Transcript
- 0:28what is going on everybody
- 0:30welcome to Lansing Michigan
- 0:32where we are live in Jamie
- 0:35Latimer's dining room yes
- 0:37we are it is quarterfinals
- 0:39time so I made the trek up
- 0:42here to Michigan uh to kind
- 0:44of get film some of the
- 0:45action to hang out with my
- 0:46friends and to see what all
- 0:50is happening here in
- 0:51Michigan so um yeah yeah
- 0:57What's going on?
- 0:58So I was driving today and
- 1:00you did some stuff.
- 1:01I did do some stuff more than expected.
- 1:06I got here and you, I said, well,
- 1:08what'd you get done today?
- 1:09And you're like,
- 1:11you kind of meekishly said, like,
- 1:14I don't know if you felt
- 1:14like you were disappointing me,
- 1:16but you're like, I did two of them.
- 1:18Yeah.
- 1:20I mean,
- 1:20I feel like you make the track to
- 1:22watch and I,
- 1:24Wanted you to be able to
- 1:26watch most of the workouts.
- 1:27I knew you were going to miss one.
- 1:29Yeah.
- 1:31Yeah.
- 1:31And who knows,
- 1:32maybe you'll redo something
- 1:33and we'll catch that or whatever.
- 1:35But Corey says he's doing two tomorrow.
- 1:41Yeah.
- 1:41I think what's interesting
- 1:42about this and everything
- 1:44I've watched today and
- 1:46listening to you and Haley today,
- 1:47tonight at the gym,
- 1:49like it's crucial that you
- 1:51do these in the right order.
- 1:53for you for sure.
- 1:54Yeah.
- 1:56Uh,
- 1:56because some of these are going to
- 1:58wreck you.
- 1:59And once that happens,
- 2:00it's going to impair
- 2:02whatever you redo after that.
- 2:06And they were smart to put the,
- 2:09I think the wall ball
- 2:10burpee back jumper one is
- 2:11going to be the one that
- 2:12affects a lot of people and
- 2:16it's due by Saturday.
- 2:17So
- 2:19if you're trying to save that,
- 2:20then you have to do two earlier.
- 2:23Yeah.
- 2:25Yeah.
- 2:26So I completely understand
- 2:27why you would do two
- 2:28already just to get
- 2:30something in the bank and on the board.
- 2:33And then,
- 2:33because that one is going to do
- 2:35some damage.
- 2:37So I get, I checked into the hotel and,
- 2:40Uh, the wife was like, Hey,
- 2:42I'm just going to crash onto bed.
- 2:43Uh, and you text me and say, Hey,
- 2:46Haley's going to do one tonight.
- 2:47You want to come over?
- 2:48So I said, okay, I go over and do that.
- 2:50And hopefully we're not like
- 2:52giving away any secrets or anything,
- 2:54but she was going to do one
- 2:56of the workouts tonight.
- 2:57She got into it a little bit,
- 2:59realized completely wrong plan,
- 3:03redlined it way too early
- 3:04and just threw on the break and said,
- 3:08let's save this for another day.
- 3:09Right.
- 3:11probably mostly my fault
- 3:13because we're at the mercy
- 3:15of other people for our,
- 3:19our gym is 14 feet, six inches.
- 3:23So when we have rope climb workouts,
- 3:24we have to travel.
- 3:25And then I have to
- 3:26coordinate with where we're going to go,
- 3:28who, when they're open,
- 3:29when they have classes,
- 3:30when we can not bother them.
- 3:32Um,
- 3:34and I kind of assumed we were going to
- 3:35have to do a Saturday Sunday for that.
- 3:36Um,
- 3:37I don't want to.
- 3:38And I was able to get a hold
- 3:41of grand trunk at where we
- 3:43did our team stuff and they
- 3:46will accommodate us tomorrow.
- 3:47So when Haley got to the gym, I was like,
- 3:51yeah,
- 3:51we're going to go do number three
- 3:53tomorrow.
- 3:54So I feel like you kind of
- 3:55need to get number one in.
- 3:57And she wanted to do clean
- 3:59and jerks first.
- 4:00It's going to be the easiest one for her.
- 4:01Knock it out.
- 4:03So she had a plan of coming
- 4:04in to hit the clean of
- 4:05jerks and I kind of threw
- 4:06her for a loop and she just
- 4:07kind of warmed up and
- 4:09jumped into those intervals
- 4:11and those intervals are spicy.
- 4:14Yeah.
- 4:15Yeah.
- 4:16And it's funny because as soon as she like,
- 4:18like she turned around to
- 4:19you and was like, yeah,
- 4:20I don't think this is going
- 4:21to work today.
- 4:23I felt so bad.
- 4:24I was like, Oh no.
- 4:25Oh no.
- 4:26And then as we were leaving
- 4:27in the parking lot,
- 4:27and this is after much
- 4:28deliberation and
- 4:30conversation with you as a coach,
- 4:32she looked at you and went,
- 4:33my max heart rate went to 202.
- 4:37So she definitely went to a
- 4:38place that was not going to
- 4:40be healthy for the rest of that workout.
- 4:42No.
- 4:43She was going to have to back way off.
- 4:44We would have been even
- 4:46further off of the plan.
- 4:48So it makes sense.
- 4:49I mean, she knows how it feels.
- 4:50Now we can get a new number
- 4:54rep set scheme to go.
- 4:56So I think it's fine.
- 4:59So what was good for me is
- 5:00it gave me some practice
- 5:01filming to get a little more creativity.
- 5:06I was figuring out how to like,
- 5:08with my new camera, I got the 4K,
- 5:10I got the whole nine, right?
- 5:12But I could zoom in on like
- 5:13the monitor on the rower.
- 5:15uh so I could catch like
- 5:16paces stuff like that um
- 5:18while it's going on and
- 5:20we're hoping to do some
- 5:21creative side by sides um
- 5:24after this weekend so maybe
- 5:25after saturday submission
- 5:27time uh putting together
- 5:28some side by sides uh and
- 5:30getting those up so people
- 5:31can see what the
- 5:33competition was like
- 5:34between the athletes um
- 5:38So super stoked for that.
- 5:40Um,
- 5:40and that got me kind of in the groove
- 5:42after she stepped back,
- 5:43you and her got out a
- 5:44little whiteboard and you,
- 5:46you re strategized this workout for her.
- 5:50And I, I asked her, I said, you know,
- 5:54now that you know what it feels like,
- 5:56do you think you'll,
- 5:57you'll be better off going
- 5:58forward or does it scare you more?
- 6:01And her answer was, no,
- 6:02it makes me feel better
- 6:03because I'm a feel girl and
- 6:05I want to know what it feels like.
- 6:07And I want to be ready for
- 6:09it when it comes.
- 6:11And she actually looked
- 6:12excited about doing it again.
- 6:14When I looked at her face,
- 6:15when she stopped, I was like,
- 6:17oh my gosh,
- 6:17I don't know if she's even
- 6:18going to want to do this again.
- 6:20But after she talked to you
- 6:21and you re-strategized,
- 6:24her demeanor changed completely.
- 6:26Like, yeah, let's get after this.
- 6:28Now it was just trying to
- 6:29find the right time.
- 6:32So it doesn't affect
- 6:33anything else on the board.
- 6:34Right.
- 6:35Yeah.
- 6:35I think we just maybe went a
- 6:41little aggressive with our
- 6:42numbers because
- 6:44Um,
- 6:45but she's got tons of leeway in there
- 6:47to play with.
- 6:47So I think we'll be fine.
- 6:49And I don't want to give anything away,
- 6:51but you yourself were just
- 6:54a tiny bit aggressive and
- 6:58you felt it right.
- 7:01Right.
- 7:01We're not, again,
- 7:03we're not going to reveal
- 7:03anything until submission
- 7:05time at this point,
- 7:06but that's one of the
- 7:09workouts you did and you did feel it.
- 7:11Yeah, I did.
- 7:13Um, it's something now.
- 7:17No.
- 7:17So I was going to go into it
- 7:18just doing around to figure
- 7:22out pacing and rep scheme.
- 7:24And I was like, nah, just keep going.
- 7:26And then I was two rounds in
- 7:28and I was like, I should stop.
- 7:29But I was like, nah,
- 7:30you've done two rounds.
- 7:32Like you've already
- 7:32accumulated some fatigue in your legs.
- 7:34So just finish and gut it
- 7:36out and it's fine.
- 7:37It'll be fine.
- 7:37But
- 7:39Yeah.
- 7:41She says it'll be fine.
- 7:42People in her corner are
- 7:44happy with the results.
- 7:47Yeah.
- 7:49Yeah.
- 7:50I never know.
- 7:51She's never happy with the results.
- 7:52So I have to go with other
- 7:54people to get a true
- 7:56barometer as to where she sits.
- 7:58Yeah.
- 7:59But yeah,
- 8:00people in her corner are happy
- 8:01with the results there.
- 8:03But Jamie is never satisfied.
- 8:05That's true.
- 8:06She can always get two more reps.
- 8:09I hate missing my goal.
- 8:11You know,
- 8:11like if I have something on the board,
- 8:13I usually underestimate and
- 8:15I usually can get like the
- 8:18cleaner tricks went fine for me.
- 8:19I got more than my goal.
- 8:21Am I still a little
- 8:23disappointed in myself?
- 8:23Yes.
- 8:24Now that I kind of know, but like this one,
- 8:27I didn't even get what I wanted.
- 8:29And so it's just like, Oh,
- 8:32well it is what it is at this point.
- 8:33Yeah.
- 8:35So we kind of jumped into this,
- 8:36like into the deep end, but
- 8:39We haven't been on the air
- 8:40since the workouts were announced.
- 8:44When I looked at these workouts,
- 8:45I don't know if I had my
- 8:48bar set low going in after
- 8:50seeing the team workouts or what,
- 8:53but I love these workouts.
- 8:57I actually, not having to do them,
- 9:00I'm just looking at them as
- 9:03a test to see if people are
- 9:05going to move on that should move on.
- 9:08And I love the design of this,
- 9:10this test from start to finish.
- 9:14Yeah.
- 9:14They,
- 9:17they really test your fitness and
- 9:20your capacity.
- 9:21Uh, I think they're great tests.
- 9:24None of them are like a pure sprint.
- 9:28No.
- 9:30So you're,
- 9:30you're going to have to hold on
- 9:32at every one of these
- 9:33workouts at something.
- 9:35Right.
- 9:36Um,
- 9:38even watching other people
- 9:40do the clean and jerk workout, which it's,
- 9:45you know,
- 9:45for the people that did it down
- 9:47at Crash on the Savant podcast,
- 9:50it was double grace, right?
- 9:52So it's not like a sprint,
- 9:54like single grace,
- 9:55like it's double and it's heavier.
- 9:59So yeah, this is all like,
- 10:02can you hang on?
- 10:04Yep, exactly.
- 10:04And even like that heavier barbell,
- 10:08moderate to heavy barbell,
- 10:10you have to have fitness to
- 10:11stay in the game.
- 10:13Oh, yeah.
- 10:15Yeah,
- 10:15the second you redline in any of these,
- 10:18you're in trouble.
- 10:20So last year when we were at semis,
- 10:23we kind of called that
- 10:24programming like full of minefields.
- 10:28Yeah.
- 10:28Yeah.
- 10:29right?
- 10:30And are full of landmines.
- 10:33It was a minefield of a workout.
- 10:34And so there were points where like,
- 10:36if you went to failure, you're stuck.
- 10:39Yeah.
- 10:40And you're not moving on.
- 10:44Do you feel that in this set?
- 10:46Or do you think it's
- 10:47something that people are
- 10:48going to be fatigued at the end,
- 10:50but they're going to be
- 10:50able to push through?
- 10:52maybe not fast,
- 10:54but not completely stop
- 10:55like a strict deficit
- 10:57handstand pushup or a seated rope climb.
- 11:03I mean, there will be some people,
- 11:07not anybody in the 40 that are moving on,
- 11:10but there will,
- 11:11it definitely will be that
- 11:12way for the ring muscle ups
- 11:13of workout three, but it won't be the,
- 11:17your top 40.
- 11:19Right, right, right.
- 11:22Yeah, because even Lindsay at Crash,
- 11:26she made it through.
- 11:27She finished.
- 11:27She made it through, yeah.
- 11:28Yeah.
- 11:29She was doing singles at the end.
- 11:30Yeah.
- 11:32But she was able to make it through.
- 11:35And really, like,
- 11:35the handstand push-up and
- 11:36that just seems so
- 11:37insignificant after watching.
- 11:38It kind of is.
- 11:40You know,
- 11:40so... And that's kind of a tiny
- 11:43bit of shame.
- 11:45Yeah.
- 11:46I wish it meant a little
- 11:48more in that workout.
- 11:50But...
- 11:52But yeah, it's, it's gotten,
- 11:54they can't test everything.
- 11:56Yeah.
- 11:58Yeah.
- 11:59There are people who aren't
- 12:01awesome at strict or wall
- 12:03facing and there's only 10 wall facing.
- 12:07So like,
- 12:07you're going to sneak through that.
- 12:08Yeah.
- 12:12how much will you pay for
- 12:15inefficient handstand
- 12:18pushups when you get to the
- 12:20muscle ups and the,
- 12:22the dip coming up out of the dip?
- 12:24Yeah.
- 12:27I,
- 12:28I think that's part of what's catching
- 12:30people that and the rope climb pole.
- 12:32Like it's,
- 12:34I guess you kind of need to know yourself.
- 12:36Are you a,
- 12:36are you someone who struggles
- 12:37out of the dip of the ring
- 12:38muscle up or are you
- 12:39struggling to pull over and turn over?
- 12:42Yeah.
- 12:45So let's go through these real quick.
- 12:48Workout one is the intervals
- 12:53and it starts with one minute of snatches,
- 12:56one minute of rowing and
- 12:59one minute of box step ups weighted and
- 13:03Um, initial thoughts on that.
- 13:08Um, initially I was like, I like it.
- 13:10I like dumbbell back step ups.
- 13:15Admittedly,
- 13:16I prefer like single dumbbell
- 13:21or like front rack.
- 13:23Um, and I, I wouldn't, having done it now,
- 13:26I wouldn't even say it was
- 13:27necessarily grippy, um,
- 13:30So it wasn't that I don't even know.
- 13:31I just, my legs were so shot.
- 13:35Um, it,
- 13:37but it's a good workout and it's
- 13:39one of those ones.
- 13:39It's kind of like a mind game.
- 13:41Like, are you pushing the row?
- 13:43Are you pushing the where,
- 13:45which one are you pushing?
- 13:49So.
- 13:51We'll get into that later.
- 13:53I'm going to hold off on that question.
- 13:55Workout two is three rounds for time.
- 13:58This is the crushing one.
- 14:0050 wall ball shots and then 50,
- 14:03we're going to just call
- 14:06them burpees over the box.
- 14:08Burpee back jump over, yep.
- 14:09Yeah.
- 14:10Um,
- 14:11because they're not lateral because you
- 14:13can do them any way you want.
- 14:14Um, but they are, uh, 30 burpees,
- 14:1750 burpees, um, over box jump overs.
- 14:23Yep.
- 14:24Thoughts.
- 14:26Uh, it's so many burpee backs, jumps,
- 14:32jump overs.
- 14:33Um,
- 14:35it's just going to be in it's 20 minutes.
- 14:39like a lot of people are,
- 14:41most people are going to get capped.
- 14:43Uh,
- 14:44so you're working for 20 minutes and I
- 14:48programmed this for the gym
- 14:49today and spoiler alert,
- 14:51like nobody showed up.
- 14:54Yeah.
- 14:55And then when Haley was done,
- 14:57another class started,
- 14:58they did not look like they
- 14:59were having fun.
- 15:02Yeah.
- 15:03And they're getting like half the work.
- 15:06Um, so yeah.
- 15:09Yes,
- 15:09I did go to Michigan wearing a bear shirt,
- 15:11and I am savage.
- 15:13This is our year.
- 15:15Caleb Williams is going to
- 15:18crush the Lions all next season.
- 15:20All right.
- 15:24Corey Leonard says you kind
- 15:25of have to push the row, in my opinion.
- 15:27Can make a lot more reps on there.
- 15:30I don't necessarily agree with you, Corey.
- 15:33Yeah, that was my initial thought, too,
- 15:35Corey.
- 15:36Yeah, watching it tonight,
- 15:39I think it depends on the
- 15:40athlete you are.
- 15:41Sure.
- 15:43There's going to be big,
- 15:46strong men who just crush the row.
- 15:48And that makes sense.
- 15:52But yeah, it depends on the athlete.
- 15:57Can I just say,
- 15:58I walked into the gym tonight.
- 16:00I didn't realize how tall Haley was.
- 16:04Oh, she's not that tall.
- 16:06I think like, but compared to you,
- 16:08I'm just small.
- 16:09People don't think like, like it,
- 16:11it was like, it took my breath away.
- 16:13Like that.
- 16:14She does kind of tower over
- 16:15you and she's a completely
- 16:17different athlete than you
- 16:18completely different.
- 16:20Um,
- 16:20so something that I would picture you
- 16:22doing in the interval workout,
- 16:24I would give her different
- 16:26advice all completely.
- 16:29And that's why I say that Corey.
- 16:31Just knowing Jamie,
- 16:35being co-host for the last year,
- 16:37following her career,
- 16:38and then watching Haley tonight,
- 16:41two completely different
- 16:42strategies on that workout.
- 16:45Yeah.
- 16:46So then we go to three,
- 16:48which we've talked about a lot,
- 16:50and that is the handstand
- 16:52push-ups with the
- 16:52toes-to-bar and the rope
- 16:55climbs and the muscle-ups.
- 16:58Correct.
- 16:59Uh,
- 16:59so have we talked about that enough
- 17:02with everything that's happened?
- 17:06Yeah, I was, I mean, and it was,
- 17:08I think a lot of people
- 17:09probably already watched
- 17:11Taylor versus the world and
- 17:12fee and Lindsay.
- 17:15Um, yeah, that's, that's a,
- 17:18it's a good workout.
- 17:20I personally think it's a
- 17:20muscle up workout.
- 17:23Some people could think it's
- 17:24a rope climb workout.
- 17:27I think it's both.
- 17:28Yeah.
- 17:28Well, yeah,
- 17:29I just think it's a muscle up workout.
- 17:31I think,
- 17:32I think toes to bar are irrelevant.
- 17:35And I think the handstand pushups,
- 17:38other than what we talked about,
- 17:39maybe fatiguing the press
- 17:41in the muscle up,
- 17:42then it comes down to how
- 17:43fast you get rope climbs.
- 17:45And then once you get through that, how,
- 17:49how much do you have to
- 17:49break up the muscle ups?
- 17:51Right.
- 17:54Corey says my box step ups
- 17:56are going to be slow.
- 17:57I have child sized legs.
- 17:59Corey, you get to step to a 20 inch box.
- 18:02Yeah.
- 18:04Stop complaining.
- 18:08So then we finish up with workout four.
- 18:11That is the double grace for
- 18:13the people that did it at crash.
- 18:16But it is 10 clean jerks at one weight,
- 18:19one minute rest,
- 18:2010 more clean jerks at the next weight,
- 18:23minute rest,
- 18:2310 clean jerks at the next weight,
- 18:26one minute rest,
- 18:27max clean jerks in the remaining time.
- 18:32Yeah, I...
- 18:35Following TTT last year,
- 18:37we did the simulation
- 18:38workouts and you actually
- 18:40played these and covered
- 18:42them the week before we
- 18:43started quarterfinals.
- 18:45And TTT row almost an identical WOD.
- 18:51It was a nine minute cap.
- 18:53It went 95, 125, 145, 165,
- 18:53as opposed to 85, 125, 155, 165.
- 19:05So in one extra minute.
- 19:09Um,
- 19:10so I essentially have done this workout
- 19:12and had pacing and everything,
- 19:15which was nice.
- 19:19So you did that today too.
- 19:23Um,
- 19:23and pretty much universally people are
- 19:25saying that's the one that
- 19:26doesn't really take much out of you.
- 19:29Um, and it's the one,
- 19:29if you're going to double up with one,
- 19:31that's the one you're going to do it.
- 19:33Um,
- 19:36I know you're not happy with
- 19:37it because you're never
- 19:38happy with any workout,
- 19:40but did you come close to
- 19:43what you expected?
- 19:45I did.
- 19:48What I wrote on the board, I beat.
- 19:53But you're still not happy,
- 19:56which makes no sense.
- 19:57I know.
- 19:58It's fine.
- 19:59I should just be happy with it.
- 20:02Okay.
- 20:03So those are the four workouts.
- 20:05I had a question and then I lost it.
- 20:11Oh, well.
- 20:12And it had to do with this
- 20:13fourth workout in
- 20:14conjunction with another one.
- 20:18Oh, you chose to do four and one,
- 20:25both using the legs.
- 20:27Yeah.
- 20:29in the same day do you
- 20:31regret that decision
- 20:33because like if you look at
- 20:35the people at crash they
- 20:37went a leg workout first
- 20:39and an arm workout second
- 20:41if I could have had a rope
- 20:44at my disposal I would 100
- 20:46would have done the four
- 20:47three hundred percent okay
- 20:54so with CrossFit making
- 20:55those the last two that the deadlines,
- 20:58the latest,
- 20:59but yet the easiest to kind of
- 21:01pair up and finish is a double.
- 21:05Do you think that was
- 21:06intentional on their part
- 21:07or a mistake on their part?
- 21:12I mean, I think it was intentional.
- 21:14I just think it,
- 21:18I don't think it's going to
- 21:19affect anyone that matters.
- 21:22So it's sort of pointless.
- 21:26Okay.
- 21:29I mean, if I had a place to do it,
- 21:34it wouldn't affect me either.
- 21:35Like, I have the time to do it.
- 21:38I definitely could have
- 21:38gotten two in a day.
- 21:40I mean, I did, but... Yeah,
- 21:44I just... Just listening to
- 21:46you and Haley talk, right?
- 21:48She's a college student,
- 21:50which gives her less
- 21:51flexibility during the day than you have.
- 21:54And here we are on Thursday night.
- 21:57She has none completed.
- 21:59And now how do you fit them
- 22:00in when you don't have a
- 22:02rope at your gym and you've
- 22:04got to go somewhere else?
- 22:06Um,
- 22:08it makes it really difficult to not
- 22:10kill yourself.
- 22:13But again, that could be part of the plan.
- 22:17Yeah.
- 22:19The top 40 that are making
- 22:20it to semi though.
- 22:23aren't going to be in this boat.
- 22:25True.
- 22:27True.
- 22:29Keep coming back to that.
- 22:34Uh, so excuse me,
- 22:35I'm doing notes on my phone this week.
- 22:38Um, we we've got a,
- 22:40we're on a portable system this week.
- 22:43So, um,
- 22:45so tomorrow the plan is for us to
- 22:49go to grand trunk so you
- 22:50can do workout three.
- 22:53They're,
- 22:54they're kindly giving you access
- 22:57to their gym on a Friday.
- 23:00How many athletes do they
- 23:01have in quarterfinals?
- 23:02I think they had like eight
- 23:06or nine make it.
- 23:10Uh,
- 23:10that's still really generous of an
- 23:12affiliate to do that, uh,
- 23:13during this time.
- 23:14Um,
- 23:19Thinking about these
- 23:20workouts and the top 40,
- 23:22who do you think will do
- 23:23these workouts well?
- 23:25Is there any standout in any
- 23:26of them that you think
- 23:27should be highlighted?
- 23:31Hmm.
- 23:35That's a good question.
- 23:40I mean.
- 23:41Let's go the easiest ones, right?
- 23:44The monostructural ones.
- 23:46So the barbell one.
- 23:48I mean, Laura's going to crush it.
- 23:50Laura.
- 23:51Kelsey Keel.
- 23:56Gabby McGowan, maybe.
- 23:59How did she do at Rogue on
- 24:01the final event?
- 24:05I think she did well.
- 24:07Because she finished top five, right?
- 24:09Yeah.
- 24:11I think Ariel could do well.
- 24:14It's moderate.
- 24:14Yeah.
- 24:18Yeah.
- 24:19And she has, I feel like she has shorter,
- 24:22smaller frame like Colton.
- 24:24Like that's what, well,
- 24:26Colton's super strong,
- 24:27but that shorter range of motion,
- 24:30just you can start to gain.
- 24:31Yeah.
- 24:35I think what's cool about this is
- 24:38people like Rebecca Fusile
- 24:40and yourself and you're not, and Fee,
- 24:43Fee got 28 reps.
- 24:44She killed it.
- 24:45She is tiny.
- 24:47She killed it.
- 24:48Like for fitness wise, like,
- 24:49and someone who's been
- 24:50working on strength nonstop,
- 24:53like it paid off.
- 24:55Um, so I think that's cool,
- 24:57but there's going to be
- 24:57people crushing that 28.
- 24:59Oh yeah.
- 25:01Yeah.
- 25:01But it's not going to keep
- 25:03her out of the game.
- 25:04I don't think so.
- 25:05I think it's going to be a good score.
- 25:07I'm super curious with how
- 25:11well Tudor did in the open.
- 25:14If,
- 25:15if his fitness and was improved enough.
- 25:17Cause like he didn't do
- 25:18great at rogue at that
- 25:20clean and jerk one.
- 25:21So I know, you know,
- 25:22we just watched the event three with,
- 25:25from crash with Savan and them guys.
- 25:28So Hopper made a comment in
- 25:30there that he's only
- 25:31touching a barbell once a week.
- 25:34And that he finished last in
- 25:36that group of four and
- 25:39finished better than
- 25:40expected in the gymnastics
- 25:41workout because that's all
- 25:42he's doing now.
- 25:44Right?
- 25:45Yeah.
- 25:45So I'm wondering with Tudor.
- 25:48Will it be similar?
- 25:49Will it be similar?
- 25:49Like all he's doing is
- 25:51working on his fitness.
- 25:52Is he not even touching a barbell?
- 25:55And it's not like a big
- 25:57massive weight that he can
- 25:59just sling up there once.
- 26:00It's a moderate weight.
- 26:03It it's going to be,
- 26:04I'm going to be anxious to see that.
- 26:05I'm super curious to see his.
- 26:07Yeah.
- 26:09And even Jack for that matter.
- 26:11Yeah.
- 26:11I know people have kind of been like,
- 26:13no way that he's not going to go do good,
- 26:15but I don't know.
- 26:18Yeah.
- 26:20Jack was fitter than, than Tudor by far.
- 26:23Right.
- 26:24Um,
- 26:26Because Jack won an event
- 26:28not weightlifting, right?
- 26:30Or came in second.
- 26:31He got second at El Palco Redux.
- 26:33Yeah.
- 26:34So, like, he has other skills.
- 26:36But anyway, I find that,
- 26:39I think that's going to be fascinating.
- 26:40Like, the big,
- 26:42and I guess same for Kelsey Keel.
- 26:43Like, is her fitness going to be enough?
- 26:46Yeah,
- 26:47the weight's going to be light for her.
- 26:48But,
- 26:52so then we go to the monostructural
- 26:54gymnastics one.
- 26:57That is a fuselage.
- 27:00Yeah.
- 27:03Emma Lawson, unless you do good,
- 27:06you would think it a good one for Alexis.
- 27:11Although the handstand pushup again,
- 27:13aren't the crux of that workout.
- 27:15It's the ring muscle.
- 27:16She has good ring muscle ups
- 27:17upper body pulling in the
- 27:18rope climb and in the
- 27:19muscle ups is going to be insane.
- 27:24And that is a question on
- 27:25the Heat One app.
- 27:26Alexis, Alex.
- 27:28I know.
- 27:32Yeah.
- 27:33Going back and watching it,
- 27:38giving Alexis the nod
- 27:40because of handstand
- 27:41push-ups almost seems like a mistake.
- 27:45Because the best person to
- 27:46handstand push-ups in the
- 27:47men's division is Colton.
- 27:49And it didn't help.
- 27:52So...
- 27:55Yeah.
- 27:57But you're right.
- 27:57Rebecca Fusile should crush this one.
- 28:00Yeah.
- 28:01And she's...
- 28:03And we have her on the show
- 28:04on Tuesday morning.
- 28:05Nice.
- 28:06So there's a reschedule
- 28:08after her family emergency, uh,
- 28:10checked in with her, um,
- 28:12a couple of days ago and all is well, um,
- 28:16which is great news, uh,
- 28:18that first and foremost,
- 28:19but we rescheduled,
- 28:20she'll be on Tuesday
- 28:21morning and hopefully we
- 28:23can talk about event three
- 28:24and how well she did in it.
- 28:27Um,
- 28:29so then we move to we're
- 28:30going backwards through
- 28:31these the second workout
- 28:33which is the wall ball
- 28:36burpees that's one that
- 28:38it's just someone who can
- 28:39hurt right yes like who can
- 28:42hurt yeah and I think I
- 28:46think colton's gonna crush
- 28:47this colton will crush it so will taylor
- 28:51wall balls were a goat of
- 28:52his that he hit extensively
- 28:55and he's the best burpee
- 28:58guy in the business.
- 29:00So we found out, um,
- 29:03other people like that, like,
- 29:08I think that's like a Saxon workout.
- 29:13Yeah.
- 29:14Um, Jay crouch.
- 29:17Yeah.
- 29:20Who on the women's side?
- 29:25I mean, you would,
- 29:26you would have picked Emma Carey.
- 29:28Um, I think Danielle will do good at it.
- 29:36Okay.
- 29:38I think that's the workout that Tia wins.
- 29:43Yeah.
- 29:45If, if her wrist is fine.
- 29:47I mean,
- 29:47it sounds like the burpees weren't
- 29:49great for her before.
- 29:50So she was like,
- 29:52I think she was like going
- 29:53down on her fist or something.
- 29:54She wasn't.
- 29:55So you can't do that for 150.
- 29:56No, no.
- 29:58Yeah.
- 29:59I,
- 29:59I've hurt my wrist back in the day and I
- 30:02did the fist coming up.
- 30:04Not,
- 30:05not the most efficient way to do a
- 30:07burpee.
- 30:10I think Pat will crush this one too.
- 30:12Oh yeah.
- 30:13Yeah.
- 30:13And, and,
- 30:16Brent will kill the wall ball,
- 30:18but his burpees are not as fast as Pat's.
- 30:22No.
- 30:23So, yeah,
- 30:25that's just off the top of my head.
- 30:28And then we go to the interval workout,
- 30:30and that one just,
- 30:32it's a little bit of everything,
- 30:33and I just don't know.
- 30:34I think Jay Crouch will do
- 30:37well at that one, too.
- 30:40Yeah,
- 30:42I really had a lot on Dallin for that
- 30:46one.
- 30:47The snatches would be easy for him.
- 30:48The row, he can pull so hard.
- 30:52And he's fairly tall.
- 30:53Like, he's not hopper tall.
- 30:56And then hopper's going to do well in that,
- 30:57too,
- 30:57because those step-ups will be rest
- 30:59for him.
- 31:01Yeah.
- 31:0220-inch step-ups, yeah.
- 31:03Yeah.
- 31:05Fikowski.
- 31:05Yeah.
- 31:09Yeah, that's...
- 31:11tutor if he's fit but but no
- 31:14300s oh no no we got a note
- 31:20from carolyn she'll be
- 31:21honest if she gets home so
- 31:25okay so that's who will do
- 31:27well I gotta open my phone again um
- 31:35So we talked about, are these a good test?
- 31:41Watching the people at crash,
- 31:43watching people do it today.
- 31:45Did you learn anything today
- 31:47that you were wrong about going in?
- 31:54No, I can't use that.
- 31:55These people for cleaning jerks.
- 31:57It is what it is.
- 31:59Um,
- 32:01And for me, it's a muscle up workout.
- 32:04So I, again,
- 32:06watching them doesn't help me a ton.
- 32:11I say that,
- 32:11but like watching Lindsay
- 32:13probably does help me a lot.
- 32:17Um, maybe coming up with a pacing strategy,
- 32:19even if I'm 20,
- 32:2330 seconds slower than her,
- 32:25if I can hold not have two fails,
- 32:29hold some doubles, um,
- 32:31Um, then maybe I can sneak under that.
- 32:33What was she?
- 32:3513 something.
- 32:37Yeah.
- 32:37Yeah.
- 32:38If I could break 13,
- 32:39I think that'd be huge.
- 32:43Don't give me that look.
- 32:45You better be well below 13
- 32:47on that workout.
- 32:51It's a ring muscle up workout.
- 32:55It is not.
- 32:55You're going to get,
- 32:56you are going to get some
- 32:58advantage on the rope climbs.
- 32:59You are such a good rope climber.
- 33:03sure yeah your toes to bar
- 33:07you're are so efficient
- 33:10hear me out can I finish
- 33:11can I finish your toes to
- 33:14bar efficient your
- 33:15handstand push-ups are
- 33:16efficient it's all about
- 33:17efficiency early on so that
- 33:19you're not so fatigued when
- 33:21it comes to the end your
- 33:23rope climbs are so efficient and so fast
- 33:28And the key to your rope
- 33:30climbs is your descent,
- 33:31which is important on a
- 33:3315-foot rope climb.
- 33:35And that's where you're
- 33:36going to make up some ground.
- 33:38And then it's just,
- 33:38can you hang on to do some muscle-ups?
- 33:42Yeah.
- 33:44If it's anything like the
- 33:45open workout two years ago
- 33:47with 20 at the end, it won't be good.
- 33:49So let's hope I've gotten better.
- 33:52You've gotten better.
- 33:55All right.
- 33:56Yeah.
- 33:56Ken asks about Haley Adams.
- 33:59I think she's winning anything.
- 34:03I'm taking a wait and see approach.
- 34:04Yeah.
- 34:09I would say no.
- 34:10I think the odds are slim to
- 34:13none that she's winning a workout,
- 34:16but she could have some great scores.
- 34:19Yeah.
- 34:20I just don't,
- 34:24I don't think that winning
- 34:25is the most important thing
- 34:26for her right now.
- 34:27This is not the stage to even be.
- 34:29Well,
- 34:30and I don't even think this season is
- 34:31about winning.
- 34:33True.
- 34:33This,
- 34:34this season was about finding herself
- 34:36and a balance in her life
- 34:37that made sense.
- 34:40Very true.
- 34:40Right.
- 34:41And so I don't really think
- 34:42that that's the number one priority.
- 34:45And when it's not the number one priority,
- 34:46it's hard to win.
- 34:49Very true.
- 34:50so that's my uh freudian
- 34:53assessment of that um now I
- 35:00want to talk about why the
- 35:01heat one app is stupid you
- 35:04want me both I am addicted
- 35:09to the heat one app
- 35:11I love that they have done that.
- 35:13Tyler has done an amazing
- 35:14job making that an option
- 35:18for us to play along.
- 35:19Love it.
- 35:21But when you go out on a
- 35:23limb and pick Colton to win
- 35:27the clean and jerk workout
- 35:28because you have a feeling
- 35:31and Dallin to take second
- 35:33and they tie and you get
- 35:36zero points because of a tie break.
- 35:45You should be rewarded for
- 35:46going out on a limb.
- 35:47I agree.
- 35:51And damn, that irks me.
- 35:53What was the time break?
- 35:56I know Lex is sitting at
- 35:57home right now with her
- 35:59heat one app looking about
- 36:01how far ahead she is of me.
- 36:04I couldn't stand to look.
- 36:06Lex, what say you?
- 36:10This morning,
- 36:11we had the same score and
- 36:13they put her ahead of me.
- 36:16We both had 45 points.
- 36:19They had me in 81st and her in like 72nd.
- 36:22That's not right.
- 36:24How's the tiebreak work on that?
- 36:25I have no idea.
- 36:29But I'm cursed.
- 36:30I know.
- 36:31We got screwed on that one.
- 36:35I don't even...
- 36:41At least in horse racing, you get win,
- 36:44place, or show.
- 36:44Like, come on.
- 36:48You're kicking my butt.
- 36:49I have 921st.
- 36:51I'm probably down there now.
- 36:52I don't think I scored anything today.
- 36:56I mean, I have 30 points.
- 37:03Got to get Carolyn in there.
- 37:08I got it.
- 37:10Oh, you took her out.
- 37:13Oh, pizza.
- 37:14With pizza.
- 37:17I haven't had pizza in so long.
- 37:20Like months.
- 37:22That's what we had.
- 37:23I just haven't had enough
- 37:25calories in me all day.
- 37:27And I went to Booster Juice
- 37:29tonight to grab a smoothie
- 37:31with protein added in it.
- 37:32And then there's a pizza
- 37:33pizza right beside.
- 37:34And I was like,
- 37:35I need to have food as well.
- 37:36I'm not going to eat too much pizza,
- 37:37but I just need more cows.
- 37:40I haven't had last.
- 37:41My last meal was at,
- 37:43after I coached soccer
- 37:44practice at lunch at school today,
- 37:48maybe 11 o'clock was my last meal.
- 37:49And it's eight 37 now.
- 37:52That's not good.
- 37:53Yeah.
- 37:54I was in the same boat.
- 37:55I had eight at like 10.
- 37:57Cause I went to the gym to
- 37:57do the workout at noon or whatever.
- 37:59And then I ended up doing a second.
- 38:01And then.
- 38:02Went back for Haley.
- 38:03So yeah, I had pizza as well.
- 38:06And a lot.
- 38:07So to finish off the Heat One app,
- 38:09I have 45 points still.
- 38:10Kicking my butt.
- 38:13And I'm in 870th.
- 38:16We're just complaining about
- 38:17the Heat One app because I
- 38:19picked Colton to win the
- 38:22clean and jerk workout,
- 38:24but because he tied and
- 38:25lost the tie break, I got zero points.
- 38:27How many reps did they end up hitting?
- 38:2931. 31.
- 38:32Do you think the girls will
- 38:33get more reps here because
- 38:34the weight is lighter?
- 38:36Fi got 28.
- 38:40I think you're very top.
- 38:43You're going to have like, I don't know,
- 38:4620, 30 girls who beat the men.
- 38:49But then you're going to
- 38:50have hundreds of men who
- 38:52smash the rest of the girls.
- 38:57Because 245 normally goes with 175, right?
- 39:03Yeah, the prediction online was 135.
- 39:06The top woman.
- 39:08I think the top woman will be high.
- 39:1440 reps.
- 39:15I think so too.
- 39:16I think you're going to see
- 39:17above 40 for some people.
- 39:19Like the very strong girls
- 39:22that have even if they
- 39:24don't have the most engine,
- 39:26if they can just move that barbell,
- 39:28they're hitting a lot.
- 39:32Sorry, I'm just chopping down this.
- 39:34I'm almost bragging in the chat.
- 39:37Good for you, Amanda.
- 39:39Nice job.
- 39:40We're all tied for first right now.
- 39:43No, I'm in 921st.
- 39:45I'm in 870th.
- 39:45Oh, for the heat one?
- 39:47Yeah.
- 39:48Oh,
- 39:49I thought you meant for the overall
- 39:51leaderboard.
- 39:52I think we all have ones.
- 39:53Yeah.
- 39:54so uh you started a
- 39:56conversation that sounded
- 39:58crispy and then mark also
- 40:01said crispy crust is
- 40:02greater than doughy crust
- 40:05it's actually a gluten-free
- 40:07one that I haven't to hide
- 40:09before I started going
- 40:10gluten-free last month or
- 40:12two just because my
- 40:13psoriasis has been getting
- 40:15bad I just want to try it helps
- 40:22It depends on my mood.
- 40:23Sometimes I like crispy.
- 40:24Sometimes I like doughy.
- 40:25It just depends on the mood.
- 40:26I like a little crispy crust.
- 40:28It's good.
- 40:30We had Hungry Howie's flavor crust,
- 40:33which is my favorite.
- 40:36Now that I know it's crispy,
- 40:37I'm just not going to take
- 40:38a bite for a little bit or
- 40:39I'll mute myself.
- 40:41Crunch.
- 40:42So quick question while we have you here.
- 40:45We're about to move off of the quarters.
- 40:48anything you want to say
- 40:49about the workouts?
- 40:50Cause we went over it.
- 40:52We both love the test.
- 40:54We think that we love the
- 40:56way it came out and its design.
- 40:59Any,
- 40:59anything you have from an 30,000 foot.
- 41:03When, when they first came out, I was like,
- 41:05gosh, that's a lot of vertical pressing.
- 41:08You have handstand pushups,
- 41:09wall balls and clean and
- 41:11jerks and three out of the
- 41:12four different workouts.
- 41:13I noticed that because I'm
- 41:14not a great presser.
- 41:15Right.
- 41:15So like,
- 41:15you're going to notice certain things.
- 41:17I'm like,
- 41:18well,
- 41:18they could have done something
- 41:19different or more squatting
- 41:21and stuff like that.
- 41:22And I was like, press.
- 41:23And then the burpee with the wall ball,
- 41:25I'm like, press, press.
- 41:26But then when you actually
- 41:27start doing them, you realize, oh,
- 41:30there's some legs in there too.
- 41:33Yeah,
- 41:34the wall ball one with the burpees
- 41:37has a lot of legs too.
- 41:41So I think it's okay that there's no,
- 41:45I mean,
- 41:45that the wall ball is the only
- 41:46squatting movement.
- 41:48Because you do have the step-ups,
- 41:51although I think that's
- 41:52more grippy on the forearms.
- 41:54The grip will be more of a limiting factor,
- 41:57I think, on the step-ups than the legs.
- 42:00I would think so.
- 42:02Not for you.
- 42:02No.
- 42:03I think it's grippy.
- 42:07I've heard that, but no,
- 42:09I did not feel like it was grippy.
- 42:12Then, yeah,
- 42:12I think you have a nice gymnastics one.
- 42:15You have,
- 42:16I was surprised to see a strictly
- 42:19weightlifting one out of
- 42:20like one of the four tests,
- 42:22but because it's not a max,
- 42:24I like that way better.
- 42:27Like if you're going to have
- 42:28a purely monostructural,
- 42:31not monostructural.
- 42:33Single modality.
- 42:34Yeah.
- 42:35Single modality movement,
- 42:37like a clean and jerk.
- 42:39I'm glad that it's,
- 42:41it's not just about the weight,
- 42:42but you also need to have
- 42:44some fitness to back it up
- 42:45because some people are
- 42:46very good at moving, you know,
- 42:49super heavy weights one time.
- 42:51And then you have those
- 42:51other athletes that are
- 42:52able to just kind of find a
- 42:54rhythm and cycle.
- 42:56So you're giving a chance to
- 42:59fit athletes as well to
- 43:01have to make a move there.
- 43:03Um, yeah,
- 43:04I think the first two tests are
- 43:07leg engine dominant, maybe.
- 43:11And I guess grippy with the row one.
- 43:18Last two have a lot of specialty, I think.
- 43:22Yeah.
- 43:23I think the last two are
- 43:24specialized workouts.
- 43:26If you're a good gymnast,
- 43:28I think you're going to see
- 43:30a big gap in that number three workout,
- 43:35the gymnastics one, between workouts.
- 43:37some of the top gymnasts,
- 43:40males and females.
- 43:41Yeah.
- 43:41I think sub eight for the
- 43:43men will be good.
- 43:44Uh, I don't know.
- 43:47I think the men should be
- 43:48better than the females on that one,
- 43:50just with the rope climbs
- 43:51and just their gymnastics
- 43:53capacity normally being a
- 43:54little bit higher.
- 43:55Yeah.
- 43:56I don't know that we'll see
- 43:57females sub eight,
- 43:58just cause I don't think we
- 43:59rope climb as fast.
- 44:01Uh,
- 44:01I think it's going to be in maybe the
- 44:03high eights.
- 44:04I don't know for, I haven't done that one.
- 44:06Um,
- 44:07So they went today at crash
- 44:11fee went nine 15, 14 or 15.
- 44:14Yeah.
- 44:14Yeah.
- 44:16And Taylor went seven 59.
- 44:18And I think that's actually
- 44:21really impressive by fee,
- 44:22but fee has one of the best gymnastics.
- 44:26Like she won a quarterfinal
- 44:28workout that had GHDs
- 44:32pistols and rope climb a few years ago.
- 44:35I think she won it.
- 44:37Or top three.
- 44:40Oh, the 50-40-30-20-10?
- 44:43I remember her crushing that one.
- 44:46I think if she's getting 8-14,
- 44:48that's going to be a very,
- 44:50very good score.
- 44:51I would think.
- 44:52I didn't see it, but 9-14.
- 44:549-14.
- 44:56The shock, the shock of the day.
- 44:58Okay.
- 44:59I was thinking eight 14 and I was like,
- 45:01wow, that close to, um, no.
- 45:04Okay.
- 45:04Okay.
- 45:05Okay.
- 45:05Nine 14.
- 45:06I think,
- 45:06I think you'll see some sub nine for, um,
- 45:12maybe like an eight 45,
- 45:14something like that for
- 45:15some Tia out there.
- 45:17Yes.
- 45:18There will be somebody who goes sub nine.
- 45:20Yeah, for sure.
- 45:21Just so you know,
- 45:23was Jason Hopper when eight 19.
- 45:28And beat Colton.
- 45:31So what Taylor self, Jason Hopper,
- 45:34then Colton.
- 45:35Yeah.
- 45:36And Dallin.
- 45:38I would expect Dallin fourth on that one.
- 45:41The rest on Dallin should do well.
- 45:43Not that he probably won't
- 45:45do well on that one,
- 45:45but I'm just saying in comparison to them,
- 45:47I'm surprised Hopper beat Colton on that.
- 45:49I think everybody was.
- 45:51What was Colton's time on that?
- 45:53Did he blow up?
- 45:56It was the rope climbs.
- 45:57The rope climbs got him bad.
- 45:59And Kenneth actually says this.
- 46:02I wasn't paying a whole lot of attention,
- 46:03but to Colton say he's used
- 46:05a new muscle up technique.
- 46:07No, he used a new rope climb technique.
- 46:10They're trying to get it.
- 46:11So he only needs two pools
- 46:13to get to the top of the rope.
- 46:15And so he was trying it.
- 46:17It looked really bad.
- 46:18Like he would jump and hang
- 46:20and then do a big kip.
- 46:22to kind of get up the rope
- 46:23and it looked really
- 46:25awkward and he said it is
- 46:26not comfortable for him yet
- 46:29see I wouldn't be playing
- 46:30around with that in the
- 46:31quarters but maybe for him
- 46:32he's looking past the
- 46:33quarters anyways and he's
- 46:34prepping for semis like
- 46:35he's that type of athlete
- 46:36that can do that yeah and
- 46:39then he said what it forced
- 46:40what happened is he had to
- 46:41hang on the rope so long
- 46:43that it blew up his grip yeah
- 46:50So, yeah.
- 46:51So he did not like 10.
- 46:54Wasn't he 10?
- 46:57Maybe it was nine, nine 30.
- 46:58I just don't think he,
- 47:00were they unbroken on the
- 47:01handstand pushups?
- 47:03Yes, he was.
- 47:04Oh yeah.
- 47:05His handstand pushups.
- 47:06All the,
- 47:06all the guys didn't break the handstand.
- 47:09What about the girls?
- 47:11No, no.
- 47:13He went fives on everything.
- 47:15Five, three, two on the wall facing.
- 47:21I'm not very good at wall-facing.
- 47:25I feel like everyone looks
- 47:26so fast when they do it,
- 47:27and I feel like their range
- 47:28of motion is... Sorry,
- 47:29I didn't turn on the lights behind me.
- 47:31But they look so fast with their hands,
- 47:33and it's like... And in mine,
- 47:34I feel like I'm like... I
- 47:36have all this space between
- 47:38the floor and my head, and everyone else,
- 47:40I'm like... You have this
- 47:42much space between...
- 47:44I'm like is that why I can
- 47:45deadlift because my arms
- 47:46are like I just feel like
- 47:47I'm like pushing forever
- 47:49and I'm like is it done yet
- 47:52like I'm slow at them like
- 47:53everyone I can't figure out
- 47:56we just have long arms so
- 47:58we are keeping everything
- 47:59close to the vest um but
- 48:02jamie did two of the
- 48:03workouts today do you have
- 48:05do you have any in I have three
- 48:08You've done three workouts?
- 48:11Holy cow.
- 48:12I did one after work yesterday.
- 48:14Okay.
- 48:16I did the wall ball one after work,
- 48:17which I wouldn't suggest
- 48:18anyone do that one first.
- 48:20But my back wasn't good yet.
- 48:23I hurt my back last Tuesday.
- 48:26Remember I talked about that?
- 48:28I didn't lift a barbell or
- 48:29anything for a week.
- 48:32I moved a sandbag that was
- 48:33underneath a shelf.
- 48:37And I think I just kind of
- 48:38did something weird and I
- 48:39picked it up to do like carries.
- 48:41And I think I just got
- 48:42compressed a little bit.
- 48:44So I didn't do anything like
- 48:46the full week besides,
- 48:47Strict pull-ups, horizontal pull-ups,
- 48:52bench.
- 48:52But with my feet elevated,
- 48:54I did seated strict press
- 48:58and belt squats and step-ups, actually.
- 49:01I did a lot of step-ups.
- 49:02So I didn't do anything.
- 49:04So I felt like I needed one more day.
- 49:07My back feels fine now.
- 49:08It feels good.
- 49:10No issues.
- 49:10There's going to be no excuse for that.
- 49:13But I wanted one more day without a...
- 49:19barbell it wasn't inflection
- 49:20it was an extension that it
- 49:22was hurting me so I decided
- 49:24to do the wall ball one
- 49:25first a little sore today
- 49:27but not as bad as I thought
- 49:30not as bad as I thought
- 49:30because last night after I
- 49:33did it I have a pool on my
- 49:35condo and hot tub so I
- 49:37don't have I do have a cold
- 49:38tub but it's empty right
- 49:39here beside me um
- 49:42I just did like pool hot tub
- 49:44for like 45 minutes last
- 49:46night and then went in the
- 49:46sauna that I still have
- 49:47like downstairs on my condo.
- 49:50And then I took an Advil to
- 49:52try to get some
- 49:52inflammation out and I
- 49:53never take like any Advil
- 49:55ibuprofen or anything.
- 49:57So I'm like,
- 49:57maybe it's just going to help
- 49:58me the next day.
- 49:59And I felt not as bad today,
- 50:02but as the day went on,
- 50:03I was getting stiffer and stiffer.
- 50:06Yeah.
- 50:06Yeah.
- 50:07Um, so I was happy.
- 50:09Like I got to coach my girl
- 50:10soccer today so I could like walk around,
- 50:12move and kind of do something.
- 50:15And then tonight I did the
- 50:17clean and jerk one.
- 50:18Okay.
- 50:20And the real one.
- 50:23Yep.
- 50:23So technically right now I'm done both,
- 50:26both of the ones that are due Saturday.
- 50:28And then it gives me an
- 50:29option tomorrow to see how my body feels.
- 50:31If I want to take that as a rest day.
- 50:34Yeah.
- 50:34And then Saturday morning I
- 50:36could redo one of the ones
- 50:38that are due Saturday.
- 50:40And then I would probably in
- 50:41the evening do a gymnastics one.
- 50:44The or even if I if I want to,
- 50:46I just on Sunday do the gymnastics one.
- 50:49And then if I don't like it,
- 50:50I Monday like a desperation redo.
- 50:53Yeah.
- 50:54So, yeah, I'm three down right now.
- 50:56That's awesome.
- 50:57It's not bad when I have worked both days.
- 51:00I haven't taken a day off.
- 51:03So I did two back to back tonight.
- 51:05I didn't feel like the clean
- 51:06and jerk one crushed me though.
- 51:09Like I didn't feel like I,
- 51:14like I was beat down from
- 51:16the clean and jerk where I
- 51:17couldn't do another one
- 51:18like an hour later.
- 51:20So like if I,
- 51:21if I was healthier yesterday or if I like,
- 51:24I just didn't want to do it.
- 51:25Like I was still healthy yesterday.
- 51:26I just didn't want to push
- 51:29the barbells my first one.
- 51:30And then I'm screwed for the rest.
- 51:34i would do the clean and
- 51:36jerk first then probably
- 51:38the snatch one then the
- 51:43wall ball one I still think
- 51:44the dramatic one doesn't
- 51:45need to be done now like I
- 51:47i feel like I'm used to
- 51:49those movements I can do
- 51:50them throughout the weekend
- 51:53for me anyways it's what's
- 51:55funny is you you said after
- 51:57the clean and jerk you felt
- 51:58like you it didn't take
- 52:00that much out of you and
- 52:00you were good to go
- 52:03I get here, talk to my friend,
- 52:05and she's like,
- 52:06I had to wait too long
- 52:07after the clean and jerk to go.
- 52:09I wanted to go while I was still warm,
- 52:11and it actually,
- 52:12because other people needed to do theirs,
- 52:15she didn't get that opportunity.
- 52:17And so it's just funny that
- 52:21you guys kind of talk in a
- 52:22similar way about it.
- 52:24The longer I was waiting,
- 52:25the stiffer I was getting.
- 52:26And I didn't really do much
- 52:27of a warm-up going into the snatch one,
- 52:29which probably not the best idea,
- 52:31but I don't normally warm up.
- 52:33Very much anyways.
- 52:34Maybe that's why I was on
- 52:36commission last week.
- 52:40But I never have any injuries,
- 52:44knock on wood.
- 52:46But I made sure that I was
- 52:49taken care of for the week.
- 52:51I mean, it was four intervals.
- 52:52I figured interval one was the warm-up.
- 52:56I was like, I'll feel how it is.
- 52:57I'll adjust after.
- 52:58So I just want to reiterate a fact.
- 53:01Carolyn Prevost did three
- 53:03workouts already and worked both days.
- 53:07And that's why she's the
- 53:08Daddy Mac and the Mac Daddy.
- 53:13Impressive.
- 53:15So all my report card comments this week,
- 53:19I corrected a bunch of my
- 53:21tests that they had on Monday.
- 53:22I wanted to finish all of my
- 53:23schoolwork before the
- 53:25quarterfinal started so
- 53:27that it wasn't overlapping.
- 53:30So Monday and Tuesday was
- 53:32like head down in the evening.
- 53:33Okay.
- 53:36So we're going to hit a
- 53:37couple of news bits.
- 53:39This week, HWPO purchased DECA.
- 53:44Kind of a surprise move.
- 53:47And I'm sure everybody's
- 53:48immediate thought is,
- 53:49what does that do to Pat Vellner?
- 53:52He's an HWPO athlete.
- 53:54But Michelle has made a few trips to HWPO.
- 53:57She's done a few of their,
- 53:58like she was at their opening.
- 54:01She's been,
- 54:01I think she's been there like
- 54:02two or three times.
- 54:03So I've always thought that
- 54:04that was weird.
- 54:04I was like, oh,
- 54:05maybe she's just good
- 54:05friends from Matt and is
- 54:07trying to learn from Matt
- 54:08for Pat Vellner.
- 54:10So then when it happens, like, oh,
- 54:12that makes, it actually makes sense.
- 54:13It's pretty close to Montreal.
- 54:16And I feel like they
- 54:17probably had a good
- 54:17relationship going into it.
- 54:20So I wasn't as surprised,
- 54:22but I'm very glad that Pat
- 54:25is staying with Michelle and is like,
- 54:27just like loyal.
- 54:28Cause you just don't see
- 54:29that anymore in athletes.
- 54:31Like everyone just switches
- 54:32every year and you know,
- 54:34like Pat's done well,
- 54:36like they're up and down together.
- 54:38And I love that.
- 54:41So my first thought being a
- 54:43business major myself was,
- 54:47are they expanding to in
- 54:48too many different directions?
- 54:52Because there has been some
- 54:53criticism with some of them
- 54:56with the owner on a podcast
- 54:59who can't even remember who's where,
- 55:01who's what.
- 55:03Um, if you, if you,
- 55:07diversify so much are you
- 55:10taking away the greatness
- 55:14with the one-on-one I don't
- 55:22know I think in a way
- 55:23that's just a little
- 55:26nitpicky of people thinking
- 55:28that Matt is the head coach
- 55:33and I think it's kind of
- 55:34quite evident that that's not the case
- 55:39Um, and, and people just want, I mean,
- 55:41he's,
- 55:42I think he's just focused on being a
- 55:43dad and like kind of
- 55:45facilitating that business, but he's,
- 55:47he probably is only really
- 55:48working with Katrin and that's it.
- 55:50And the, like,
- 55:52he's not keeping tabs on anyone else.
- 55:55Yeah.
- 55:55I mean,
- 55:55he used his name and his success to,
- 55:58you know, to build this program and,
- 56:03you know, everything,
- 56:03it happens so fast and so successful.
- 56:06Right.
- 56:07And I think that he's been
- 56:08able to delegate different
- 56:09responsibilities so that he can now be,
- 56:12be a dad.
- 56:13And I think that he's doing
- 56:14less of the one-on-one
- 56:16stuff and probably pick and
- 56:17choosing a little bit more.
- 56:18Cause I was probably taking
- 56:19up a lot of time and things
- 56:21are going to change when
- 56:21you have a family and he's
- 56:23like not competing anymore.
- 56:24And like, I'm sure he's focused.
- 56:28See rich and you want to,
- 56:32you want Matt to kind of
- 56:34follow in those footsteps.
- 56:35And that's just not happening.
- 56:37Like Rich is way more hands-on.
- 56:39He could tell you.
- 56:40And if Rich doesn't know the answer,
- 56:43he knows who does have the answer.
- 56:46Like he doesn't him haul.
- 56:47He just is like, well,
- 56:48you need to talk to Jake about that.
- 56:51Or you need to talk about, you know, Yeah.
- 56:57Rich is so involved within
- 56:58the Mayhem community.
- 56:59He's at the gym every day.
- 57:01He's talking to people.
- 57:04He's doing it.
- 57:05There's a reason.
- 57:07That's why people love him.
- 57:12Like Matt,
- 57:13you were hopeful that he could
- 57:16bring that same...
- 57:18They're just so, they're different.
- 57:20They're just different.
- 57:21They're so different.
- 57:23And it is what it is.
- 57:24And we keep trying to like,
- 57:25wanting to compare, but they're just,
- 57:27they're different.
- 57:28Right.
- 57:29That's it.
- 57:30So now you have HWPO and you have Mayhem,
- 57:35which are massive, right?
- 57:38They have so many different
- 57:39programs available to every
- 57:41level of athlete, every kind of athlete.
- 57:45Does it leave a place for,
- 57:48the underdogs the ttt's the
- 57:53ascends like are they do
- 57:56they still have a place
- 57:58sure or do you think
- 57:58they're going to be gobbled
- 57:59up like costco and no
- 58:09people want to have different things too
- 58:12Like,
- 58:12not everyone wants to be in a huge
- 58:14training camp where, like,
- 58:16they want to have more attention.
- 58:17And you're going to get more
- 58:18attention being at
- 58:18underdogs or brood or training think tank,
- 58:21maybe, like, just a little bit smaller.
- 58:24Still great coaches, right?
- 58:25Or doing your own thing.
- 58:26Like, there's also – oh, my God,
- 58:29why am I blanking on his name?
- 58:31He's growing in Europe.
- 58:32He has Manon.
- 58:34He has –
- 58:36Oh, Andre Houdet.
- 58:40Yeah, Houdet.
- 58:41You're going to get
- 58:42different... No shortcuts.
- 58:45That's what it is.
- 58:48People don't always want to
- 58:49do what everyone else is doing.
- 58:54He's growing pretty fast in Europe.
- 58:56Man.
- 58:58He's got like five more athletes.
- 59:01The only thing that's nice
- 59:02about training camps is...
- 59:04like the productions that
- 59:06they do for like their
- 59:07workouts and the media
- 59:08content and stuff that you get there,
- 59:10like that,
- 59:11that helps promote your brand
- 59:12so that then you can get
- 59:14sponsorships through, you know,
- 59:16to help cover some costs of your season.
- 59:18Like, but other than that,
- 59:22I think staying within a
- 59:24coach that can see you
- 59:25daily and maybe not as big
- 59:29as it's probably better.
- 59:31This is an interesting comment.
- 59:33HWPO and mayhem are the
- 59:34planet fitness of CrossFit
- 59:35programming accurate or not.
- 59:44I think lifetime fitness is
- 59:45probably more accurate.
- 59:46Yeah.
- 59:47Lifetime fitness,
- 59:48lifetime fitness is awesome.
- 59:50That place is.
- 59:51Yeah, it does.
- 59:52That's exactly it.
- 59:53Like HWPO and mayhem can be awesome,
- 59:56but they are doing
- 59:58programming for the masses.
- 59:59Yes.
- 1:00:03Doesn't mean they're not awesome.
- 1:00:05They're just for the masses.
- 1:00:08Um,
- 1:00:11I think Corey says people like what
- 1:00:13they like brute and TTT and
- 1:00:14underdogs and the rest have
- 1:00:16their following and it's
- 1:00:17loyal and it's growing.
- 1:00:19It is growing.
- 1:00:21And like, look at brute,
- 1:00:22like they had what five
- 1:00:24athletes at the games last year,
- 1:00:25five out of five.
- 1:00:26unbelievable for, for Torres and,
- 1:00:28and that gang, like it's awesome.
- 1:00:31Yeah.
- 1:00:31And like underdogs, like look,
- 1:00:32look at the development of
- 1:00:34Alex Kazan and look what
- 1:00:37like Danielle and she was there also.
- 1:00:39Right.
- 1:00:39Like obviously she, um,
- 1:00:42she'll be successful basically anywhere,
- 1:00:43but like Gazan really grew.
- 1:00:46with underdogs and Carrie
- 1:00:47Pierce stayed with, um,
- 1:00:50with Justin and like,
- 1:00:51they were like in the New
- 1:00:52York area and then they moved today.
- 1:00:53Like,
- 1:00:54it's just when you have someone that
- 1:00:56you trust and that believes in you,
- 1:00:58like you're going to be successful.
- 1:01:01Well, and if you look at underdogs and I,
- 1:01:02we just talked to Justin, what,
- 1:01:03two weeks ago,
- 1:01:04he's got Ricky Gerard on the men's side,
- 1:01:07Alex Kazan on the women's side,
- 1:01:09Sarah?
- 1:01:10Yeah, Sarah now, right?
- 1:01:11Yep.
- 1:01:14Another... I don't know if
- 1:01:16she's from Australia.
- 1:01:17Maybe New Zealand.
- 1:01:18Caitlin Venzel?
- 1:01:21She's going team, right?
- 1:01:22Or no?
- 1:01:23Is she doing team this year?
- 1:01:25I think she's indie.
- 1:01:26But she's always great in Oceania.
- 1:01:31Like, Underdogs has some good people.
- 1:01:35Yeah.
- 1:01:35Oh, and they have Bronislaw, too.
- 1:01:38Bronislaw?
- 1:01:38Yep.
- 1:01:41So, yeah.
- 1:01:42But you look at Ricky and Alex, I mean,
- 1:01:44they're top five athletes.
- 1:01:47To have one on each side is
- 1:01:48pretty impressive for a smaller camp.
- 1:01:56All right.
- 1:01:56So there's that.
- 1:01:59And as I've been telling people, Caroline,
- 1:02:01I'm on my phone for notes
- 1:02:03because I only have one screen tonight.
- 1:02:06Did you guys see Cooper
- 1:02:07Marsh's Boston Marathon story?
- 1:02:11I did not.
- 1:02:13So I've been friends with
- 1:02:13Cooper for a while and I
- 1:02:15know I dogged him about the
- 1:02:17Daniel Brandon documentary,
- 1:02:19but what happened to him at
- 1:02:20Boston was scary.
- 1:02:24He actually does not
- 1:02:25remember finishing the Boston marathon.
- 1:02:29He, I guess,
- 1:02:31was falling over and a medic grabbed him.
- 1:02:35They put two IVs in him to
- 1:02:38try to get him back.
- 1:02:43And he says, like,
- 1:02:45walking from the medical tent to his car,
- 1:02:49he pissed himself and shit
- 1:02:50himself on the way because
- 1:02:52he could not control himself.
- 1:02:54Did he finish?
- 1:02:54He did.
- 1:02:55He finished.
- 1:02:57He finished.
- 1:02:59So this is all post.
- 1:03:00All post.
- 1:03:01Did he say at what point in
- 1:03:02the race that everything
- 1:03:04was just... He said he was
- 1:03:06on a really good pace with
- 1:03:07six miles to go,
- 1:03:09and then things started getting hard.
- 1:03:12That's about right.
- 1:03:13The last three are terrible.
- 1:03:14Have you done one before?
- 1:03:17Yeah.
- 1:03:18And there was a point where
- 1:03:19he completely blacks out,
- 1:03:21does not remember anything.
- 1:03:24And I want to say the last three miles.
- 1:03:26Yeah.
- 1:03:26Yeah.
- 1:03:27And then he remembers
- 1:03:28vaguely getting his
- 1:03:29finishing metal and that's
- 1:03:32where he fell over and they caught him,
- 1:03:36but he did not fill out his
- 1:03:38emergency contact.
- 1:03:41So nobody knew where he was.
- 1:03:43Didn't they have all the, I mean,
- 1:03:45I saw like,
- 1:03:46I don't know if it was live
- 1:03:47coverage or whatever of
- 1:03:49like Matt following along Sammy, like,
- 1:03:52weren't they all there?
- 1:03:54Yeah.
- 1:03:54It was Matt O'Keefe,
- 1:03:55Sammy and Cooper doing
- 1:03:57something for charity.
- 1:03:58Right.
- 1:03:59Um, Frazier was on the sideline.
- 1:04:01Like I thought they had
- 1:04:03several crew members there.
- 1:04:04Yeah.
- 1:04:05I didn't see any of that, but yeah,
- 1:04:10I'm just glad he's okay.
- 1:04:11Yeah.
- 1:04:11That's telling the story now,
- 1:04:14but whenever you're in a competition,
- 1:04:18make sure you fill out the
- 1:04:18emergency contact at least.
- 1:04:22This makes me not want to do
- 1:04:23a marathon even more than I
- 1:04:30made it to a quarter marathon.
- 1:04:32And when I finished, I was like, yep,
- 1:04:33that's far enough.
- 1:04:35Never need to go further than that.
- 1:04:37I just feel like it hurts my
- 1:04:38joints to run that long.
- 1:04:40Like my knees just start hurting.
- 1:04:41My hips start hurting.
- 1:04:42I'm like, oh, ankles.
- 1:04:45It's not like the muscles.
- 1:04:46It's just like my like bones hurt.
- 1:04:48Yeah.
- 1:04:52So I don't know what Aaron
- 1:04:53is referring to.
- 1:04:54Is Gracie Walton an underdog?
- 1:04:57No, she's... Well, she might be.
- 1:05:01Actually... I actually think she is.
- 1:05:08I think she might be, yeah.
- 1:05:09I think she's with Kiefer.
- 1:05:10Yeah.
- 1:05:12Now that you said that.
- 1:05:15And yes, you're right, Kenneth.
- 1:05:16People pay to do marathons.
- 1:05:19It's true.
- 1:05:19I don't know why.
- 1:05:23Okay,
- 1:05:24so then I saw this today on barbell
- 1:05:27spin teams are only going
- 1:05:29to be competing two days at semis,
- 1:05:33as opposed to the three of
- 1:05:35opposed to three in the past.
- 1:05:37So,
- 1:05:38back in the day regionals teams did the
- 1:05:41morning individuals afternoon,
- 1:05:43both went three days.
- 1:05:45Last year and the year before,
- 1:05:47teams went Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
- 1:05:51Individuals went Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
- 1:05:54So each one had a day to
- 1:05:55themselves and then the shared two days.
- 1:05:59Now they're cutting teams down to two.
- 1:06:04Which days are they?
- 1:06:06I did not see that.
- 1:06:08I saw it just as we were setting up.
- 1:06:11So I didn't have time to like,
- 1:06:12if they get a day where
- 1:06:14it's just themselves,
- 1:06:15I wonder if they would do
- 1:06:15like three workouts that
- 1:06:17day versus like two, two, two,
- 1:06:19like you could do like a
- 1:06:20three and then a two or
- 1:06:21something like that.
- 1:06:22Or two, then a three on the final,
- 1:06:24whatever day is not
- 1:06:25overlapping with the individuals.
- 1:06:26Like they could do three.
- 1:06:27I am going blind to see if I can.
- 1:06:34Okay.
- 1:06:34Okay.
- 1:06:41In an email CrossFit shared with the teams,
- 1:06:44in the email that shared with teams,
- 1:06:51they will only be competing
- 1:06:52two days at semis.
- 1:06:53Teams will compete on Friday
- 1:06:54and Saturday with the
- 1:06:56podium ceremony Saturday night.
- 1:07:00The news is a departure from
- 1:07:02previous years where teams
- 1:07:03and individuals competed
- 1:07:04over the course of three
- 1:07:06last year in North America and Europe.
- 1:07:08They competed from Thursday
- 1:07:09through Saturday, like we just said.
- 1:07:14It is unclear if the
- 1:07:15individual schedule will be
- 1:07:16changed this year.
- 1:07:18Currently,
- 1:07:19each semifinal is scheduled from
- 1:07:20Friday through Sunday.
- 1:07:25And you can read that on the barbell spin.
- 1:07:29Interesting.
- 1:07:31who do a great job of breaking news.
- 1:07:35Always.
- 1:07:39Subscribe to their Instagram.
- 1:07:41That's even better.
- 1:07:42You get a push notification
- 1:07:44whenever something breaks
- 1:07:45so you can see it right away.
- 1:07:47I just was driving today.
- 1:07:52They can do three workouts both days.
- 1:07:56It's just when there's an
- 1:07:57overlap with the individuals and
- 1:08:01Just like, I mean, you wouldn't have to,
- 1:08:04it's just the equipment for
- 1:08:06the teams is so much more.
- 1:08:08That's the headache of the
- 1:08:09programming of the teams, right?
- 1:08:11At the worm,
- 1:08:12and then you got double or
- 1:08:14quadruple of everything.
- 1:08:17So hypothetically,
- 1:08:19say they say individuals
- 1:08:20are going two days, Saturday, Sunday.
- 1:08:23There's at least five events.
- 1:08:25There's no way there's not more than five.
- 1:08:26They're not going to do it
- 1:08:27in person with four events, right?
- 1:08:31So there's either like five or six to me.
- 1:08:35Well, yeah.
- 1:08:36And traditionally,
- 1:08:36there's always been six.
- 1:08:38Six.
- 1:08:41Do you think you can do less
- 1:08:43than six at semis and get
- 1:08:45the right people to the games?
- 1:08:47The right teams?
- 1:08:49Or if they hypothetically go
- 1:08:51Indies that way?
- 1:08:51No.
- 1:08:53No.
- 1:09:00I don't know.
- 1:09:02It's possible.
- 1:09:02Yeah,
- 1:09:04you can do a five test that's
- 1:09:05well-rounded.
- 1:09:07Yeah.
- 1:09:08You could.
- 1:09:10I just think more scores, like you're just,
- 1:09:12you're allowing for people
- 1:09:14to be a lot more balanced.
- 1:09:17And really show capacity in
- 1:09:19different things.
- 1:09:21Yeah.
- 1:09:23I think if you go less than six,
- 1:09:25you can't go monostructural.
- 1:09:29No.
- 1:09:30Personally.
- 1:09:31Yeah.
- 1:09:31You can't do like a single
- 1:09:33modality or like a
- 1:09:34specialist like workout and
- 1:09:35they need to be CrossFit style.
- 1:09:38Absolutely.
- 1:09:43So our plan tomorrow is to
- 1:09:46head to Grand Trunk where
- 1:09:48they have a 15 foot rope
- 1:09:51and a wall near it.
- 1:09:53Yeah.
- 1:09:53How is your gym layout?
- 1:09:55Did you do that one or no?
- 1:09:56Have you done the gymnastics one?
- 1:09:57Yeah, I haven't done it.
- 1:09:58How's your gym layout for it?
- 1:10:00I, my rope is 14 feet, six inches.
- 1:10:04So what do you do?
- 1:10:06I have to travel to someone
- 1:10:08else with them.
- 1:10:08And do you know if the rope
- 1:10:10is close to a wall,
- 1:10:11which is close to a rig?
- 1:10:12Like that, that one to me is,
- 1:10:14is dumb to program.
- 1:10:15I think if you're going to do a rope,
- 1:10:17which I don't think you should do online,
- 1:10:18because I don't think
- 1:10:19everyone has that height of ceilings.
- 1:10:21I really don't think it's inclusive.
- 1:10:23You don't program a rope climb with
- 1:10:30You program a rope climb
- 1:10:31with a barbell where you
- 1:10:32can place a barbell basically anywhere.
- 1:10:34You program a rope climb with running.
- 1:10:37Something that you don't
- 1:10:38have to have a physical...
- 1:10:40You could program with GHD
- 1:10:41because you could
- 1:10:42technically bring a GHD over.
- 1:10:44But something like a rig,
- 1:10:46a wall needed... People
- 1:10:49don't have a rope next to a rig,
- 1:10:52next to the rings.
- 1:10:53And I hate that the transitions...
- 1:10:57And the way that you have a
- 1:10:58layout of your gym is going
- 1:10:59to make a difference.
- 1:11:00I don't think that that's right.
- 1:11:02Agreed.
- 1:11:03I don't care that you can
- 1:11:03move your camera around or whatever.
- 1:11:05I don't like that.
- 1:11:07That's going to be a factor
- 1:11:08if there's a tie,
- 1:11:09but someone had a better
- 1:11:11just overall set up.
- 1:11:12It's like,
- 1:11:12that should not be a factor of
- 1:11:14an online competition.
- 1:11:15And people would say, Oh,
- 1:11:16we'll just go to another gym.
- 1:11:17And it's like, well, don't,
- 1:11:18not everyone has that.
- 1:11:21Like, I don't know.
- 1:11:24Yeah.
- 1:11:26I won't have a great layout.
- 1:11:29Like it just rings are not
- 1:11:30really next to the wall or the rope.
- 1:11:34And the rope is definitely
- 1:11:36not near the wall.
- 1:11:37And then where do you put
- 1:11:37your camera at that point?
- 1:11:39Now you do your rope with your,
- 1:11:42with your handstand pushups.
- 1:11:43Now all of a sudden you got
- 1:11:44to put your camera way back
- 1:11:45so that you can see the
- 1:11:46rope and then you can see
- 1:11:47your handstand pushups.
- 1:11:50Right.
- 1:11:51Remember the camera can move this.
- 1:11:53They want you to move the camera.
- 1:11:56no that's what they want but
- 1:12:01like what's going like
- 1:12:02what's going on you know
- 1:12:03like what like that should
- 1:12:05not be a thing like stop
- 1:12:06programming handstand
- 1:12:08push-ups with more than 25
- 1:12:10feet distances whether it's
- 1:12:12lunges handstand walks now
- 1:12:13a rope climb you got to
- 1:12:15tilt that camera even
- 1:12:16higher to try to get that
- 1:12:17roof what are you going to
- 1:12:20see from the handstand now
- 1:12:23Right.
- 1:12:23You're coming,
- 1:12:23you're going by other bar
- 1:12:24for the close to bars and
- 1:12:25the ring muscle ups are now far.
- 1:12:27The workouts are great.
- 1:12:30Just that one logistically
- 1:12:33is not good for most gyms.
- 1:12:37And people say, Oh, you have to get there,
- 1:12:39right?
- 1:12:39The good athletes need to get there.
- 1:12:41Cause it's a what 15 minute time cap,
- 1:12:43regular 25% probably won't
- 1:12:45make it to possibly even the rope.
- 1:12:48Right.
- 1:12:49So still though,
- 1:12:52I don't think that that part
- 1:12:53is well thought of.
- 1:12:54Yes, I am riffing.
- 1:12:57So I need to create an
- 1:12:58overlay that whenever any
- 1:13:00of us goes into a riff mode,
- 1:13:02that it just says riff
- 1:13:03alert at the bottom.
- 1:13:06I just don't like... I think
- 1:13:09it's a great workout.
- 1:13:12I just don't like that
- 1:13:13that's going to be where
- 1:13:14you have everything as a factor.
- 1:13:20Okay.
- 1:13:21They're not.
- 1:13:21What the heck?
- 1:13:23What's happening?
- 1:13:23I might have them muted.
- 1:13:25He's trying to do the
- 1:13:25soundboard like anything.
- 1:13:35Oh.
- 1:13:35It's an effect.
- 1:13:36Oh, shoot.
- 1:13:47Oh, here we go.
- 1:13:51It'd only take me six hours to do this.
- 1:13:52Nope.
- 1:13:54Yes, that one.
- 1:13:57That one.
- 1:13:59That's the rippler.
- 1:14:02So Aaron is commenting on the ropes.
- 1:14:06Crash had the same issue,
- 1:14:07but they touched the top of the beam.
- 1:14:09The rope was attached to get to the 15.
- 1:14:14And I had some comments about this here.
- 1:14:16You're muted.
- 1:14:21Sorry, I was having a bite of my pizza.
- 1:14:23I just think that like,
- 1:14:25like even the difference
- 1:14:26between having to reach and
- 1:14:27touch a beam and then you have,
- 1:14:29let's say the top of your
- 1:14:30rope is thick here because
- 1:14:32it's like attached.
- 1:14:35Like there's a huge
- 1:14:35difference in a rope climb
- 1:14:37just having to touch a tape line.
- 1:14:39Like when I go to Lex's gym in California,
- 1:14:41it's 20 foot ceilings.
- 1:14:42I can just go to the 15 foot.
- 1:14:45And I don't have to worry
- 1:14:46about a big knot or something at the top.
- 1:14:49I can just reach like mine at my gym.
- 1:14:52I got to go to a beam,
- 1:14:53like basically to the roof almost.
- 1:14:56And it's just like, there's a big,
- 1:14:58there's a black thingy that
- 1:14:59has like sharp little thingies.
- 1:15:01If I want to go any higher, hurt my hand.
- 1:15:03If I get there,
- 1:15:03which means I got to reach
- 1:15:05nice and high and it just changes stuff.
- 1:15:08Like I don't, I don't like that.
- 1:15:11That's a factor.
- 1:15:12Like it's a,
- 1:15:14I mean,
- 1:15:14I guess you could say the same with
- 1:15:15like ring muscle ups and
- 1:15:17short ropes and long straps
- 1:15:18or stuff like that.
- 1:15:19But these are factors in
- 1:15:21online competitions.
- 1:15:23Yeah.
- 1:15:25And the crowd goes,
- 1:15:35you got me started now.
- 1:15:38Yeah.
- 1:15:38I'm, I'm with you a little bit there,
- 1:15:40Carolyn.
- 1:15:40I don't, I don't like.
- 1:15:42that the setup will probably
- 1:15:44play a little bit of factor
- 1:15:46in some people's scores.
- 1:15:50Is it going to be a huge difference?
- 1:15:51I don't know.
- 1:15:52Like there's some,
- 1:15:53there's maybe in that transition,
- 1:15:54you're getting rest.
- 1:15:55Right.
- 1:15:56But I don't know.
- 1:15:58Well, I think,
- 1:15:59I think the rope and the rings,
- 1:16:05a lot of people chalked up
- 1:16:07pretty good during that time.
- 1:16:09So there,
- 1:16:10it did slow down the transition
- 1:16:12some degree.
- 1:16:13If you're chalking while you're walking,
- 1:16:14I think you can probably make that up,
- 1:16:18but it shouldn't come down to that.
- 1:16:21Right?
- 1:16:22No, it shouldn't.
- 1:16:24Um,
- 1:16:26But I do,
- 1:16:26I personally think that the rope
- 1:16:29at crash being hung the way
- 1:16:32it was and having touch above,
- 1:16:34because that's what I do.
- 1:16:36It's harder.
- 1:16:38And I think it affected maybe,
- 1:16:40maybe parse partially
- 1:16:43Colton's rope climb technique,
- 1:16:45but I maybe think he
- 1:16:46underestimated the way that
- 1:16:47that rope hung as well.
- 1:16:51He's not used to that.
- 1:16:52Of course.
- 1:16:53Exactly.
- 1:16:53Well, some have, like, the buckle that it,
- 1:16:56like, it'll pivot.
- 1:16:57And just to tie it to a beam
- 1:16:59is a completely different
- 1:17:01way that that rope's going to react.
- 1:17:03Like,
- 1:17:04I kind of think it got Dalen a little
- 1:17:05bit.
- 1:17:06Yeah.
- 1:17:09Maybe even Fi, like.
- 1:17:10Just trying to get foot grip.
- 1:17:12But Taylor works out there.
- 1:17:13But, I mean,
- 1:17:13Taylor was going to crash or
- 1:17:15smash that workout anyways.
- 1:17:17Yeah.
- 1:17:18Taylor was going to smash it.
- 1:17:20But, yes, he works out there.
- 1:17:21So, he knows how to handle that.
- 1:17:22Mm-hmm.
- 1:17:24And even, even Jason, like he works out.
- 1:17:29Jason's there too.
- 1:17:30They were crashed.
- 1:17:31That's where Jason works out all the time.
- 1:17:32Yeah.
- 1:17:33I forget.
- 1:17:33Yeah.
- 1:17:34Yeah.
- 1:17:35Yeah.
- 1:17:36Taylor's in Charlotte, Charlotte.
- 1:17:37Oh, so yeah.
- 1:17:38So I got the mixed up.
- 1:17:41Maybe home field rope.
- 1:17:46That's fast.
- 1:17:47I was trying to think of
- 1:17:48what would be top scores
- 1:17:51for guys and girls.
- 1:17:53Like at the very top.
- 1:17:54That's going to be hard.
- 1:17:55That's got to be a top score for Taylor.
- 1:17:57It's going to be.
- 1:17:58That's going to be a top.
- 1:18:00Yeah.
- 1:18:00I don't know.
- 1:18:00Maybe top 10.
- 1:18:01I don't, but I don't know.
- 1:18:02I have no idea.
- 1:18:04I think it's going to be a top 10.
- 1:18:06He's good.
- 1:18:08So wait,
- 1:18:08so who won the first one between them?
- 1:18:11It was Dallin that won the tiebreaker.
- 1:18:13They've done two.
- 1:18:14They did that one in the gymnastics.
- 1:18:16So they did the ones that
- 1:18:17are due on Monday.
- 1:18:19Yep.
- 1:18:20Interesting.
- 1:18:20Yeah.
- 1:18:21Because one was more leg,
- 1:18:24one was more upper body.
- 1:18:25Yeah.
- 1:18:26And just thought they'd be
- 1:18:29recovered better from those two.
- 1:18:31So they're not doing any re-dos.
- 1:18:33Tomorrow they're doing the
- 1:18:37interval workout.
- 1:18:38Yes.
- 1:18:39And then Saturday is the wall ball burpee.
- 1:18:42Yep.
- 1:18:46Their only redo really is a
- 1:18:48lift or gymnastics if they
- 1:18:53really didn't like the way.
- 1:18:56I mean,
- 1:18:56unless they do two on the Saturday.
- 1:19:00But I don't know what you'd
- 1:19:00want to do after that wall ball one,
- 1:19:03to be honest.
- 1:19:03Nothing.
- 1:19:04They're going to sell their souls there.
- 1:19:07You need a few rounds of cold plunge in.
- 1:19:10Yeah.
- 1:19:10Because that's a tough one.
- 1:19:16Like 150 burpee box jump overs?
- 1:19:21I can't believe that.
- 1:19:23Like having chunks of 50 has
- 1:19:25always been a lot.
- 1:19:27Having three chunks of 50s, I was like,
- 1:19:34they hate us.
- 1:19:36They hate us.
- 1:19:37That's just ignorant.
- 1:19:40that's so cruel like 75 wall
- 1:19:43ball 25 burpee back jump
- 1:19:45over three rounds yeah like
- 1:19:48that 300 reps but wall ball
- 1:19:5150 35 20 maybe you know a
- 1:19:54little sprint at the end
- 1:19:58but 50 my gosh member for a
- 1:20:02year look at you go thank you so much
- 1:20:08Anybody can join if you want
- 1:20:10to support the show and my
- 1:20:12trips to Michigan.
- 1:20:14Just hit that member button or join.
- 1:20:19I think it says join.
- 1:20:20Yeah, but like that one,
- 1:20:21you're not redoing that burpy one.
- 1:20:23Heck no.
- 1:20:25Like, I'm just surprised.
- 1:20:28Well,
- 1:20:28I guess if you're not going to redo it,
- 1:20:29then I guess you could put
- 1:20:30it to Saturday.
- 1:20:31Yeah.
- 1:20:34I think they all agreed
- 1:20:34they're not redoing it.
- 1:20:37That's the one they do not
- 1:20:38want to do again.
- 1:20:41Like the clean and jerk one.
- 1:20:42I'm sure like you could redo
- 1:20:45that one if you,
- 1:20:46if you like messed up somewhere,
- 1:20:47but I think we don't need
- 1:20:49to redo that one.
- 1:20:51I think,
- 1:20:51I think the one that people can
- 1:20:52maybe redo and really
- 1:20:54change a strategy would be
- 1:20:55like the gymnastics one for sure.
- 1:20:56If you,
- 1:20:57if you like blow up and you start
- 1:20:58missing your handstand
- 1:21:00pushups or your ring muscle
- 1:21:01ups like that,
- 1:21:03might want to do twice but
- 1:21:06most of them are pretty
- 1:21:09sucky so before we get out
- 1:21:14of here just a off-the-cuff
- 1:21:17question taylor has said
- 1:21:19that if he makes court
- 1:21:20semi-finals he's turning it
- 1:21:22down he said that now
- 1:21:25that's what he said it
- 1:21:26today a couple times
- 1:21:28I think he needs people to pay his trip.
- 1:21:30Do you think that that's
- 1:21:32truly what's going to happen?
- 1:21:34No way.
- 1:21:36I don't see why he wouldn't go.
- 1:21:37Why wouldn't he go?
- 1:21:39Knoxville to Charlotte is
- 1:21:40like three hours.
- 1:21:41Yeah.
- 1:21:44why wouldn't he go is he
- 1:21:45just like is it he's just
- 1:21:47scared to underperform
- 1:21:48there like why not go and
- 1:21:50test yourself who cares if
- 1:21:52you finish last who cares
- 1:21:53if you finish 20 this is my
- 1:21:56he's not fully recovered I
- 1:21:59get he's not performing
- 1:22:01maybe at a hundred percent
- 1:22:02of what he wants to be at
- 1:22:03but it's like who cares
- 1:22:06Here's my psychology read.
- 1:22:07In his mind, he's got nothing to lose.
- 1:22:11And he's doing these
- 1:22:12workouts because it was
- 1:22:14never his plan to go to semifinals.
- 1:22:18And there's no pressure on him at all.
- 1:22:20And in his mind, he's got to keep saying,
- 1:22:23I'm not going to semis to
- 1:22:25let it all hang out.
- 1:22:26Yeah.
- 1:22:28Then when the realization
- 1:22:30comes at the end and he
- 1:22:31doesn't have any more workouts to do,
- 1:22:34I think he'll come to his senses and say,
- 1:22:37I've got to give it a shot.
- 1:22:40Right?
- 1:22:41Because he was so close to
- 1:22:42the games prior to the knee, right?
- 1:22:43Like he was in the last chance qualifier.
- 1:22:45And the only reason he
- 1:22:46didn't was because they had a max lift,
- 1:22:47right?
- 1:22:48If I remember.
- 1:22:48A four rep deadlift.
- 1:22:49That like that four rep that
- 1:22:51looked out of like four or
- 1:22:52whatever workouts they had.
- 1:22:53Like that's a huge, I mean,
- 1:22:54that changes everything.
- 1:22:55It still blows me away that
- 1:22:57Christy qualified out of that.
- 1:22:59I know.
- 1:22:59Christy's strong.
- 1:23:01Yeah, she is.
- 1:23:02Yeah.
- 1:23:02That burpee workout saved her butt.
- 1:23:05She's so good.
- 1:23:05She's a top 10 athlete every
- 1:23:07year at the games.
- 1:23:08Every year.
- 1:23:10She's one of the most
- 1:23:11well-rounded athletes that
- 1:23:12we have in our sport.
- 1:23:14I'm not surprised at all.
- 1:23:16But that programming at
- 1:23:17Granite Games was awful that year.
- 1:23:19Yeah.
- 1:23:21It wasn't well-rounded.
- 1:23:23That's why she didn't get to
- 1:23:25shine like she normally
- 1:23:26does because there's no
- 1:23:27reason that Chrissy should
- 1:23:28ever have to go in the last
- 1:23:29chance qualifier.
- 1:23:30She's so good.
- 1:23:31Great.
- 1:23:32Yeah.
- 1:23:33Kenneth makes a great point.
- 1:23:34Taylor's about to win $1,000 minimum.
- 1:23:38That should pay for his way to semis.
- 1:23:40And right now he's actually winning.
- 1:23:41Yeah.
- 1:23:42He's winning the five grand
- 1:23:43after two events.
- 1:23:44Yeah, I saw that.
- 1:23:46They're getting $5,000 for the win.
- 1:23:47Only one person gets the money?
- 1:23:50No.
- 1:23:50They're getting $5,211.
- 1:23:51So at least everyone makes $1,000.
- 1:23:55What about me and the lame girl?
- 1:23:57That's what has me pissed off.
- 1:23:58$1,000.
- 1:23:58I bet they'll change that.
- 1:23:59I bet they don't.
- 1:24:00Really?
- 1:24:12In a year where it's the
- 1:24:14year of the women athlete, right?
- 1:24:18It is.
- 1:24:19It's the year of the women in sports.
- 1:24:20The women's tournament
- 1:24:21outrated the men's tournament.
- 1:24:25In a sport that's always been equal,
- 1:24:27this is how we're doing it?
- 1:24:29It's just not right.
- 1:24:31The thing is,
- 1:24:33there's very few women that
- 1:24:36would agree to do this.
- 1:24:38Yeah, we're all secretive.
- 1:24:39They're way too secretive.
- 1:24:41The men would jump at this opportunity.
- 1:24:44The women will not.
- 1:24:45And the fact that Fee is
- 1:24:46putting this out there, I think,
- 1:24:47deserves... Yeah.
- 1:24:50I think someone like Ariel
- 1:24:51would do it 100%, though.
- 1:24:53I do think Ariel would do it.
- 1:24:54Ariel would have done it.
- 1:24:56Safe to get in.
- 1:24:57Yeah.
- 1:24:59Like, Fee is safe to get in, too.
- 1:25:01I think someone that's just
- 1:25:01very confident that they're getting in,
- 1:25:03like, they're not worried, like...
- 1:25:05they're going to do this to
- 1:25:06help their grow their brand
- 1:25:08and stuff like that.
- 1:25:09Like, that's great.
- 1:25:10I think if you're an athlete
- 1:25:11that you're dependent on the workouts,
- 1:25:15like you're,
- 1:25:17you might not want to expose
- 1:25:19all of your workouts maybe and have,
- 1:25:21have people know or have
- 1:25:24something to chase.
- 1:25:24I don't know.
- 1:25:26Honestly,
- 1:25:27even of the women you would think
- 1:25:28would are a shoe in,
- 1:25:29I think there's several
- 1:25:30that would not agree to do this.
- 1:25:34People have said a few names
- 1:25:35that I don't think there's
- 1:25:37a chance they would do this.
- 1:25:38So let me ask you this.
- 1:25:41Colton said it,
- 1:25:42I think last night that
- 1:25:45after people have seen the
- 1:25:46success that these four are having,
- 1:25:50not just in the sport, but as a brand,
- 1:25:54all the stuff,
- 1:25:54the prize money that's going up now,
- 1:25:57more people want to do it.
- 1:25:59And he was like, you dorks, we were doing,
- 1:26:01we agreed to do this before
- 1:26:03there was money.
- 1:26:04And like you need to lay off,
- 1:26:07but a lot of people are
- 1:26:09going to see this.
- 1:26:10And a lot of people are
- 1:26:11going to see the success of this.
- 1:26:13And more of these types of
- 1:26:15things are going to happen.
- 1:26:17And I'm hoping to bring
- 1:26:18something like this,
- 1:26:19either in a master's
- 1:26:20division or something like that,
- 1:26:23where I was like, I was thinking today,
- 1:26:25wouldn't it be cool if we
- 1:26:26did like master's legends,
- 1:26:29Rudy burger versus Jason and,
- 1:26:32you know, someone programmed three events,
- 1:26:35you do it in the off season
- 1:26:37and like these can be done on a weekend,
- 1:26:41get some exposure for people.
- 1:26:42They're not hard to set up.
- 1:26:45Um, and,
- 1:26:46but I think even women are going
- 1:26:47to see the success of this and go,
- 1:26:50if I want my brand to grow,
- 1:26:51I'm going to have to do this.
- 1:26:55Yeah.
- 1:26:56I mean,
- 1:26:58And especially if you're
- 1:26:59like a semifinal athlete,
- 1:27:01like why not take the chance?
- 1:27:04I think it's a huge
- 1:27:06opportunity for this format
- 1:27:09to get the competitive
- 1:27:12spirit on the floor that Fee's getting,
- 1:27:15that the boys are getting.
- 1:27:18Yeah.
- 1:27:19Yeah.
- 1:27:19Like for that,
- 1:27:20like someone like Lindsay Lane,
- 1:27:21like this is great exposure, right?
- 1:27:23Like not everyone might know
- 1:27:25her from winning Crash,
- 1:27:26although a lot of people did watch
- 1:27:28crash crucial and stuff like
- 1:27:30that so but it's just
- 1:27:32giving her more exposure
- 1:27:33right and people are like
- 1:27:34oh like that's the girl I
- 1:27:36saw you know on the seven
- 1:27:38podcast and did this and
- 1:27:41just helping her and fees
- 1:27:42growing her brand right now
- 1:27:43too well and not only that
- 1:27:45it's competition experience
- 1:27:48live head-to-head
- 1:27:50competition experience yeah
- 1:27:55that you can't always get.
- 1:27:57And especially with all the
- 1:27:59big ones being invitation
- 1:28:01only for a lot of it,
- 1:28:04it's tough to go in the off
- 1:28:05season to get a big time competition.
- 1:28:08And what's impressive is like,
- 1:28:11Fee and Dallin and Taylor,
- 1:28:13let's say they're going to
- 1:28:15someone else's gym.
- 1:28:15Like you always want to do
- 1:28:16your open gyms in your, in your gym.
- 1:28:19Like that's, you know, your barbell,
- 1:28:20you know, your rig, you know, your space.
- 1:28:23But when you go to another gym,
- 1:28:24you're like, Oh,
- 1:28:25am I going to like the bar here?
- 1:28:26Like the fact that they're doing their,
- 1:28:28like their quarterfinal
- 1:28:29workout in an uncomfortable,
- 1:28:31and I'm assuming it's not
- 1:28:32uncomfortable environment at crash,
- 1:28:33but I'm just saying like,
- 1:28:34it's out of their comfort zone.
- 1:28:36Like that's, that's good experience.
- 1:28:39Yeah,
- 1:28:40because semis are going to be that way.
- 1:28:42So why not prep for it?
- 1:28:45Unless you have the HWP or
- 1:28:47proven setup that is the
- 1:28:49exact same rig and rope and
- 1:28:53everything as you get at
- 1:28:54semifinals when you have
- 1:28:58all the all the rogue stuff
- 1:29:00and perfectly prepped with
- 1:29:03the exact lanes and everything.
- 1:29:04It's like, oh,
- 1:29:06that's the advantage of certain camps.
- 1:29:09Yeah.
- 1:29:10True.
- 1:29:11But I, you know,
- 1:29:12kudos to Savon for putting
- 1:29:14this on because it gives us
- 1:29:17a chance to watch this.
- 1:29:19It is invariably the best
- 1:29:21programmed part of the
- 1:29:22season and we never, ever get to see it.
- 1:29:28And it's so cool that we get
- 1:29:30to see this stuff.
- 1:29:32And, you know,
- 1:29:33that's part of the reason I
- 1:29:34come up to Michigan.
- 1:29:35I get to hang out at Redemption,
- 1:29:36watch a bunch of people
- 1:29:37from all levels do this
- 1:29:39stuff this weekend and get
- 1:29:42to talk to them and see how it was.
- 1:29:44And it doesn't always just
- 1:29:46have to be a games athlete.
- 1:29:48Yeah.
- 1:29:54I started Fallout, Ken, two episodes in.
- 1:30:01Yeah,
- 1:30:01I knew there was something I was
- 1:30:02going to bring up for TV talk,
- 1:30:04and now I forgot.
- 1:30:04So I'm too into quarterfinals.
- 1:30:06It's just all CrossFit now.
- 1:30:08That's all we can watch.
- 1:30:09Yeah.
- 1:30:10But I did want to say to Carolyn,
- 1:30:12I was watching Pat McAfee the other day.
- 1:30:15And if people don't know,
- 1:30:17Pat McAfee is one of the
- 1:30:18reasons I even started this podcast.
- 1:30:20Like he's a Pittsburgh boy.
- 1:30:23And he was told no so many
- 1:30:25times about things.
- 1:30:26And he just started his own thing.
- 1:30:28And now he's the biggest
- 1:30:29name in sports media right now.
- 1:30:32But he had Caitlin Clark on Wednesday.
- 1:30:34I did see that.
- 1:30:37And they swapped some jerseys.
- 1:30:41Um,
- 1:30:41and she agreed to come on his show
- 1:30:44weekly moving forward.
- 1:30:48And he was giddy to have her.
- 1:30:52That is such a huge leap for
- 1:30:54women's sports.
- 1:30:55Yeah.
- 1:30:56Huge, huge.
- 1:30:58Did you also see Nike?
- 1:31:01I know that she's with Nike.
- 1:31:03They're going to do a
- 1:31:04signature shoe that's
- 1:31:06supposed to be like eight figures.
- 1:31:10Jeez.
- 1:31:12Where we've got to make a
- 1:31:14change is her salary.
- 1:31:18Everyone's salary in the WNBA,
- 1:31:21but her specific.
- 1:31:22I mean, yeah.
- 1:31:23A lot of those, especially like...
- 1:31:27those women's sports a lot
- 1:31:28of times are a build off of
- 1:31:29like experience.
- 1:31:30And it's like,
- 1:31:30you kind of earn your contract.
- 1:31:33I mean,
- 1:31:33I guess the NHL and other professionals,
- 1:31:35they have that too for rookies.
- 1:31:36Like look, look at Brock Purdy, right?
- 1:31:39He's still like on his
- 1:31:40rookie 800,000 contract.
- 1:31:42And I mean, San Francisco,
- 1:31:45San Francisco is not mad
- 1:31:46about that right now.
- 1:31:47It's just the same thing, but it's just,
- 1:31:50it's way less like it's what?
- 1:31:5175,000, 77,000 or something for her.
- 1:31:57All that is true.
- 1:31:59But the fact that the
- 1:32:00Indiana... I don't even know.
- 1:32:02Storm?
- 1:32:04Fever.
- 1:32:06Sold out.
- 1:32:07Season tickets.
- 1:32:10Insane.
- 1:32:11That alone should get her a raise.
- 1:32:14And now they have like 36
- 1:32:15out of like their 40 games
- 1:32:17or something are going to
- 1:32:18be nationally televised.
- 1:32:20A lot of their games,
- 1:32:21a lot of their away games,
- 1:32:22people have changed their
- 1:32:23venues to accommodate more seating.
- 1:32:26I like they're going to a
- 1:32:27bigger venue so that they can have a,
- 1:32:30you know,
- 1:32:30a bigger capacity to watch the games.
- 1:32:33I did see that.
- 1:32:35Yeah.
- 1:32:36She's I hope she doesn't get
- 1:32:37injured and she can really make a,
- 1:32:40make the WNBA matter and relevant.
- 1:32:44Yeah, I think it's just a matter of time.
- 1:32:47Um,
- 1:32:47it's growing through college and then
- 1:32:48it's just going to expand to the WNBA.
- 1:32:50It's a pure brand of basketball.
- 1:32:55And, and I, and admittedly,
- 1:32:58I didn't know that until
- 1:32:59Caitlin Clark showed me,
- 1:33:01but there's more than her.
- 1:33:02Like there's so many good
- 1:33:03ones that also entered the
- 1:33:04draft here and like,
- 1:33:06they're going to be fun to watch.
- 1:33:07And then there's still some
- 1:33:08good ones at college that
- 1:33:09are going to be fun to
- 1:33:10watch for the next few years.
- 1:33:11Well,
- 1:33:12Paige Buckets is still there and Juju.
- 1:33:13Yeah, Juju, yeah.
- 1:33:15I'm becoming a fan of the female.
- 1:33:17Yeah,
- 1:33:17but like it almost took a couple
- 1:33:20years to get, you know,
- 1:33:21last year was like you saw
- 1:33:23Caitlin Clark last year too,
- 1:33:25but like the Angel Reese
- 1:33:26and other players and then
- 1:33:28you start investing a little bit more.
- 1:33:30Last couple years it's been growing a lot.
- 1:33:32Well,
- 1:33:32and you look at the Chicago Sky who
- 1:33:34got Angel Reese and Cardona.
- 1:33:37Cardosa.
- 1:33:38Cardosa, is that it?
- 1:33:39Yeah.
- 1:33:39It came close.
- 1:33:40Yeah.
- 1:33:42I think that's going to be cool to watch.
- 1:33:46It'd be cool to be a fly on
- 1:33:47the wall in their practices.
- 1:33:53So how does that work?
- 1:33:55When you're a hockey player at Wisconsin,
- 1:33:58like you hate the Buckeyes,
- 1:34:00you hate the Spartans, you know,
- 1:34:03and then you go into a pro
- 1:34:04league and now you're
- 1:34:05playing with those people.
- 1:34:06Do you forget about the
- 1:34:07rivalry or is it more intense?
- 1:34:09You do,
- 1:34:10but then every time there's like
- 1:34:12your school is playing itself,
- 1:34:14you always have bets and stuff like that.
- 1:34:17And then you realize, oh,
- 1:34:19they're actually nice.
- 1:34:20And you actually become like
- 1:34:21best friends with them.
- 1:34:22You get over it really fast.
- 1:34:23Once you're on the same team, same goals,
- 1:34:25like everyone's got the
- 1:34:27same mindset to win.
- 1:34:29So you forget about it.
- 1:34:30It's just kind of more small bets.
- 1:34:33Like on the pregame walks,
- 1:34:35you might have to wear the
- 1:34:36opposing team's jerseys if
- 1:34:37you lost your bet.
- 1:34:39Fun stuff like that.
- 1:34:40Yeah.
- 1:34:41Yeah.
- 1:34:43So Amanda Brown says,
- 1:34:44regardless of prize money,
- 1:34:45Glinton things should get a
- 1:34:46shout out for stepping up
- 1:34:47for the ladies to have a prize at all.
- 1:34:49A hundred percent.
- 1:34:51Yeah.
- 1:34:52Good on you.
- 1:34:52Glinton.
- 1:34:53Thanks for putting that money up.
- 1:34:56Yeah.
- 1:34:56Cause they were,
- 1:34:56they were a last minute thing too.
- 1:34:58Right?
- 1:34:59Like they weren't like,
- 1:35:00it was only supposed to be
- 1:35:01Taylor and then they, they joined itself.
- 1:35:04Sort of.
- 1:35:04I mean,
- 1:35:05or no credit up to fee a while ago.
- 1:35:08And I see LDY commented above.
- 1:35:11like the money was brought on.
- 1:35:13That's not, not true at all.
- 1:35:14Like the boys had agreed to do it.
- 1:35:17Fiat agreed to do it.
- 1:35:18And Sarah Cox just put up
- 1:35:19the 5,000 the other night
- 1:35:21during the burpee thing.
- 1:35:23She was like,
- 1:35:24and I want to throw 5,000 at the thing.
- 1:35:26So this California peptides,
- 1:35:35but fee agreed a while ago.
- 1:35:38It's been a couple of weeks for sure.
- 1:35:40Yeah.
- 1:35:40Yes.
- 1:35:44And the shit is I've never
- 1:35:45been to a WNBA game,
- 1:35:47but I'm a new fan of the
- 1:35:50female game in the college,
- 1:35:51and I will check out the WNBA now.
- 1:35:54I really want a team to come to Toronto.
- 1:35:57They're, like, looking at expansion cities,
- 1:35:59and I'm like, come on,
- 1:36:00bring one to Toronto.
- 1:36:02I would love that.
- 1:36:04It's just hard for visa issues because,
- 1:36:07like,
- 1:36:08you start having a league in the States,
- 1:36:09and then you have internet.
- 1:36:10Like, there's just some border stuff,
- 1:36:12but bring it.
- 1:36:13Bring it.
- 1:36:15Yeah.
- 1:36:17All right.
- 1:36:19Well with that,
- 1:36:22We went long tonight.
- 1:36:24We'll probably hop on
- 1:36:25Saturday night after scores
- 1:36:26are submitted.
- 1:36:27Okay.
- 1:36:28And we can then talk about
- 1:36:29the first two because
- 1:36:32scores will already be in.
- 1:36:33And then we'll see if
- 1:36:35there's any other news that
- 1:36:36breaks over the weekend.
- 1:36:37Things we're going to look out for,
- 1:36:39Tia score submissions,
- 1:36:41Brooke score submissions.
- 1:36:43Are they healthy enough to
- 1:36:45get through those first two?
- 1:36:46I think so.
- 1:36:47Those are probably the two
- 1:36:48they could get through.
- 1:36:52We saw Brooke the other day
- 1:36:53post some ring muscle-ups.
- 1:36:56They look good.
- 1:36:56Yeah, I think she'll be fine.
- 1:36:59And all the gymnastics that
- 1:37:00would hurt her shoulder, I think,
- 1:37:01are all in one workout.
- 1:37:05Yes.
- 1:37:05You would know this more, right, Jamie?
- 1:37:07It would be just the rings
- 1:37:10and maybe the toaster bars of that one.
- 1:37:13Yeah.
- 1:37:13I think she's able to do
- 1:37:14everything like this.
- 1:37:15So to me, that's,
- 1:37:18that's good because if it
- 1:37:20was on multiple events,
- 1:37:21then it's kind of affecting
- 1:37:22you on a lot of scores,
- 1:37:23but it's one score.
- 1:37:24And Brooke is so fit that
- 1:37:27she's more than capable on
- 1:37:28the other three to smash
- 1:37:29and still do very well.
- 1:37:31I think looking at her ring
- 1:37:32must have looked like she was good to go.
- 1:37:34It looked fine.
- 1:37:35I think she'll be fine.
- 1:37:36Lifts.
- 1:37:37She said we're fine.
- 1:37:37So four, four is going to be fine for her.
- 1:37:41Well,
- 1:37:41balls and burpees are going to be
- 1:37:41totally fine for her.
- 1:37:44I don't see an issue with
- 1:37:44that 85 pound snatch or boxed up up.
- 1:37:47So I think she's fine.
- 1:37:48Yeah.
- 1:37:50I'm still going to be
- 1:37:51looking just to make sure.
- 1:37:54And I was also happy to see
- 1:37:55no double unders.
- 1:37:58I did send you a message.
- 1:38:00I know Scott messaged me right away.
- 1:38:02No double unders.
- 1:38:03I was like, yes.
- 1:38:04I was like going through a workout one.
- 1:38:05I'm like waiting to see a
- 1:38:06rope workout to wait to see a rope.
- 1:38:08Like, yes.
- 1:38:11All right, guys.
- 1:38:12Well,
- 1:38:12we will see you all probably Saturday
- 1:38:13night.
- 1:38:15If not before,
- 1:38:15I might pop on either an
- 1:38:17Instagram live or something like that.
- 1:38:19Who knows?
- 1:38:20With that,
- 1:38:20we'll see you all next time on
- 1:38:22Thursday night CrossFit Talk.
- 1:38:24Good luck to you.
- 1:38:25Thank you.
