 

268
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:36,320
I'm not sure I'm pissed, but 
yeah, well, I will, I think. 

269
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,280
I think, I think you would have 
rather them not be great. 

270
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,560
Is that fair? 
To say, oh, you mean you're 

271
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,040
saying we're bias? 
No, just what you want to 

272
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,120
happen. 
No, I still, that's what I'm 

273
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,080
saying. 
I was watching Clydesdale on my 

274
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:59,600
way home and he had Kotler on 
and I asked some questions about

275
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,760
it. 
And I I think between listen and

276
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,000
we'll get more into it. 
But I think listening to train 

277
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:09,320
think tanks show that was what 
was that put out this morning 

278
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:14,400
and hit listening to Kotler and 
everything I've started to hear 

279
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,880
like when they talk about and 
what I've been seeing of what 

280
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:23,720
athletes are doing, it's 
starting to turn into what my 

281
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,440
fear is. 
And I'll, I'll explain it later.

282
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,520
So just stay with me. 
Oh God. 

283
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,120
I'm here for it, I'm here for it
and I'm gonna tell y'all right 

284
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,080
now. 
Spin is absolutely correct. 

285
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,840
I don't know what what we're 
talking about, but Spin is 

286
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,080
absolutely correct. 
And what he's going to say, it 

287
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:41,520
doesn't. 
You could still have your 

288
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,680
opinion, but I'm not. 
Gonna have your opinion but 

289
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:50,720
you're wrong. 
All right all right, we got a 

290
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:55,360
CrossFit not cringe story, so 
it's a little long, but I think 

291
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,400
it's definitely worth it. 
So you gotta stay with me the 

292
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:04,320
account the account user is the 
pen is blue one or the penis 

293
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,480
blue one. 
I'm not sure which one it is, 

294
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,120
but the pen is blue one is the 
one I'm. 

295
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:13,440
Gonna go with That's a good one.
All right, CrossFit, not cringe.

296
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,800
This is wild. 
So first day at a new gym, 5:00 

297
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:20,280
AM class and I plan to get there
like 15 minutes early to get my 

298
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:25,360
waiver signed account activated.
I did take him two weeks off of 

299
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,160
training which means I was 
eating like crap. 

300
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,360
As I drive to the gym the pre 
workout starts brewing in my 

301
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,520
belly, mixing with two weeks of 
bad decisions. 

302
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,920
When I park at the gym, nobody 
is there yet. 

303
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,400
I'm running around the gym in a 
panic trying to find a safe 

304
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:48,880
place to relieve myself. 
There wasn't one at this point, 

305
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,000
there isn't enough time to 
leave. 

306
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,360
The end was near. 
I got back into into the back 

307
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,920
seat of my forerunner and filled
a large McDonald's cup to the 

308
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:06,680
brim with the unspeakable. 
At this moment, people start. 

309
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,280
Pause, pause. 
I. 

310
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,839
There's no way I could trust 
myself to land in that small of 

311
00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:16,160
an area, especially like if it's
explosive, you're blowing out 

312
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,599
everywhere and I'm definitely 
not doing that in the 

313
00:17:18,599 --> 00:17:20,480
Forerunner. 
It's not it's not their first 

314
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,040
time, Tyler. 
This ain't the first rodeo. 

315
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,240
I don't want to say anything, 
but I am the person that put. 

316
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,600
That I'm just kidding. 
Your pen is blue. 

317
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:34,520
No, I'd never come. 
Let's see, at this moment people

318
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:38,240
start showing up to the gym. 
I panic to pull up my shorts and

319
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,240
get out, but the child locks her
on so I have to crawl to the 

320
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,360
front seat and get out, all 
while people are walking past me

321
00:17:45,360 --> 00:17:49,600
to go inside. 
I left the hot shake in my truck

322
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,040
and went inside to be greeted by
the owner who hands me the iPad 

323
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,400
to get my membership started. 
After 30 seconds, I politely 

324
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,320
excused myself to clean up the 
train wreck in my pants. 

325
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,760
Nobody ever suspected what 
actually did that, what I did 

326
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,160
that morning in the parking lot 
and I never spoke of it. 

327
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,000
Oh yeah, I threw the hot shake 
in a public trash can on my way 

328
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,120
home. 
This guy's out there. 

329
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:18,440
He's roaming around, he could be
anybody, and he's listening to 

330
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,560
this show. 
I'm going to tell you something.

331
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,680
I think all of them did, No. 
And nobody just said anything. 

332
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,080
Yeah, Everybody's just cool. 
They're like, yeah, this dude 

333
00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:30,360
smells like. 
He's one of he's from one of 

334
00:18:30,360 --> 00:18:32,520
those like colonies. 
Like he's. 

335
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:37,680
Like. 
Yeah, I think Crossfat got it 

336
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,760
right. 
Yeah. 

337
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:41,720
I don't know how you how you do 
that. 

338
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,280
Yeah, you got to wear like, like
super thick Cologne the next 

339
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:46,480
three weeks to make people 
forget. 

340
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,160
That's so that was Gabe's burner
account. 

341
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,720
We figured it out. 
Totally can relate. 

342
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,280
So eat clean. 
I think it's the moral of the 

343
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,520
story there, all right. 
I've never had that issue. 

344
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,480
Pre workout responsibly, folks. 
Yeah. 

345
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,320
Where do you want to go next? 
We got like 7 minutes I think 

346
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,640
until Jr. 
Hopefully will be able to to 

347
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,360
join us. 
Do we want to get knee deep into

348
00:19:10,360 --> 00:19:12,400
WFP stuff? 
I think that's going to last 

349
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,920
longer than 7 minutes. 
I you want to go blind rankings 

350
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,920
and then we'll go Jr. and then 
we'll dive into WFP. 

351
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,520
Semifinals Penalties. 
Or we can do that, yeah. 

352
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,160
Semifinals penalties can 
probably be pretty quick. 

353
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:31,280
Semifinals, penalties, I think 
they're done with them as far as

354
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:32,800
men was light. 
Men. 

355
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:34,400
The men were. 
The men were light. 

356
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:36,480
Yeah. 
Semifinals penalties Brick 

357
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:41,560
Wells, top 11 out. 
Olivia Kursetter, top 11 out. 

358
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,560
Who else was it? 
Kyra Milligan who? 

359
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,560
Got there, Caroline Stanley was 
out, got penalized out, Kyra 

360
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,560
Milligan got bumped up until 
they then naked her score. 

361
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:58,920
So she is out and now we have a 
top, a top 11. 

362
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,480
Guys, Miriam von Rohr. 
Holding it down and. 

363
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:07,440
That's why I said her name 
correctly, because she is now a 

364
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,320
CrossFit Games act. 
She's earned it. 

365
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,400
She's earned me saying Miram, 
Miram out of second. 

366
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,840
She sucks. 
We're going to go back to a hard

367
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:22,360
H Miram. 
Here. 

368
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:29,240
We go era Lowen got penalized 
and that put Sriracha on #1. 

369
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,480
Sriracha, you better. 
Put respect on her name. 

370
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,120
Did you all watch her videos? 
Yeah. 

371
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:40,560
Yeah, I watched to make sure, 
like. 

372
00:20:41,120 --> 00:20:42,880
She moved properly. 
She moved. 

373
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,400
Clean all of them. 
He's legit. 

374
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:49,520
Man, I mean, I don't know, she 
doesn't look like a whole lot 

375
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,560
bigger either. 
I mean, I'm not going to. 

376
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,320
I know I'm not like the expert 
in P people doing some stuff, 

377
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,520
but she doesn't look like she's 
done some stuff, you know? 

378
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,720
She just, I mean, it could just 
be time, man. 

379
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,920
Like she just finally hit that 
hit that precipice. 

380
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,720
Thing she I'm not I'm not saying
she is legit, but she looks 

381
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,560
legit and now live competition's
far different. 

382
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,440
I'm it's not like I'm going to 
put her high up at like my games

383
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:18,880
rankings when I we make them, 
but she looks legit. 

384
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:23,280
So I'm not going to speak poorly
on her until poorly comes upon 

385
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,840
her. 
But the yeah, dude, I'm excited 

386
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:28,520
to see her. 
Where's she from? 

387
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,640
Albania. 
Albania. 

388
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:36,960
That's right, Annika Greer, 
Albania, not 12th place, so 

389
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,160
that's good. 
Yeah, my opinion on Annika has 

390
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,880
not changed at all. 
If you run, if you run at the 

391
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,320
games, then what are we then 
She, is she, what's she going to

392
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,200
be? 
I mean no offense, but if it was

393
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,120
at 24 games. 
Last place it. 

394
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,720
Would not be good. 
She would be underneath Laura, 

395
00:21:54,720 --> 00:22:00,080
who quit in three events. 
Yeah, Maddie Sturt. 

396
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,600
No surprise. 
Danielle Brandon, were you 

397
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:06,400
surprised that? 
No, no penalties on her cleaning

398
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:10,680
jerks. 
What was wrong with them elbows?

399
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,000
Everybody was starting to get 
angry on the the jerk that it 

400
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,040
was made a full lockout or is it
was a little bit. 

401
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,120
No, I mean, I think people are 
being a little bit too anal in 

402
00:22:19,120 --> 00:22:22,440
that circumstance. 
I, I don't, I, I think it's 

403
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:23,200
fine. 
I think she's fine. 

404
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:27,440
I I going back up I, I agree I, 
I did not think that that was 

405
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:34,400
one that warranted a penalty. 
I was surprised that Ariel's 

406
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:41,760
score was not hit as hard. 
But with that, we're going to 

407
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,440
stop talking about all of that. 
We'll. 

408
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,560
Come back to that. 
Yeah, we'll come back to that. 

409
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:51,560
We'll do that later. 
What's more important is Mr. Jr.

410
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,480
Howell. 
Welcome to the show. 

411
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:55,320
What's up? 
What are we? 

412
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,400
What did I miss? 
Who fell off the mountain? 

413
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,080
Who's? 
No, we're actually going to 

414
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,680
repeat this Crossfitter cringe 
story that I think, I think, I 

415
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,200
think, I think you, I think you 
can relate to honestly, Jr. 

416
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:13,120
Is Jr. 
Pen is blue it? 

417
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,160
Could be Did you? 
Have you ever gone to a 5:00 AM 

418
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:21,360
class and the pre workout and 
your bad bad habits of eating 

419
00:23:21,360 --> 00:23:24,400
catch up with you and you have 
to take a dump in a McDonald's 

420
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,400
cup? 
Oh, we know it's your. 

421
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,520
It's McDonald's cup. 
Nope, not Jr. 

422
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,480
It's not me, by the way, Jr., 
this is a random. 

423
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,160
Story has to be about. 
I was about to say it has to be 

424
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,160
about John. 
If it's more if it's McDonald's.

425
00:23:36,360 --> 00:23:39,880
No, I have the stomach of iron. 
OK, I nothing happens. 

426
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:44,000
You only eat like three things. 
And and they work. 

427
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,680
Beautifully for it. 
We don't have a stomach of iron.

428
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:49,960
Well, we don't know what kind of
stomach I had. 

429
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,000
It's not about me, Jr., OK? 
Let's let's move on. 

430
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,200
First off, Jr., your daughter, 
all right. 

431
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,000
Yeah, 6 stitches good as. 
Not bad. 

432
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,880
Yeah, let's be the story. 
She she split it up and pretty 

433
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,400
good, just right under the chin.
That's a good one. 

434
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,320
It was a lot of blood that that 
that's what freaked her out. 

435
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,040
So it kind of sent her into a 
panic. 

436
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,680
I'm just glad I was there 
because I'm like super calm. 

437
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:20,480
And if my wife would have been 
there, it'd just been Becca. 

438
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,440
I mean, when she walked into 
urgent care, she just 

439
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:23,600
immediately. 
Started crying so. 

440
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:29,240
Yeah, my youngest, I guess he 
was probably 5 or 6, was 

441
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:33,360
skipping around on Halloween one
Halloween night and tripped over

442
00:24:33,360 --> 00:24:37,640
the like one of the little mats 
we have and hit his eye right 

443
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:41,640
above, like here and like, it 
bleeds a lot. 

444
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,920
And it was Halloween night. 
So yeah, that was a fun. 

445
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:47,840
I have that. 
I have that same spot. 

446
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:52,080
I, I stole a ball from a guy in 
a basketball game and hit the 

447
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:56,880
shit out of his head and his 
head split open on the top and 

448
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,560
my eye split open. 
Went and laid it up and 

449
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,360
everybody was just looking at me
like what, What are you doing? 

450
00:25:02,360 --> 00:25:04,480
And it was just like gushing 
blood, but I couldn't see it 

451
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,400
'cause it wasn't in my eye. 
And I was like, why is everybody

452
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,200
stopped? 
They were like, well number one,

453
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:12,720
you found the shit out of him 
and your eyes open. 

454
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,360
Welcome boys on the right. 
You guys will be there soon 

455
00:25:16,360 --> 00:25:17,640
enough. 
Yeah. 

456
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:22,640
Yeah, Tyler's any minute now. 
You'll be freaking out about 

457
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:24,400
cutting their toenails, you 
know. 

458
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:27,280
Yeah, that'll be good. 
All right. 

459
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,240
Well, the reason we had you jump
on you actually you're. 

460
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,320
Talking about you want to talk 
about cutting toenails that is 

461
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,440
all right. 
Well, yeah, we can clip that. 

462
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,400
Yeah, we're. 
Talking about buttered sausage. 

463
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,840
Dude, Leslie. 
Leslie clipped Abby's 

464
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:44,160
fingernails. 
I don't know. 

465
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,480
I went for toenails, fingernails
and like got her finger a little

466
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,120
bit and like started in like 
blood actually extremely hard to

467
00:25:51,120 --> 00:25:53,200
cut their toenails. 
That's why I said. 

468
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:54,760
That and I knew you. 
Weren't going to do it. 

469
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,880
I knew it. 
Was and yeah, and she, she got 

470
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:03,000
blood came up and then Abby 
started screaming and she's 

471
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,240
like, she's like, I don't. 
Know what to do I was. 

472
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,760
Like well. 
Maybe don't clip her nails? 

473
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,080
Until we like, we can. 
I don't know. 

474
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,120
Like wait till she's 5. 
Yeah, wait till her appointment.

475
00:26:14,360 --> 00:26:16,680
And then, and then she's and 
then she went to clip the dog's 

476
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,720
nails and they ran away from her
heart while the dogs were not 

477
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:24,080
about it. 
Nail clipping day. 

478
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,400
You guys hadn't paid attention. 
It was Wednesday, yesterday. 

479
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,680
Obviously that's when big news 
comes out and that's why, of 

480
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:38,840
course, we didn't do the show. 
But the workouts, the events, 

481
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,080
they're here. 
They're here. 

482
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:47,160
Mr. J Howard programmed them so.
Dude, I didn't talk. 

483
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:50,560
I they never even came up, not 
once. 

484
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,760
I'm I'm I'm offended at the text
messages. 

485
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:57,000
Honestly, quite frankly, 
proudly, I was offended of. 

486
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,080
Them made it buddy. 
We're proud of you. 

487
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:01,680
Yeah, I didn't. 
Get any? 

488
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:06,480
I didn't get any direct messages
about leaks that were actually 

489
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:07,760
true. 
So that was nice. 

490
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:12,160
And I, to be honest, I mean, 
Wilson's known the workout since

491
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,000
December. 
The testing people have known 

492
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,960
them since maybe January at the 
latest. 

493
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:24,280
Like all the the staff, like the
scoring, the judges, so many 

494
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,960
people have known for so long 
that it's made me really, really

495
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,320
anxious. 
So it's nice to know that people

496
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,240
are trustworthy. 
Except me, who you know needs to

497
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:33,760
plan the production. 
But it's a whole different 

498
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:34,080
issue. 
What? 

499
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:40,480
What's funny is you, you had 
sent me the workouts what, like 

500
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,200
that morning or that night or 
the night before. 

501
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,440
And so I was getting it ready. 
But I was curious if Wilson was 

502
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,920
going to mess up and put him on 
the website early and he did not

503
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:51,720
get him password protected till 
the last minute. 

504
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,680
Dude, Wilson. 
Wilson's like, on top of it, 

505
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,360
man. 
He, he told me, he told me that 

506
00:27:56,360 --> 00:27:59,040
specifically on Wednesday 
morning, he said, hey, here's 

507
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,480
your, here's a link to the 
website that like here's the 

508
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:06,760
code and it will not go live 
until after 12. 

509
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:08,280
So that spin doesn't get him 
early. 

510
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,600
Yeah, No, he was. 
He thought of you Spin. 

511
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:11,480
I checked. 
I. 

512
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,720
Found the URL even though there 
wasn't a link to it. 

513
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,480
I found it and I sent a 
screenshot. 

514
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:17,520
I. 
Was trying. 

515
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,120
I said well played. 
He was on the phone with or we 

516
00:28:21,120 --> 00:28:24,160
were on a call with him. 
When he when you did that, he 

517
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:25,920
was like, I freaking told you 
he's going to do this. 

518
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,640
Hey, I mean Norcal, they they 
put stuff out there didn't think

519
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:31,840
anybody would check their 
website and I did. 

520
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:39,080
So you know, it happens, the 
events Friday. 

521
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,360
Heavy Isabel. 
Yeah. 

522
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,640
And let me just say, let me just
interrupt you real quick. 

523
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:44,360
Spin. 
I mean he. 

524
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,360
Made it 5-4. 
What started out, what's what I 

525
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:49,640
mean, go ahead and go to the 
first lot. 

526
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:53,880
What started out is like, I 
mean, I built the whole 

527
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,360
competition off of this workout.
The whole thing. 

528
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:57,720
Really. 
This is the. 

529
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,280
One, it kind of needed to be. 
Dude in in November, in 

530
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:05,040
November, I texted Bill and 
Chase and I said right after 

531
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,400
Rogue and I said, hey, you guys,
you know, they did like 30 

532
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,600
sandbag Queens per time. 
What do you think about, you 

533
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,560
know, Rogue has done 30 cleaning
jerks per time. 

534
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,320
What do you think about doing 30
snatches like Heavy Isabel, like

535
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,960
Rich and Matt did? 
Like in a competition, He's 

536
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,520
like, I think it's cool for a 
strength workout, not for a 

537
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:21,960
finale. 
It's a little bit slow. 

538
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:26,680
And I was like, cool. 
And so I right then I was like, 

539
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,880
I'm going to do this. 
Obviously someone who actually. 

540
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,840
Did it? 
That AdvoCare had the same idea.

541
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,640
And then from then on it becomes
everyone's done it and 

542
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,920
everyone's tired of it. 
And now every time I see this 

543
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,520
workout or think about this 
workout, I just get angry and I 

544
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,760
cannot tell you how glad I am 
that it's Event 1 and I don't 

545
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:51,400
have to think about it anymore. 
I'm sorry man, I, I, I feel for 

546
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:51,960
you. 
How? 

547
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,840
Crazy is that it sounds like 
everybody was kind of thinking 

548
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,920
about it. 
It's like even even Castro and 

549
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,120
Bosman, I think, I really think 
two people were thinking. 

550
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,000
About it. 
And then it made everybody want 

551
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,760
to do it. 
I wonder too, like my knowledge 

552
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:10,840
like Bos and Dave didn't get our
workouts early. 

553
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:12,920
Just like hey, let me see what 
you guys got. 

554
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:15,800
You know, if I were them, I 
would want to know just because 

555
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,080
I'm a nerd. 
But like, I, I wonder too, if, 

556
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,800
you know, Dave's doesn't know me
at all and knows Rich really 

557
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:23,880
well. 
If he was like, what are you 

558
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,120
guys doing at Mayhem? 
And he sent him and he's like, 

559
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,560
oh, Eddie, Isabel's cool. 
Maybe we'll do that. 

560
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,520
But you know who? 
Knows, I think, I think David in

561
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:36,560
one of his week reviews said 
that they were kind of actually 

562
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:40,240
toying with the idea ahead of 
time and then heard it and 

563
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,520
they're like, then they had a 
discussion about do we change 

564
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:43,800
it? 
Do we keep it? 

565
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,480
And the decision was, let's just
go ahead and keep it. 

566
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,760
Yeah, yeah. 
I'm not sure how I feel about 

567
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:55,160
the same workout all the way 
across from that. 

568
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,640
I I do agree that having it as a
finale was it Wadlin Fest that 

569
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,840
did it as the finale. 
Yes, yes. 

570
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:06,760
Yeah, it was not as exciting as 
you would hope for a final 

571
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,040
event. 
Yeah. 

572
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,080
Yeah. 
And, and honestly too, like this

573
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,240
is a good time to bring up all 
you people that think we need to

574
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:18,000
have uniform programming. 
Remind yourselves how sick and 

575
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,360
tired you get of, of seeing the 
same workouts for four or five 

576
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:25,040
straight weeks. 
And we've only seen this one at 

577
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,240
almost all of them. 
I would be surprised if if 

578
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:32,160
Torian did it. 
I'd be surprised if Asia did it.

579
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:33,680
I think Rebel will do it 
because. 

580
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:38,880
They just announced it. 
It was like and then some, some 

581
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,360
of those same ones rather doing 
the 303030 workouts. 

582
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:46,200
So that's just. 2. 
Like it's a lot more fun when 

583
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,000
people do their own thing and 
one or two maybe that are 

584
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,440
consistent is OK. 
Especially I think if it's a 

585
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:56,080
strength workout, it's good to 
know that aw man, that guy's 

586
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,520
really weak overhead. 
He just got lucky that it was a 

587
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,800
clean jerk ladder or a clean 
ladder and not a snatch ladder 

588
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:02,960
because he wouldn't be going to 
the game. 

589
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:06,080
So in a way, I think that it 
being the strength workout is is

590
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,360
a good thing. 
But I think this goes to show 

591
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,440
you how tiring it can be. 
Well. 

592
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:15,640
And I think. 
Especially when some of the same

593
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,600
athletes are doing it, you know 
what I mean? 

594
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,000
Because it's not like, like, you
know, athletes get to go to 

595
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,840
multiple things and they do it 
and they did and they did it in 

596
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:26,520
the in affiliate one too, which 
makes it like OK, like. 

597
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,000
Yeah, like, like Olivia 
Kerstetter has to do it this 

598
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,600
weekend at TFX. 
And I know. 

599
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,760
She's going to win it. 
Like sure. 

600
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:37,320
Yeah, and I mean, you know, 
we'll get to it with these 

601
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:42,640
events, but I don't believe in 
coincidences that are this 

602
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,400
broad. 
But there for a little while, 

603
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,520
like after Fibonacci, the 
overhead walking lunge was the 

604
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,000
thing. 
People would do it. 

605
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,200
People did it in elimination 
style workouts. 

606
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,320
People, people just love the 
overhead lunge. 

607
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:55,720
They loved it. 
Then it went away. 

608
00:32:56,080 --> 00:33:00,720
It went away for years. 
Wadlin had a single arm. 

609
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:04,560
Mayhem had a single arm. 
French Throwdown had an axle 

610
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,680
bar. 
I have dual kettle bells. 

611
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,440
An affiliate has dual dumbbells.
Come on. 

612
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,120
World Fitness Project has the 
finale. 

613
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,840
Had doubled. 
You can't just I just don't 

614
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:17,960
believe that all these 
programmers just all of a sudden

615
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,600
this year was like, you know 
what, we should bring back the 

616
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,960
overhead lunch. 
I think people talk a lot more 

617
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:29,080
than they than they admit, but I
kind of wish I was one of those 

618
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:30,160
dudes because I don't talk to 
anybody. 

619
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:32,200
That's this is a good point 
right here. 

620
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:42,960
I would I would actually push 
back that maybe Taurian will do 

621
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,000
a classic like back. 
Out. 

622
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:49,080
Or like lift, yeah. 
So I mean, who doesn't want to 

623
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,400
watch Gee and even guys like 
Jake Douglas, like super strong 

624
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:53,640
too. 
I mean, I'm sure I'm sure he's 

625
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:54,880
in the field, right? 
So. 

626
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,120
Yeah, all the, all the. 
Pyrotechnics and everything too.

627
00:33:58,200 --> 00:33:59,600
I mean, that's an electric 
atmosphere. 

628
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,280
Everyone wants to watch people 
lift heavy. 

629
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,160
So. 
I I just want some spotlights. 

630
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,520
Yeah, I think when like the 
other news that came out this 

631
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,199
week about the last chance 
qualifier, I think a lot of 

632
00:34:11,199 --> 00:34:15,120
people said why did you just 
give 12th place to the last 

633
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,480
chance qualifier? 
I think goes to your point of 

634
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:20,560
it's the same programming, 
right? 

635
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:24,679
Like my concern when Heavy 
Isabel was going to be 

636
00:34:24,679 --> 00:34:28,960
programmed every time is like 
somebody like Emily Rolf is 

637
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,480
going to struggle to get in 
because of that one strength 

638
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,080
workout. 
Right. 

639
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,800
And I get that the semifinals 
have used to be, you know, last 

640
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:38,880
year was the same program and 
all across the board. 

641
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:44,679
But when you go to the 
sanctional type structure and 

642
00:34:44,679 --> 00:34:49,000
athletes are to have some type 
of options available like you 

643
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,360
would expect them to be able to 
have. 

644
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:54,360
Maybe I'll like a different type
of programmer or, you know, over

645
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:56,000
the over the years, you can go 
somewhere else. 

646
00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,560
The Last Chance qualifier gives 
these athletes a different path,

647
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,880
different workouts, still 
testing them in a different way,

648
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,520
but they're not limited to buy 
30 heavy snatches. 

649
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,880
I think one of the workouts for 
last chance qualifier is going 

650
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,160
to be heavy Isabel. 
I sure hope not. 

651
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:17,440
I disagree. 
I'm I'm, I'm kidding. 

652
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,360
I thought, I didn't think you 
guys would take me seriously, 

653
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:20,920
but you did. 
So let's just move on, all. 

654
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,240
Right heavy, Isabel. 
I don't think there's too much 

655
00:35:24,240 --> 00:35:26,640
to talk about. 
Good news is it's the first one 

656
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:32,240
like Jr. said, so we'll move on.
Friday afternoon Regionals 

657
00:35:32,240 --> 00:35:37,960
Revenge the Hundreds 100 slash 
80 calorie Echo bike 100 toes to

658
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:44,360
bar, 100 bar facing burpees 100 
front squats at 115 slash 85 

659
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:45,800
lbs. 
A long workout. 

660
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,040
Yeah, long a long old school 
workout, right? 

661
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:56,560
So I mean, we can go way, way 
back guys. 

662
00:35:56,560 --> 00:36:01,760
The 1st 100th shipper is Angie. 
That's the first 100 shipper, 

663
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,160
right? 
100 pull ups, 100 push ups, 100 

664
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,640
sit ups, 100 squats and then 
regionals one year. 

665
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:11,280
I think that one that was like 
100 overhead squats, 100 pull 

666
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,760
ups, 100 double unders, which 
back in the day, you know, that 

667
00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,160
would have take I think 2011 
that that's probably took some 

668
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,880
people 5 seconds. 
It's crazy how far we've come. 

669
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:25,280
But then the most recent one, 
you know, is the one that you 

670
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,280
remember Khalifa doing like the 
final week and trying to break 

671
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,560
the time to be trying to be 
richest time, I believe. 

672
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:35,440
But 120, I'm sorry, 100 wall 
ball, 100 chest of our 100 

673
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,600
pistols, 100 dumbbell snatch 
with the 70 back when no one 

674
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,440
knew how to touch and go 
anything and everyone was 

675
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,480
everyone was doing singles 
alternating and it was just 

676
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,360
disgusting. 
So yeah, I mean, this is kind of

677
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:50,480
a theme throughout, but my 
primary goal obviously is to get

678
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,520
the right two people to games. 
After that, I think it 

679
00:36:53,720 --> 00:36:55,960
everything else needs to be a a 
far second. 

680
00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:02,480
But I do really like to call 
back some things that maybe 

681
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:05,880
people don't do anymore in their
training, like stuff like this. 

682
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:07,880
We're like, hey, this is all I'm
doing today. 

683
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:12,000
I'm doing this 20 minute workout
that is not just going to be 

684
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,120
sitting on three ergs or is not 
going to be a bunch of running 

685
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:17,360
and it's just going to be 
classic CrossFit. 

686
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,400
And I'm going to have to deal 
with these really big sets and 

687
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,520
try to strategize how to get 
through them. 

688
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,560
And then also like this is an 
opportunity for coaches to 

689
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:29,840
really flex and show that, hey, 
we've tried it a couple 

690
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:31,640
different ways. 
This is the best way we're going

691
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:36,200
to be last off the bike or hey, 
the calories actually let us get

692
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,120
30 to 45 seconds ahead and we're
going to need that on the 

693
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:40,520
burpees. 
So that's what we're going to 

694
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,000
do. 
Or, hey, all these people are 

695
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,480
going to be getting to the 
burpees tired. 

696
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:49,320
My plan is to do the first 75 
squats unbroken, like whatever. 

697
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,760
There's just so many different 
ways you can go about racing 

698
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:55,360
this. 
And I think that a long mixed 

699
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,560
modality workout like this isn't
done a whole lot anymore. 

700
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,800
And I've had a couple people 
text me that I've already 

701
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,200
qualified that are like, I need 
to do this in my training. 

702
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,560
Like I just need to do it and 
and figure it out. 

703
00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:11,040
Like if I'm putting that 
situation at the games and you 

704
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,680
know there's a hundred of 
something or how am I going? 

705
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:17,480
To get through that. 
So, and I think that people, I 

706
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:21,400
don't people might not catch on 
is the last movement is almost 

707
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,280
the only movement that you can 
really race. 

708
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:27,920
Like obviously people are going 
to have like faster paces than 

709
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:32,560
other others, but everybody's 
gonna have their pace that 

710
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:33,840
they're holding on the Echo 
bike. 

711
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,360
Nobody's like sending 100 cows 
in the echo bike. 

712
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,400
Everybody's gonna break their 
toes to bar up in sets and then 

713
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:41,840
the bar facing burpees are just 
going to be like a steady pace 

714
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,360
through the whole thing. 
They probably advance it at some

715
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:49,080
point. 
And then and then the front 

716
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,680
squats will be where you can 
make a choice. 

717
00:38:51,720 --> 00:38:57,360
You have a game plan, but that's
where workout gaming, like being

718
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,800
good on game day, happens. 
You see, he's 10 reps ahead of 

719
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,120
me. 
I'm going to go unbroken through

720
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:08,400
50 to just to to break this man 
right or or girl. 

721
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:11,600
Yeah, it's your point. 
It's your point, John. 

722
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:15,680
Like it's a lot easier to jump 
back up onto the pull up bar for

723
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,880
a set of five than it is to pick
up that bar again after you've 

724
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,240
dropped it. 
It's just a lot different in 

725
00:39:21,240 --> 00:39:22,920
that time of the work. 
Every time you put that bar 

726
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,560
down, the clock starts and it 
just melts away. 

727
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:32,040
So your point about the Echo 
bike though, because it's 

728
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,240
calories specifically, that's a 
whole other conversation that 

729
00:39:35,240 --> 00:39:40,600
I'm just very firm on. 
But there are people that 70% is

730
00:39:40,720 --> 00:39:43,720
a 12 calorie lead compared to 
someone else. 

731
00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:48,360
So they're not going for it. 
They're just like, hey, this is 

732
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,640
my comfortable pace and it's 
just faster than yours. 

733
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:55,600
However, toast a bar burpee 
front squat, the big long 

734
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,240
athlete, like that's all they 
get right in this world. 

735
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,800
They they get that first 
movement and then after that the

736
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,200
the deck's a little bit stacked 
against you after a workout that

737
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:07,960
should have been, you know, 
pretty good for you just to, you

738
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,960
know, to start the competition 
for this workout. 

739
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,280
I just want to talk about 
testing because to me, that's 

740
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,120
the most important part of this.
I mean, four people came and did

741
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:20,200
an entire simulation weekend 
with two hours rest in between 

742
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,960
in a closed gym. 
It was extremely like the floor 

743
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,080
was marked out the way it's 
going to be. 

744
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:29,800
And then I had some remote 
testers and the remote testing 

745
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:36,400
athlete that did this work out. 
Their splits were 522-520-5541 

746
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:39,680
and five O 7. 
That's going to be tight. 

747
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,080
So that's about 21 minutes. 
That athlete is Colton Merton's.

748
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:46,560
So if you think Colton so you so
you think Colton's doing the 

749
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,760
burpees in 541, you think people
aren't going to be just going 

750
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:52,880
through mud? 
Like listen to those splits. 

751
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:56,120
Those are really, really 
consistent splits. 

752
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:59,200
They're pretty splits. 
And, and obviously closing on 

753
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,800
the squats for Colton is not 
going to be what most people can

754
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:02,840
do. 
So yeah, he did it. 

755
00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:05,560
You know, he did a workout that 
day or maybe 2 and then hit this

756
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,480
for me and you know, he's not 
in, he wasn't in peak shape when

757
00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:10,520
he did it, but I knew, hey, he's
in the West. 

758
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:14,120
He could win this workout. 
I need to know if the cap is 

759
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:16,400
appropriate and I need to know 
if someone can go sub 20 on. 

760
00:41:16,720 --> 00:41:19,880
That that's that's like 45% 
slower than when he did it 

761
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:23,000
against Berman. 
The 100 bar facing burpees. 

762
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,120
He. 
Was he was like 333? 

763
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:27,560
Oh, you're pacing? 
No, I think it was 3/19. 

764
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:28,240
Was it? 
Yeah. 

765
00:41:28,240 --> 00:41:30,280
So I mean that's over 50% 
slower. 

766
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,280
Yeah, and I, I, you know, I 
talked to him about it. 

767
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,400
I was like, hey, are you cool if
I tell people that you tested a 

768
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:36,800
couple of these and what your 
times were? 

769
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,360
He's he's fine with it. 
So I just think it's good to 

770
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,160
talk about him specifically 
because a lot of people are 

771
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:43,720
going to be wondering what's 
possible. 

772
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:47,960
And I told him to do transitions
and every like roll the bar 

773
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:52,000
every 25 burpees, roll the bar 
every 25 front squat, like he 

774
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:55,960
did all that stuff. 
So, yeah, I mean, this workout 

775
00:41:55,960 --> 00:42:00,080
originally was back squat, and 
that would have been a hey, do 

776
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,000
people want to hold on? 
It kind of. 

777
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:06,240
Kind of came down to a when they
drop it, though, how do they do 

778
00:42:06,240 --> 00:42:07,360
it? 
Do we let them bail? 

779
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,240
Do they bring it in front? 
Do they? 

780
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:11,200
And it was just a little bit 
clunky. 

781
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,480
So we, we, we, we toured around 
with some other movements. 

782
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,400
The, the yoke was originally 
front rack carry. 

783
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,440
And then I was like, hey, well, 
let's just switch the two. 

784
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,280
Let's get him in the back rack 
once and get him in the front 

785
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,320
rack. 
There's a lot of legs. 

786
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,600
There's a lot of midline here. 
There's a lot of shoulders going

787
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:29,080
from the burpee to holding that 
front squat. 

788
00:42:29,240 --> 00:42:33,120
I mean, the testing athletes 
that it was as much shoulders as

789
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:36,080
it was legs. 
So Angelo got capped. 

790
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:40,360
Taylor did front rack step UPS 
because he couldn't squat and 

791
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:45,280
still finished and Lindsay got 
capped and Molly Mcgrandy 

792
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,760
finished so 2 got capped, 2 
finished so that that was that. 

793
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:52,400
Let me know that 25 is not a 
Gimme and that people will get 

794
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:56,000
capped, but I do want a lot of 
people to feel all 400. 

795
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,080
Of these reps yeah, they're 
they're getting capped at like 

796
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,280
80 front squats, they're not 
getting capped like without even

797
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:02,000
getting. 
To the front. 

798
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:03,200
Oh yeah. 
And they're and they're going to

799
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:06,400
be fighting for those squats. 
So whatever they get, they're 

800
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:07,560
going to feel the rest of the 
time. 

801
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,160
For sure. 
The one, the one thing I thought

802
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:14,640
about when I saw this workout 
was the pill squat workout from 

803
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:19,000
Crucible, and I wondered how 
many coaches were good enough to

804
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,840
go through, analyze your 
programming over the past couple

805
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:24,560
years, see that one and be like,
he's probably going to try 

806
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:28,080
something like this. 
Well, the year before in the 

807
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:32,960
retour there was 100 shipper. 
It was a. 100 Trapeze, toasta 

808
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:38,240
bar 100 and kettlebell snatch. 
100 boxed up over 100 kettlebell

809
00:43:38,240 --> 00:43:41,200
squat and I was a little bit 
annoyed that Colton did that in 

810
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:45,200
like. 14 or 15? 
Minutes needed some redemption 

811
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:49,480
with one that was a little a 
little hard actually, Angelo was

812
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:52,680
hoping I would use the pill for 
this workout for the squats and 

813
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:58,080
just kind of bring that back but
rogue was extremely generous and

814
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:04,680
they don't they they don't carry
those so I was like barbells 

815
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:08,480
fine, you know so. 
Yeah, this one, this one's going

816
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:10,000
to be one of my favorite ones to
watch. 

817
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:15,120
Yeah, typically the the 25 
minute workouts are not, you 

818
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:17,520
know, it's a little rough to 
watch, but I mean, I think this 

819
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,720
one. 
I think you're going to. 

820
00:44:19,720 --> 00:44:21,200
You're going to see them. 
Fighting, you're well, you're 

821
00:44:21,240 --> 00:44:23,880
going to see all the big guys in
front and then you're going to 

822
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,440
see, and they probably can hold 
on to it through the Tosa bar, 

823
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,920
but then you're going to see 
this like pretty shift with all 

824
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:34,440
the little flying burpee guys 
from the big guys. 

825
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:35,920
It's going to be really fun. 
Yeah. 

826
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,200
Yeah, and last thing about this,
I know we need to move on like 

827
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:44,480
bar facing burpees standard is 
going to be get over the bar 

828
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:46,760
anyhow. 
So as much as it's cringe for me

829
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:50,280
to watch people step over the 
bar and just turn around and get

830
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:51,320
down. 
Hey. 

831
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:57,880
If I'm not in the, I'm not. 
I'm not, I'm not interested in 

832
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:02,960
the subjectivity of a 12 take 
off or whatever on this and a 

833
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,800
hop versus a step. 
So hey, if you want to be more 

834
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,120
athletic looking and you want to
go faster than jump over. 

835
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:11,240
But if you don't just step over 
and you can go a little slower 

836
00:45:11,240 --> 00:45:13,720
like that's fine too. 
What we are bringing back though

837
00:45:13,720 --> 00:45:17,520
is the 17.1 line that bisects 
the object. 

838
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:22,440
So everyone will be doing true 
perpendicular bar facing burpee 

839
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:26,440
and not that pseudo 45° angle. 
So it'll be one hand and 1 foot 

840
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,080
on either side of the take one. 
Tyler, I think me and you 

841
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:32,160
sometime during this during the 
weekend after they do this, we 

842
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,520
should partner work out and see 
if we can beat the the winning 

843
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:36,800
time. 
Yes, with all the time we have, 

844
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:38,480
we will definitely do that. 
Dude. 

845
00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:40,760
Well, we could do it in the 
morning, it'd be fine. 

846
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:47,600
You never know the WPTH. 
Do we can part do let's be 

847
00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:50,200
partners and do it. 
I forgot we got to do that. 

848
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:55,320
We do a lot of stuff. 
I, I, I think it would be fine 

849
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:57,040
if we can. 
If we can do it, we should see 

850
00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:00,880
if we can beat the winning time.
You got to get ready for for 

851
00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:03,720
Isabel though, John. 
Yeah, you know what? 

852
00:46:03,720 --> 00:46:05,000
We're just going to see what 
happens. 

853
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,920
I I hurt, I hurt myself last 
grid practice. 

854
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:15,040
So like I haven't been able to 
touch a barbell and like like 5 

855
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,400
days. 
So I'm hoping that I'm OK for I 

856
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:21,560
got to be OK for Saturdays next 
Saturday and then Isabel's after

857
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:22,760
that. 
So I'm just trying not to hurt 

858
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:24,400
myself. 
And then, you know, whatever 

859
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,920
happens, happens, I might get 
out there and just try to touch 

860
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:30,560
and go 12 in a row and then be 
like I blew, I blew up myself on

861
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:31,640
purpose, right? 
So. 

862
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:34,240
I could see that happening. 
Yeah. 

863
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:41,240
Good Saturday workout #3 Yoke 
repeater, 8 rounds, 400 meter 

864
00:46:41,240 --> 00:46:45,760
run, 40 foot yoke carry at 
420-5305. 

865
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:48,680
All of these. 
Workouts are my favorite 

866
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:50,360
workout. 
Every single one of them. 

867
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:55,480
So this obviously the name here.
I should bring back some bike 

868
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:59,120
repeater, which was essentially 
just a lot of hard biking with a

869
00:46:59,720 --> 00:47:02,440
interruption of 1 legless rope 
on every round. 

870
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,760
So this is that, right? 
This could definitely just be 

871
00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:11,200
called the the, the, the run, 
the run interrupter, right? 

872
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:13,200
And if it same way as the yoke 
repeater. 

873
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:17,680
What's cool about this workout 
for me is that I think it's the 

874
00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:19,520
most misunderstood workout of 
the whole weekend. 

875
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:21,880
I think a lot of people look at 
it and they will look at it and 

876
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,480
just say, oh, OK, so the yoke 
doesn't matter. 

877
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:27,520
It does matter and it matters a 
lot. 

878
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:29,880
And the best way I can describe 
it to you is just to speak to 

879
00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:32,280
the testing. 
Like on paper, in my opinion, 

880
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,280
Taylor is a better runner than 
Angelo. 

881
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,880
Angelo is a good runner, but 
Taylor's a very, very good 

882
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:41,560
runner because of, and they were
like side by side the whole 

883
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:44,320
workout, like within two or 
three seconds the whole workout.

884
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:48,280
The original version was 10 
rounds of 340. 

885
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:51,840
But because the venue landscape 
and having to run a lot inside, 

886
00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:54,400
we decided just like them, to 
run a little bit so people could

887
00:47:54,480 --> 00:48:01,160
pass each other a little easier.
The hesitation late, maybe not 

888
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:04,440
even hesitation, just the speed 
at which Angelo could get the 

889
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,320
yoke on him and walk with 
urgency. 

890
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:09,920
And it's guys basically like 
you're running with the yoke, 

891
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:13,320
like you're not walking slowly. 
You are trying to get it on and 

892
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,800
off of you as fast as you 
possibly can. 

893
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:20,280
You're still moving that thing 
over 100 yards with 400 and 300 

894
00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:23,920
lbs on your back. 
It does do something to your run

895
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,280
that it's hard to describe until
you feel it. 

896
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:29,400
And Angelo ended up winning that
work out barely. 

897
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:33,960
But on paper, if it was just a 
two mile run, I would not bet 

898
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:38,240
against Taylor. 
So just the the opportunity 

899
00:48:38,240 --> 00:48:41,080
every time that maybe lose a 
second because you walk a little

900
00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:43,040
bit faster. 
I mean, it's really 10 seconds 

901
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:46,960
every yoke, so you're only 
looking at 80 seconds of a 15 

902
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:50,920
minute workout. 
But yeah, the yoke does matter. 

903
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:53,200
It is heavy enough to matter if 
it was lighter. 

904
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:56,280
Like Midline Madness is a lot 
like this workout. 

905
00:48:56,280 --> 00:49:00,480
The berm run, empty yoke. 
That was really, really light. 

906
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:04,760
It was about the berm, right? 
I think this is heavy enough to 

907
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,440
affect the run, Lindsay and 
Molly. 

908
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,800
Lindsay's a far better runner. 
Just plain run. 

909
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:13,920
Molly kept it really close 
because I think the yoke just 

910
00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:15,960
didn't affect her as much as it 
affected Lindsay. 

911
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:18,320
I mean going to it and leaving 
it. 

912
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:21,760
So prime cap wise, a lot of 
people will look at this and 

913
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:23,600
say, oh wow, there's 2 long 
workouts. 

914
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:25,520
You never really see 2 long 
workouts. 

915
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:30,560
To me, that 15 to 17 minute time
domain just doesn't get hit a 

916
00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:32,760
lot unless it counts as a long 
test. 

917
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:36,200
And for me, I think that's a 
really important time domain and

918
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,000
it's not a 20 minute plus time 
domain. 

919
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,600
I just think hard running, 
proving you can run before you 

920
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:44,960
get to the games is maybe the 
most important thing you need to

921
00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:48,240
show. 
So yeah, this will do that, but 

922
00:49:48,240 --> 00:49:51,600
also gives people an opportunity
to use and implement in a 

923
00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:55,160
workout and not an accessory 
session that they probably don't

924
00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:57,720
use in a high intensity workout 
like. 

925
00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:00,320
This, yeah. 
I mean you think about 8 rounds.

926
00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:04,960
I mean it. 
You have to be running fast to 

927
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:08,800
get you have time cap like if 
you're doing if you're doing 8 

928
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,360
minute miles. 
You're pushing it. 

929
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,240
You're barely going to finish 
and probably don't. 

930
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:18,120
Dude, if you're doing 8 minute 
miles, you're not here. 

931
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:19,920
There you go. 
I was going to say like. 

932
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:22,800
Well, we don't know that though.
Like they got in through the 

933
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:24,480
open. 
Kale's not doing it, dude. 

934
00:50:25,720 --> 00:50:29,080
Like. 
For me it's a A2 minute round 

935
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:31,520
with it, like I said, with a 10 
second yoke. 

936
00:50:31,720 --> 00:50:33,560
And let's just say there's a few
seconds right? 

937
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:36,440
You you pause or you have to run
back out of your lane. 

938
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:39,560
So every other round you're 
running a little bit farther. 

939
00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:43,240
All that into consideration to 
me is like, hey, this is a 2 

940
00:50:43,240 --> 00:50:45,880
minute round workout unless 
you're just not a good runner. 

941
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:50,720
So I think the fastest times 
though will probably be 1415. 

942
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:53,960
Yeah. 
And I'm sure the run will be ish

943
00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,880
and we will make sure we let 
everyone know before the hey, 

944
00:50:57,040 --> 00:51:01,560
the run is actually 410 or the 
run is actually 372 or whatever.

945
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:02,720
You know, we'll, we'll let 
everybody. 

946
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:04,760
We'll film the walk. 
We'll show you excuse. 

947
00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:08,560
Me. 
This was not exactly 400 meters.

948
00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:10,320
I got my wheel out and 
everything. 

949
00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:13,960
Three times we're going to do 
that morning of we're. 

950
00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:15,480
Doing that that. 
'D be good. 

951
00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,000
This is. 
Not a boring workout, but in a 

952
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:19,440
way it's like my favorite one 
because I think it's the most 

953
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:24,520
easily overlooked and this 
workout hurts man. 

954
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:28,880
And 100 toes to bar yoke carry. 
We're still going to get on the 

955
00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:31,640
GHD. 
Like the midline just gets hit a

956
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:34,080
lot all weekend long. 
Yeah, I like this one. 

957
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:38,520
I mean, I I'm sure probably 99% 
of the athletes that are going 

958
00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:42,840
to be there have done a yoke 
carry in training. 

959
00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:45,680
I'm not sure all of them have 
done it in a competition. 

960
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,440
And I don't, and I don't think a
lot of them have done it with a 

961
00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:53,360
monostructural element. 
I think they usually do. 

962
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:58,640
It yeah, go ahead. 
Carry the yoke, run back, carry 

963
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:01,320
the heavy sand back, run back, 
carry the heavy farmer candles 

964
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:03,680
and it's like a strongman medley
type situation. 

965
00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:08,880
Or it's carry the yoke, you 
know, do some GHD, do some yoke,

966
00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:12,920
do a rope climb like the one WFP
did is like a very like classic 

967
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:15,200
combination of just same 
structure, right? 

968
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:17,840
Just an interference in between 
the rogue climbs, but a little 

969
00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,760
bit more classic strongman 
gymnastics mix. 

970
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:25,160
I just think this one is not one
that people are going to see and

971
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,320
have done anything like it 
before. 

972
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:31,880
So you just kind of like you get
what you get on this workout, 

973
00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:34,280
like you got two weeks, but you 
ain't just going to get good at 

974
00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:37,880
this workout in two weeks. 
Speaking of that, I don't think 

975
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,720
Mayhem put out like they put out
the workouts, but they didn't 

976
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:46,280
put down the breakdown workouts 
or like in testing what they 

977
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:48,120
did. 
Is this the first time we've 

978
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:51,360
ever gotten like, an analysis of
what is possible with Colton 

979
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:55,800
Taylor Angelo before him tested?
They tested but. 

980
00:52:56,720 --> 00:52:58,240
They didn't make it public, 
right? 

981
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:04,000
I think that like Dave writing 
his book in 2018, I think he 

982
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:05,160
said he's working on another 
one. 

983
00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:07,800
Like that kind of stuff's 
fascinating to me because what I

984
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:13,240
always want to know is, OK, this
is what the athletes on game day

985
00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:17,840
who tested it, how did they come
up with Rep schemes, changing it

986
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,360
time caps, all that. 
Like for instance, like like for

987
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:23,240
boss, like I want to know who 
tested the dumbbell, the 

988
00:53:23,240 --> 00:53:26,960
dumbbell over headlines GHD. 
Like I just want to know because

989
00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:29,600
I think it's cool to know. 
Like was it like Hobart moves 

990
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:30,840
amazingly? 
Did he test it? 

991
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,560
Like did did Boz do it himself 
with 50s? 

992
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:36,320
Did he do it himself with 70s? 
Like I just think stuff like 

993
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:38,680
that, even after the fact, would
be awesome. 

994
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:42,160
So like for the programmers to 
say, hey, this is what I had at 

995
00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:43,600
first. 
This is how I changed it. 

996
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,160
I mean, yeah, there's probably 
only 100 people in the world 

997
00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:49,040
that care, but I just think it 
would be cool because being able

998
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:53,480
to speak to all the decisions 
you make would make me probably 

999
00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:56,520
be more or less critical of it. 
Like a Beck. 

1000
00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:58,360
Oh, OK. 
So This is why they did it. 

1001
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:00,480
OK, cool. 
Well, this the story of the. 

1002
00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:02,880
Fibonacci finale. 
I mean he was like we had Julie 

1003
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:06,320
and Alcarez tested. 
I didn't know he was literally a

1004
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:10,600
God at deficit handstand push 
ups and he did the workout he 

1005
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:14,880
finished the workout under 6 
minutes and turns out, oh, he's 

1006
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:17,440
one of the best in the world of 
this freaky movement and the 

1007
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:21,640
fittest in the world can't do it
like that and I I didn't know 

1008
00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:25,240
that now I do I like that's 
that's those stories are cool. 

1009
00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:25,640
I. 
Agree. 

1010
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:30,040
What do you what do you think 
releasing talking about the the 

1011
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:31,840
athletes who tested it, their 
scores? 

1012
00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:33,600
What do you think that that does
to the athletes who are 

1013
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:36,280
listening and and looking for 
tips right now? 

1014
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:37,840
Like how do they? 
Proceed over the. 

1015
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:40,120
Next two weeks. 
I hope it gives them some really

1016
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,480
good data because I, I think at 
this point it's a level playing 

1017
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:45,560
field. 
And like, if people want to 

1018
00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:50,360
reach out to Taylor and be like,
hey, dude, you know, I tested 

1019
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:53,760
Metal March and like, I don't 
know, I was a little bit 

1020
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:55,320
conservative first. 
I didn't finish it. 

1021
00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:57,880
Like Taylor's probably going to 
be like, hey, dude, you can't be

1022
00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:00,480
conservative on this workout. 
You're the muscle. 

1023
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:05,080
The muscle fatigue is coming and
it's two on, one off, 2 on, one 

1024
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:07,120
off. 
If you can squeak out another 10

1025
00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:09,840
feet on round one, you do it. 
If you can climb the rope a 

1026
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:12,520
little bit faster on round two, 
you do it because eventually 

1027
00:55:12,720 --> 00:55:17,200
it's going to and you just when 
you when you want to go faster, 

1028
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:18,680
you're not going to be able to 
go faster. 

1029
00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:22,560
So I hope that they, I mean, if 
I were anyone, I would be 

1030
00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:25,440
reaching out to those people and
asking questions about it, but. 

1031
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,120
You know, I'm sure Colton will 
appreciate all the DMS. 

1032
00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,360
Speaking. 
Speaking of Metal March, we have

1033
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,840
our intervals. 
It does not feature jump ropes. 

1034
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:40,440
To cap it off, 223 intervals one
minute between 50 slash 40 rogue

1035
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:47,240
pro double unders, 4/3 cut rope,
rope cut rope climbs and then 

1036
00:55:47,240 --> 00:55:51,120
Max distance in the remaining 
time dual kettlebell overhead 

1037
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:55,360
walking lunges until you 
complete 240 feet which is 6 

1038
00:55:55,360 --> 00:56:02,600
times down the 40 foot path. 
This looks gross. 

1039
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,680
Yes, the work rest. 
I think it's really necessary. 

1040
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:09,480
Gosh, I remember when the 
original intervals came out and 

1041
00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:13,000
just how creative and how cool I
thought it was and watching some

1042
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:18,480
epic blow ups and watching Matt 
when Dave was like it's not 

1043
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:20,480
possible to do in three. 
And he's like give them that 

1044
00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:23,320
look like I'm going to die try 
and like that, like that kind of

1045
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:24,600
stuff. 
Just those are the memories that

1046
00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:28,960
I have and and advancing down 
the floor and and, you know, 

1047
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:33,920
telling the story and just like 
this like idea of a buy in work 

1048
00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:35,960
out that a lot of people just 
did in training and they didn't 

1049
00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:37,360
really think to do it in 
competition. 

1050
00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:40,440
And it ends up being one of the 
one of the coolest format. 

1051
00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:45,920
So 2017 had to cut rope at 
regionals and a chipper. 

1052
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,600
It was also heavy wall balls. 
As I remember the year before 

1053
00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:52,600
they went to the ranch and they 
did heavy wall ball at the ranch

1054
00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:56,000
and back in the day, we saw that
clear trickle down year to year 

1055
00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:59,280
and it was so cool. 
It was like, hey, we did 200 LB 

1056
00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:02,320
kettlebell deadlifts. 
The next year you got 150 LB 

1057
00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:05,680
kettlebell deadlifts. 
Like it's like you saw that, 

1058
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:07,520
hey, if we're doing at the 
Games, you need to be ready to 

1059
00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:09,280
do it at regionals. 
If we're doing it regional, you 

1060
00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:11,360
need to be ready to do it in the
open or whatever. 

1061
00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:16,360
So, yeah, bringing back the cut 
rope, the Rogue Pro double 

1062
00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:19,760
under, unless you've been to 
Rogue or you competed at 

1063
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,560
Wadapalooza a few years ago and 
did that flip sled workout, you 

1064
00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:25,800
probably have had no competition
where they use that jump rope. 

1065
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:29,600
So there's a lot, you know, 
there's the drag rope and you 

1066
00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:33,240
know, Bellitis has that has that
cable that, you know, they're 

1067
00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:34,880
sponsoring a lot of workouts, a 
lot of them. 

1068
00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:36,560
But this one is different, 
right? 

1069
00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:41,560
Having the handles that are 
weighted and releasing it early 

1070
00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:47,080
enough so that the outliers that
are 6, four or 4 foot 10 can go 

1071
00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:50,000
on Rogue and buy their own and 
size it and just bring it to us 

1072
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:52,360
the competition and be like, 
here's my rope and we'll inspect

1073
00:57:52,360 --> 00:57:53,560
it and be like, you're good to 
go. 

1074
00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:56,880
Like it's really important for 
me and Wilson, the athlete 

1075
00:57:56,880 --> 00:58:00,360
experience in a way of like, 
hey, if we're going to use 

1076
00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:04,080
something that not a lot of 
people have, let's provide it 

1077
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:07,360
for them and let's tell them the
sizes that they're going to get 

1078
00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:09,560
access to and then they can make
their own decision. 

1079
00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:11,440
If they need something 
different, they can bring it 

1080
00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:13,720
with them. 
So I'm really excited about 

1081
00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:16,880
this. 
I don't know if anyone can do it

1082
00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:19,760
in three intervals. 
Taylor was really, really close.

1083
00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:23,840
And I think honestly, he would, 
he would probably win this 

1084
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:27,080
workout in whatever field is 
there because he's so good at 

1085
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:29,400
the cut rope. 
There's a lot of athleticism 

1086
00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:31,000
there. 
And if you don't practice that, 

1087
00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:33,600
it's hard to be really, really 
efficient, especially when 

1088
00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:37,120
you're blown up. 
And then if you have good grip 

1089
00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:40,560
endurance and if you're a good 
upper body puller, do you have 

1090
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:45,480
good overhead position? 
Because if you have the grip in 

1091
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:48,040
the pulling but your overhead 
position is not good, it's 

1092
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:49,440
really hard to do. 
Well, Tyler. 

1093
00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:51,880
So I'm I'm going to do really 
well with this one. 

1094
00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:56,240
I've got a good chance here. 
It's just like you. 

1095
00:58:56,480 --> 00:58:57,880
Want to go back? 
You want to go ahead and add in 

1096
00:58:57,880 --> 00:58:59,880
this one, Tyler. 
Absolutely. 

1097
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,440
I don't know if I can get 
through the 1st bite and I'll be

1098
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:04,160
honest with you. 
You can. 

1099
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:08,600
Did Taylor do the the catch and 
play up between the the thighs? 

1100
00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:09,760
Is that how? 
We no. 

1101
00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:14,000
It's but actually I went and 
watched that and Brent do it the

1102
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:15,920
following weekend. 
And you know, Brent's one of the

1103
00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:19,200
best in the world at life list, 
but he's like, hey, I can, I'm 

1104
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:21,640
tall enough to where I can do no
legless. 

1105
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:25,080
And I texted him about it. 
He said, Yep, easiest event went

1106
00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:28,240
in my career right there. 
You know, 'cause he was, he was 

1107
00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:29,480
tall. 
It was heavy wall ball. 

1108
00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:32,760
It was overhead walking lunge. 
It was double under like it was 

1109
00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:35,520
just wheelhouse. 
And he got through those rope 

1110
00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:37,160
climbs and his arms weren't 
blown up. 

1111
00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:42,120
So anyone who anyone who hasn't 
done a cut rope climb before, 

1112
00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:45,640
it's very different. 
If you think about how a rope 

1113
00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:48,400
touches the ground, hopefully 
not too much at your gym, it's 

1114
00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:51,120
kind of anchoring the rope. 
So when you go to clamp it, it's

1115
00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:54,400
got that weight. 
But when you are missing 5 feet 

1116
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:57,160
of the rope off the ground and 
you go to clamp, it just kind of

1117
00:59:57,160 --> 01:00:00,080
swings around everywhere and you
can blow up your biceps just 

1118
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,800
trying to find your foot in so. 
It's a it's a Shorty rope for 

1119
01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:03,600
people who don't. 
Yeah, it's. 

1120
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:05,080
It's what, 5 feet off the 
ground? 

1121
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:10,280
Generally you'll see athletes do
one or two legless pulls into 

1122
01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:15,000
it's. 
Extremely hard to leg lock at 

1123
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:18,640
the bottom of the rope. 
It's and I don't know why it is,

1124
01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:22,080
but it it it is like you have to
have some clearance before you 

1125
01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:23,040
can. 
Lock nothing down there. 

1126
01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:24,840
Yeah. 
It's just really, it's like it's

1127
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:31,400
almost weightless in testing. 
When we tested this, the girls 

1128
01:00:31,400 --> 01:00:33,840
did a version with regular rope 
climbs. 

1129
01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:35,880
We didn't know if Rogue was 
going to approve the cut rope. 

1130
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:39,760
So the guys use the cut rope and
the girls used did regular 

1131
01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:43,480
legless to a true 15 feet. 
The regionals rig is about 14 

1132
01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:46,680
feet. 
They both did 50 double unders 

1133
01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:49,360
and the girls were way behind 
the guys. 

1134
01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:52,760
So I mean, I hope Rison's got 
some behind the scenes footage 

1135
01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:55,600
of this, but like all of us were
just talking right after or 

1136
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:58,400
going to the whiteboard talking 
about different options. 

1137
01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:02,560
If we get the cut ropes, if we 
don't decrease in the double 

1138
01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:05,560
unders help the ton. 
Lindsay retested this workout 

1139
01:01:05,560 --> 01:01:09,160
this week and finished it and 
making that adjustment, you 

1140
01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:13,560
wouldn't think it's much, but 
that that two hundreds is 160 

1141
01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:17,400
total. 
And that 16 rope climb to 12 

1142
01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:21,600
rope climb total is massive for 
the women. 

1143
01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:26,720
And so while I think the women 
will still struggle to finish 

1144
01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:30,120
more than the men, I think 
making that adjustment of both 

1145
01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:33,800
the rope climbs and the double 
unders are really going to help 

1146
01:01:33,800 --> 01:01:36,440
the workout feel the same for 
both sexes, which I think is 

1147
01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:38,320
really important in any 
competition. 

1148
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:41,880
Yeah, this one's this one's 
going to be good. 

1149
01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:50,320
Let's see next one on Sunday, 
athletes only 302418126 of GHD 

1150
01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:56,760
sit ups with a 30 foot hand stag
and walk 210-8642 box jump overs

1151
01:01:56,760 --> 01:02:00,960
and then back another 30 feet 
handstand walk obstacle 42 and 

1152
01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:03,760
36 inch box. 
So I imagine you're doing the 30

1153
01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:08,720
GHD sit ups, handstand walk, 10 
box jump overs, handstand walk 

1154
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:10,960
back to the GHD. 
Correct. 

1155
01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:12,840
Yeah. 
So the the handstand walk is 

1156
01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:15,640
there for your transition. 
And I mean, obviously if you saw

1157
01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:20,040
the the video that we posted 
that Hiller actually made with 

1158
01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:25,680
some clips from that 2018 year 
and some guys like Matt and 

1159
01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:28,280
Brooke and Catherine like doing 
that obstacle. 

1160
01:02:28,320 --> 01:02:32,200
That workout was also a triple G
workout like this one. 

1161
01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:35,320
So it was ring muscle up, 
handstand obstacle and pistol. 

1162
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:40,160
And outside of the Sanctionel 
year, Wadapalooza think they did

1163
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:43,840
it with a power snatch ladder. 
We haven't seen this stage of 

1164
01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:47,920
competition use the obstacle 
since 2018, although it's at the

1165
01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:52,240
games almost every year. 
So I was really, really grateful

1166
01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:55,880
that we were able to use it. 
I have a lot of setups that I'm 

1167
01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:58,040
bringing and then we're able to 
borrow a couple more. 

1168
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:01,320
So we'll have a couple in the 
warm up area, 10 on the floor. 

1169
01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:03,680
And I just think it's, it's one 
of those things that if you're 

1170
01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:07,600
not able to do, if you've been 
to Crucible before, you've done 

1171
01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:11,000
it three or four years. 
But if you're not able to do 

1172
01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:15,120
this, it's I mean, it could, it 
could end some weekends. 

1173
01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:18,120
And this is something I think 
you should be able to do in this

1174
01:03:18,120 --> 01:03:22,280
volume 300 feet with some 
interference here on the hip 

1175
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:25,400
flexors and midline. 
No shoulder interference though.

1176
01:03:25,800 --> 01:03:28,360
Just think there's something you
need to be able to do before you

1177
01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:30,080
get to the. 
Games and I got plenty of time 

1178
01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:32,480
to practice. 
If they can't, like this is the 

1179
01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:37,960
time to every day, every other 
day you try, you figure out how 

1180
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:39,440
to do this. 
Ramp well remember 2 and 

1181
01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:41,720
remember 2 that that reel went 
out a couple weeks ago. 

1182
01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:44,160
So like they've known they've 
had like a month for this. 

1183
01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:46,800
Is there a minimum work 
requirement for this workout? 

1184
01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:49,480
No, the only workout that 
there's a minimum work 

1185
01:03:49,480 --> 01:03:53,880
requirement for is Metal March 
and that is the complete buy in.

1186
01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:56,520
So you have to do the double 
unders and the rope climbs or 

1187
01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:59,400
else your workout is it workout 
is it not your competitions? 

1188
01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:00,920
Yeah, you just can't go to the 
second interval. 

1189
01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:05,760
So yeah, Pop Ox is going to be 
very overlooked. 

1190
01:04:05,760 --> 01:04:10,440
But other than at the Crosser 
Games, I think Water Palooza did

1191
01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:13,480
36 inch last year for the team 
competition. 

1192
01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:18,280
They did 36 and 30, but 42 and 
36, I mean, there's a reason why

1193
01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:19,840
it's called athletes only, 
right? 

1194
01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:22,000
That is more of the handstand 
walk movement. 

1195
01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:25,920
But yeah, I mean, the 30 box 
jump overs for people who have 

1196
01:04:25,920 --> 01:04:28,800
never jumped on a box higher 
than 30 inches is going to be 

1197
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:30,400
different. 
It's going to be different. 

1198
01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:33,400
I have some, I have some video 
footage of some games level 

1199
01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:35,080
athletes doing it and it's 
really funny. 

1200
01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:40,240
Do do they finish the box jump 
overs then skip the last 

1201
01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:42,680
transition? 
They do not, no. 

1202
01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:44,720
So you get the full all ten of 
them, correct? 

1203
01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:47,120
Yeah, OK. 
Yeah, So they're, they're going 

1204
01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:50,240
to handstand walk back and the 
the finish mat will actually be 

1205
01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:52,760
where the GHD is. 
OK, OK. 

1206
01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:55,640
There's a cool workout. 
It's a really cool flow. 

1207
01:04:57,360 --> 01:05:02,960
You know, this is one that like 
people are going to get laughed 

1208
01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:05,120
and you're going to look on the 
floor and you're going to be 

1209
01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:07,920
like, oh, they're on round four 
and that person's still in round

1210
01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:09,800
two. 
And what's what's good about to 

1211
01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:12,920
me about this workout in a 
descending Rep scheme is early 

1212
01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:16,000
on, everyone gets to play. 
So early on you've got the big 

1213
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:18,600
chunks, the GHD and the big 
chunks of box. 

1214
01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:20,960
So a little bit more time in 
between the handstand watcher 

1215
01:05:20,960 --> 01:05:25,400
versus, but late in the workout,
round four, you're getting on 

1216
01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:27,840
for 12 GHD. 
There's the obstacle, you're 

1217
01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:29,960
jumping four times. 
There's the obstacle again, 

1218
01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:32,680
you're getting on for six, 
you're getting on for two. 

1219
01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:36,800
Those last four handstand walk 
passes are so close together 

1220
01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:41,640
that like it lets the people who
are really good at it show it at

1221
01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:43,800
the end. 
And the people who can't do it 

1222
01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:46,840
at all are just kind of like, 
hey, we got to play for the 

1223
01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:50,320
first 3 rounds. 
Interesting and testing. 

1224
01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:53,920
I knew all four of them would 
destroy this workout. 

1225
01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:57,320
I didn't think all four of them 
would go unbroken on everything.

1226
01:05:57,320 --> 01:05:59,320
So no one failed a handstand 
walk. 

1227
01:05:59,920 --> 01:06:05,200
Everyone went smooth and fast. 
They actually were racing like I

1228
01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:08,920
mean Angelo went like 830, 
Taylor was around 9 minutes, 

1229
01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:11,320
Molly and Lindsay were around 
were sub 10. 

1230
01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:15,240
So like this 13 minute cap for 
some is going to be very 

1231
01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:17,520
generous for others is going to 
be very aggressive. 

1232
01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:19,080
And that's what we need on 
Sunday. 

1233
01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:21,760
Like we need, we need some crazy
swings. 

1234
01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:25,480
And while I think most of the 
events have swings built in 

1235
01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:28,160
every single workout because 
something specific is being 

1236
01:06:28,160 --> 01:06:31,760
tested, that I think this one 
and then the last one with the 

1237
01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:37,080
heavy sandbag is really going to
help some people or hurt some 

1238
01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:39,120
people's chances at a Games bid 
for sure. 

1239
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:42,440
Yeah, moving on to the final 
workout. 

1240
01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:52,640
Bag 9 9 Sandbag cleans 12 Ring 
Muscle UPS 1512122118 Cal Echo 

1241
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:59,400
Rower 1512 Bar Muscle UPS 9 
Sandbag Cleans AT200/150. 

1242
01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:02,160
This is my favorite workout I 
bet. 

1243
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:09,000
You know, we can, you know, we 
could dig into all the movement 

1244
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:11,720
selection and the movement 
patterns and, and all that kind 

1245
01:07:11,720 --> 01:07:15,000
of stuff. 
But at the end of the day, like 

1246
01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:19,560
you need 2 workouts. 
I think they're limited by just 

1247
01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:21,520
capacity. 
And you have that with the yoke 

1248
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:23,880
and with the hundreds. 
You need a couple workouts that 

1249
01:07:23,880 --> 01:07:25,840
are limited by something body 
weight. 

1250
01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:28,320
You have that with the cut rope 
and with the hands and wall. 

1251
01:07:28,720 --> 01:07:30,960
And then you need a couple 
workouts that are limited by the

1252
01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:33,240
weight lifting component. 
That doesn't mean that it has to

1253
01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:36,720
be super heavy or not, but it 
just that needs to be the thing 

1254
01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:40,480
that separates. 
And while 30 and 24 muscle UPS 

1255
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:43,840
probably will cause some 
separation, this workout is 

1256
01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:46,600
about the back. 
And for a lot of people that 

1257
01:07:46,600 --> 01:07:48,480
really good technically with the
barbell. 

1258
01:07:48,680 --> 01:07:51,720
But when you have to just move 
something weird over and over 

1259
01:07:51,720 --> 01:07:57,040
again, it just destroys you. 
So this is the most compelling 

1260
01:07:57,760 --> 01:08:01,560
like discrepancy of testing 
data. 

1261
01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:06,760
Taylor did this workout. 
He went touch and go on the 1st 

1262
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:11,560
9 unbroken on muscle UPS. 
Rode like a 1200 which I'll get 

1263
01:08:11,560 --> 01:08:16,600
to which is really important. 
Does sixth touch and go with a 

1264
01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:19,960
10 foot transition after each 3 
so 3? 

1265
01:08:19,960 --> 01:08:22,040
Held. 
Carry three touch and go carry 

1266
01:08:22,520 --> 01:08:26,680
does 3 singles at the end of the
workout, goes low fours. 

1267
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:32,760
OK, Angelo does it, doing the 
same thing, executing it the 

1268
01:08:32,760 --> 01:08:35,600
same way, essentially just 
having to do singles on the bag 

1269
01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:40,279
and goes 2 minutes slower, so 2,
so 2 minutes slower. 

1270
01:08:40,279 --> 01:08:43,319
So like 4 1/2 and 6 1/2, which 
call it that, whatever. 

1271
01:08:44,359 --> 01:08:47,520
Molly and Lindsay do it. 
They're a little bit closer 

1272
01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:50,560
together, but we made some 
adjustments to the bar muscle 

1273
01:08:50,560 --> 01:08:52,560
UPS. 
Originally they did fifteens and

1274
01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:55,680
the back half was just really 
hard and I was like, OK, we need

1275
01:08:55,680 --> 01:08:57,479
to adjust that. 
Like some workouts they can do 

1276
01:08:57,479 --> 01:08:59,479
the same, but this one they 
probably need to do 12. 

1277
01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:06,479
Alex Gazan tested it for me. 
Didn't know she was testing a 

1278
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:08,840
workout like for that she 
thought it was for Crucible. 

1279
01:09:10,040 --> 01:09:15,439
She did the first nine touch and
go, did the muscle UPS unbroken.

1280
01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:20,080
Rode the same pace as Taylor, 
1200 for her 18. 

1281
01:09:20,720 --> 01:09:28,160
Did singles, did singles on the 
bag and barely beat, barely beat

1282
01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:30,920
Taylor. 
Colton was right around Taylor's

1283
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:35,439
time doing similar like touch 
and go at 1st and then having to

1284
01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:38,240
do singles in it. 
So Taylor by far handled the bag

1285
01:09:38,240 --> 01:09:41,160
better than anyone. 
But other than the yoke, I think

1286
01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:43,840
the most misunderstood part of 
this workout is the row, and 

1287
01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:46,640
I'll explain. 
The row only matters for the 

1288
01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:48,800
best. 
And in that description I just 

1289
01:09:48,800 --> 01:09:53,200
gave you, if you can do the bag 
really, really well and you're 

1290
01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:57,080
really good at muscle UPS, how 
hard can you row and still jump 

1291
01:09:57,080 --> 01:09:58,560
up and do that back half 
unbroken? 

1292
01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:01,960
That's a that is going that will
come into play for a lot of 

1293
01:10:01,960 --> 01:10:03,640
people who are similar on the 
back. 

1294
01:10:03,640 --> 01:10:09,160
So because Alex got off 1520 
seconds on the rower, she was 

1295
01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:14,240
able to essentially wipe that 
away on the back half sandbag 

1296
01:10:14,240 --> 01:10:17,200
having to do singles. 
And I think that's a really, 

1297
01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:21,520
really interesting part of the 
workout is that there's some 

1298
01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:24,880
gamesmanship, even though it's a
fast workout, like 9 minutes for

1299
01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:27,560
some is they're going to be 
hoping that the cat hits just 

1300
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:29,080
because they're falling apart 
with the bag. 

1301
01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:35,200
But in a workout that's so 
short, I think there's a lot of 

1302
01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:37,920
strategy. 
But at the end of the day, you 

1303
01:10:37,960 --> 01:10:40,360
either have the option to go 
touch and go or you don't. 

1304
01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:44,880
And that already is going to put
you in a deficit because if the 

1305
01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:48,200
person next to you is going 
touch and go, the amount of time

1306
01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:52,120
that you are passing them on, 
it's really hard to make up on 

1307
01:10:52,120 --> 01:10:54,960
the other two movements unless 
someone just gets on the road 

1308
01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:57,040
and they're like, hey, I'm just 
going to recover on the road and

1309
01:10:57,040 --> 01:10:59,080
I'm going to be on it for 90 
seconds and then I'm going to 

1310
01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:00,760
rest a lot before the muscle 
UPS. 

1311
01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:03,120
Like do these people really 
matter anyway? 

1312
01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:06,200
Probably not. 
Like this workout, this finale 

1313
01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:09,440
is written for the people who 
are going to go or not go. 

1314
01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:14,000
And then it's like I don't know 
what she can do on the bag or I 

1315
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:15,320
don't know what he can do on the
bag. 

1316
01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:17,400
I'm going to take a break on the
rings. 

1317
01:11:17,400 --> 01:11:19,960
Oh well she is too. 
OK, well then who can get the 9 

1318
01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:23,160
reps done like it's called bag 9
because it's all going to come. 

1319
01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:25,480
Down to the last. 
You know, you know who I would 

1320
01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:29,240
have loved to see this do this 
work out and if if you we could 

1321
01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:32,880
possibly reach out to him. 
I don't know if he is reach out 

1322
01:11:32,880 --> 01:11:38,760
able, but is Bronislaw Linkowitz
'cause that is a guy that would 

1323
01:11:38,760 --> 01:11:44,040
touch and go the nine and then 
go 654 on the rings, go 1200 on 

1324
01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:48,240
the row and then nine and six on
the bar muscle UPS. 

1325
01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:52,320
But then he would touch and go 
the entire 9 on the second-half 

1326
01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:55,760
and end up beating everybody. 
And I mean and Taylor. 

1327
01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:57,120
Taylor might be too fit. 
No, no. 

1328
01:11:57,680 --> 01:12:00,440
No, no I'm not. 
Talking about the fittest in the

1329
01:12:00,440 --> 01:12:04,880
world this field. 
I dude, I think Taylor's time 

1330
01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:08,800
and Colton's time on this 
because they are able to touch 

1331
01:12:08,800 --> 01:12:14,040
and go in the bag and even Alex 
too because there's not a lot of

1332
01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:17,800
females that are going to touch 
and go and much less like at the

1333
01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:20,160
end. 
Like I watch Taylor do it. 

1334
01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:22,320
I talked to Alex after she did 
it. 

1335
01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:25,840
It's like, dude, that really 
hurts like lactic. 

1336
01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:29,840
Like if you can go that fast, I 
mean, the arms just get no 

1337
01:12:29,840 --> 01:12:32,240
reprieve. 
You're wrestling the bag, you're

1338
01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:35,280
pulling, you're hanging, you're 
pulling on the rower again. 

1339
01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:39,640
But she's like at the end, it's 
just like, it's like meltdown, 

1340
01:12:39,720 --> 01:12:41,280
right? 
Like like everything shutting 

1341
01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:45,240
off on those last few sandbag 
cleans because you're you're 

1342
01:12:45,240 --> 01:12:50,800
going so fast and it's such a 
powerful workout that it hurts. 

1343
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:52,640
If you can make it hurt, it 
really hurts. 

1344
01:12:52,640 --> 01:12:54,080
And some people just can't make 
it hurt. 

1345
01:12:55,360 --> 01:12:58,560
So, and there's going to be a 
game spot on the line, right? 

1346
01:12:58,800 --> 01:13:03,680
For some, I I mean the teams are
doing synchronized ring and bar 

1347
01:13:03,680 --> 01:13:05,680
muscle up, which is is pretty 
cool. 

1348
01:13:05,680 --> 01:13:08,040
I mean, I think Water Palooza 
did it first and then Adrian 

1349
01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:11,240
programmed it with the thrusters
that year in Orlando. 

1350
01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:14,160
And this workout was bar all 
along. 

1351
01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:19,240
And I just got really frustrated
that I thought we were going to 

1352
01:13:19,240 --> 01:13:21,160
be the only people not doing 
ring muscle ups. 

1353
01:13:21,160 --> 01:13:23,600
And it turns out everyone's 
doing bar muscle UPS this year. 

1354
01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:27,600
Not they were like Wilson had 
mentioned it early on like we 

1355
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:30,240
could do both. 
And I was like, I don't know, 

1356
01:13:30,240 --> 01:13:32,840
that seems kind of it's just not
like me to do it. 

1357
01:13:33,400 --> 01:13:36,320
And I ended up coming back to 
him and being like, let's do it.

1358
01:13:36,480 --> 01:13:39,880
And what's important is where 
the rings are Like at the 

1359
01:13:39,880 --> 01:13:42,480
beginning, it still gives the 
opportunity for people to go 

1360
01:13:42,480 --> 01:13:44,200
unbroken if they're really good 
on the rings. 

1361
01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:46,560
And then on the back half, 
they're doing the easier bar 

1362
01:13:46,560 --> 01:13:49,160
muscle up, which kind of still 
pushes intensity. 

1363
01:13:49,160 --> 01:13:51,160
And I think that's really 
important because while this 

1364
01:13:51,160 --> 01:13:55,680
isn't A2 to three minute Sprint,
it is still a power output fast 

1365
01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:57,360
workout. 
Like again, you know the winning

1366
01:13:57,360 --> 01:13:59,640
times are going to be sub five 
and they're going to be people 

1367
01:13:59,640 --> 01:14:02,920
that probably get capped. 
So in a 9 minute workout, having

1368
01:14:02,920 --> 01:14:06,040
people beat you by 3 or 4 
minutes I think is is pretty 

1369
01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:09,640
cool. 
And that hearing you talk like 

1370
01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:14,040
if, if, if I'm going to go into 
syndicate, I'm watching this 

1371
01:14:14,040 --> 01:14:14,960
right. 
I'm listening to what you're 

1372
01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:19,640
saying and hearing that to be 
fast, you have to go unbroken. 

1373
01:14:23,320 --> 01:14:25,520
On the bag, on the bag and on 
the bag of the. 

1374
01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:29,160
Bag. 
Like I think Angelo's time. 

1375
01:14:29,640 --> 01:14:32,920
Like I think his time of around 
like 6 minutes is, is a good 

1376
01:14:32,920 --> 01:14:35,800
time, a good time because he 
wasn't messing around. 

1377
01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:39,080
He was doing singles on the bag,
but he wasn't just standing 

1378
01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:42,840
there with hands on knees. 
He's awesome at muscle UPS, 

1379
01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:47,840
which is still important, right?
Like how long is your break 

1380
01:14:47,840 --> 01:14:50,280
after the row? 
Are you breaking 15 seconds? 

1381
01:14:50,280 --> 01:14:52,680
Are you like stepping right to 
the bar and jumping off? 

1382
01:14:53,080 --> 01:14:59,560
So I think that Taylor and Alex 
and like Colton's times are 

1383
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:03,720
like, hey, if I need to win this
workout, like. 

1384
01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:06,880
I got to beat them. 
I need to go faster than IMAM. 

1385
01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:09,240
Look at the workout. 
One minute, 2 minute, three 

1386
01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:10,880
minute, 4 minute, 5 minute, 
like. 

1387
01:15:10,880 --> 01:15:13,000
And that's really impressive 
when you think about it, that 

1388
01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:19,960
they were like sub 4:30. 
But again, yeah, like if you 

1389
01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:24,880
can, you even get like the first
three touch and go and then go 

1390
01:15:24,880 --> 01:15:27,640
to singles. 
Like you make up so much time 

1391
01:15:27,640 --> 01:15:30,960
because the 200 and 150 is not 
like the one 5100, right? 

1392
01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:33,160
It's just it takes so much more 
out of you. 

1393
01:15:33,160 --> 01:15:37,200
Every Rep but Taylor's been 
cycling sandbags like since I've

1394
01:15:37,200 --> 01:15:39,640
met him. 
Like he was sending me videos 

1395
01:15:39,640 --> 01:15:43,800
doing 200 LB box step UPS like 
four or five years ago. 

1396
01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:46,760
Like, I just think that some 
people are just really, really 

1397
01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:50,520
good at odd objects and it's 
just a completely different 

1398
01:15:50,520 --> 01:15:53,840
story than a a barbell. 
Yeah, I'm just thinking like if 

1399
01:15:53,840 --> 01:15:58,480
you're 3rd place or say 4th and 
it's close, like you're hearing 

1400
01:15:58,480 --> 01:16:01,400
this like I I have to try it, 
right. 

1401
01:16:01,400 --> 01:16:03,720
Like you can't, you can't do 
Angelo and think that 6 minutes 

1402
01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:05,280
is going to going to get it for 
you. 

1403
01:16:05,880 --> 01:16:08,840
Like you've got to take that 
risk of, of doing it. 

1404
01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:11,160
And what is that? 
Does that blow up in the last 

1405
01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:13,600
those last 9? 
But you got time to do it. 

1406
01:16:13,920 --> 01:16:16,120
You got time to play with it. 
And. 

1407
01:16:17,640 --> 01:16:20,960
I think it's going to be this. 
It's funny because it feels like

1408
01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:25,520
maybe not, maybe other than the 
hundreds, but the last workout 

1409
01:16:25,520 --> 01:16:30,680
is almost the most strategic in 
it and who executes their game 

1410
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:32,840
plan the best. 
I just think we'll see a lot of 

1411
01:16:32,840 --> 01:16:36,760
different approaches. 
Yeah, I think that I think that 

1412
01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:42,040
metal March and athletes only 
are very execution oriented and 

1413
01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:44,080
like can't fly too close to the 
sun. 

1414
01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:49,640
Like if I, if I'm not careful, 
right and I fail a rope climb, 

1415
01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:52,600
I'm done. 
Like I'm like I'll take a I'll 

1416
01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:55,560
end up taking a 30th. 
Or if I go a little too soon on 

1417
01:16:55,560 --> 01:16:58,280
a handstand walk and I just, it 
gets in my head all right, I've 

1418
01:16:58,280 --> 01:17:01,120
already missed one. 
And then it it just becomes like

1419
01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:04,160
a snowball effect. 
I think John is right in that 

1420
01:17:04,440 --> 01:17:06,680
there is a ton of fitness. 
Here. 

1421
01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:11,600
There's just levels of fitness, 
kind of like the grids, whereas 

1422
01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:14,880
a couple of the other workouts 
are either you got it or you 

1423
01:17:14,880 --> 01:17:19,640
don't. 
And I do like the the strength 

1424
01:17:19,640 --> 01:17:21,520
pieces, the first workout and 
the last one. 

1425
01:17:22,040 --> 01:17:24,080
Right. 
So I, you know, if you think 

1426
01:17:24,080 --> 01:17:29,640
about the leaderboard shifting, 
I could see, yeah, you see the 

1427
01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:34,880
geez, you know, in the Olivia 
curse sitter's up top early on, 

1428
01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:38,000
dip down a little bit and they 
come back strong in the final 

1429
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:39,320
one. 
And that's their chance to come 

1430
01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:41,920
come back and and make it. 
Dude, I think it's more of like 

1431
01:17:42,040 --> 01:17:45,080
a you, you, you see, it's well, 
I don't. 

1432
01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:48,320
I don't think so guys. 
If if like a lactic acid type 

1433
01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:51,120
feeling at the end of it, if 
that's truly what it brings, 

1434
01:17:51,200 --> 01:17:55,080
dude, he ain't about that life. 
I think more like. 

1435
01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:57,080
AI don't think D like those guys
on the. 

1436
01:17:57,120 --> 01:18:00,000
Border like come back whenever 
he touched and go the sandbags 

1437
01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:02,080
at regionals and made his and 
got his ticket. 

1438
01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:05,600
That's that's kind of what I'm 
thinking like somebody who, who 

1439
01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:08,480
you don't even see coming and 
they were the only one able to 

1440
01:18:08,480 --> 01:18:11,640
do it or they did it the best 
and then they jumped 5 spots and

1441
01:18:11,640 --> 01:18:14,360
got. 
That and I don't even know if 

1442
01:18:14,360 --> 01:18:16,320
he'd want to put it out there. 
I mean, I think it would crush 

1443
01:18:16,320 --> 01:18:17,880
he'd put it on his his own 
YouTube. 

1444
01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:22,560
But if Bryson has Taylor doing 
this workout, like, you know, 

1445
01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:26,320
that video of Colton doing doing
friendly Fran was just awesome 

1446
01:18:26,320 --> 01:18:29,080
to watch, like leading up to 
this workout. 

1447
01:18:29,080 --> 01:18:31,080
Like if he's got that footage 
and he puts it out, I mean, 

1448
01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:34,520
that's cool. 
Like that's cool even to put out

1449
01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:37,760
like the first nine sandbag 
clean just so people can watch 

1450
01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:40,840
that movement and try to dissect
it because there's there's a, a 

1451
01:18:40,840 --> 01:18:42,280
technique to it, right? 
Like. 

1452
01:18:43,200 --> 01:18:46,640
He's able to do it because of 
timing and and you know, you 

1453
01:18:46,640 --> 01:18:50,000
mishandle that that 200 and it 
just pushes you over so. 

1454
01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:53,000
I like also that you give him 
the option to be able to do 

1455
01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:55,800
touch and go. 
I feel like so often now you 

1456
01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:56,320
don't. 
You're not. 

1457
01:18:56,320 --> 01:18:59,080
Allowed to drop. 
Yeah, that was something too. 

1458
01:18:59,080 --> 01:19:03,520
That was interesting. 
Like I like going over the 

1459
01:19:03,520 --> 01:19:06,520
shoulder, especially if people 
don't bail to the side and like 

1460
01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:09,000
kind of throw it off their bicep
and their hips aren't open at 

1461
01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:10,840
the top. 
Like people who do it right. 

1462
01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:13,920
I think it looks really good and
I think sometimes for singles 

1463
01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:18,320
that annoying not being able to 
go touch and go is is can be a 

1464
01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:21,920
good thing based on the workout 
but in this workout specifically

1465
01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:24,880
you they need to have. 
That option. 

1466
01:19:25,240 --> 01:19:30,120
Of hey, if it was mandated 
singles, it really would like, 

1467
01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:33,000
hey, it's the muscle ups are 
really important. 

1468
01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:35,760
Well, we already have two 
workouts that the gymnastics are

1469
01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:38,320
really, really important. 
And then the hundreds, the 

1470
01:19:38,320 --> 01:19:40,120
burpees and toast bar are still 
really important. 

1471
01:19:40,280 --> 01:19:44,160
So to me, you don't let them go 
touch and go and it kind of 

1472
01:19:44,160 --> 01:19:46,160
starts to swing the bias of the 
whole program. 

1473
01:19:46,440 --> 01:19:49,720
So that might be a little too 
deep, but I think that allowing 

1474
01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:52,680
them to go touch and go, the 
workout is supposed to be 

1475
01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:55,680
limited by the weightlifting 
component. 

1476
01:19:55,680 --> 01:19:57,280
I think that's this is the right
move. 

1477
01:19:58,120 --> 01:20:00,280
Yeah. 
What I like about all this is 

1478
01:20:00,280 --> 01:20:02,560
that you've essentially written 
all my prop bets for me, so I 

1479
01:20:02,560 --> 01:20:05,760
appreciate that with giving us 
the athlete times. 

1480
01:20:05,800 --> 01:20:09,440
Thank you. 
Well, well, and and how many 

1481
01:20:09,440 --> 01:20:11,920
athletes go touch and go all 
nine of the first ones? 

1482
01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:17,760
Or does the first guy off the is
the fastest time off the bike 

1483
01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:23,200
win a heat or lose every heat? 
Dude, I think, I think with with

1484
01:20:23,200 --> 01:20:26,360
bag 9, you could have like like 
so many prop bets. 

1485
01:20:26,600 --> 01:20:30,960
How many how many people go on 
broken on both set of muscle 

1486
01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:32,800
UPS? 
Like not many are doing that, 

1487
01:20:32,800 --> 01:20:35,800
but the the ones who are the 
ones that need to win it. 

1488
01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:40,120
Like if Luke's in that position,
he's doing it, you know, like 

1489
01:20:40,120 --> 01:20:43,800
we've seen him on finales just 
completely go after, especially 

1490
01:20:43,800 --> 01:20:45,000
when there's muscle UPS 
involved. 

1491
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:47,560
Like he did it last year at 
semis where he crushed the bike 

1492
01:20:47,880 --> 01:20:51,000
and then jumped up on the rings.
We saw it at the classic. 

1493
01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:54,920
Like he's someone I think over. 
I'm like, if that dude can touch

1494
01:20:54,920 --> 01:20:58,320
and go the 200, like that's a 
guy that that is going to be in 

1495
01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:01,560
it till the very end. 
Or even like winning time sub 4 

1496
01:21:01,560 --> 01:21:07,040
minutes 4 to 4 to 4/24/20 to 
44440 to 5:00. 

1497
01:21:07,840 --> 01:21:09,200
That's your. 
That's your. 

1498
01:21:09,480 --> 01:21:12,240
That's your toll at the end of 
at the end of the competition 

1499
01:21:12,240 --> 01:21:15,000
weekend with with the game day 
transitions. 

1500
01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:18,680
I think 4 sub 4:30 is a really 
good profit for both males and 

1501
01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:21,960
females. 
If you were going to predict 

1502
01:21:22,680 --> 01:21:25,840
which workouts most correlated 
to the finals. 

1503
01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:30,280
Spins favorite thing. 
Yeah, I I want it to be the one 

1504
01:21:30,280 --> 01:21:31,880
hundreds, but I think it's the 
finale. 

1505
01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:36,000
I think so too, because you're 
just going to see people fall 

1506
01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:37,920
apart in it. 
Like you're going to see people 

1507
01:21:37,920 --> 01:21:40,600
go for it and then they can't do
it, and then you'll see people 

1508
01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:44,040
go for it and they can do it. 
And that eventually will end up 

1509
01:21:44,120 --> 01:21:49,600
who's who lies where. 
Well, you know they all three of

1510
01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:51,720
the movements matter. 
Even the row in the middle 

1511
01:21:51,720 --> 01:21:55,000
matters for the best because 
it's like I need to beat him 

1512
01:21:55,000 --> 01:21:58,000
back to the bag and I know he's 
going unbroken labarre muscle 

1513
01:21:58,000 --> 01:21:59,360
up. 
So the only way I can get to the

1514
01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:01,840
back faster than him is if I 
choose to row a little bit 

1515
01:22:01,840 --> 01:22:04,440
harder. 
So while all three movements 

1516
01:22:04,440 --> 01:22:09,080
matter, it comes down to the bag
and for the ones that all three 

1517
01:22:09,080 --> 01:22:10,800
movements matter, it's a fitness
test. 

1518
01:22:10,800 --> 01:22:15,000
It's not just a like like a one 
thing type test. 

1519
01:22:16,120 --> 01:22:18,560
I kind of wanted. 
I would love it to be the one 

1520
01:22:18,560 --> 01:22:23,160
hundreds because I just think 
that that just that's like 

1521
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:25,920
really classic CrossFit, but I'm
probably just a little bit 

1522
01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:27,920
biased to the longer time 
domain, so. 

1523
01:22:28,920 --> 01:22:33,400
The question I have about all 
this is like, so you've been, 

1524
01:22:33,440 --> 01:22:35,280
you've been doing CrossFit a 
long time, you've been 

1525
01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:38,000
programming a long time, you've 
run your own events. 

1526
01:22:40,120 --> 01:22:43,640
I guess what's the emotion feel 
like to now be programming for a

1527
01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:46,200
qualifying spot? 
2 qualifying spots for the 

1528
01:22:46,200 --> 01:22:50,720
Games. 
No, I mean it's it really is a 

1529
01:22:50,720 --> 01:22:54,520
dream come true. 
Like I like for years probably 

1530
01:22:54,520 --> 01:22:56,400
have just been like, man, I just
want that chance. 

1531
01:22:56,400 --> 01:22:59,000
I just want that opportunity. 
Like I don't I'm I'm a nobody. 

1532
01:22:59,000 --> 01:23:00,400
I don't really know how to go 
about that. 

1533
01:23:01,360 --> 01:23:05,000
And, you know, most times Dave 
is programming everything or, 

1534
01:23:05,040 --> 01:23:07,480
you know, occasionally some 
people get to do their own 

1535
01:23:07,480 --> 01:23:08,960
thing. 
Like the sanctionals here, you 

1536
01:23:08,960 --> 01:23:10,960
know, it's like, wow, they all 
get to kind of put their own 

1537
01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:14,360
spin on everything. 
But I also believe that it's a 

1538
01:23:15,240 --> 01:23:19,360
it's a really, really like 
serious responsibility. 

1539
01:23:19,680 --> 01:23:24,800
And I think that if you're 
entering into it with any of 

1540
01:23:24,800 --> 01:23:29,520
like your own personal motives, 
or if you're doing it just 

1541
01:23:29,520 --> 01:23:32,520
because you're doing what you 
like or you're not thinking 

1542
01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:35,800
about, hey, my job here is to 
get the right to people to cross

1543
01:23:35,800 --> 01:23:36,520
with you. 
So that's it. 

1544
01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:41,120
So unless you're approaching it 
like that, I mean, I take it 

1545
01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:43,640
very serious. 
I mean, for six months, all I've

1546
01:23:43,640 --> 01:23:46,120
thought about is this, right? 
Like I think about other 

1547
01:23:46,120 --> 01:23:49,360
workouts too, but I'm a simple 
person, right? 

1548
01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:51,640
I I have my faith, I have my 
family. 

1549
01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:54,640
I love to train, I love to coach
people and I love to write 

1550
01:23:54,640 --> 01:23:55,840
workouts. 
And that's really it. 

1551
01:23:56,080 --> 01:23:59,480
Like, so I am, I do this all the
time. 

1552
01:23:59,480 --> 01:24:01,480
This is this is what I love to 
do. 

1553
01:24:01,640 --> 01:24:09,320
So I know I get passionate and 
ramble about it, but being this 

1554
01:24:09,320 --> 01:24:14,000
come together like it has Wilson
trusting me with that job to do 

1555
01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:19,320
it. 
I mean, yeah, so I got to, I got

1556
01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:21,000
to go out swinging, right? 
Make it work. 

1557
01:24:21,480 --> 01:24:26,120
The The funny thing leading up 
to when we found out about the 

1558
01:24:26,120 --> 01:24:28,600
workouts we had like this 
meeting scheduled for Syndicate 

1559
01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:30,440
are. 
We supposed to say this? 

1560
01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:32,880
Yeah, I mean we're working the 
event. 

1561
01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:36,200
It's fine, but it's it's more 
about the lead in so like JRS 

1562
01:24:36,840 --> 01:24:40,840
even through text message like 
very stoic and I think you text 

1563
01:24:40,840 --> 01:24:42,960
me three times like are you 
stoked for tonight? 

1564
01:24:42,960 --> 01:24:45,760
Like you ready to? 
Find out about these workouts. 

1565
01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:48,840
And I was like, a lot of people 
wouldn't catch like how excited 

1566
01:24:48,840 --> 01:24:51,000
you were in that moment. 
I knew it was a big deal. 

1567
01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:55,920
I've been, yeah, I've, I've been
like, it's been, it's been tough

1568
01:24:56,240 --> 01:24:59,480
to just not like, you know, I 
want everyone to see him 

1569
01:24:59,480 --> 01:25:00,480
because, you know, you're proud 
of it. 

1570
01:25:00,480 --> 01:25:04,200
But then also too, you're ready 
for people to like or not like 

1571
01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:05,600
them. 
And liking or not liking them 

1572
01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:06,840
doesn't mean they're not a good 
test. 

1573
01:25:06,840 --> 01:25:09,000
It just means it's what people 
like and that's it's in. 

1574
01:25:09,320 --> 01:25:10,760
It's an art, just like a 
painting. 

1575
01:25:11,040 --> 01:25:13,160
All right. 
We can agree that it might be 

1576
01:25:13,160 --> 01:25:15,560
some people's cup of tea and 
some people might think it's 

1577
01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:19,360
ugly, you know, so I do. 
I do want to say one thing while

1578
01:25:19,360 --> 01:25:21,360
I'm thinking about it. 
Or Wilson's going to not be 

1579
01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:23,840
happy with me. 
Don't forget everybody. 

1580
01:25:25,120 --> 01:25:28,000
Isabel against John Young. 
Yes. 

1581
01:25:28,520 --> 01:25:31,000
Saturday metal March against 
Taylor Self. 

1582
01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:36,640
Sunday, Sunday, athletes 
showcase against really whoever 

1583
01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:39,720
wants it. 
I know Austin's in the mix. 

1584
01:25:40,360 --> 01:25:43,560
I know Taylor's in the mix. 
Angelo's supposed to be in the 

1585
01:25:43,560 --> 01:25:46,560
mix. 
They're doing athletes only, 

1586
01:25:46,600 --> 01:25:47,640
right? 
So they're doing the handstand 

1587
01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:51,760
walk workout. 500 bucks for the 
winner on Saturday, 500 bucks 

1588
01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:54,920
for the winner on Sunday. 
Shoot, I'll put up. 

1589
01:25:54,960 --> 01:25:57,360
And a free JY barbell shirt for 
the OH. 

1590
01:25:57,360 --> 01:25:59,000
Heavy. 
Isabel. 

1591
01:25:59,360 --> 01:26:02,440
No, no, I'll, I'll put up, I'll 
put up 500 on Friday too. 

1592
01:26:02,440 --> 01:26:04,200
So I'll put up 500 for Heavy 
Isabel. 

1593
01:26:04,640 --> 01:26:08,560
So John, you got to we can take 
some BBC 157 and let's do it. 

1594
01:26:11,240 --> 01:26:13,280
If you are interested in 
competing, there is a limit of a

1595
01:26:13,280 --> 01:26:14,840
response, right? 
We got 10 lanes. 

1596
01:26:14,840 --> 01:26:20,400
We would love to have 10 people 
do all three of those compete at

1597
01:26:20,400 --> 01:26:23,720
syndicatecrown.com. 
That's compete at 

1598
01:26:24,040 --> 01:26:26,640
syndicatecrown.com. 
You do have to sign up on 

1599
01:26:26,640 --> 01:26:30,360
competition Corner and sign the 
waiver so that you can get out 

1600
01:26:30,360 --> 01:26:32,880
there on the floor. 
But I put out a text message 

1601
01:26:32,880 --> 01:26:36,280
yesterday to like 8 or 9 coaches
that all have athletes who have 

1602
01:26:36,280 --> 01:26:38,120
already qualified for the games 
that are in the East. 

1603
01:26:38,120 --> 01:26:40,400
And I'm like, hey, if they're 
going to be here fulfilling 

1604
01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:45,160
sponsorship obligations, if if 
they're going to be, if they're 

1605
01:26:45,160 --> 01:26:48,320
going to be just hanging out 
watching someone else, like, 

1606
01:26:48,920 --> 01:26:50,400
hey, do any of these look fun to
you? 

1607
01:26:50,400 --> 01:26:53,920
Like come do it. 
It's heavy Isabel, it's metal 

1608
01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:58,320
March and it's athletes only. 
So if if you if you want to just

1609
01:26:58,400 --> 01:27:01,640
get a workout in because you're 
trying to, she'll keep your 

1610
01:27:01,640 --> 01:27:03,920
training up and you want to do 
something fun and you want to 

1611
01:27:03,920 --> 01:27:06,480
set a time to beat. 
Like I see Danielle comment, 

1612
01:27:06,800 --> 01:27:09,000
like I would love for her to 
come and do athletes only 

1613
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:10,760
because I don't know that anyone
would beat her time. 

1614
01:27:11,400 --> 01:27:15,040
Oh man, it would be cool to see 
something like that just 

1615
01:27:15,120 --> 01:27:18,000
actually go out there and set a 
time to beat before the athletes

1616
01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:18,920
actually do it. 
So. 

1617
01:27:18,920 --> 01:27:22,560
The thing that's crazy is, I 
mean like just like recapping it

1618
01:27:22,560 --> 01:27:26,920
all, every single day you will 
see one event where athletes are

1619
01:27:26,920 --> 01:27:29,720
doing it that aren't part of the
competition. 

1620
01:27:29,720 --> 01:27:32,360
You'll be able to seize times 
that they get, but particularly 

1621
01:27:32,360 --> 01:27:34,760
on Athletes Only, I think this 
would be the first time we've 

1622
01:27:34,760 --> 01:27:39,040
seen games level athletes do a 
workout, particularly with 

1623
01:27:39,040 --> 01:27:42,280
Austin on Athletes only where 
they're not part of the 

1624
01:27:42,280 --> 01:27:43,800
competition. 
They're sort of setting the 

1625
01:27:43,800 --> 01:27:45,160
stage for what's about to 
happen. 

1626
01:27:45,200 --> 01:27:48,600
It has no implications on the 
competition and it'll be a 

1627
01:27:48,600 --> 01:27:51,240
really cool showcase. 
Like I, I think it's really cool

1628
01:27:51,240 --> 01:27:52,960
that we're doing 1:00 every 
single day. 

1629
01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:56,040
Yeah, and I know it's right 
before the women's first heat, 

1630
01:27:56,600 --> 01:27:59,040
but if you're not in the women's
first heat and you're a male and

1631
01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:01,600
you're not going to watch Taylor
do Metal March, you're insane. 

1632
01:28:01,840 --> 01:28:06,320
Like if if you want to see like,
OK, this is where I need to be 

1633
01:28:06,320 --> 01:28:08,960
at these times. 
Like, dude, that's like, that's 

1634
01:28:08,960 --> 01:28:10,400
like giving you a study guide 
right there. 

1635
01:28:10,680 --> 01:28:16,600
So yeah, if Austin does athletes
only like yeah, for sure. 

1636
01:28:17,120 --> 01:28:20,440
So buy tickets and show up. 
I know, like, I'm incredibly 

1637
01:28:20,440 --> 01:28:22,360
excited about this competition, 
but I think you're going to be 

1638
01:28:22,360 --> 01:28:23,600
missing a hell of a show if you 
don't keep. 

1639
01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:25,920
Everybody's going to be there. 
I'll be there. 

1640
01:28:25,920 --> 01:28:27,840
Actually, I'll have the RV 
there. 

1641
01:28:27,840 --> 01:28:29,880
It's going to be great. 
Caleb will be there. 

1642
01:28:29,880 --> 01:28:31,400
Sea Beaver. 
Caleb. 

1643
01:28:32,120 --> 01:28:34,840
Yeah. 
So he's going to learn about 

1644
01:28:34,840 --> 01:28:36,120
CrossFit. 
That's be. 

1645
01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:37,680
Great. 
No, he won't. 

1646
01:28:39,080 --> 01:28:41,120
Fair enough. 
Thank you Jr. 

1647
01:28:41,880 --> 01:28:43,480
Yeah. 
Thanks so much for having me on 

1648
01:28:43,480 --> 01:28:45,360
guys, I appreciate it. 
I appreciate it they. 

1649
01:28:45,360 --> 01:28:49,280
Are we're excited. 
I hope me and Tyler do not let 

1650
01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:50,760
you down. 
You won't. 

1651
01:28:51,320 --> 01:28:54,280
It's been, you know, he's doing 
whatever Spin does, but we're 

1652
01:28:54,320 --> 01:28:55,960
we're in it. 
I'll. 

1653
01:28:56,000 --> 01:28:56,720
Be there man. 
I'll be. 

1654
01:28:56,720 --> 01:28:58,920
I'll be everywhere. 
Thanks. 

1655
01:28:59,120 --> 01:29:03,600
Man, thank you Jr., thank you 
Syndicate, Crown, everything you

1656
01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:07,480
need to know. 
I know you're excited, Tyler. 

1657
01:29:07,840 --> 01:29:13,520
I'm nervous. 
Oh dude, I I couldn't be I I 

1658
01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:17,560
will be nervous like in that I 
want to execute, but we've 

1659
01:29:17,560 --> 01:29:22,520
prepped so much for this. 
I know no one will mess up and I

1660
01:29:22,520 --> 01:29:26,440
know like I I just can't wait to
finally do what we've all been 

1661
01:29:26,440 --> 01:29:28,200
talking about doing for four 
years. 

1662
01:29:28,520 --> 01:29:30,680
Yeah, yeah, I but like, like I, 
it's hard. 

1663
01:29:30,680 --> 01:29:33,320
It's hard for me to show my 
excitement until we're like, 

1664
01:29:33,760 --> 01:29:35,520
we're in it. 
I bet you after like, 'cause 

1665
01:29:35,520 --> 01:29:38,120
just 'cause I just don't want to
be the, I don't want to mess it 

1666
01:29:38,120 --> 01:29:41,040
up, you know what I mean? 
And and I once I get Isabel 

1667
01:29:41,040 --> 01:29:44,120
done, I feel like I'll be like 
the most excited. 

1668
01:29:44,520 --> 01:29:48,040
Once. 
We're done with the first day, 

1669
01:29:48,040 --> 01:29:52,040
you know what I'm saying? 
Yeah, yeah, it'll be, it'll be 

1670
01:29:52,040 --> 01:29:53,040
interesting. 
You'll be doing some. 

1671
01:29:54,040 --> 01:29:56,000
We're all basically going to be 
on there at some point. 

1672
01:29:56,560 --> 01:29:59,320
So it'll be. 
Show up guys. 

1673
01:29:59,680 --> 01:30:04,200
Yeah, it'll be good. 
All right, let's head over. 

1674
01:30:04,200 --> 01:30:07,120
Let's do some blind rankings 
before we find out if I hate the

1675
01:30:07,120 --> 01:30:09,960
WFP. 
Let's see here. 

1676
01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:12,720
Do you think I do you think I 
hate it? 

1677
01:30:15,360 --> 01:30:16,720
WFP. 
Are you are? 

1678
01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:18,760
You asking us? 
Yeah. 

1679
01:30:19,640 --> 01:30:27,360
I think that you have, I think 
that you have insight that most 

1680
01:30:27,360 --> 01:30:34,520
don't. 
And I think that everybody's 

1681
01:30:34,520 --> 01:30:38,200
talking good about how good the 
competition was and you know 

1682
01:30:38,200 --> 01:30:44,000
it's going to eventually lead to
either a big fight or 

1683
01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:47,880
nothingness. 
And you don't want to talk about

1684
01:30:47,880 --> 01:30:50,320
how good it is because you know 
that's going to be the future. 

1685
01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:56,160
And that's, that's, I don't know
if that's true at all, but 

1686
01:30:56,160 --> 01:30:58,440
that's my assessment of your 
feelings about it. 

1687
01:30:58,920 --> 01:31:01,240
We'll find out. 
In the meantime, we'll play some

1688
01:31:01,240 --> 01:31:01,880
blind. 
Rankings. 

1689
01:31:02,040 --> 01:31:03,920
I thought that's what we were 
doing right now. 

1690
01:31:03,920 --> 01:31:06,760
Blind rankings. 
He's obviously pulling up blind 

1691
01:31:06,760 --> 01:31:09,800
rankings, John. 
I dude, I was trying to get 

1692
01:31:09,800 --> 01:31:12,760
intimate with you and then you 
just tried to like you shut me 

1693
01:31:12,800 --> 01:31:13,920
down. 
That's why he showed you. 

1694
01:31:15,960 --> 01:31:17,920
Blind Rankings. 
Look, look, you. 

1695
01:31:18,040 --> 01:31:20,360
Were making fun of me. 
I was trying to watch what I 

1696
01:31:20,360 --> 01:31:23,760
what I said, man. 
I was trying to have the right 

1697
01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:29,440
words for it. 
This week's blind rankings. 

1698
01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:34,440
Awful. 
Let's see, there we go. 

1699
01:31:34,440 --> 01:31:37,560
Awful CrossFit feelings. 
Oh, this is. 

1700
01:31:38,160 --> 01:31:40,000
This is this is in a 
competition. 

1701
01:31:40,000 --> 01:31:42,200
What is the last thing you want 
to have happen? 

1702
01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:44,480
What? 
Is this in McConnell? 

1703
01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:46,920
While you're competing. 
So if you're if you were 

1704
01:31:47,120 --> 01:31:51,200
thinking about in two weeks at 
Syndicate crown, if you're on 

1705
01:31:51,200 --> 01:31:56,120
the competition floor, what do 
you want to not happen to you? 

1706
01:31:57,000 --> 01:32:00,320
I was thinking like lactic acid,
feeling like like, you know what

1707
01:32:00,320 --> 01:32:02,360
I mean, the panties. 
But this is different. 

1708
01:32:02,360 --> 01:32:03,920
This is. 
Different this is this is you're

1709
01:32:03,920 --> 01:32:06,480
on you're on everybody's 
watching you you're on the live 

1710
01:32:06,480 --> 01:32:08,520
stream you're on you know 
everybody's watching it from the

1711
01:32:08,520 --> 01:32:16,200
crowd OK and this happens so 
we'll find out if what you guys 

1712
01:32:16,200 --> 01:32:22,600
think all right first one 
tripping over the final barbell.

1713
01:32:22,720 --> 01:32:25,080
Five. 
I mean, you're already done. 

1714
01:32:25,080 --> 01:32:26,240
Yeah, Yeah. 
Good. 

1715
01:32:26,360 --> 01:32:27,280
My. 
Thing is, it's. 

1716
01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:29,040
Not that bad, it's good 
memories. 

1717
01:32:29,360 --> 01:32:32,760
Is you're going to get a lot of 
reels, like it's just funny. 

1718
01:32:33,120 --> 01:32:36,400
Yeah, like I, yeah, I, I don't 
think that's bad at. 

1719
01:32:36,400 --> 01:32:38,600
All careful's been careful. 
There we go. 

1720
01:32:40,200 --> 01:32:42,320
It yeah, I think, I think it's 
like it's. 

1721
01:32:42,320 --> 01:32:43,280
Awesome. 
It's not a big deal. 

1722
01:32:43,360 --> 01:32:45,720
We're laughing at words, you 
know, like you're. 

1723
01:32:45,720 --> 01:32:46,600
It's good. 
You're good. 

1724
01:32:46,600 --> 01:32:49,920
OK. 
I think a lot of athletes would 

1725
01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:53,120
hate that though, like it would 
kill them and it's. 

1726
01:32:53,120 --> 01:32:56,960
I think, well, OK, I think it's 
worse if you're the winner. 

1727
01:32:58,520 --> 01:33:00,040
You know what? 
I'm saying you're right. 

1728
01:33:00,040 --> 01:33:02,320
Well, you just won. 
You want to have your moment, 

1729
01:33:02,320 --> 01:33:03,840
right? 
And then your moment is that. 

1730
01:33:04,120 --> 01:33:06,280
So like you just killed 
everybody, right? 

1731
01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:08,400
You should be proud. 
Like if you're in the middle of 

1732
01:33:08,400 --> 01:33:11,160
the pack or even if you're last,
like, you know, you're just, 

1733
01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:13,320
it's just man, we're having a 
day. 

1734
01:33:13,720 --> 01:33:16,120
I still liked it when Froning 
dropped it behind him when that 

1735
01:33:16,120 --> 01:33:18,960
was still a thing. 
It's a thing in Grid, so stay 

1736
01:33:18,960 --> 01:33:20,080
tuned. 
No, There you go. 

1737
01:33:20,080 --> 01:33:22,280
I'm going to be doing it a lot. 
Is that how you hurt your 

1738
01:33:22,280 --> 01:33:24,560
shoulder? 
We won't talk about it. 

1739
01:33:24,560 --> 01:33:30,040
Go ahead. 
All right, next one going out 

1740
01:33:30,040 --> 01:33:32,760
too hot and then just melting 
down. 

1741
01:33:32,960 --> 01:33:37,960
OK, let's think of what can. 
Happen the good old Noah Olson. 

1742
01:33:38,240 --> 01:33:42,120
Because to me, this is not that 
bad just because you're like 

1743
01:33:42,160 --> 01:33:43,320
you. 
Do it all the time. 

1744
01:33:43,320 --> 01:33:48,840
No, no, no, no, no, no, but like
but like you, it's oh, I just 

1745
01:33:48,840 --> 01:33:50,800
went out too hot like that's but
that's it. 

1746
01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:52,240
That's all it is. 
You know what I mean? 

1747
01:33:52,240 --> 01:33:53,720
I blew up because I went out too
hot. 

1748
01:33:53,720 --> 01:33:56,320
You know why you blew up? 
It happened. 

1749
01:33:56,360 --> 01:33:59,880
Now you're just suffering to get
through the event, but it's not 

1750
01:33:59,880 --> 01:34:03,160
even, you don't even have 
pressure to speed up because 

1751
01:34:03,160 --> 01:34:05,720
you, you blew up. 
You know what I mean? 

1752
01:34:05,720 --> 01:34:08,160
Like you're just, you just it 
happens to everybody. 

1753
01:34:08,160 --> 01:34:09,320
Everybody knows what it feels 
like. 

1754
01:34:09,320 --> 01:34:12,080
I just don't think it's that of 
all the bad things that can 

1755
01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:16,200
happen, you know, we're talking 
about bad things that happen, 

1756
01:34:16,320 --> 01:34:18,240
right? 
Like it's not, there's not going

1757
01:34:18,240 --> 01:34:21,040
to be random good things on this
list as far as bad things. 

1758
01:34:21,040 --> 01:34:23,000
I just don't think that's that 
that's that bad. 

1759
01:34:23,720 --> 01:34:27,640
If you the the thing about going
out too hot is if it works you 

1760
01:34:27,640 --> 01:34:29,680
look cool as shit. 
If it doesn't. 

1761
01:34:30,040 --> 01:34:32,160
Work well, I think you just look
dumb. 

1762
01:34:32,240 --> 01:34:34,360
I think we're only referencing 
when it doesn't work. 

1763
01:34:34,840 --> 01:34:38,200
Right. 
But I think that to me the the 

1764
01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:42,040
reason I reference if it goes 
well is because like it, there 

1765
01:34:42,040 --> 01:34:44,040
is that upside of going out too 
hot. 

1766
01:34:44,080 --> 01:34:46,600
You know you've risked it for 
something, yes. 

1767
01:34:46,600 --> 01:34:48,800
It wasn't like it. 
Not all the time. 

1768
01:34:48,800 --> 01:34:51,400
Is it stupid? 
You were going for it, right? 

1769
01:34:51,560 --> 01:34:53,080
And then you just didn't have 
it. 

1770
01:34:54,080 --> 01:34:56,840
And like nobody, I, I mean, 
like, unless you do something 

1771
01:34:56,840 --> 01:35:00,800
really dumb, it's like, you 
know, go, you know, pull like a 

1772
01:35:00,800 --> 01:35:03,320
130 on a marathon Rd. 
So like you don't want to do 

1773
01:35:03,320 --> 01:35:05,160
that like in the 1st. 
I don't think we're talking 

1774
01:35:05,160 --> 01:35:06,720
about that, no. 
No, no, no. 

1775
01:35:07,280 --> 01:35:09,200
But yeah, I think we're talking 
about like. 

1776
01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:12,840
Noah Olson doing the the 223 
intervals and don't get me 

1777
01:35:12,840 --> 01:35:15,120
wrong, that's not on the road 
climb way too fast. 

1778
01:35:15,120 --> 01:35:16,880
But you can rationalize it as 
awesome. 

1779
01:35:16,880 --> 01:35:20,120
Physically it's horrible but 
mentally it's fine. 

1780
01:35:20,120 --> 01:35:22,920
I'm going 4. 
I'm like, I'm just saying you 

1781
01:35:22,920 --> 01:35:25,600
can mentally rationalize why it 
happened. 

1782
01:35:27,120 --> 01:35:30,360
Yeah. 
And guys, the comments are 

1783
01:35:30,360 --> 01:35:34,360
referencing stuff that's a part 
of awful feelings, like not 

1784
01:35:34,360 --> 01:35:38,160
being able to lunge at the last 
minute, like the last lunch, not

1785
01:35:38,160 --> 01:35:41,400
being able to do it like, but do
you need to do that hot? 

1786
01:35:41,400 --> 01:35:44,680
That's that's that might be one 
of the next things we have. 

1787
01:35:45,200 --> 01:35:48,840
That's I mean, I think that's 
what I like about bag 9 is you 

1788
01:35:48,840 --> 01:35:51,760
have to go out hot if you're if 
you're in a must win like you 

1789
01:35:51,760 --> 01:35:53,560
have. 
You got to risk it to get the 

1790
01:35:53,560 --> 01:35:55,280
biscuit, man. 
Something like that. 

1791
01:35:55,840 --> 01:35:58,800
All right, next one up. 
Depends on the biscuit really. 

1792
01:35:59,040 --> 01:36:01,360
And then you're in a haze and 
stuck in mayonnaise. 

1793
01:36:02,720 --> 01:36:06,960
Here we go seeing that Hitler 
made a video about you. 

1794
01:36:07,120 --> 01:36:09,680
Happens all the time. 
I've had a few of these 

1795
01:36:09,680 --> 01:36:14,160
incidents to. 
Honestly this is 5 for me. 

1796
01:36:14,160 --> 01:36:16,880
Most of them are good. 
I've had one kind of bad one, 

1797
01:36:16,880 --> 01:36:19,080
the other two kind of kind of 
have my back. 

1798
01:36:20,160 --> 01:36:22,600
Yeah, that's not the Hillary 
video I'm thinking about, but 

1799
01:36:22,600 --> 01:36:23,920
are. 
You thinking about like a Hooper

1800
01:36:23,920 --> 01:36:26,720
style video this. 
Is a good thing. 

1801
01:36:26,960 --> 01:36:29,400
These are I felt great I. 
Think there's a lot of people 

1802
01:36:29,400 --> 01:36:30,800
that would disagree with you 
but. 

1803
01:36:31,600 --> 01:36:34,760
It's I mean, if we're talking 
about CrossFit, like he, he, he 

1804
01:36:34,760 --> 01:36:38,640
may say OK, Brooke, like that's.
Probably you see the thumbnail 

1805
01:36:38,640 --> 01:36:39,360
come out. 
You're you're. 

1806
01:36:39,400 --> 01:36:41,320
Scrolling your Instagram. 
Stories and it says well 

1807
01:36:41,320 --> 01:36:44,600
situation where like. 
Yeah, like we're like, yeah. 

1808
01:36:44,600 --> 01:36:47,120
And you see it and you're like, 
uh oh, what did I do? 

1809
01:36:47,280 --> 01:36:50,520
I would say 2. 
I think it's the worst thing. 

1810
01:36:50,640 --> 01:36:54,920
But I don't even think. 
I mean like if I'm Brooke and 

1811
01:36:54,920 --> 01:36:59,080
I'm seeing that, I'm like, like,
he's got a point. 

1812
01:36:59,080 --> 01:37:01,280
I screwed up. 
For you to say that though, 

1813
01:37:01,280 --> 01:37:04,960
because it's not you like and 
when this means like your games 

1814
01:37:04,960 --> 01:37:07,960
ticket and then he makes a video
about you. 

1815
01:37:07,960 --> 01:37:10,480
And I'm not saying she didn't 
get there because like crossword

1816
01:37:10,480 --> 01:37:12,160
didn't catch it and then Hillary
brought it up and then they 

1817
01:37:12,160 --> 01:37:13,280
caught it. 
That's not what I'm saying, 

1818
01:37:13,520 --> 01:37:19,600
Dave, but now you have thousands
of people saying you shouldn't 

1819
01:37:19,600 --> 01:37:23,240
go to the games, right? 
Like she look at. 

1820
01:37:23,240 --> 01:37:26,560
That morning she puts her scores
in and next thing you know she 

1821
01:37:26,560 --> 01:37:29,960
wakes up the next morning and 
Hiller has a video showing your 

1822
01:37:29,960 --> 01:37:32,640
burpees. 
How many DMS do you get saying 

1823
01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:35,880
you are trash like that is 
because of him? 

1824
01:37:36,840 --> 01:37:41,880
Well, OK, John, so an analogous 
thing for you is the Big Mama 

1825
01:37:41,880 --> 01:37:43,360
outlash. 
Sure. 

1826
01:37:45,120 --> 01:37:47,640
I think I think that was worse 
than what Brooke is getting. 

1827
01:37:47,640 --> 01:37:52,120
Here's the. 1. 
Huh, here and with the strong 

1828
01:37:52,120 --> 01:37:55,800
women thing, Brooke's just 
saying, hey girl, your chest 

1829
01:37:55,800 --> 01:37:58,400
isn't to the ground and. 
It wasn't. 

1830
01:37:58,920 --> 01:38:00,240
Right. 
Like like. 

1831
01:38:00,680 --> 01:38:05,840
Like I I'm not kidding you, it 
was for for a week a straight 

1832
01:38:05,840 --> 01:38:09,880
week. 
I had 50 DMS saying that I 

1833
01:38:09,880 --> 01:38:14,320
should go kill myself for a 
whole week dude. 

1834
01:38:14,880 --> 01:38:18,360
And I'm like man, y'all have 
need better things to do. 

1835
01:38:18,360 --> 01:38:22,360
Honestly I like this is you'd 
have thought I cheated on my 

1836
01:38:22,360 --> 01:38:27,080
wife with my assistant and and 
and it was the type of DMS I was

1837
01:38:27,080 --> 01:38:29,080
getting. 
Mitchell probably got less DMS 

1838
01:38:29,080 --> 01:38:32,040
on that than. 
You have wild wild. 

1839
01:38:32,640 --> 01:38:35,200
Anyway. 
So I think that's worse than 

1840
01:38:35,200 --> 01:38:36,720
what Brooke is getting. 
I think. 

1841
01:38:36,720 --> 01:38:40,480
I think it's it's a little bit 
what you say where it's like he 

1842
01:38:40,480 --> 01:38:43,400
has a point because I don't 
think he'll Hiller ever makes a 

1843
01:38:43,400 --> 01:38:47,160
video out of like malice. 
He's just bringing it to light, 

1844
01:38:47,400 --> 01:38:49,600
right. 
And he's and he's right, right. 

1845
01:38:49,600 --> 01:38:53,840
Like I think most of the time 
he's, if not all the time, he's 

1846
01:38:53,960 --> 01:38:57,880
right in what he's pointing out.
But the backlash that comes with

1847
01:38:57,880 --> 01:39:02,200
it, I think is way out of 
proportion than what it should 

1848
01:39:02,200 --> 01:39:04,760
be. 
Then what's the worst Hiller 

1849
01:39:04,760 --> 01:39:07,080
video CrossFit related? 
Because I was going to talk 

1850
01:39:07,080 --> 01:39:09,400
about Brian Fran, but that's not
really a CrossFit video. 

1851
01:39:10,040 --> 01:39:11,360
Hip and steel. 
Yeah. 

1852
01:39:11,720 --> 01:39:14,200
Why just? 
Because he fought him about it 

1853
01:39:15,560 --> 01:39:17,560
and like, it turned into like a 
whole like. 

1854
01:39:17,560 --> 01:39:19,120
Well, that's the reaction to it 
though. 

1855
01:39:19,120 --> 01:39:20,920
Like just literally the video, 
right? 

1856
01:39:20,920 --> 01:39:25,400
Like the thumbnail comes out. 
I mean, Brian, Brian, Brian's 

1857
01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:30,160
pretty. 
I think anytime he says like has

1858
01:39:30,280 --> 01:39:35,200
the worst or the best, like 
those are always like, those are

1859
01:39:35,200 --> 01:39:37,320
different videos. 
Those are like he's coming 

1860
01:39:37,320 --> 01:39:38,640
after. 
This, I mean, I do know, like 

1861
01:39:38,640 --> 01:39:41,440
when he made the video about 
Marcus Philly, like it wasn't 

1862
01:39:41,440 --> 01:39:45,400
even that like bad, right? 
But like, I think I remember 

1863
01:39:45,680 --> 01:39:49,080
Marcus reached out to him and 
his initial reaction was, oh, 

1864
01:39:49,080 --> 01:39:52,760
no, what did I do? 
Like, yeah, I'd be worried, 

1865
01:39:52,760 --> 01:39:53,960
right? 
And I think a few others have 

1866
01:39:53,960 --> 01:39:57,680
been like that. 
I think the initial reaction is 

1867
01:39:58,480 --> 01:40:00,920
oh crap. 
The the friend one's definitely 

1868
01:40:00,920 --> 01:40:06,040
the I think the top one. 
I think HQ when they get videos,

1869
01:40:06,040 --> 01:40:09,840
when Hillary post videos, like I
think Jeremy Cross, it effed up.

1870
01:40:10,200 --> 01:40:13,000
It wasn't me. 
See, it's easy and that's why I 

1871
01:40:13,000 --> 01:40:15,160
want to give it a three because 
I'm like, yeah, it wasn't me. 

1872
01:40:15,440 --> 01:40:17,640
You know what's? 
Crazy if Brooke just said that 

1873
01:40:17,640 --> 01:40:22,840
when he made that, like like if 
Brooke is made a joke about it 

1874
01:40:22,840 --> 01:40:27,920
and we're like, that wasn't me 
done, nothing happened, nothing 

1875
01:40:27,920 --> 01:40:30,160
happened. 
Maybe you get penalized like 

1876
01:40:30,160 --> 01:40:32,000
like I mean, I think she 
probably would still got because

1877
01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:35,160
the ring muscle ups are bad too,
but like or just be like I was 

1878
01:40:35,160 --> 01:40:37,720
in a mirror world and I'm 
actually the other way around. 

1879
01:40:37,960 --> 01:40:40,160
But but like. 
Nothing. 

1880
01:40:40,320 --> 01:40:43,640
Like no, the backlash that she 
got would not have happened. 

1881
01:40:43,680 --> 01:40:46,040
It disarmed everything. 
At all. 

1882
01:40:46,560 --> 01:40:51,800
Instead you make it. 
I never get no Rep to my burpees

1883
01:40:52,480 --> 01:40:55,880
ever. 
You know, and, and and you're 

1884
01:40:55,880 --> 01:40:58,080
wrong. 
You know what I'm saying? 

1885
01:40:58,080 --> 01:41:01,880
Like it it said you make it this
thing and it shouldn't be a 

1886
01:41:01,880 --> 01:41:02,320
thing. 
So. 

1887
01:41:02,720 --> 01:41:03,800
Where do you want to put it, 
John? 

1888
01:41:04,200 --> 01:41:08,160
I say to I don't think it's the 
worst thing ever, but I do think

1889
01:41:08,160 --> 01:41:11,600
it's not great if you wake up in
the morning and you see it. 

1890
01:41:12,080 --> 01:41:14,880
I will see to John, I think 
there might be some stuff in 

1891
01:41:14,880 --> 01:41:16,560
here that that are better or 
worse. 

1892
01:41:16,560 --> 01:41:18,440
Yeah, shrink that. 
Get it smaller. 

1893
01:41:20,960 --> 01:41:23,080
Why is it not? 
Come on, come on. 

1894
01:41:23,160 --> 01:41:26,360
We got it. 
Come on. 

1895
01:41:27,200 --> 01:41:29,400
We'll just move it down here. 
Give it a second. 

1896
01:41:30,920 --> 01:41:32,400
It's going to move that slow the
whole. 

1897
01:41:32,640 --> 01:41:33,760
Time. 
No, you got to be able to grab 

1898
01:41:33,800 --> 01:41:34,200
it. 
It's. 

1899
01:41:35,200 --> 01:41:36,720
There we go when that thing 
goes. 

1900
01:41:36,800 --> 01:41:39,400
Towards the corner of the. 
Screen, just wait for it. 

1901
01:41:40,000 --> 01:41:41,280
There we go. 
There we go. 

1902
01:41:41,280 --> 01:41:45,120
All right, next one up. 
Here we go. 

1903
01:41:46,160 --> 01:41:50,160
You got one or three left, no 
repping your final. 

1904
01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:56,000
I think this is devastating, 
dude, dude, because like you're 

1905
01:41:56,120 --> 01:42:02,560
one step away from making it to 
the games and then you fail and 

1906
01:42:02,560 --> 01:42:05,520
then you bring it back. 
You try to rush it because 

1907
01:42:05,520 --> 01:42:08,360
you're like, Oh my gosh, I 
failed, I need to go and then 

1908
01:42:08,360 --> 01:42:11,480
you fail again. 
It's not just one no Rep on the 

1909
01:42:11,480 --> 01:42:17,480
last lunge and ends up being 
like a minute right and I cannot

1910
01:42:17,480 --> 01:42:20,120
think of, you know, a person 
that this has happened to 

1911
01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:23,240
multiple times that Tyler hates 
a lot. 

1912
01:42:23,440 --> 01:42:24,920
But. 
That's the worst part. 

1913
01:42:24,920 --> 01:42:28,320
About the no Rep on the last 
lunge is then you have to hear 

1914
01:42:28,320 --> 01:42:30,200
me call you a quitter. 
That's true. 

1915
01:42:30,360 --> 01:42:33,280
I don't want to do that, but I 
will do that. 

1916
01:42:34,120 --> 01:42:37,360
So I'm going with #1 I don't 
want to be called a quitter. 

1917
01:42:37,560 --> 01:42:40,360
I I would say #1 it happened to 
Annika too. 

1918
01:42:41,400 --> 01:42:45,680
Yeah, but at World Fitness 
Project as well. 

1919
01:42:49,320 --> 01:42:53,040
No, I yeah, I think that's, it's
pretty devastating. 

1920
01:42:54,600 --> 01:42:59,160
We're either going to. 
We got to work on. 

1921
01:42:59,160 --> 01:43:01,200
We got to work on that. 
I don't know what's going on 

1922
01:43:01,520 --> 01:43:05,840
right where we want to take that
111 all right number. 3 on this,

1923
01:43:05,840 --> 01:43:10,120
John. 
The only athlete left on the 

1924
01:43:10,120 --> 01:43:11,520
floor. 
No, that's fine. 

1925
01:43:11,760 --> 01:43:13,760
That's. 
Fine, all of your competitive. 

1926
01:43:13,800 --> 01:43:16,120
I don't know. 
Telling you how to do a muscle 

1927
01:43:16,120 --> 01:43:17,360
up. 
Hold. 

1928
01:43:17,400 --> 01:43:18,240
On I. 
Think that's. 

1929
01:43:18,240 --> 01:43:20,520
Go ahead, I'm going to mute 
myself, my parents. 

1930
01:43:20,600 --> 01:43:23,040
Yeah, I definitely think that's 
a one. 

1931
01:43:23,520 --> 01:43:28,400
I hate that feeling when it 
happened to me. 

1932
01:43:29,360 --> 01:43:32,080
It's like there were all these 
we were at, we were prepping for

1933
01:43:32,080 --> 01:43:33,720
Crash. 
It was the first workout in the 

1934
01:43:33,720 --> 01:43:37,920
swim event at the pool and 
Taylor wanted to work out and he

1935
01:43:37,920 --> 01:43:40,120
was like do this GHD swim 
workout with me. 

1936
01:43:40,480 --> 01:43:43,200
I am not. 
I'm like not a bad swimmer, but 

1937
01:43:43,200 --> 01:43:45,720
I'm not great. 
Taylor's pretty decent and it's 

1938
01:43:45,720 --> 01:43:48,360
150 GHD setup since interval 
style. 

1939
01:43:48,800 --> 01:43:51,200
Taylor finishes 2 rounds before 
I do. 

1940
01:43:51,440 --> 01:43:56,760
And it's just me and like 60 
people just looking at me and I 

1941
01:43:56,760 --> 01:44:00,480
felt so stupid. 
I want to die in those moments. 

1942
01:44:00,520 --> 01:44:04,560
I want to disappear, turn into a
puddle of goo and just. 

1943
01:44:05,400 --> 01:44:09,480
I guarantee like catching on the
rope climbs 100 percents. 

1944
01:44:09,480 --> 01:44:11,520
Like, yeah, no, this was the 
worst. 

1945
01:44:11,520 --> 01:44:14,680
That was the worst regional 
moment of my entire career. 

1946
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:17,400
Yes. 
Bar none, right, like and the 

1947
01:44:17,400 --> 01:44:19,360
people are trying to tell you 
how to do the workout. 

1948
01:44:19,840 --> 01:44:22,120
Oh, just just you know, you can 
do it. 

1949
01:44:22,160 --> 01:44:25,920
You can do that, you know, and. 
Though now that I think about 

1950
01:44:25,920 --> 01:44:29,600
it, knowing that you are fit 
enough and you screwed up on 

1951
01:44:29,600 --> 01:44:33,480
execution on a last lunge might 
be worse because you almost. 

1952
01:44:33,480 --> 01:44:35,840
Had it's it's way worse, dude. 
It's way worse. 

1953
01:44:35,840 --> 01:44:38,200
It's in the grip of your hands, 
and then your grip fails. 

1954
01:44:38,680 --> 01:44:42,000
Yeah, I think, I think we did a 
good job. 

1955
01:44:42,400 --> 01:44:46,320
I'll be right back. 
Yeah, I think, I think 3 should 

1956
01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:49,680
be moved to two, sitting on the 
floor should be moved to two, 

1957
01:44:49,680 --> 01:44:51,800
and Hitler should be moved down.
But that's just me. 

1958
01:44:51,800 --> 01:44:53,200
I think everything else is in 
order. 

1959
01:44:53,720 --> 01:44:55,560
That's fair. 
OK. 

1960
01:44:56,280 --> 01:44:57,880
Good job, John. 
John. 

1961
01:45:01,480 --> 01:45:04,560
Disappeared. 
You can't comment that. 

1962
01:45:06,600 --> 01:45:08,680
Give it the program and then all
the athletes just circle around 

1963
01:45:08,680 --> 01:45:14,960
like the circle of death. 
Yeah, the sharks, I feel like 

1964
01:45:14,960 --> 01:45:18,080
that used to that happens. 
That happened more like nowadays

1965
01:45:18,080 --> 01:45:20,040
they don't do it as much. 
Like every once in a while 

1966
01:45:20,040 --> 01:45:22,200
somebody will go back, but a lot
of times they just kind of stand

1967
01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:26,040
there and watch you, which. 
We don't have the spread of 

1968
01:45:26,040 --> 01:45:27,520
athletes we used to have like 
you. 

1969
01:45:27,520 --> 01:45:29,960
Those things could happen a lot 
easier back in the day and now 

1970
01:45:29,960 --> 01:45:32,840
it's like it's dwindled down to 
nothing, so all the athletes are

1971
01:45:32,840 --> 01:45:35,520
kind of qualified. 
All right, we better, we better 

1972
01:45:35,520 --> 01:45:37,680
move on to this. 
Got 10 minutes and then we're 

1973
01:45:37,680 --> 01:45:40,800
going to shut it down. 
Do we hate the WFP? 

1974
01:45:41,280 --> 01:45:43,960
Tyler, you were there. 
I was. 

1975
01:45:44,360 --> 01:45:46,440
I watched it from the live 
stream. 

1976
01:45:46,840 --> 01:45:49,960
John I think watched at least a 
little bit from the live stream.

1977
01:45:50,240 --> 01:45:52,680
I watched the live stream, I 
watched it all everywhere. 

1978
01:45:53,880 --> 01:45:57,960
Tyler, before we get into that, 
what were your thoughts of being

1979
01:45:57,960 --> 01:46:03,440
there in person at the UFP Tour 
Stop 1? 

1980
01:46:04,200 --> 01:46:06,200
I've been itching to talk about 
this for a week. 

1981
01:46:06,320 --> 01:46:10,400
I know you guys are like, yeah, 
yeah, let's hear it. 

1982
01:46:10,400 --> 01:46:13,920
So we got, I went there and I 
was, I was trying to be very 

1983
01:46:13,920 --> 01:46:19,160
open minded and I, I made that 
post on my story that like I was

1984
01:46:19,160 --> 01:46:21,160
asked no less than 10 times, why
are you here? 

1985
01:46:21,160 --> 01:46:24,840
You guys hate WFP which I 
thought was hilarious. 

1986
01:46:24,840 --> 01:46:29,920
From fans or. 
Fans, coaches, athletes, 

1987
01:46:30,200 --> 01:46:31,720
managers. 
All of them. 

1988
01:46:33,560 --> 01:46:36,280
I even had. 
One fan come up to me and tell 

1989
01:46:36,280 --> 01:46:38,800
me he watches the show. 
He's he's from Indy. 

1990
01:46:39,040 --> 01:46:41,760
And then he almost apologized 
for going and. 

1991
01:46:41,880 --> 01:46:43,600
They're like, no. 
Dude, like, these are the best 

1992
01:46:43,600 --> 01:46:45,080
athletes in the world and 
they're in your hometown. 

1993
01:46:45,080 --> 01:46:48,440
Definitely go. 
But I thought that was funny 

1994
01:46:48,440 --> 01:46:50,000
that he was like halfway 
apologized. 

1995
01:46:50,000 --> 01:46:54,280
Like no, like fuck that. 
But I went in super open minded,

1996
01:46:54,280 --> 01:46:56,560
like just trying to like I don't
want to. 

1997
01:46:56,680 --> 01:47:00,160
I don't want to hate anything 
going into it. 

1998
01:47:00,640 --> 01:47:03,440
I think that they like so 
breakdown. 

1999
01:47:04,560 --> 01:47:06,960
They were definitely focused on 
the athletes. 

2000
01:47:08,800 --> 01:47:10,160
Like that's what they said they 
would do. 

2001
01:47:10,840 --> 01:47:13,560
Overly so. 
OK, I'll swing back around that 

2002
01:47:13,560 --> 01:47:17,600
later. 
The floor was cool as shit if 

2003
01:47:17,600 --> 01:47:20,160
you were in person. 
It looked not great on the live 

2004
01:47:20,160 --> 01:47:23,760
stream. 
It was really cool in person. 

2005
01:47:26,000 --> 01:47:30,320
The athlete like warm up area, 
like it was an entire football 

2006
01:47:30,320 --> 01:47:33,320
field. 
They had a ton of space. 

2007
01:47:33,320 --> 01:47:35,840
It was nothing like water 
palooza where everybody's 

2008
01:47:35,840 --> 01:47:38,520
cramped in. 
That worked too. 

2009
01:47:38,600 --> 01:47:42,200
I think it's detriment almost. 
So I, I went around and I, I 

2010
01:47:42,200 --> 01:47:45,800
sort of like talked to athletes 
that I knew and I knew that 

2011
01:47:46,640 --> 01:47:50,840
either didn't like, or they were
not paid by the WFP, but we're 

2012
01:47:50,840 --> 01:47:54,680
competing there or they were 
paid by the WFP competing. 

2013
01:47:55,120 --> 01:47:59,040
And the thing that I'll say is 
like the vibe felt like a six 

2014
01:48:00,640 --> 01:48:03,640
and one athlete in particular 
told me like this feels like a 

2015
01:48:03,640 --> 01:48:07,840
preseason game, like the, the, 
the hype was just down. 

2016
01:48:09,560 --> 01:48:11,280
I think some of that had to do 
with the lighting. 

2017
01:48:11,280 --> 01:48:14,480
Like if you go into a movie 
right and the and it's sort of 

2018
01:48:14,480 --> 01:48:17,440
dark in there, like everybody's 
kind of whispering when it was 

2019
01:48:17,440 --> 01:48:19,440
between events, like people 
weren't really loud. 

2020
01:48:19,440 --> 01:48:21,920
It was sort of hushed tones the 
whole time. 

2021
01:48:22,240 --> 01:48:26,080
And I think that decreased the 
vibe of the entire thing and 

2022
01:48:26,080 --> 01:48:29,000
that so much like that the 
athletes felt that it was 

2023
01:48:29,000 --> 01:48:35,080
definitely very, very quiet. 
It felt not not hype. 1 athlete 

2024
01:48:35,080 --> 01:48:39,920
in particular told me that 
though they felt peaked and felt

2025
01:48:39,920 --> 01:48:43,080
ready to be there and wanted to 
like compete, to win that they 

2026
01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:45,440
like, they just felt like there 
was a gear missing because the 

2027
01:48:45,440 --> 01:48:49,400
hype was down. 
And why did you not speak the 

2028
01:48:49,400 --> 01:48:52,320
freak up when Tanner was trying 
to talk that everybody was 

2029
01:48:52,320 --> 01:49:00,400
competing? 
We weren't ready the the on on 

2030
01:49:00,400 --> 01:49:03,800
the back end in what I've heard 
about the administration of the 

2031
01:49:03,800 --> 01:49:07,440
event has been horror stories so
much that people who worked the 

2032
01:49:07,440 --> 01:49:11,480
event as like either judges or 
equipment managers, there's 

2033
01:49:11,480 --> 01:49:13,960
different things like that said 
they were completely 

2034
01:49:13,960 --> 01:49:17,680
understaffed. 
I heard one story that I think 

2035
01:49:17,680 --> 01:49:21,480
yet he had coolers there and 
there was water and, and stuff 

2036
01:49:21,480 --> 01:49:27,160
in those coolers and they had 
one cooler for essentially the 

2037
01:49:27,160 --> 01:49:29,160
staff. 
And at one point they took it 

2038
01:49:29,160 --> 01:49:30,600
and they were like, the athletes
need it. 

2039
01:49:30,920 --> 01:49:33,480
At which point, like one of the 
equipment managers were like, 

2040
01:49:33,800 --> 01:49:36,640
there's not enough of us here. 
We don't even have time to get 

2041
01:49:36,640 --> 01:49:38,040
water. 
But if we did now we don't 

2042
01:49:38,040 --> 01:49:42,160
fucking have water. 
So it's like, I mean, some of 

2043
01:49:42,160 --> 01:49:44,720
these people who are running the
event have run multiple events 

2044
01:49:44,760 --> 01:49:47,680
and like that's like a basic 
thing, like take care of the 

2045
01:49:47,680 --> 01:49:49,640
people. 
And so it's like when I saw 

2046
01:49:49,640 --> 01:49:54,240
these shirts of people matter 
more, which which people who are

2047
01:49:54,240 --> 01:49:57,360
you talking about? 
And so it's like somebody said, 

2048
01:49:57,400 --> 01:49:59,440
like maybe just athletes matter 
more. 

2049
01:49:59,960 --> 01:50:05,760
Well, just the good ones. 
I'll I'll let you go 'cause I 

2050
01:50:05,760 --> 01:50:09,960
have like a a much longer spiel 
about what I think this implies 

2051
01:50:09,960 --> 01:50:11,440
for the. 
The future yeah, I want I want 

2052
01:50:11,440 --> 01:50:16,880
to play a a quick part of the 
video here on Train Think Tank. 

2053
01:50:17,720 --> 01:50:21,600
They spoke about it and Perrin 
spoke. 

2054
01:50:21,600 --> 01:50:23,520
I think more about the I think 
it's this was about the 

2055
01:50:23,520 --> 01:50:25,480
atmosphere. 
Let's play a little clip. 

2056
01:50:25,600 --> 01:50:27,800
Feel like the environment, I 
don't know how you guys felt, 

2057
01:50:27,800 --> 01:50:31,320
was very laid back and in some 
ways maybe a little too laid 

2058
01:50:31,320 --> 01:50:33,680
back. 
Like there wasn't, it wasn't the

2059
01:50:33,680 --> 01:50:37,320
pressure of qualifying for the 
games or on the line, which I 

2060
01:50:37,320 --> 01:50:40,800
think maybe help some people 
relax into it and for some 

2061
01:50:40,800 --> 01:50:44,640
people, maybe the first tour 
people have the game still to 

2062
01:50:44,640 --> 01:50:46,360
come. 
People are waiting for. 

2063
01:50:46,680 --> 01:50:47,960
People just finished the online 
just. 

2064
01:50:47,960 --> 01:50:49,840
Finished and they might have 
been a little bit flat. 

2065
01:50:51,240 --> 01:50:54,080
That was the only thing I feel 
like intensity and mood. 

2066
01:50:54,200 --> 01:50:58,360
I didn't feel like there was as 
much crazy competition between 

2067
01:50:58,360 --> 01:51:02,440
people, but as far as what they 
had laid out for everyone, there

2068
01:51:02,440 --> 01:51:05,280
was more than enough space. 
Very good warm up area. 

2069
01:51:05,280 --> 01:51:07,840
As far as they had all the 
implements except for the burpee

2070
01:51:07,840 --> 01:51:09,640
blocks I think. 
Yeah, there's no ballistic 

2071
01:51:09,640 --> 01:51:11,160
blocks the. 
Ballistic blocks was the only 

2072
01:51:11,160 --> 01:51:13,640
thing missing they. 
Brought in extra. 

2073
01:51:15,320 --> 01:51:17,120
So I mean, I think Perrin would 
agree with you, right? 

2074
01:51:17,120 --> 01:51:21,160
Like I would say, first of all, 
go go watch that if you want to 

2075
01:51:21,160 --> 01:51:25,640
get a first hand perspective of 
what they thought, because I 

2076
01:51:25,640 --> 01:51:30,520
think all of them were there. 
No, I think you're I think 

2077
01:51:30,520 --> 01:51:35,560
that's right. 
Like the pre season probably is 

2078
01:51:35,560 --> 01:51:40,640
a really good way of putting it.
And Kotler, Kotler kind of 

2079
01:51:40,640 --> 01:51:43,800
touched on it on Clydesdale this
this evening. 

2080
01:51:45,360 --> 01:51:49,400
They aren't fighting for a 
GameSpot. 

2081
01:51:49,400 --> 01:51:54,880
It's not all on the line, right?
And all of it has been you're 

2082
01:51:55,080 --> 01:51:59,160
trying to get points and the 
final, the final event in 

2083
01:51:59,160 --> 01:52:01,320
Copenhagen is worth double. 
That's where you're going to 

2084
01:52:01,600 --> 01:52:05,280
move the most. 
And so I've heard a lot of like,

2085
01:52:05,280 --> 01:52:07,240
well, you know, it's just one 
out of three. 

2086
01:52:07,240 --> 01:52:13,240
It's not the end of the world 
like and and Kotler kind of 

2087
01:52:13,240 --> 01:52:16,920
spoke about he he he spoke about
it really positively. 

2088
01:52:16,920 --> 01:52:21,280
But then like, you know, you get
all these opportunities, but at 

2089
01:52:21,280 --> 01:52:24,200
the same time, like there wasn't
that fire, right? 

2090
01:52:24,200 --> 01:52:26,200
Like your whole season's not on 
the line. 

2091
01:52:26,200 --> 01:52:28,600
It's not coming down to it. 
You can be laid back. 

2092
01:52:29,840 --> 01:52:33,120
I want to watch people fight for
it gets the playoffs. 

2093
01:52:33,120 --> 01:52:38,480
Like you don't watch game three 
of Major League Baseball and get

2094
01:52:38,520 --> 01:52:42,280
that invested in who wins. 
Like you want your team to win, 

2095
01:52:42,280 --> 01:52:45,440
cool, great. 
But it's just one out of 162 

2096
01:52:45,440 --> 01:52:47,680
games. 
And I get the threes less. 

2097
01:52:48,880 --> 01:52:50,640
But there's something about 
being in the playoffs. 

2098
01:52:51,120 --> 01:52:54,040
Playoff baseball in October is 
way different than regular 

2099
01:52:54,040 --> 01:52:57,080
season baseball. 
NBA. 

2100
01:52:57,560 --> 01:53:03,360
Well, I mean, I think I think 
down said what it needs to be 

2101
01:53:03,360 --> 01:53:06,520
and I don't know if the 
organizers like look at it as 

2102
01:53:06,520 --> 01:53:10,120
that on the on the coffee pods 
and watch show. 

2103
01:53:10,120 --> 01:53:12,600
If it's his last question, if 
you want to, if you can go find 

2104
01:53:12,600 --> 01:53:15,280
it. 
It's been but he I'm sorry for 

2105
01:53:15,280 --> 01:53:17,760
putting it on, which if you 
can't, no worry. 

2106
01:53:17,760 --> 01:53:18,960
It was the last question 
downside. 

2107
01:53:19,720 --> 01:53:26,280
But he said that he looked at it
like like CrossFit is at Harbor 

2108
01:53:26,280 --> 01:53:29,320
freight spin. 
If you can mute your tab I'd be 

2109
01:53:29,320 --> 01:53:31,160
appreciate. 
It Hey now I'm trying to find it

2110
01:53:31,160 --> 01:53:32,240
for you. 
Just calm down. 

2111
01:53:32,640 --> 01:53:36,400
CrossFit. 
Harbor Freight new new sponsor. 

2112
01:53:36,720 --> 01:53:37,240
That's. 
Right. 

2113
01:53:37,320 --> 01:53:40,200
The CrossFit Games is like the 
Super Bowl of fitness, right? 

2114
01:53:40,200 --> 01:53:43,960
It's the Olympics, right? 
And the gold medal, whoever wins

2115
01:53:43,960 --> 01:53:47,080
the 100 meter dash is the 
fastest man in the world. 

2116
01:53:47,480 --> 01:53:51,800
And then the World Fitness 
Project is the Diamond League, 

2117
01:53:52,520 --> 01:53:56,160
and it's just for marketing. 
You can win money doing it. 

2118
01:53:56,160 --> 01:53:58,920
It's a big competition. 
The biggest athletes show up to 

2119
01:53:58,960 --> 01:54:01,120
it. 
But it's never looked at as 

2120
01:54:01,120 --> 01:54:03,440
like, who wins? 
That is the fastest man alive. 

2121
01:54:04,400 --> 01:54:07,000
I don't know if he said it more 
clearly, but do you have it now?

2122
01:54:07,000 --> 01:54:08,200
It's been. 
I did, yeah. 

2123
01:54:08,200 --> 01:54:10,560
Just. 
Isn't it the bar Palooza that? 

2124
01:54:11,640 --> 01:54:13,880
No, but it's a series. 
The Diamond League's a series. 

2125
01:54:13,880 --> 01:54:15,280
Like there's multiple 
competitions, there's 

2126
01:54:15,280 --> 01:54:17,760
championship at the end, like, 
and I thought it was a perfect 

2127
01:54:17,760 --> 01:54:20,240
analogy. 
I think this is it. 

2128
01:54:20,680 --> 01:54:24,320
It's time since now go, you 
know, with all the competitions,

2129
01:54:24,320 --> 01:54:28,480
the shaft really is big and it 
is long, tall, all the things. 

2130
01:54:29,760 --> 01:54:33,840
But the way I see it is the 
CrossFit Games, you are the 

2131
01:54:33,840 --> 01:54:35,520
pinnacle of the sport. 
You find the fittest on Earth. 

2132
01:54:35,680 --> 01:54:37,720
Everyone knows the title, 
everyone knows what to turn to 

2133
01:54:37,760 --> 01:54:40,440
at that point. 
And I watch a lot of track right

2134
01:54:40,440 --> 01:54:43,640
now and to compare it, the 
crossword Games is the Olympics,

2135
01:54:43,720 --> 01:54:44,920
right? 
You want to come home with the 

2136
01:54:44,920 --> 01:54:46,240
Olympic gold? 
You want to be the fittest on 

2137
01:54:46,240 --> 01:54:48,000
Earth. 
We have Rogue where it's like 

2138
01:54:48,000 --> 01:54:50,240
the World Championships happens 
every year, but it's one of the 

2139
01:54:50,240 --> 01:54:54,680
biggest meets you can go to or 
competitions. 

2140
01:54:54,760 --> 01:54:57,200
For our sake. 
And then you have WFP, which 

2141
01:54:57,200 --> 01:54:58,840
would be more like the Diamond 
League, and you have all the 

2142
01:54:58,840 --> 01:55:02,040
best athletes there all the 
time, consistent season. 

2143
01:55:03,000 --> 01:55:04,600
Yeah, they're throwing out. 
They're throwing out money in 

2144
01:55:04,600 --> 01:55:08,480
the Diamond League and winning. 
That is a big deal because not 

2145
01:55:08,480 --> 01:55:13,000
only do you get prize money, you
get to grow your brand, whatever

2146
01:55:13,000 --> 01:55:16,760
it might be, continue to compete
and establish dominance on your 

2147
01:55:16,760 --> 01:55:18,320
competitors. 
And I think all of those things 

2148
01:55:18,400 --> 01:55:20,680
are great opportunities. 
That's kind of how I see the 

2149
01:55:20,680 --> 01:55:23,200
shaft that's. 
How you see the shaft? 

2150
01:55:24,040 --> 01:55:27,760
Barry Mcconnor is Dallin 
sponsored by Tier. 

2151
01:55:28,680 --> 01:55:30,960
Maybe we're not sure we should 
ask them. 

2152
01:55:31,360 --> 01:55:37,040
But now I think the next 
question should be, do the 

2153
01:55:37,040 --> 01:55:41,400
organizers and the people in 
charge of the WFP, do they see 

2154
01:55:41,400 --> 01:55:44,480
it as the Diamond League? 
Because it's easy for the 

2155
01:55:44,480 --> 01:55:48,760
athletes to say that it's easy. 
And if I was an athlete that had

2156
01:55:48,760 --> 01:55:50,720
a pro card and all this stuff, I
would too. 

2157
01:55:50,720 --> 01:55:53,280
It's free money that I'm 
getting, right? 

2158
01:55:53,840 --> 01:55:56,720
And like all the Instagram, all 
the Instagram videos of the 

2159
01:55:56,720 --> 01:55:59,600
athletes talking about the WFP, 
they're paying them. 

2160
01:56:00,080 --> 01:56:02,280
You're not going to say bad 
things about people who are 

2161
01:56:02,280 --> 01:56:08,280
paying you. 
But if if the WFP came out and 

2162
01:56:08,280 --> 01:56:12,320
said that's exactly what we are,
we're we're the Diamond League. 

2163
01:56:12,480 --> 01:56:16,160
We are not trying. 
We're not what the CrossFit 

2164
01:56:16,160 --> 01:56:20,480
Games are like. 
We want to one day, we want to 

2165
01:56:20,480 --> 01:56:23,520
grow, and if we can grow and 
have the most prize money, maybe

2166
01:56:23,520 --> 01:56:27,240
we can replace it eventually. 
Like even if they had that game 

2167
01:56:27,240 --> 01:56:29,000
planned. 
Well, there's more money in the 

2168
01:56:29,000 --> 01:56:30,360
Diamond League than the 
Olympics. 

2169
01:56:30,640 --> 01:56:32,360
Right. 
And I think I'm not looking like

2170
01:56:32,360 --> 01:56:35,240
a strongman, like where the 
Rogue Invitational has way more 

2171
01:56:35,240 --> 01:56:38,240
money for strongman than the 
actual World's Strongest Man. 

2172
01:56:38,520 --> 01:56:41,000
But there's only one title 
that's the world's Strongest 

2173
01:56:41,000 --> 01:56:42,240
Man. 
It doesn't even matter that that

2174
01:56:42,240 --> 01:56:44,440
one has more money. 
Obviously all the big people 

2175
01:56:44,440 --> 01:56:48,120
want to do it, but it doesn't. 
It's not the title, right? 

2176
01:56:49,080 --> 01:56:54,160
But if the organizers looked at 
it like that, I think everybody 

2177
01:56:54,160 --> 01:56:56,160
could be. 
I think everybody would be all 

2178
01:56:56,160 --> 01:57:00,320
about the WFPI. 
Don't think they do. 

2179
01:57:00,720 --> 01:57:02,560
I think the athletes look at it 
like that. 

2180
01:57:02,560 --> 01:57:05,960
I think if it was that, it would
be great and I'm all for it. 

2181
01:57:07,080 --> 01:57:11,040
I think what you guys are 
alluding to or know or whatever,

2182
01:57:11,040 --> 01:57:14,880
or rumors, the organizers don't 
feel that way. 

2183
01:57:15,240 --> 01:57:17,680
Go ahead. 
I want to spend you have 

2184
01:57:17,680 --> 01:57:20,040
something before I go off. 
Would you agree with that 

2185
01:57:20,040 --> 01:57:22,920
though, that if it was like 
that, you'd be all about it if 

2186
01:57:22,920 --> 01:57:27,720
that's truly was what it was? 
Yes, somebody made a point to me

2187
01:57:27,720 --> 01:57:32,200
that they asked some of the 
athletes when they left, you 

2188
01:57:32,200 --> 01:57:34,120
know how you feel about it. 
And they were like, oh, it was 

2189
01:57:34,120 --> 01:57:36,640
good. 
And he was like, was it really 

2190
01:57:36,640 --> 01:57:40,000
good? 
Like or are you like, if I went,

2191
01:57:40,000 --> 01:57:44,040
if you, if you went to like a 
semi final and like I asked you 

2192
01:57:44,040 --> 01:57:46,200
how it was and it was good, you 
would say like it was good. 

2193
01:57:47,000 --> 01:57:49,080
And that that levity in the 
good. 

2194
01:57:49,400 --> 01:57:52,440
He was like, I think like that's
the bottom paid for side of it. 

2195
01:57:52,440 --> 01:57:56,840
Is that the the money going 
towards this is like paying for 

2196
01:57:56,840 --> 01:58:02,240
that, that faith and that seeing
things through roads, colored 

2197
01:58:02,240 --> 01:58:05,720
glasses. 
Now to hit on what John's saying

2198
01:58:05,720 --> 01:58:10,160
about they want to be the 
Diamond League or whatever, they

2199
01:58:10,160 --> 01:58:13,360
100% don't. 
I I said they. 

2200
01:58:13,480 --> 01:58:15,800
Should be. 
That's what they should want to 

2201
01:58:15,800 --> 01:58:17,600
be. 
That's not what they want. 

2202
01:58:17,720 --> 01:58:20,760
I'm I'm saying we can get behind
it if they were and they're not,

2203
01:58:20,760 --> 01:58:26,640
and that's why we're not behind.
It I I understand OK, they it 

2204
01:58:26,640 --> 01:58:32,120
was not a secret to like I I'm 
getting rather frustrated 

2205
01:58:32,120 --> 01:58:34,160
because I've heard people say it
since is like they're not 

2206
01:58:34,160 --> 01:58:37,720
competing with CrossFit. 
It is not a secret to those who 

2207
01:58:37,720 --> 01:58:42,640
are there that they are 
competing with CrossFit. 

2208
01:58:42,640 --> 01:58:45,080
If you just look at like market 
share, like they are in 

2209
01:58:45,080 --> 01:58:50,120
competition with CrossFit, they 
are like they're taking sponsors

2210
01:58:50,120 --> 01:58:52,400
who would otherwise go to other 
events. 

2211
01:58:52,400 --> 01:58:55,240
Now I'm not saying like sponsors
shouldn't go to the best events.

2212
01:58:55,240 --> 01:58:57,520
They should. 
But what I'm saying is is like 

2213
01:58:57,960 --> 01:59:03,760
beyond just market share, they 
are gunning for taking over the 

2214
01:59:03,760 --> 01:59:08,360
CrossFit sphere. 
This is where I start to have an

2215
01:59:08,360 --> 01:59:10,120
issue. 
I don't care like run a good 

2216
01:59:10,120 --> 01:59:11,160
event. 
Like, that's great. 

2217
01:59:12,200 --> 01:59:14,240
I care about all the other 
things that matter. 

2218
01:59:14,240 --> 01:59:19,080
And to me, and I think what I 
summed it up best, when I talked

2219
01:59:19,080 --> 01:59:22,360
to somebody notable in the 
space, they were like, I thought

2220
01:59:22,360 --> 01:59:24,800
you hate, hated this and. 
Or. 

2221
01:59:26,120 --> 01:59:29,240
That no, not in WFP. 
It took me a little while to 

2222
01:59:29,240 --> 01:59:31,400
articulate it. 
They they were like, it seems 

2223
01:59:31,400 --> 01:59:34,000
like a concerted effort amongst 
your group that you didn't cover

2224
01:59:34,000 --> 01:59:36,960
this and they were like, do you 
hate, do you really hate the 

2225
01:59:36,960 --> 01:59:38,600
WFP? 
And I said, I'm not going to 

2226
01:59:38,600 --> 01:59:42,880
speak for the group, but I think
for me, what I summarize all 

2227
01:59:42,880 --> 01:59:50,360
this as is until we know what it
looks like around CrossFit, we 

2228
01:59:50,360 --> 01:59:53,560
are going to be hesitant. 
The thing that matters most to 

2229
01:59:53,560 --> 01:59:57,720
me is the nugget of CrossFit. 
We're changing lives. 

2230
01:59:57,960 --> 02:00:01,920
We're fixing all that and, and, 
and the fruits that come out of 

2231
02:00:01,920 --> 02:00:07,760
CrossFit, if they are in 
competition with CrossFit, this 

2232
02:00:07,760 --> 02:00:13,160
is detrimental to all of that. 
The longer the bleed goes on of 

2233
02:00:13,160 --> 02:00:17,000
the affiliates that is on 
CrossFit, but it doesn't help 

2234
02:00:17,000 --> 02:00:19,800
when others might be leaving to 
be a WFP affiliate. 

2235
02:00:22,080 --> 02:00:26,040
If WFP takes over, those 
affiliates starts doing all 

2236
02:00:26,040 --> 02:00:27,480
that, that's a drain off of 
CrossFit. 

2237
02:00:27,480 --> 02:00:30,440
And at the end of the day, like 
if everybody left and what 

2238
02:00:30,440 --> 02:00:34,520
became a WWFP affiliate 
tomorrow, at the end of the day,

2239
02:00:34,520 --> 02:00:37,960
WFP doesn't hold anything. 
They do CrossFit, but they don't

2240
02:00:37,960 --> 02:00:41,800
have that centralized 
methodology and spirit and 

2241
02:00:41,800 --> 02:00:44,800
mission that CrossFit has. 
They don't have the religion. 

2242
02:00:46,280 --> 02:00:48,760
They don't have the religion and
faith of all of that. 

2243
02:00:49,200 --> 02:00:52,000
And so we need the mothership to
survive. 

2244
02:00:52,360 --> 02:00:55,600
And while I don't work for 
CrossFit, nor am I fucking paid 

2245
02:00:55,600 --> 02:01:01,920
by CrossFit or anyone I know 
paid by CrossFit, we care about 

2246
02:01:02,000 --> 02:01:05,000
that. 
And we equally throw out shots 

2247
02:01:05,000 --> 02:01:06,920
at CrossFit. 
It's not like we have just been 

2248
02:01:06,920 --> 02:01:09,600
like totally hype on HQ this 
whole time. 

2249
02:01:09,760 --> 02:01:12,280
Like we care about that mission.
We care about the centralized 

2250
02:01:12,280 --> 02:01:14,360
part of it, of what that mission
is. 

2251
02:01:14,360 --> 02:01:18,000
And if, if WFP is gunning for 
that, this will bleed out the 

2252
02:01:18,000 --> 02:01:21,160
entire system to death. 
It will crash because CrossFit 

2253
02:01:21,160 --> 02:01:23,160
won't quit. 
WFP won't quit. 

2254
02:01:23,200 --> 02:01:25,480
And guess what? 
It's just going to demolish the 

2255
02:01:25,480 --> 02:01:28,680
entire thing. 
So the longer this goes on, the 

2256
02:01:28,680 --> 02:01:33,160
worse it's going to get. 
No, I, I, yes, you, you said 

2257
02:01:33,160 --> 02:01:35,440
that perfectly. 
Like, first of all, I want to 

2258
02:01:35,440 --> 02:01:40,320
address I didn't post things 
because I was traveling for 

2259
02:01:40,320 --> 02:01:42,560
work. 
That's why I was not on the show

2260
02:01:42,560 --> 02:01:44,720
Wednesday. 
I got back on Friday. 

2261
02:01:44,720 --> 02:01:49,440
I didn't feel well, like 
exhausted from doing other stuff

2262
02:01:49,720 --> 02:01:53,640
not related to the barbell spin.
I just didn't have time. 

2263
02:01:53,680 --> 02:01:57,280
Like I do it like I share what I
can. 

2264
02:01:57,520 --> 02:02:00,320
It wasn't that I was trying to 
avoid the world fitness project.

2265
02:02:01,200 --> 02:02:03,880
I didn't do anything for French 
throw down either. 

2266
02:02:05,120 --> 02:02:08,240
Like, yeah. 
So Like Silence was not trying 

2267
02:02:08,240 --> 02:02:11,280
to boycott anything. 
We didn't talk about the French 

2268
02:02:11,320 --> 02:02:14,720
throw down on on the show. 
We're not talking about TFX that

2269
02:02:14,720 --> 02:02:19,520
starts tomorrow like we. 
Not only did we not talk about 

2270
02:02:19,520 --> 02:02:24,320
it, the people who are throwing 
shade at us for not covering 

2271
02:02:24,480 --> 02:02:29,800
either one well. 
He won hosted French Throwdown. 

2272
02:02:30,480 --> 02:02:34,680
In the the app is the the least 
participated he won we've ever 

2273
02:02:34,680 --> 02:02:37,480
run. 
So it's like, throw shade at us.

2274
02:02:37,480 --> 02:02:40,160
You don't care. 
You didn't care to play. 

2275
02:02:41,040 --> 02:02:45,120
Yeah, Yeah. 
So we didn't. 

2276
02:02:45,120 --> 02:02:47,880
Just not cover world fitness 
prob we didn't cover. 

2277
02:02:47,880 --> 02:02:52,720
Anything. 
So, yeah, yeah. 

2278
02:02:54,600 --> 02:02:55,800
To John. 
'S point. 

2279
02:02:57,560 --> 02:02:58,760
They also. 
Talked about it on Training 

2280
02:02:58,760 --> 02:03:00,720
Think tank. 
Let me pull it up here. 

2281
02:03:02,400 --> 02:03:06,680
I think when you are paid you 
say things differently when 

2282
02:03:06,680 --> 02:03:10,040
asked versus behind the scenes. 
And and this kind of slipped 

2283
02:03:10,040 --> 02:03:13,080
out. 
They asked. 

2284
02:03:13,080 --> 02:03:15,000
Laurie Winkelman asks. 
How did the lighting affect 

2285
02:03:15,000 --> 02:03:16,920
things? 
For the athletes, I heard a 

2286
02:03:16,920 --> 02:03:19,240
decent amount. 
Of complaints on there were 

2287
02:03:19,240 --> 02:03:23,360
three GHDS they said going down 
light straight in the eye, 

2288
02:03:23,360 --> 02:03:26,720
sitting up light straight in the
eye climbs yeah at rope climbs, 

2289
02:03:26,720 --> 02:03:29,840
which they said was a little bit
more sketchy and nobody 

2290
02:03:29,840 --> 02:03:33,520
complained about it in person on
the jerk, but I heard people 

2291
02:03:33,520 --> 02:03:37,240
commenting on it that it was so 
the the rule for the jerk was at

2292
02:03:37,240 --> 02:03:42,920
the. 
Whoops when I posted a video. 

2293
02:03:42,920 --> 02:03:45,520
Which was me watching the. 
Live stream. 

2294
02:03:46,560 --> 02:03:51,280
And I couldn't see anything 
because it was too dark and I 

2295
02:03:51,280 --> 02:03:54,800
saw videos of others post like 
from the the. 

2296
02:03:54,800 --> 02:03:58,280
Venue, right, It didn't. 
Look as dark on the phone 

2297
02:03:58,280 --> 02:04:00,560
coverage or whatever. 
But if I'm watching the screen, 

2298
02:04:00,640 --> 02:04:04,880
I want to be able to see the 
athletes and I couldn't see who 

2299
02:04:04,880 --> 02:04:09,200
was in what lane. 
It was like you back out of the 

2300
02:04:09,200 --> 02:04:10,640
spotlight. 
You couldn't see it. 

2301
02:04:10,760 --> 02:04:16,040
Like the shadows were bad. 
But then everybody, everybody on

2302
02:04:16,040 --> 02:04:17,920
the on the post, if you go look 
at some of the athletes. 

2303
02:04:17,920 --> 02:04:19,200
Like Oh no, this the lighting 
was. 

2304
02:04:19,200 --> 02:04:22,720
Great, that's what I want. 
Yet back in the back, when 

2305
02:04:22,720 --> 02:04:25,960
they're talking to their coaches
and others amongst themselves, 

2306
02:04:26,520 --> 02:04:30,480
they're complaining about the 
lights in their eyes. 

2307
02:04:31,720 --> 02:04:33,640
The rope climbs. 
Are sketched 'cause you look. 

2308
02:04:33,640 --> 02:04:35,320
Up and there's a spotlight 
coming straight. 

2309
02:04:35,320 --> 02:04:37,360
Down from that you can't. 
See exactly where you're 

2310
02:04:37,360 --> 02:04:38,680
grabbing or where you're going 
to hit. 

2311
02:04:39,480 --> 02:04:41,800
First of all, everybody's 
complaining about safety. 

2312
02:04:41,800 --> 02:04:46,400
That's a safety issue. 
But to John's point, you're we 

2313
02:04:46,400 --> 02:04:48,440
heard zero complaints about it. 
Why? 

2314
02:04:48,640 --> 02:04:52,280
Because 40 of the the 100 
athletes were paid and everybody

2315
02:04:52,280 --> 02:04:54,000
wants us to succeed. 
That was there. 

2316
02:04:56,000 --> 02:04:58,600
I don't want it to fail, but you
have to be honest with yourself 

2317
02:04:58,600 --> 02:05:00,280
that. 
The lighting was not good on the

2318
02:05:00,280 --> 02:05:04,640
live. 
Stream it just wasn't it wasn't 

2319
02:05:04,640 --> 02:05:06,200
and like you have to make it 
better and. 

2320
02:05:07,200 --> 02:05:10,360
Like the the different color of.
Christmas tree lights, whatever.

2321
02:05:10,360 --> 02:05:14,640
Like fine, but like you go look 
at any, I dare you to go back 

2322
02:05:14,640 --> 02:05:18,920
and look at a CrossFit Games 
venue, right? 

2323
02:05:19,360 --> 02:05:23,520
And seeing the crowd, there's 
something to see in the crowd 

2324
02:05:23,520 --> 02:05:29,080
cheering in front of you, right?
Like Noah said, Like, oh, you. 

2325
02:05:29,080 --> 02:05:31,560
Just didn't, you could hear. 
Them, but you couldn't see them.

2326
02:05:32,160 --> 02:05:34,560
How many times does a Games 
athlete go across the finish 

2327
02:05:34,560 --> 02:05:37,400
line and there's people right 
there in front giving them high 

2328
02:05:37,400 --> 02:05:39,040
fives, cheering in front of 
them. 

2329
02:05:39,600 --> 02:05:43,160
They hugged their spouse or 
whatever, and it's a huge, 

2330
02:05:43,400 --> 02:05:45,640
awesome moment. 
You got zero of that. 

2331
02:05:45,920 --> 02:05:49,000
And I complained about Rogue. 
I thought it was too dark. 

2332
02:05:50,240 --> 02:05:52,720
I felt like you couldn't tell 
that what the atmosphere was and

2333
02:05:52,720 --> 02:05:54,920
everybody said the. 
Atmosphere is great there. 

2334
02:05:57,800 --> 02:05:59,840
We we couldn't tell on the live 
stream I. 

2335
02:05:59,840 --> 02:06:02,400
Complained about rogue from that
I don't like that darkness and I

2336
02:06:02,400 --> 02:06:04,120
think. 
Framework events did both. 

2337
02:06:06,440 --> 02:06:07,800
It's their signature. 
Huh? 

2338
02:06:07,880 --> 02:06:08,600
Turn off. 
It's a. 

2339
02:06:09,080 --> 02:06:10,120
Let's draw. 
Go ahead. 

2340
02:06:10,160 --> 02:06:10,600
Go. 
Ahead spin. 

2341
02:06:10,760 --> 02:06:16,680
Sorry I you have. 
To like I'm watching this as. 

2342
02:06:17,280 --> 02:06:19,480
A fan this weekend. 
I didn't I didn't cover it. 

2343
02:06:19,680 --> 02:06:21,520
I'm not doing anything other 
than just watching the live 

2344
02:06:21,520 --> 02:06:29,000
stream when I had time and I, 
you know, I, you when, when we 

2345
02:06:29,000 --> 02:06:30,320
call. 
Something out it's. 

2346
02:06:30,320 --> 02:06:32,360
Not because we're hating, it's 
because we're this is what we're

2347
02:06:32,360 --> 02:06:34,160
seeing. 
We're not the only ones. 

2348
02:06:34,880 --> 02:06:42,280
And so you have to, you can't 
confuse A criticism with hate. 

2349
02:06:43,120 --> 02:06:45,040
No. 
And that's the thing that people

2350
02:06:45,040 --> 02:06:47,240
don't like that we do is we will
openly. 

2351
02:06:47,240 --> 02:06:50,600
Criticize just like we've openly
criticized CrossFit for years, 

2352
02:06:51,080 --> 02:06:52,640
but it's like we it's because we
wanted to be better. 

2353
02:06:52,640 --> 02:06:55,280
It's only because we are trying 
to hate it. 

2354
02:06:55,760 --> 02:06:57,200
John. 
Sorry, John. 

2355
02:06:57,520 --> 02:07:00,280
Let's let's draw lines then, 
because you guys say that. 

2356
02:07:00,280 --> 02:07:01,840
The you guys, you guys. 
Like like. 

2357
02:07:01,840 --> 02:07:04,560
I just I want I. 
Want a definitive stance, not 

2358
02:07:04,560 --> 02:07:08,120
even just for people, but for 
me, because I don't know where 

2359
02:07:08,200 --> 02:07:10,440
we are. 
I know, I know. 

2360
02:07:10,440 --> 02:07:12,320
I was confused. 
I No, no. 

2361
02:07:12,320 --> 02:07:14,280
Here, here, me out, here, me 
out. 

2362
02:07:14,280 --> 02:07:15,920
Ben, you just said it's not. 
That I don't. 

2363
02:07:15,920 --> 02:07:19,080
Want it to succeed if they're 
definitively against CrossFit, 

2364
02:07:19,080 --> 02:07:20,960
do you not not want them to 
succeed? 

2365
02:07:21,360 --> 02:07:24,880
Because I I'm with you. 
If it's if it's like they don't 

2366
02:07:24,880 --> 02:07:27,720
want they want to take over 
CrossFit if the open. 

2367
02:07:27,720 --> 02:07:31,240
I'm a full on believer if the 
open is no more, which would 

2368
02:07:31,240 --> 02:07:34,200
happen if WFP was the leading. 
Like that's what that's the 

2369
02:07:34,200 --> 02:07:38,120
leading thing in fitness, right?
Even if say they did it would 

2370
02:07:38,120 --> 02:07:39,880
like that's the big thing for 
fitness. 

2371
02:07:40,160 --> 02:07:43,400
If the open goes away, it will 
be the death of CrossFit. 

2372
02:07:43,480 --> 02:07:46,520
I fully believe that because 
then there is no community. 

2373
02:07:47,120 --> 02:07:49,680
There is none. 
And I know some people disagree 

2374
02:07:49,680 --> 02:07:51,600
with that and say the affiliates
will always survive. 

2375
02:07:51,840 --> 02:07:56,080
They I I think it would be the 
death of CrossFit as we know it,

2376
02:07:56,360 --> 02:08:00,200
especially as a sport for sure. 
But I think it would bleed even 

2377
02:08:00,200 --> 02:08:03,960
deeper. 
So if you think, if you think 

2378
02:08:03,960 --> 02:08:07,520
for whatever reasons and we can 
talk more in depth on it after 

2379
02:08:07,520 --> 02:08:11,640
the show, like that's that's the
goal, that's what they want. 

2380
02:08:11,640 --> 02:08:16,120
There is no, there's not going 
to be a happy party after this. 

2381
02:08:16,120 --> 02:08:21,880
Like it's not there's no chance 
we can't live in harmony or like

2382
02:08:21,880 --> 02:08:24,560
two different things in the 
athletes and it's going to be 

2383
02:08:24,560 --> 02:08:28,160
good for the athletes in the 
future that coincide with the 

2384
02:08:28,160 --> 02:08:30,640
CrossFit games. 
If you don't think that can 

2385
02:08:30,640 --> 02:08:35,960
happen, why? 
And then let's let's have a 

2386
02:08:35,960 --> 02:08:38,800
stance on This is why we're not 
going to cover them because they

2387
02:08:38,960 --> 02:08:40,200
they. 
Want the death of? 

2388
02:08:40,200 --> 02:08:43,480
CrossFit. 
And if they don't, then tell me 

2389
02:08:43,480 --> 02:08:44,720
what we're doing. 
Like what? 

2390
02:08:45,720 --> 02:08:47,400
I think they are, I think. 
I think the lie. 

2391
02:08:47,400 --> 02:08:50,520
I think saying they don't want 
to they could want. 

2392
02:08:50,520 --> 02:08:53,480
To coexist with CrossFit is not 
true. 

2393
02:08:54,560 --> 02:08:56,800
And you think the athletes are 
blind to this? 

2394
02:08:56,960 --> 02:08:58,800
They're lying to the. 
Athletes. 

2395
02:08:59,800 --> 02:09:02,520
I I think that they I don't 
think it's a lie, they just 

2396
02:09:02,520 --> 02:09:04,480
haven't stated it. 
But the athletes are. 

2397
02:09:04,480 --> 02:09:08,320
Blind to it. 
Some of them probably, I think. 

2398
02:09:08,480 --> 02:09:09,960
A lot of them. 
I don't think it's a. 

2399
02:09:09,960 --> 02:09:12,520
Bad thing for the athletes. 
To be blind to it if you're. 

2400
02:09:12,520 --> 02:09:15,040
Somebody's giving me $30,000. 
I'm taking it and thinking 

2401
02:09:15,040 --> 02:09:18,360
they're great too, but they're 
blind to the fact that what 

2402
02:09:18,360 --> 02:09:21,960
they're trying to do big 
picture, and I think it just 

2403
02:09:21,960 --> 02:09:26,320
needs to be made clear that it's
not criticism. 

2404
02:09:26,640 --> 02:09:30,320
These people want to kill 
CrossFit for their own gain. 

2405
02:09:30,920 --> 02:09:34,960
Let we need to look at it like 
this is what it is and just make

2406
02:09:34,960 --> 02:09:37,640
it clear. 
And if the and the athletes, the

2407
02:09:37,640 --> 02:09:42,320
athletes need to know that 
because I think if they knew 

2408
02:09:42,320 --> 02:09:47,360
that they wouldn't be singing 
the graces of of WFPI don't do. 

2409
02:09:47,440 --> 02:09:50,720
I don't think Colton's going to 
randomly now that he's on or it 

2410
02:09:50,800 --> 02:09:52,960
might end. 
I don't think he's going to sing

2411
02:09:52,960 --> 02:09:56,040
the graces of WFPI think he's 
going to take their money and 

2412
02:09:56,040 --> 02:09:59,600
make fun of them. 
Watch this clip Real Quick is a 

2413
02:09:59,600 --> 02:10:02,320
competitor to WFP. 
Or do. 

2414
02:10:02,560 --> 02:10:05,200
Music is terrible 2. 
Separate things or is it? 

2415
02:10:05,200 --> 02:10:06,920
Two things that that can. 
Absolutely. 

2416
02:10:06,920 --> 02:10:08,800
Coexist, but there's no 
competitiveness. 

2417
02:10:08,880 --> 02:10:11,000
Right, well, how do you feel in 
regards to that? 

2418
02:10:11,280 --> 02:10:14,160
I'm just staying in my own lane.
And. 

2419
02:10:14,160 --> 02:10:16,360
Delivering on what our vision 
is, yeah. 

2420
02:10:16,760 --> 02:10:18,400
And I think the whole team would
do that. 

2421
02:10:18,400 --> 02:10:22,280
Like we have too much going on 
right now to worry about what 

2422
02:10:22,280 --> 02:10:24,600
other people are doing. 
They're saying in the media or 

2423
02:10:24,600 --> 02:10:29,240
other businesses, we'll focus on
delivering an incredible product

2424
02:10:29,240 --> 02:10:35,480
to our community. 
That is not the answer. 

2425
02:10:36,320 --> 02:10:38,120
That was being said three months
ago. 

2426
02:10:40,080 --> 02:10:43,040
And we've said the. 
Whole time 3. 

2427
02:10:43,040 --> 02:10:44,600
Months ago is no. 
And we want both. 

2428
02:10:44,600 --> 02:10:45,960
We want. 
The athletes to be able to do 

2429
02:10:45,960 --> 02:10:47,600
both. 
We just want more opportunities 

2430
02:10:47,600 --> 02:10:49,520
for them. 
Give them up now, have more 

2431
02:10:49,520 --> 02:10:51,760
money now. 
It's I'm only focused on myself.

2432
02:10:51,760 --> 02:10:55,240
I want to not worry about what 
other people are doing. 

2433
02:10:55,880 --> 02:10:57,600
I think Will should. 
Talk to the rest of people on 

2434
02:10:57,600 --> 02:10:58,160
his. 
Team. 

2435
02:11:00,400 --> 02:11:05,920
Look, we have seen it the last. 
Month athletes have withdrawn 

2436
02:11:05,920 --> 02:11:10,440
from competitions. 
Athletes have picked and choose 

2437
02:11:10,440 --> 02:11:16,240
which way they want to go. 
It it directly competed against 

2438
02:11:16,240 --> 02:11:18,120
the. 
French throw down and you're not

2439
02:11:18,120 --> 02:11:19,320
going to tell me. 
That you didn't know the 

2440
02:11:19,320 --> 02:11:21,720
CrossFit schedule so you just 
had to pick a date. 

2441
02:11:23,240 --> 02:11:26,720
I'm almost positive they said 
that that they had to make a 

2442
02:11:26,720 --> 02:11:27,960
change. 
To the schedule because. 

2443
02:11:27,960 --> 02:11:31,680
It was going to be May 17th in 
Oklahoma City and they moved it 

2444
02:11:31,680 --> 02:11:37,800
up a week right at the last four
years, May 17th has had a semi 

2445
02:11:37,800 --> 02:11:41,360
final. 
Don't lie that you're doing 

2446
02:11:41,360 --> 02:11:45,560
that. 
If if you if you don't want to 

2447
02:11:45,560 --> 02:11:46,800
compete with it, you put it in 
the. 

2448
02:11:46,800 --> 02:11:49,880
Offseason you put. 
It in between August and 

2449
02:11:49,880 --> 02:11:52,960
January, right? 
That's the more opportunities. 

2450
02:11:53,680 --> 02:11:58,280
You don't put it staggering and 
on top of the CrossFit game 

2451
02:11:58,280 --> 02:12:02,320
season if you don't have a 
motive to take it over, right? 

2452
02:12:02,480 --> 02:12:05,320
And then you have people like 
Pat Velner who comes in there 

2453
02:12:05,320 --> 02:12:08,320
underprepared. 
You have Laura Horvath who 

2454
02:12:08,320 --> 02:12:10,600
throws A temper tantrum on her 
last lunge. 

2455
02:12:11,560 --> 02:12:14,960
You have athletes who don't 
appear to be as trying as hard 

2456
02:12:14,960 --> 02:12:17,880
as they could because in 
Kotler's terms, it's a season. 

2457
02:12:18,360 --> 02:12:20,720
They're not fighting for that 
one spot to make it to the 

2458
02:12:20,720 --> 02:12:25,080
Games, to make their season. 
It's not the playoffs, so they 

2459
02:12:25,080 --> 02:12:29,920
back off if they don't feel like
pushing as hard as they can and 

2460
02:12:29,920 --> 02:12:31,680
you have people that have 
competed multiple weeks in a 

2461
02:12:31,680 --> 02:12:34,560
row. 
And they don't come in fresh. 

2462
02:12:34,760 --> 02:12:39,880
You see subpar from what you're 
used to, and then world in this 

2463
02:12:39,880 --> 02:12:41,920
project is going to add another 
event next year. 

2464
02:12:44,240 --> 02:12:46,120
How does it make sense? 
Like athletes are already trying

2465
02:12:46,120 --> 02:12:48,960
to figure it out. 
Gazan skipped. 

2466
02:12:48,960 --> 02:12:51,840
Semifinals because she couldn't 
do multiple weeks in a row. 

2467
02:12:52,840 --> 02:12:54,360
She didn't do mayhem because she
had to. 

2468
02:12:54,440 --> 02:12:56,760
She wanted to focus on this and 
they had a plan to. 

2469
02:12:56,760 --> 02:13:00,440
Try to do. 
Both, but I asked on Clydesdale,

2470
02:13:00,440 --> 02:13:03,920
I said how much is too much and.
And Kotler couldn't. 

2471
02:13:04,040 --> 02:13:05,840
Couldn't answer that. 
They're trying to figure that 

2472
02:13:05,840 --> 02:13:08,120
out right now and you're going 
to add another another 

2473
02:13:08,120 --> 02:13:10,720
competition. 
The only thing you can do is 

2474
02:13:10,720 --> 02:13:13,200
then split the. 
You have to make a decision. 

2475
02:13:13,200 --> 02:13:19,320
You can't do both well and all 
these athletes have had multiple

2476
02:13:19,320 --> 02:13:20,480
opportunities to. 
Compete. 

2477
02:13:20,720 --> 02:13:23,600
You could compete. 
At Wadapalooza in person, you 

2478
02:13:23,600 --> 02:13:26,920
could compete in semifinals, the
Games, Rogue, if you're good 

2479
02:13:26,920 --> 02:13:29,160
enough, which is all this is 
really matters about. 

2480
02:13:29,520 --> 02:13:31,960
You have Dubai Down Under 
championship. 

2481
02:13:33,400 --> 02:13:36,520
There's all kinds of in person 
competitions that are large 

2482
02:13:36,520 --> 02:13:41,360
enough and athletes skip them 
over and over and over again 

2483
02:13:41,360 --> 02:13:43,200
because they couldn't compete 
too much. 

2484
02:13:44,600 --> 02:13:47,760
And now you have a new league in
there and you're saying. 

2485
02:13:48,480 --> 02:13:50,280
Yeah, we're. 
Not we're not trying to compete.

2486
02:13:50,280 --> 02:13:52,280
We're going to put a competition
right in the middle of your 

2487
02:13:52,280 --> 02:13:57,440
schedule a month after in the 
same month as the games, and 

2488
02:13:57,440 --> 02:14:02,960
we're going to add 1 next year. 
Tell me you're not competing. 

2489
02:14:03,600 --> 02:14:04,920
Tell me you're not trying to 
blow it up. 

2490
02:14:05,000 --> 02:14:07,040
And we're going to come down 
with a watered down product. 

2491
02:14:07,040 --> 02:14:12,880
If half the athletes decide to 
go WFP route for $30,000 a year,

2492
02:14:13,160 --> 02:14:15,560
great. 
But if they come out and say it,

2493
02:14:15,880 --> 02:14:18,680
what then? 
Well, at least we know. 

2494
02:14:18,680 --> 02:14:21,600
What we're dealing with right 
now, we, we, we have to read. 

2495
02:14:21,600 --> 02:14:23,120
But I think you've kind of 
convinced. 

2496
02:14:23,160 --> 02:14:24,640
Yourself. 
That's what we're dealing with. 

2497
02:14:24,640 --> 02:14:26,520
So like, we are, we are. 
They just won't say it. 

2498
02:14:26,520 --> 02:14:29,520
I I'm saying, well, let's just 
talk about it like that's what 

2499
02:14:29,520 --> 02:14:31,320
it is. 
Well, it's OK, so they. 

2500
02:14:31,320 --> 02:14:35,240
Come out and they say, they say 
I need somebody this ask Will. 

2501
02:14:35,240 --> 02:14:37,880
Directly, do you want to take 
over the? 

2502
02:14:37,880 --> 02:14:41,200
CrossFit Spear and ultimately 
means the death of the CrossFit 

2503
02:14:41,200 --> 02:14:44,320
Games. 
I like just that question 

2504
02:14:44,320 --> 02:14:49,480
straightforward and not word 
salad answer like yes or no, you

2505
02:14:50,160 --> 02:14:52,360
know what I mean? 
And then just you answer the 

2506
02:14:52,360 --> 02:14:54,960
questions. 
What would that gain then? 

2507
02:14:56,200 --> 02:14:57,560
Well, that's what I'm asking, 
Spin. 

2508
02:14:57,560 --> 02:15:00,200
Like you, you're. 
Clearly convinced of this and 

2509
02:15:00,200 --> 02:15:01,120
I'm not. 
Saying you're wrong. 

2510
02:15:01,480 --> 02:15:05,480
I'm not saying you're wrong, I 
just wish we could not be 

2511
02:15:05,480 --> 02:15:08,160
selfish either things, you know 
what I mean? 

2512
02:15:08,160 --> 02:15:10,360
Like I wish it could just be 
another competition. 

2513
02:15:10,680 --> 02:15:15,400
It was well ran, probably not 
sustainable, but the competition

2514
02:15:15,400 --> 02:15:17,400
was good. 
I wanted to coexist. 

2515
02:15:17,400 --> 02:15:22,040
I wanted to be successful for 
the athletes, but it's WF PS 

2516
02:15:22,040 --> 02:15:26,720
fault if they're like they can't
accept what role they could 

2517
02:15:26,720 --> 02:15:27,840
have. 
They could have you. 

2518
02:15:27,880 --> 02:15:31,560
You understand what I'm saying 
like, and if they're not going 

2519
02:15:31,560 --> 02:15:34,040
to, I want it to be abundantly 
clear. 

2520
02:15:34,040 --> 02:15:36,400
And if that's what we're 
operating off of that this is 

2521
02:15:36,400 --> 02:15:42,320
what they're going to do, then 
let's not talk about the Will's 

2522
02:15:42,320 --> 02:15:44,800
word salad. 
Let's not talk about like the 

2523
02:15:44,800 --> 02:15:48,960
inconsistencies we're there. 
They're trying to take over 

2524
02:15:48,960 --> 02:15:51,080
CrossFit. 
They don't want to. 

2525
02:15:51,080 --> 02:15:53,720
Say it, but they are. 
They don't say it's the 

2526
02:15:53,720 --> 02:15:56,400
athletes. 
Every single time we have an 

2527
02:15:56,400 --> 02:15:59,760
athlete on here, we should say, 
do you know you're being lied 

2528
02:15:59,760 --> 02:16:02,680
to? 
That should be the first 

2529
02:16:02,680 --> 02:16:04,840
question. 
And then see how they. 

2530
02:16:04,840 --> 02:16:07,480
Answer it and be. 
Like I know you're getting paid 

2531
02:16:07,480 --> 02:16:09,280
$30,000. 
You don't have to answer the 

2532
02:16:09,280 --> 02:16:12,480
question, but you are blind to 
what they want to do. 

2533
02:16:12,480 --> 02:16:14,760
They don't want CrossFit to be a
thing anymore. 

2534
02:16:15,920 --> 02:16:17,840
Like, that's how we should 
operate. 

2535
02:16:17,840 --> 02:16:20,560
We shouldn't be like, well, 
maybe you know what I mean? 

2536
02:16:20,560 --> 02:16:23,760
Like, it's already done. 
And we're convinced, is what I'm

2537
02:16:23,760 --> 02:16:25,800
saying. 
Like, let's make it clear all 

2538
02:16:25,800 --> 02:16:30,040
the way around. 
Dallon's answer to that question

2539
02:16:30,680 --> 02:16:33,639
is very telling. 
Like I had never heard somebody 

2540
02:16:33,639 --> 02:16:37,719
speak like that about the two 
because I think if every other 

2541
02:16:38,120 --> 02:16:41,360
communication, it's been world. 
Fitness projects where it's at. 

2542
02:16:41,360 --> 02:16:42,760
That's where I want to put my 
focus on. 

2543
02:16:45,160 --> 02:16:47,879
And to Dallin's statement it it 
to me. 

2544
02:16:47,879 --> 02:16:49,959
It sounds like, hey, I still 
want to win the CrossFit. 

2545
02:16:49,959 --> 02:16:53,200
Games I don't mind doing this 
because there's some money on 

2546
02:16:53,200 --> 02:16:56,480
the line and I'll compete and 
I'm fitness privileged. 

2547
02:16:56,760 --> 02:17:01,520
That's that's Tyler's words, not
mine or his, but I don't think 

2548
02:17:01,520 --> 02:17:04,360
it's sustainable. 
And if you listen to. 

2549
02:17:04,360 --> 02:17:05,719
Talking to Elite Fitness Tommy 
Marquez. 

2550
02:17:05,719 --> 02:17:10,240
Is like, oh, what if athletes go
to the TFX this weekend to get 

2551
02:17:10,240 --> 02:17:12,080
hurt and then they end up 
getting into the through the 

2552
02:17:12,080 --> 02:17:13,760
semifinals? 
They didn't have to compete. 

2553
02:17:14,920 --> 02:17:17,440
You can say the same thing about
going to World Fitness Project 

2554
02:17:18,080 --> 02:17:19,719
instead of going. 
To the games like somebody. 

2555
02:17:19,719 --> 02:17:22,760
Could have gotten hurt. 
Like Travis Mayer's hurt, 

2556
02:17:23,040 --> 02:17:27,520
Bethany Bethany Flores is hurt. 
Emily Rolfe sounds like she's 

2557
02:17:27,520 --> 02:17:29,719
hurt. 
Like what if they don't go to 

2558
02:17:29,719 --> 02:17:34,799
the CrossFit Games this year? 
Do you blame the athletes for? 

2559
02:17:35,600 --> 02:17:38,480
Trying to get theirs, no. 
I don't blame the athletes at 

2560
02:17:38,520 --> 02:17:40,200
all, but I don't think they 
should be. 

2561
02:17:42,600 --> 02:17:45,400
Lied to. 
I think World Fitness Project is

2562
02:17:45,400 --> 02:17:49,120
lying to them. 
I think Dallon is blind to 

2563
02:17:49,120 --> 02:17:51,840
what's really happening and I 
think he would admit that he's 

2564
02:17:51,840 --> 02:17:53,080
blind to what's really 
happening. 

2565
02:17:53,080 --> 02:17:54,840
I think he hopes it's the 
Diamond League. 

2566
02:17:54,840 --> 02:17:57,559
He wants that to be the case. 
That's why he answered it that 

2567
02:17:57,559 --> 02:18:01,160
way, because to him that's what 
it feels like. 

2568
02:18:01,480 --> 02:18:04,280
Like there's way for the world 
athletes to make money, but it's

2569
02:18:04,360 --> 02:18:09,120
not and it's a way from. 
Everything else they don't. 

2570
02:18:09,120 --> 02:18:11,040
See. 
They're not a part of, you know 

2571
02:18:11,040 --> 02:18:12,920
what I mean? 
So I think most of the athletes 

2572
02:18:12,920 --> 02:18:16,080
are are blind to this and I 
don't think it's their fault at 

2573
02:18:16,080 --> 02:18:19,400
all. 
Now, let me let me ask you, let 

2574
02:18:19,400 --> 02:18:21,200
me ask you this question. 
Hold on, hold on, hold on right 

2575
02:18:22,440 --> 02:18:23,760
here. 
Adidas is kind of a dope 

2576
02:18:23,760 --> 02:18:27,240
sponsor. 
If you watch Hiller's video, 

2577
02:18:27,879 --> 02:18:30,600
it's pretty. 
It sounds like they. 

2578
02:18:30,600 --> 02:18:33,760
Paid $0.00. 
Same with Noble. 

2579
02:18:34,120 --> 02:18:38,080
That's the rumor going on is 
that those guys paid $0.00. 

2580
02:18:41,000 --> 02:18:43,559
That's not a sponsor deal. 
Let. 

2581
02:18:48,360 --> 02:18:49,360
Me. 
Ask you what were you going to 

2582
02:18:49,360 --> 02:18:50,280
say? 
John, let me ask you this 

2583
02:18:50,280 --> 02:18:55,240
question if. 
If they were like, our goal is 

2584
02:18:55,240 --> 02:18:57,559
to be the biggest. 
Thing in CrossFit. 

2585
02:18:57,959 --> 02:19:00,840
The CrossFit Games can still be 
the CrossFit Games, but we're 

2586
02:19:00,840 --> 02:19:03,639
going to operate and we want it.
We want to eventually be the 

2587
02:19:03,639 --> 02:19:05,920
biggest thing. 
And like they were up front 

2588
02:19:05,920 --> 02:19:07,959
about saying that and they're 
not trying to replace the 

2589
02:19:07,959 --> 02:19:09,280
CrossFit Games. 
They're still going to be the 

2590
02:19:09,280 --> 02:19:10,400
open. 
They're still going to be like, 

2591
02:19:10,400 --> 02:19:14,360
however you get to the CrossFit 
Games, but like how Rogue Rogue 

2592
02:19:14,360 --> 02:19:16,959
is, you know, the winner of 
Rogue wins basically the same 

2593
02:19:16,959 --> 02:19:19,240
amount as the CrossFit Games. 
They're close enough, right? 

2594
02:19:19,799 --> 02:19:23,920
If Rogue was $500,000, it would 
be the most, but I still think 

2595
02:19:23,920 --> 02:19:25,559
the CrossFit Games would be the 
CrossFit Games. 

2596
02:19:25,799 --> 02:19:29,520
Rogue has never tried to step on
CrossFit Games toes ever, right?

2597
02:19:29,520 --> 02:19:31,600
They have great relationship, 
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. 

2598
02:19:32,559 --> 02:19:35,600
Do you think it's possible for 
the World Fitness project to 

2599
02:19:35,600 --> 02:19:40,280
want to do that, for that to be 
their goal and it can coexist. 

2600
02:19:40,280 --> 02:19:43,840
But like the strongman thing, 
like it's just it, it does get 

2601
02:19:43,840 --> 02:19:45,639
bigger than I don't think it's 
sustainable either. 

2602
02:19:45,639 --> 02:19:50,640
I'm just saying, I'm just saying
like on a cloud 9 future trip, 

2603
02:19:51,000 --> 02:19:55,160
do you think they could be what 
they want to be and then the 

2604
02:19:55,160 --> 02:19:58,720
CrossFit Games still be the 
CrossFit Games, the Open still 

2605
02:19:58,720 --> 02:20:01,200
be the open. 
You can't have you can't have 4 

2606
02:20:01,200 --> 02:20:06,040
plus competitions a year. 
And in that that interview that 

2607
02:20:06,040 --> 02:20:10,360
you saw there with Will, he's 
talking about even having on 

2608
02:20:10,360 --> 02:20:16,200
more or adding in person 
challenger qualifiers, not the 

2609
02:20:16,200 --> 02:20:18,760
online piece of things like 
adding. 

2610
02:20:18,760 --> 02:20:23,600
More and more and more. 
Like not going to work. 

2611
02:20:23,600 --> 02:20:29,680
Like you cannot do that. 
And I get Kotler on here right 

2612
02:20:29,680 --> 02:20:31,200
now, and he'd say I don't know 
how. 

2613
02:20:31,200 --> 02:20:32,720
Many times that Alex can. 
Compete. 

2614
02:20:32,880 --> 02:20:34,880
Alex is 23. 
She could probably compete as 

2615
02:20:34,880 --> 02:20:39,120
much as anybody else, but 
concerned about her injuries, 

2616
02:20:39,120 --> 02:20:40,920
concerned about overuse, 
concerned about. 

2617
02:20:40,920 --> 02:20:46,600
Burnout, all of that stuff. 
And as it is now, even if 

2618
02:20:46,600 --> 02:20:49,000
they're just four and they say 
we want to coexist, there's. 

2619
02:20:49,000 --> 02:20:51,920
Athletes making decisions. 
French throw down look at the 

2620
02:20:51,920 --> 02:20:57,080
field that just competed not 
even close to what semifinals 

2621
02:20:57,080 --> 02:20:59,320
was last year Why? 
Because all the European 

2622
02:20:59,320 --> 02:21:03,600
athletes that are still 
competing were in Indianapolis, 

2623
02:21:04,920 --> 02:21:07,800
right? 
So you, you, you're watering 

2624
02:21:07,800 --> 02:21:13,400
down the field in both cases. 
Because if it would have been. 

2625
02:21:13,400 --> 02:21:14,440
Nice. 
Maybe Brontoslaw? 

2626
02:21:14,440 --> 02:21:17,240
Would have competed in WFP. 
OK, that that probably adds to 

2627
02:21:17,240 --> 02:21:20,720
the challenger field or or the 
the pro field if he made it in 

2628
02:21:20,720 --> 02:21:24,800
the qualifier. 
Like those athletes could all be

2629
02:21:24,800 --> 02:21:27,120
in one spot, but they're not 
going to be because there's too 

2630
02:21:27,120 --> 02:21:28,920
many competitions that are going
to overlap. 

2631
02:21:29,040 --> 02:21:34,240
It's just not going to work. 
Clip this athletes be ready. 

2632
02:21:35,680 --> 02:21:38,440
Next year, the. 
WFP will have more. 

2633
02:21:38,440 --> 02:21:40,440
Events. 
And they will schedule. 

2634
02:21:40,440 --> 02:21:43,520
It during the CrossFit season 
with no regard. 

2635
02:21:44,080 --> 02:21:46,880
I'm not telling you that this 
might happen. 

2636
02:21:47,200 --> 02:21:52,960
This is 100% going to happen 
like on Syndicate on. 

2637
02:21:54,200 --> 02:22:00,120
An affiliate semi finals. 
Good chances any if you're going

2638
02:22:00,120 --> 02:22:01,560
to have one, if you're going to 
have one. 

2639
02:22:01,560 --> 02:22:04,960
Per quarter. 
It's going to line up pretty 

2640
02:22:04,960 --> 02:22:07,280
darn close. 
And you're you're telling me? 

2641
02:22:07,280 --> 02:22:10,640
That people can't adjust. 
Their training and and make it. 

2642
02:22:12,360 --> 02:22:16,120
Only a few can. 
So. 

2643
02:22:16,120 --> 02:22:20,040
John, you wanted a definitive. 
Statement of where I stand I'm. 

2644
02:22:20,040 --> 02:22:22,600
Not going to turn this into a 
red team versus a blue team 

2645
02:22:22,600 --> 02:22:25,200
thing. 
The thing I care about is is 

2646
02:22:25,560 --> 02:22:29,120
maybe the red team, if we're 
going to be 1, whatever color 

2647
02:22:29,120 --> 02:22:30,880
you want, green. 
Orange. 

2648
02:22:32,160 --> 02:22:34,240
Let's let's. 
Let's explicitly use red and 

2649
02:22:34,240 --> 02:22:40,440
blue, and I want to be red, OK? 
The well scenario. 

2650
02:22:40,440 --> 02:22:42,200
Three, which is new commenter, 
welcome to. 

2651
02:22:42,200 --> 02:22:45,680
The show scenario three, I doubt
it will happen Tyler dot dot dot

2652
02:22:45,680 --> 02:22:48,480
they're going to fold under the 
financial pressure. 

2653
02:22:49,360 --> 02:22:56,080
I will say this very, very 
clearly, billions of dollars at 

2654
02:22:56,080 --> 02:22:56,920
their. 
Disposal. 

2655
02:22:58,200 --> 02:23:03,000
Billions. 
I won't play the. 

2656
02:23:03,000 --> 02:23:06,080
Red team versus. 
Blue team game, I think some. 

2657
02:23:06,080 --> 02:23:08,240
Of the things they're trying to 
do, like some of their 

2658
02:23:08,240 --> 02:23:10,040
initiatives are good. 
You want to pay the athletes, 

2659
02:23:10,040 --> 02:23:12,160
you want to highlight people you
want to get you want them to 

2660
02:23:12,160 --> 02:23:15,160
give more team like 
opportunities for sponsorship or

2661
02:23:15,160 --> 02:23:17,040
highlight them that that's cool.
It's all great. 

2662
02:23:17,480 --> 02:23:21,800
Even with the the affiliate 
thing or the the world fitness, 

2663
02:23:21,920 --> 02:23:23,880
what's it called? 
Projects. 

2664
02:23:23,960 --> 02:23:27,600
Yeah, projects cool. 
It's like that's. 

2665
02:23:27,600 --> 02:23:29,320
Just CrossFit, that's what. 
It's doing. 

2666
02:23:29,560 --> 02:23:30,920
You knew what? 
It was called. 

2667
02:23:30,920 --> 02:23:34,640
Man, don't be 7. 
That's. 

2668
02:23:34,640 --> 02:23:35,480
A bit. 
Come on. 

2669
02:23:35,480 --> 02:23:37,120
No, I really. 
I really didn't know. 

2670
02:23:37,200 --> 02:23:38,760
No, go ahead. 
Go ahead. 

2671
02:23:38,760 --> 02:23:40,320
Look, look, look, look. 
You tried to. 

2672
02:23:40,320 --> 02:23:41,800
Take seven. 
You weren't sucking. 

2673
02:23:41,840 --> 02:23:47,240
Up like a madman right now. 
Dude, come on, it is trying to. 

2674
02:23:47,920 --> 02:23:50,320
It is the trying to destroy of. 
What we're all. 

2675
02:23:50,320 --> 02:23:54,560
After and you, I think they 
think this is a good idea and, 

2676
02:23:54,640 --> 02:23:58,320
and they are paying the athletes
to believe that what they're 

2677
02:23:58,320 --> 02:24:01,280
doing is the right thing. 
And I think if athletes step 

2678
02:24:01,280 --> 02:24:04,360
away and they look at the full, 
the full scope, John, you were 

2679
02:24:04,360 --> 02:24:06,520
saying like the athletes, they 
need to ask the questions or 

2680
02:24:06,520 --> 02:24:08,360
somebody in the comments was 
saying like the athletes should 

2681
02:24:08,360 --> 02:24:10,960
be smart enough to answer the 
questions they can answer or ask

2682
02:24:10,960 --> 02:24:13,280
questions all day. 
But if you're told a lie, you 

2683
02:24:13,280 --> 02:24:16,800
don't know any fucking better. 
And I was like, I don't. 

2684
02:24:16,920 --> 02:24:18,720
I don't blame the athletes at 
all. 

2685
02:24:18,800 --> 02:24:20,000
I think a few. 
Of them might. 

2686
02:24:20,000 --> 02:24:23,760
Know, but I think the vast 
majority of them are just trying

2687
02:24:23,760 --> 02:24:27,440
to do what's good for them. 
And it's like, I'm not asking 

2688
02:24:27,440 --> 02:24:30,520
you to take money out of your 
pocket to save some higher idea.

2689
02:24:30,720 --> 02:24:35,160
That's that's my job. 
But like, it's a lot more 

2690
02:24:35,160 --> 02:24:37,920
complicated than it seems. 
And the. 

2691
02:24:37,920 --> 02:24:42,440
Methodology and all that stuff 
that our ecosystem suffers the 

2692
02:24:42,440 --> 02:24:47,080
longer this goes on. 
Now there is a possibility in 

2693
02:24:47,080 --> 02:24:52,880
which WFP could buy CrossFit. 
That's very real, very real. 

2694
02:24:53,080 --> 02:24:54,200
And then what does that look 
like? 

2695
02:24:55,000 --> 02:24:56,720
What happens if they buy 
CrossFit? 

2696
02:24:57,800 --> 02:24:59,800
That that's what I just asked. 
I. 

2697
02:24:59,800 --> 02:25:02,960
Know I'm asking you guys. 
I wouldn't ask you the question.

2698
02:25:02,960 --> 02:25:05,680
If I knew the answer, Tyler. 
Then. 

2699
02:25:06,520 --> 02:25:12,120
What's the? 
Solution I I mean I might I I I 

2700
02:25:13,080 --> 02:25:14,920
I. 
Offered this conversation. 

2701
02:25:14,920 --> 02:25:17,320
To somebody. 
And I was like, hey, what if I 

2702
02:25:17,320 --> 02:25:20,680
kind of have to shut up if they 
do buy a CrossFit and they 

2703
02:25:20,680 --> 02:25:24,080
uphold the methodology and they 
said I don't think they will 

2704
02:25:24,880 --> 02:25:29,360
because ultimately this is all 
been about money so far. 

2705
02:25:29,640 --> 02:25:30,960
Somebody said this is a business
model. 

2706
02:25:30,960 --> 02:25:33,520
It is a business model. 
And what I. 

2707
02:25:33,520 --> 02:25:38,480
Fear is that they do, that they 
do take over. 

2708
02:25:38,520 --> 02:25:41,520
I mean, yeah, you can reject the
offer until they come in with 

2709
02:25:42,280 --> 02:25:45,480
some of them billions, and then 
you can't reject the offer 

2710
02:25:45,480 --> 02:25:47,000
anymore. 
They're being sold by Berkshire.

2711
02:25:48,040 --> 02:25:49,280
Yeah. 
It's not Crossfit's decision. 

2712
02:25:49,280 --> 02:25:53,960
It's it's Berkshire. 
No, like I'm still going to 

2713
02:25:53,960 --> 02:25:55,400
cover it, but I'm not. 
I don't. 

2714
02:25:56,800 --> 02:25:59,040
You, you heard? 
Parents say it. 

2715
02:25:59,440 --> 02:26:03,520
It seemed like it was more of a 
just somewhat somewhat of an 

2716
02:26:03,520 --> 02:26:06,680
exhibition. 
Dallon's talking about it as a a

2717
02:26:06,880 --> 02:26:11,760
a money league. 
It's not the playoffs like the 

2718
02:26:11,760 --> 02:26:13,960
CrossFit game. 
Season like. 

2719
02:26:15,720 --> 02:26:17,360
We want to crown the fittest on 
earth. 

2720
02:26:17,360 --> 02:26:20,480
We want to see who can take the 
methodology the furthest to 

2721
02:26:20,480 --> 02:26:25,280
become the fittest on Earth. 
That's what excites me, right? 

2722
02:26:25,720 --> 02:26:28,320
Watching people do thrusters 
for. 

2723
02:26:28,320 --> 02:26:32,120
Points is not. 
As exciting, it's not going to 

2724
02:26:32,120 --> 02:26:37,400
be right like over like multiple
competitions and all this. 

2725
02:26:37,400 --> 02:26:40,320
Stuff and you're not going. 
To be trying as hard if there is

2726
02:26:40,320 --> 02:26:43,480
nothing else out there and that 
was what it was, OK, fine. 

2727
02:26:44,360 --> 02:26:49,760
But you can't come in and try to
bully and push off. 

2728
02:26:49,760 --> 02:26:51,960
I don't want to say bully, but 
like come in and. 

2729
02:26:51,960 --> 02:26:54,920
And. 
Use different language to say 

2730
02:26:54,920 --> 02:27:02,280
what you're trying to do and 
it's not actually upfront, you 

2731
02:27:02,280 --> 02:27:04,000
know we. 
Started covering and we started 

2732
02:27:04,000 --> 02:27:05,520
doing CrossFit. 
We didn't come in and do the 

2733
02:27:05,520 --> 02:27:10,320
world fitness project. 
And time and time again, new 

2734
02:27:10,320 --> 02:27:14,080
leagues have been formed. 
Live golf, IndyCar racing, a lot

2735
02:27:14,080 --> 02:27:17,640
of these things have come in 
with a competing league and it's

2736
02:27:17,640 --> 02:27:20,040
blown up. 
And both have suffered from it. 

2737
02:27:21,880 --> 02:27:26,560
And CrossFit is not big. 
Enough if you care about this 

2738
02:27:26,560 --> 02:27:27,440
if. 
You care about watching the 

2739
02:27:27,440 --> 02:27:30,400
sport. 
It's not big enough to handle 

2740
02:27:32,200 --> 02:27:36,560
that blow up. 
It's not and like. 

2741
02:27:36,960 --> 02:27:39,760
But again, what's? 
What is the solution then? 

2742
02:27:42,120 --> 02:27:45,280
Hate, hate on it. 
That's not a solution, says. 

2743
02:27:45,720 --> 02:27:47,960
I know he's convinced that. 
He's convinced that. 

2744
02:27:47,960 --> 02:27:49,000
CrossFit will always. 
Be. 

2745
02:27:49,000 --> 02:27:51,120
Around and I, I. 
Think differently. 

2746
02:27:51,680 --> 02:27:53,840
I don't, I don't. 
I don't disagree with you. 

2747
02:27:53,840 --> 02:27:56,120
The methodology will live on 
Forever 100. 

2748
02:27:56,120 --> 02:27:57,640
Percent. 
And he's saying, like the 

2749
02:27:57,680 --> 02:28:01,160
affiliates won't, the wind in 
our sails changes greatly. 

2750
02:28:02,440 --> 02:28:05,880
With. 
The more you turn into F45 with 

2751
02:28:05,880 --> 02:28:08,760
barbells. 
I agree and it's like. 

2752
02:28:09,120 --> 02:28:11,920
That that becomes died down 
eventually. 

2753
02:28:12,360 --> 02:28:13,680
And that's what I'm concerned 
of. 

2754
02:28:13,760 --> 02:28:18,880
Go find a podcast about F45. 
Go find a podcast. 

2755
02:28:18,880 --> 02:28:22,440
About Orangetheory, right? 
It's just a gym. 

2756
02:28:23,120 --> 02:28:24,840
That's all it is. 
There's a difference. 

2757
02:28:24,840 --> 02:28:26,040
There's a reason who want to 
feel. 

2758
02:28:26,040 --> 02:28:28,880
Good about themselves that 
aren't actually doing anything 

2759
02:28:29,240 --> 02:28:30,360
right. 
Like there is a. 

2760
02:28:30,360 --> 02:28:33,920
Difference, and I'm not saying 
the sport is the the. 

2761
02:28:34,000 --> 02:28:37,680
The competition side, the game 
side is what has to be there, 

2762
02:28:37,680 --> 02:28:43,280
but it it does draw an entire 
world together for an open, a 

2763
02:28:43,280 --> 02:28:45,760
community, things that are 
bigger than that. 

2764
02:28:46,400 --> 02:28:49,240
And yeah, great. 
There's a there's CrossFit as a 

2765
02:28:49,240 --> 02:28:52,360
gym down the road and you can go
across the country and find a 

2766
02:28:52,360 --> 02:28:55,320
CrossFit gym. 
It is different if you don't 

2767
02:28:55,320 --> 02:29:01,720
have that and if that's what 
gets torn down. 

2768
02:29:01,720 --> 02:29:04,040
So we could have the top 20 
athletes make a. 

2769
02:29:04,040 --> 02:29:07,280
Career out of. 
It I don't think it's not worth 

2770
02:29:07,320 --> 02:29:09,680
it. 
It's not worth it, but OK. 

2771
02:29:09,720 --> 02:29:13,280
The the only. 
Thing that can stop it then is 

2772
02:29:13,280 --> 02:29:17,480
the athletes not doing it right.
Like what else? 

2773
02:29:17,640 --> 02:29:19,480
And they're, and they're going 
to be forced to make that 

2774
02:29:19,480 --> 02:29:21,320
decision. 
Next year and we'll see. 

2775
02:29:22,160 --> 02:29:25,520
What happens and if it's some 
athletes really think this is 

2776
02:29:25,520 --> 02:29:29,120
the future and then some 
athletes have that feeling of 

2777
02:29:29,120 --> 02:29:31,920
like I can't do both I'd. 
Still rather. 

2778
02:29:31,920 --> 02:29:35,760
Be crowned fittest on earth, 
like Dallon said. 

2779
02:29:36,640 --> 02:29:39,440
And let's say Dallon goes to 
CrossFit Games route and let's 

2780
02:29:39,440 --> 02:29:45,560
say Medeiros goes world fitness 
project, right? 

2781
02:29:45,560 --> 02:29:49,120
Let's say Hatfield goes. 
World Fitness and Colton Goes 

2782
02:29:49,120 --> 02:29:52,360
Games. 
That would suck to not watch 

2783
02:29:52,360 --> 02:29:57,760
them compete in the same arena. 
So what? 

2784
02:29:57,760 --> 02:29:59,040
What do we do? 
We. 

2785
02:29:59,240 --> 02:30:01,880
We. 
I think and what I will continue

2786
02:30:01,880 --> 02:30:04,720
to do. 
Is I'll cover it, but don't look

2787
02:30:04,840 --> 02:30:07,360
to me to be like the most 
excited person. 

2788
02:30:07,360 --> 02:30:12,240
Don't expect to have all these 
prediction shows or a a World 

2789
02:30:12,240 --> 02:30:14,600
Fitness Project mountain. 
Like we would still. 

2790
02:30:14,600 --> 02:30:16,600
Watch it. 
We'll still talk about it like 

2791
02:30:16,600 --> 02:30:19,560
we are now. 
We're not going to ignore it and

2792
02:30:19,560 --> 02:30:22,680
I don't think again this past 
weekend was not ignoring it like

2793
02:30:22,920 --> 02:30:24,640
there are life events that 
happen. 

2794
02:30:24,720 --> 02:30:28,520
Tyler was there, I was there, 
but like and we're going to use 

2795
02:30:29,040 --> 02:30:31,640
with a baby on the way it was. 
Not an easy fucking. 

2796
02:30:31,640 --> 02:30:33,400
Thing to do? 
We're going to talk about world 

2797
02:30:33,400 --> 02:30:34,520
fitness. 
Project, we're going to think 

2798
02:30:34,520 --> 02:30:37,040
about it in terms of. 
How it impacts the CrossFit. 

2799
02:30:37,040 --> 02:30:41,800
Games, but it's all all it's 
going to be is a toggle on down 

2800
02:30:41,800 --> 02:30:43,720
like it's one one of the. 
Topics but don't. 

2801
02:30:43,720 --> 02:30:46,280
Yeah, but don't. 
Expect us to be like, screw the 

2802
02:30:46,280 --> 02:30:47,600
CrossFit Games, we're going to 
cover this. 

2803
02:30:47,600 --> 02:30:49,400
This is the most. 
Important thing because I think 

2804
02:30:49,400 --> 02:30:53,320
it is dangerous to CrossFit and 
the CrossFit Games. 

2805
02:30:53,440 --> 02:30:58,040
The athletes and the community. 
I wish, I wish the athletes 

2806
02:30:58,040 --> 02:31:00,440
would all watch. 
This. 

2807
02:31:01,520 --> 02:31:03,800
Episode then not even the whole 
episode but like just. 

2808
02:31:03,800 --> 02:31:05,240
This part. 
So. 

2809
02:31:05,240 --> 02:31:08,360
They can. 
'Cause I, I had five athletes 

2810
02:31:08,440 --> 02:31:12,920
text me and say, why can't you 
guys get on board with the World

2811
02:31:12,920 --> 02:31:14,800
Fitness Project? 
And I know Tyler had countless 

2812
02:31:14,800 --> 02:31:20,600
people ask him the same thing. 
And I want it to be made so 

2813
02:31:20,600 --> 02:31:25,600
clear that this is, these are 
the lines in the sand. 

2814
02:31:26,320 --> 02:31:30,000
And we are team CrossFit, 
CrossFit survival and they are 

2815
02:31:30,000 --> 02:31:32,480
not. 
And that is why we do what we 

2816
02:31:32,480 --> 02:31:36,360
do. 
It is not because we're hating. 

2817
02:31:36,920 --> 02:31:41,800
They have made this line and 
we're we're choosing to be on 

2818
02:31:41,800 --> 02:31:43,920
this side of it. 
I've said it if they put it. 

2819
02:31:43,920 --> 02:31:47,280
In the offseason. 
Not in the middle of the game. 

2820
02:31:47,280 --> 02:31:49,160
Season, I think it could be 
great. 

2821
02:31:49,360 --> 02:31:51,520
We are a. 100%. 
On board dude. 

2822
02:31:51,520 --> 02:31:53,920
Late August to. 
Late August to. 

2823
02:31:53,920 --> 02:31:58,360
Mid January like that's your. 
That's your season, everything 

2824
02:31:58,360 --> 02:31:59,960
could coexist and everything 
would be great. 

2825
02:31:59,960 --> 02:32:05,280
And I want, I want people to 
understand I am not like pro 

2826
02:32:05,280 --> 02:32:10,200
WFPI, just want it to work for 
everybody so badly 'cause I know

2827
02:32:10,200 --> 02:32:12,760
the athletes want it to work and
I care about the athletes, 

2828
02:32:12,760 --> 02:32:14,680
believe it or not. 
I know I speak pretty bad about 

2829
02:32:14,680 --> 02:32:17,560
them a lot, but I want it to 
succeed. 

2830
02:32:17,560 --> 02:32:20,320
I want the sport to grow and I 
think it could help everything 

2831
02:32:20,320 --> 02:32:26,200
grow, but it cannot compete with
the CrossFit Games and that's on

2832
02:32:26,200 --> 02:32:29,160
them. 
That's on them. 

2833
02:32:31,080 --> 02:32:32,960
So I I'm. 
Team hater if we want to go. 

2834
02:32:32,960 --> 02:32:35,680
That route is what I'm. 
Saying we'll go bored. 

2835
02:32:38,120 --> 02:32:39,760
It's Ben's been the captain for 
a while. 

2836
02:32:40,160 --> 02:32:41,760
Do you you? 
Understand where I'm at though, 

2837
02:32:41,760 --> 02:32:44,160
like I. 
Don't understand you were you 

2838
02:32:44,160 --> 02:32:47,360
were asking about solutions? 
What do we? 

2839
02:32:47,360 --> 02:32:51,640
Do just CrossFit take them down?
I need a box will more. 

2840
02:32:51,640 --> 02:32:54,080
Add we need pay-per-view boxing 
match. 

2841
02:32:54,400 --> 02:32:56,320
I think there's going. 
To be so many put people pull 

2842
02:32:56,320 --> 02:32:58,560
this podcast and they'll be 
like, they haven't said that. 

2843
02:32:59,000 --> 02:33:02,560
They are against CrossFit and 
it's like, no, they haven't said

2844
02:33:02,560 --> 02:33:06,840
it to you. 
They have said it to some 

2845
02:33:06,840 --> 02:33:10,640
people. 
There's we'll just. 

2846
02:33:10,640 --> 02:33:12,480
Set it in that. 
We'll set it in that interview. 

2847
02:33:13,200 --> 02:33:15,320
Well, I think. 
Spin you're reading. 

2848
02:33:15,320 --> 02:33:17,360
Into it. 
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. 

2849
02:33:17,400 --> 02:33:19,440
The messaging. 
Has changed no and I I need. 

2850
02:33:19,440 --> 02:33:21,360
Clear questions asked him and so
you. 

2851
02:33:21,360 --> 02:33:26,560
Can only answer yes or no. 
And if he can't do it, you've 

2852
02:33:26,560 --> 02:33:28,520
said yes or no. 
Yeah. 

2853
02:33:29,840 --> 02:33:35,520
Yes, and I think the. 
The the WWE and the WCW did come

2854
02:33:35,520 --> 02:33:38,360
together. 
We aren't those things. 

2855
02:33:38,360 --> 02:33:40,480
They were much larger at the 
time. 

2856
02:33:40,720 --> 02:33:44,320
We can't, we can't withstand 
that sort of blast right now. 

2857
02:33:44,520 --> 02:33:46,880
And I, I get it, dude. 
Like I'm saying like, oh, 

2858
02:33:46,880 --> 02:33:49,120
CrossFit, like they should be 
able to withstand. 

2859
02:33:49,120 --> 02:33:50,440
They should be able to stand on 
their own. 

2860
02:33:50,440 --> 02:33:53,360
They fucking can't right now. 
And that's why it's like, OK, 

2861
02:33:53,360 --> 02:33:55,320
what do we do, John? 
You were asking? 

2862
02:33:56,240 --> 02:33:58,160
CrossFit can't do anything right
now. 

2863
02:33:58,200 --> 02:33:59,720
They can't. 
They don't have the money. 

2864
02:33:59,840 --> 02:34:02,080
Berkshire doesn't want to fight.
They have. 

2865
02:34:02,080 --> 02:34:03,520
They try to. 
They have to try to sell. 

2866
02:34:03,880 --> 02:34:07,320
WFP might be a potential buyer. 
So they can't go against the WFP

2867
02:34:07,320 --> 02:34:09,640
right now. 
They can't do anything about 

2868
02:34:09,640 --> 02:34:12,000
this. 
There is one way through this, 

2869
02:34:13,640 --> 02:34:17,640
and it's Rich Froning. 
OK, I like it. 

2870
02:34:17,920 --> 02:34:19,960
Go ahead. 
I'll leave Frazier. 9:00 and 

2871
02:34:19,960 --> 02:34:22,720
9:00 Thank you for covering all 
the CrossFit cop topics. 

2872
02:34:22,720 --> 02:34:28,000
So well. 
Jump ship, you're right. 

2873
02:34:28,400 --> 02:34:32,080
Rich Froning for CEO. 
I'm I'm all for it. 

2874
02:34:32,080 --> 02:34:35,880
You like it What you like that 
If it? 

2875
02:34:35,880 --> 02:34:37,360
Means that we. 
Succeed. 

2876
02:34:37,360 --> 02:34:38,520
Yes, I'm all. 
For it I. 

2877
02:34:38,520 --> 02:34:40,480
I don't care how. 
We get there. 

2878
02:34:40,480 --> 02:34:45,040
I just want CrossFit to survive,
I want the Open to stay, I want 

2879
02:34:45,040 --> 02:34:49,160
the community to be excited 
about the Open again, and I want

2880
02:34:49,160 --> 02:34:51,680
the Games to always be the Super
Bowl of fitness. 

2881
02:34:51,920 --> 02:34:56,360
That is all that is. 
My whole agenda is that I don't 

2882
02:34:56,360 --> 02:35:01,120
go around and say that I care 
about European athletes and then

2883
02:35:01,120 --> 02:35:04,320
not cover the French throwdown. 
That's not what I do spend 

2884
02:35:04,760 --> 02:35:06,480
because somebody else has paid 
me. 

2885
02:35:06,920 --> 02:35:10,120
I say exactly what I want to say
and I follow through on 

2886
02:35:10,120 --> 02:35:11,360
everything. 
That's one thing. 

2887
02:35:11,840 --> 02:35:13,520
I think, Tyler, you might have 
said this. 

2888
02:35:13,880 --> 02:35:16,200
Whatever. 
Whatever I say to your face, 

2889
02:35:16,840 --> 02:35:19,760
whatever I say to your face, 
that's what I'm saying behind 

2890
02:35:19,760 --> 02:35:20,840
your back. 
It's the. 

2891
02:35:20,840 --> 02:35:24,400
Exact same. 
Thing I have I have no agenda at

2892
02:35:24,400 --> 02:35:26,640
all. 
I I want people to work 

2893
02:35:26,640 --> 02:35:31,800
together, but I think I'm nicer 
actually in person than most 

2894
02:35:31,800 --> 02:35:35,160
people. 
But I and there's no hidden 

2895
02:35:35,160 --> 02:35:36,800
agenda if we're going to, if 
we're going. 

2896
02:35:36,800 --> 02:35:38,440
To go to war. 
Then we're going to go to war, 

2897
02:35:38,520 --> 02:35:41,720
and I'm all for Rich if Rich 
means that we win the war. 

2898
02:35:43,200 --> 02:35:45,080
Yeah. 
All right, I'm going to leave 

2899
02:35:45,080 --> 02:35:47,680
you with this. 
Will Morad come join our short 

2900
02:35:47,680 --> 02:35:49,360
next? 
Show next week Jon wants. 

2901
02:35:49,360 --> 02:35:53,040
To ask you if you add the balls 
will morad and if you don't then

2902
02:35:53,040 --> 02:35:56,160
that shows us what type of man. 
You are OK. 

2903
02:35:57,840 --> 02:36:01,400
We'll see you next week. 
Will I apologize to? 

2904
02:36:01,440 --> 02:36:02,880
Absolutely nobody.
