- 0:43funny is before we went on

- 0:45about fondue and I as I as
- 0:49you were talking I was
- 0:50scrolling through instagram
- 0:51just to check for any last
- 0:52minute things fondue pot
- 0:55fondue pot that's freaky
- 0:58That is freaky.
- 0:59They're always listening.
- 1:05So, yes, Jody Lynn, go Bears.
- 1:09What a morning to wake up
- 1:11and get to watch your Bears
- 1:12pummel the Jacksonville
- 1:14Jaguars in London was awesome.
- 1:17And your rookie quarterback
- 1:19throw four touchdowns.
- 1:21And then at a fifth rushing,
- 1:24it was awesome.
- 1:26I,
- 1:27I've never had a team that could throw
- 1:28that well.
- 1:29So, um,
- 1:32I am just stoked with my NFL team
- 1:36and my college team,
- 1:37Penn state going out to USC,
- 1:39starting off really,
- 1:40really slow and then coming
- 1:42back and winning that game
- 1:43in overtime was awesome.
- 1:46And so I've had a really
- 1:47good football weekend.
- 1:49That's good.
- 1:50Yeah.
- 1:50We had a bi-week for Michigan state.
- 1:51So nothing there.
- 1:53Um, lines one, but man,
- 1:56I don't know if any of you
- 1:57caught that Aiden Hutchinson leg snap.
- 2:01Oof.
- 2:03Where's my girl Lana in the comments.
- 2:05I'm sure she was caught it.
- 2:08Yeah.
- 2:08I, uh,
- 2:12I saw on Instagram that
- 2:13Chase and his wife went to
- 2:14the Cowboy game,
- 2:16which was the Lions game as well.
- 2:18They picked a really bad
- 2:19week to go watch the Cowboys.
- 2:21Not great for them.
- 2:23No, not go Guardians kipping.
- 2:26Yeah, it was not great sports-wise for us.
- 2:30Tigers are out.
- 2:34I have been a Mets fan for a long time.
- 2:36Pirates fan number one,
- 2:37but they never do anything.
- 2:39So I've always liked the
- 2:40Mets because of Bobby
- 2:42Bonilla when he left the
- 2:43Pirates and went to the Mets.
- 2:44And my Mets,
- 2:47as I'm jumping on this bandwagon,
- 2:49are in the National League
- 2:50Division Championship.
- 2:53So super stoked.
- 2:57Um, but yeah, uh,
- 2:58Aiden Hutchinson is a big
- 2:59loss as a Bears fan.
- 3:02I am not sad that we may not
- 3:04have to see him this year.
- 3:06I bet.
- 3:09And I saw Eric Frazier say something about,
- 3:11yeah, it was against the Jags.
- 3:13True.
- 3:14But the Bears have never
- 3:16beat the teams they were
- 3:17supposed to beat.
- 3:19And we've done that so far this year.
- 3:20And I will take that and
- 3:22building confidence along the way.
- 3:25Everything is baby steps for us.
- 3:28It's been a long time since
- 3:29nineteen eighty five.
- 3:30Let's just say.
- 3:33Oh, we got Yankees.
- 3:34We got Dodgers.
- 3:36We got Mets.
- 3:36We got guardians.
- 3:38Dang.
- 3:41And Mets Dodgers start tonight.
- 3:43In fact,
- 3:43they've already started about an
- 3:44hour ago.
- 3:46So yeah.
- 3:50I wonder if Hiller is
- 3:52smiling or crying that his
- 3:54boy got in the game.
- 3:55Oh, Tyson got to play.
- 3:57Very little.
- 3:58Oh.
- 3:59He got the mop up,
- 4:00three kneel down at the end of the game.
- 4:02Okay.
- 4:02He has like six snaps for
- 4:04minus seven yards rushing
- 4:06because he takes the kneel
- 4:08down and gets minus one.
- 4:09Yeah.
- 4:10Every time.
- 4:11And they were giving him
- 4:12crap about it after the game today.
- 4:14But he's like, listen,
- 4:15as long as the team keeps winning,
- 4:20it's good stuff.
- 4:21So Hiller's a Bears fan,
- 4:23not just a Tyson fan.
- 4:24So he has to like the results.
- 4:29um but oh we just got a
- 4:34message from carolyn yeah
- 4:35carolyn uh said her

- 5:15So we're pretty, pretty close.
- 5:18So we went to the melting
- 5:20pot in Grand Rapids and
- 5:21it's basically like you get fondue,
- 5:24you get bowls in the center
- 5:25on a hot plate and fondues,
- 5:29like you pick your fondue, you pick your
- 5:32broth to cook in or a
- 5:33skillet and then you get
- 5:36chocolate fondue and stuff
- 5:37at the end for dessert.
- 5:38It was good.

- 6:48feeling carolyn
- 6:50Guys, I just had to switch hotel rooms.
- 6:53What?
- 6:55I found two cockroaches and
- 6:57I got the heck out of there.
- 6:59Oh my gosh.
- 7:00So I went to the front desk
- 7:01and I videoed and I was like,
- 7:04can I get another room?
- 7:05I'm like, I'm not staying here.
- 7:06So I just got put in this other room.
- 7:10So this all happened in the
- 7:11last ten minutes.
- 7:12I was trying to turn my
- 7:14computer on and then that
- 7:15wasn't working and I was like, ugh.
- 7:17But yeah.
- 7:19You look like you might be
- 7:21where I was last year.
- 7:24It's like one of the suites
- 7:26that has like the kitchen,
- 7:27like the fridge, cooktop, everything.
- 7:28Yep.
- 7:29I bet you're in the same hotel I was.
- 7:32There wasn't a whole lot of options.
- 7:33Yeah.
- 7:35Aaron Fraser says, welcome to the South.
- 7:37So hopefully all is good now.
- 7:39So like when I got in here,
- 7:40turn on all the lights,
- 7:41see if I could see anything.
- 7:42Yeah.
- 7:45But you were in the other
- 7:46room all weekend and then
- 7:47just saw them today.
- 7:48Yeah.
- 7:51I saw one this like really early morning.
- 7:56And then it was kind of like
- 7:58dead in the bathroom.
- 7:59I felt like maybe my
- 8:01athletic therapist may have
- 8:02stepped on it or something
- 8:03because it wasn't really moving.
- 8:04And I crunched it up.
- 8:05And then I went to the venue
- 8:10and I was gone basically
- 8:10like all day and then went back.
- 8:14I was like, okay, it was just one.
- 8:16Maybe it's okay.
- 8:17Like, well, you know,
- 8:20I got one more night.
- 8:20I leave at four a.m.
- 8:21Like, let's see.
- 8:24And then I'm like starting
- 8:25to pack up my stuff.
- 8:26I look on the roof, like on the ceiling.
- 8:28And I'm like, how's that thingy?
- 8:29And I saw it and I was like, nope.
- 8:32I packed up my stuff so fast
- 8:33and went to the front desk.
- 8:37Jodi Lynn says, what?
- 8:38You need another hotel.
- 8:41This one just already smells better.
- 8:42The other one smelled like
- 8:44it was like moist.
- 8:49So this one smells normal.
- 8:55Lynn actually says next time
- 8:56you need to do an Airbnb.
- 8:58But if you know Carolyn,
- 8:59she does everything on the
- 9:02cheap low down.
- 9:03She rents the U-Haul to drive around in.
- 9:09She has all the hacks for travel.
- 9:13Mm-hmm.
- 9:16All right.
- 9:16Well,
- 9:17we didn't anticipate you being here
- 9:18with tonight.
- 9:19I won't say too long because
- 9:22I have my flight at six a.m.
- 9:25and I got to leave here around four.
- 9:26Okay.
- 9:28So we'll just hit you up first.
- 9:31Don't forget to like and
- 9:32subscribe to the channel, first of all.
- 9:34But next,
- 9:36you were at Crash this weekend competing.
- 9:39First of all,
- 9:40just your first impressions
- 9:41of the event itself.
- 9:42Jamie was there last year.
- 9:45Here it is.
- 9:45It's, it's actually like,
- 9:47it's got a lot of big names in a,
- 9:49in gym competition,
- 9:51not at a facility or a big
- 9:54arena or anything like that.
- 9:56Just in a gym.
- 9:57What were your impressions
- 9:58of this competition?
- 10:00Big gym.
- 10:01It has like everything.
- 10:02So there was like a whole warm up area,
- 10:05like a little part of a warm up area.
- 10:07Then there was a cool down
- 10:08and athlete hangout zone
- 10:10that they had two ice tubs in there.
- 10:12They have a sauna.
- 10:13They put bikers and echo
- 10:15bikes in there then.
- 10:16they had a go-wod mats like
- 10:18six or seven of them with
- 10:20foam rollers so they were
- 10:21like hang out there to
- 10:22leave the warm-up area for
- 10:23the ones that are actually
- 10:24going um so good separation
- 10:26there and the way that they
- 10:29um they had their team just
- 10:32organizing the floors all
- 10:33weekend and moving things
- 10:34very quickly like they were
- 10:36so efficient and everything
- 10:37was on time so while it was
- 10:40like there's no like
- 10:40announcers and everything
- 10:41during um it was well run
- 10:46and very organized yeah from
- 10:49from the home like watching
- 10:51it on the stream I couldn't
- 10:53believe like how
- 10:54professional it looked the
- 10:55numbers on the floor the
- 10:57squares the lines look so
- 10:59professional um and
- 11:02everything seemed to be on
- 11:03time like at all times if
- 11:06they said this event was
- 11:07starting at this time and
- 11:08you turned on the stream
- 11:09that's what was going
- 11:11Yeah,
- 11:11like JR didn't take a heat off every
- 11:14single time.
- 11:15Like he'd be like two
- 11:15minutes and then be like ten seconds.
- 11:17And at the end of the workout,
- 11:20he'd say like the time.
- 11:21Yeah,
- 11:23like he was there for every single
- 11:26heat and making sure
- 11:27everyone knows their jobs.
- 11:31So if people didn't watch,
- 11:33there were a lot of big names there.
- 11:35Yeah.
- 11:37A lot of, like, a couple games, athletes,
- 11:39you and Caroline Stanley
- 11:41and Olivia Kerstetter, Kyra Milligan,
- 11:44and then a lot of semifinal athletes.
- 11:47Fee.
- 11:48Fee as well.
- 11:49Brittany Weiss is a champion
- 11:50as well of the team division.
- 11:52Correct.
- 11:54And a lot of semifinal athletes.
- 11:57Um,
- 11:58and really like what I love about crashes,
- 12:00they highlight the up and
- 12:01coming athletes that you
- 12:03may not have heard of and
- 12:04you could kind of get to
- 12:05see them doing really elite programming.
- 12:11So I heard you say in one of
- 12:13your interviews that you
- 12:14took a different approach
- 12:15this weekend that you
- 12:17really just wanted to push
- 12:19it all and see where your fitness was.
- 12:23And I told you as we were
- 12:25texting yesterday,
- 12:27it's the most confident I'd
- 12:28seen you up to that point.
- 12:31So can you walk us through
- 12:33why that was your goal for this weekend?
- 12:37And how did that feel?
- 12:40I think Lex always wants me
- 12:41to push it more.
- 12:43She hates when I rest all
- 12:44the time and she's like, like,
- 12:45you're looking fine.
- 12:46Like,
- 12:46just go like you're you're able to do
- 12:49these sets.
- 12:49So there was a few workouts
- 12:51that I felt I could attack.
- 12:55Notably, like number one, number three,
- 12:58number six, although number six,
- 13:00I didn't.
- 13:02I'll get back to that one after.
- 13:03Um, but the number one, number three,
- 13:06for sure.
- 13:06Like those are,
- 13:07those are good workouts for me,
- 13:08even though the dumbbell is
- 13:09pretty heavy on the first one.
- 13:12Um, I wanted to go all three rounds.
- 13:13I'm broken on the ring muscle ups,
- 13:16but it just took for me.
- 13:18Like if I'm going to get off the rings,
- 13:20my rest is so long.
- 13:22I would rather just push the
- 13:24tent and have that same
- 13:25rest and already be on the back end.
- 13:27Then just to rest the exact same amount.
- 13:30Um,
- 13:31So I just tried to push and
- 13:32see what happened.
- 13:36Yeah, that one went pretty good.
- 13:38It's interesting you say
- 13:41that because you would come
- 13:44off the rings and John and
- 13:45Bill were talking about how
- 13:46much rest you were taking
- 13:48and you were killing
- 13:50yourself by the rings, but you weren't.
- 13:52That was your plan was to
- 13:54instead of take your rest
- 13:55in the middle of your sets of rings,
- 13:57take it all on the back end.
- 14:00Yeah,
- 14:00I was trying to slow down my heart
- 14:01rate on the snatches so
- 14:03that like I would finish my
- 14:04ten ring muscle ups,
- 14:06slow down my heart rate and do singles.
- 14:07Like I went singles the whole way.
- 14:09And I did singles on the
- 14:11dumbbells in my practice run as well.
- 14:13Like there was nothing about
- 14:14me at any point was like,
- 14:16I think I'm going to go
- 14:17touch and go on any of these.
- 14:18I was like, no, no.
- 14:21So I was like,
- 14:22just calm down your
- 14:23breathing during the
- 14:23singles so that you can
- 14:24attack your strength in the workout,
- 14:26which is the ring muscle-ups.
- 14:29I wish I hung up,
- 14:31like I came down at five
- 14:33for the rings on the third set,
- 14:35and that was a mistake.
- 14:36That's what cost me, I believe,
- 14:38the win of that workout.
- 14:40It took me about a minute to do the rest,
- 14:41and if I had done six or
- 14:43seven instead of going down at five,
- 14:45I knew that was two sets.
- 14:47The moment I went down at five,
- 14:49it's hard to repeat five.
- 14:50Like having a smaller number to do,
- 14:53I can rest a little bit and
- 14:54then attack that.
- 14:55But because I did it in three sets instead,
- 14:58like I just messed myself up there.
- 15:00And that was two very,
- 15:02very long breaks versus one break,
- 15:07which makes a big difference.
- 15:10you were in heat,
- 15:12you were in the second of
- 15:13the fastest heats or
- 15:14whatever seated in the second heat.
- 15:16So you weren't with what was
- 15:19perceived to be the top heat.
- 15:21Do you think that affected
- 15:22you in how you did it?
- 15:24Or would you have done it
- 15:24the exact same way?
- 15:27Or do you,
- 15:27would you have needed the race
- 15:29with who ended up winning that one?
- 15:31Olivia?
- 15:34No, no, no, no, no.
- 15:36She caught a Caroline Stanley, then Kyra,
- 15:39then me.
- 15:41Stanley.
- 15:42Okay.
- 15:43You took second.
- 15:45I took second in the chest of our one.
- 15:47Okay.
- 15:49Caroline Stanley won caramillion too.
- 15:51Yep.
- 15:52Yeah.
- 15:52Um, I mean,
- 15:55it would have been nice to race
- 15:56against them for sure.
- 15:57It would have brought me
- 15:58back to the rings.
- 15:59I think more on like more in
- 16:01a position that was
- 16:02uncomfortable because at this,
- 16:04like when I was on the rings,
- 16:05like I didn't have as much of a push.
- 16:06Lydia was starting to come back.
- 16:08on my left side.
- 16:09So then I was like, okay, you gotta go.
- 16:11Um, for the most part,
- 16:14I thought that even though
- 16:15I was in the second to the last heat,
- 16:17most of the weekend,
- 16:19I always seem to have a
- 16:20fast heat for like the
- 16:21workouts that I was in
- 16:23besides maybe that one where I was ahead.
- 16:26Um, most of the time,
- 16:27the heat that I was in had
- 16:30specialists of that workout.
- 16:34Yeah, I noticed that.
- 16:36And we'll get into that in a second.
- 16:38But so then the second event
- 16:43was the midline sadness.
- 16:47how did that one because you
- 16:48fell back a little bit on
- 16:49that one and then recovered
- 16:51for for three but fifteenth
- 16:53isn't terrible I was okay
- 16:55with that one I felt like I
- 16:56executed fine my heat was
- 16:58so fast um we've gone to
- 17:00the point now where we're
- 17:02racing handstand walking
- 17:04whereas like I'm good on my
- 17:05hands I can do the
- 17:06obstacles I can do all that
- 17:07but I'm not fast on my
- 17:08hands and those girls were
- 17:11just faster there
- 17:14And the GHDs with a med ball,
- 17:16I hate that movement.
- 17:18It fires up my lower back.
- 17:20Like it hurts my lower back
- 17:22to do it with the med ball.
- 17:26Regular GHDs are fine,
- 17:28but the med ball just does
- 17:29something to my lower back.
- 17:31Like I finished that workout
- 17:32and I couldn't even do any
- 17:33extension of like no cat dogs.
- 17:35Like it was just like, oh boy.
- 17:38But I was happy with that one.
- 17:40I felt like I did
- 17:41essentially what I expected up until it
- 17:44Yeah.
- 17:44So like the first two events, I was like,
- 17:46okay, yeah, that's fine.
- 17:49And then the,
- 17:50the third event you literally
- 17:52like the broadcast was in
- 17:55shock at how fast you went
- 17:57out and could you hold on?
- 18:01That one is that that's the
- 18:02most frustrating one of the
- 18:03weekend for me.
- 18:05I love chest of our pull-ups,
- 18:08love chest of our pull-ups
- 18:09and I like thrusters and I,
- 18:11That was a good workout for me.
- 18:12Um, yeah, I don't, I, my chest to bars,
- 18:17they just felt way harder than normal.
- 18:20Um, got lost in my account a little bit.
- 18:23The girl kept counting, not as,
- 18:24as not as my chest was touching, but as,
- 18:26as on the way down.
- 18:28So like the first set I did,
- 18:29where I was like,
- 18:30I was planning to do and then
- 18:35Yeah.
- 18:35As soon as I got to the thirty one,
- 18:36I was like, hmm,
- 18:38don't feel good right now.
- 18:42But I tried to hold on as much as I can,
- 18:46as much as I could and
- 18:48recover on the lunges.
- 18:49And then even even though I
- 18:51was like trying to like put
- 18:52a hand down and relax,
- 18:53when I got to the second
- 18:55set of chest of bars, I was like,
- 18:57these are tough.
- 18:58And I was resting so much in
- 19:01between every single set.
- 19:02Like I think I went fifteen, fifteen.
- 19:06Eleven nine or something like that.
- 19:08But with a couple no reps
- 19:10and the rest that I was
- 19:12taking in between was just not not good.
- 19:14Like if Lex was there.
- 19:15Oh, my gosh,
- 19:17I would have had it like get on the bar.
- 19:21Everyone was taking long rest,
- 19:23like everyone barring like
- 19:25three or four people was
- 19:27taking exceptionally long rest.
- 19:29I thought Taylor took much
- 19:31longer rest than I would
- 19:32have expected him to take
- 19:33in that workout.
- 19:35Well,
- 19:35what was crazy to me is you opened up
- 19:37with a bigger set than anybody else.
- 19:39So even though you were
- 19:40taking these long rests,
- 19:42you were jumping up just as
- 19:43they were catching you.
- 19:45So they never really got ahead of you.
- 19:47Yeah.
- 19:50And then, you know, the bride has like,
- 19:52well, she's lost it.
- 19:53She's done.
- 19:54And then you picked up the
- 19:55pill and it was like... I
- 19:57wish I went on broke in there.
- 19:58Like I broke at the thirty, but...
- 20:01We had a long rest before the next one.
- 20:03I knew the next ones weren't
- 20:04going to be great for me,
- 20:05especially number five.
- 20:06So I should have just tried
- 20:08to push the fifty there.
- 20:12Is that where you think you
- 20:13could have made it to first?
- 20:15Yeah.
- 20:17By going unbroken on the last thirty.
- 20:19About thirty seconds.
- 20:20There and a little bit of
- 20:21rest on the chest of ours.
- 20:23It's an easy thirty seconds.
- 20:25but still was happy with
- 20:26that execution overall.
- 20:29Scented and maybe a little
- 20:31bit too much on the other
- 20:33side of the red line, but not much.
- 20:35Like it was like I blew up,
- 20:37but still was in control of
- 20:42where I was in the race.
- 20:44And I had numbers in my head
- 20:45of the previous heats and
- 20:47stuff like that.
- 20:47So.
- 20:50You and I were texting was
- 20:51right after this event and you had,
- 20:53you had gotten into first place,
- 20:55but you knew the next two
- 20:56events were not really your jam.
- 21:00And you were just trying to
- 21:01get through those two to get the Sunday.
- 21:07So number four, the strict handstand one,
- 21:11um,
- 21:13I rested a lot there too,
- 21:14but I think that one went pretty good.
- 21:17I think it was a top ten.
- 21:20I probably didn't need to
- 21:22break as much as I did.
- 21:23I was conservative,
- 21:25but it's that fine line
- 21:27with those strict deficit
- 21:28that sometimes it's almost
- 21:30better to feel like you
- 21:31could have done more
- 21:32because if you push a little bit more,
- 21:33then they're gone.
- 21:34Did you do sets of three throughout?
- 21:39What's that?
- 21:40Did you do sets of three throughout?
- 21:42So I went four, two, three, two, one,
- 21:45three, three, four, two, I believe.
- 21:50I felt like the last one I
- 21:52should have done six.
- 21:54The three, two, one,
- 21:55maybe could have done a four,
- 21:57two there as well.
- 21:59The sled was a little bit
- 22:00heavier than I thought, awkward.
- 22:03It was fine at first.
- 22:04And then the last length I
- 22:07tried to catch up to Lydia
- 22:10and then blew my quads and
- 22:14my calves so much that like
- 22:16I had to put them on the
- 22:18sled for like a minute it
- 22:20was I was like laying down
- 22:21trying to like elevate them
- 22:22and then I got up and
- 22:23walked towards my biker and
- 22:25I like calf was cramped uh
- 22:28legs were heavy and I'm like oh
- 22:32Oh no.
- 22:32What did I just do?
- 22:33Like, because with the P score,
- 22:35you don't need to push to
- 22:37the finish line to get that
- 22:38because you're going to get
- 22:39the same points.
- 22:41Like even if she beats me by
- 22:42a little bit and I'm right behind her,
- 22:44like that's not losing that many points.
- 22:47It was like one or two points on.
- 22:49And the effort that I needed
- 22:51to do that was not worth it.
- 22:55Um, so then I,
- 22:57I tried to cycle my legs in that rest,
- 22:59like on a, like on a one,
- 23:01but then it was like, it was bad.
- 23:03Yeah.
- 23:03We saw you doing that.
- 23:04Did you find that the sled
- 23:05was like purely legs?
- 23:07Did it,
- 23:08did it blow up your shoulders at
- 23:09all or biceps holding, holding it?
- 23:11I felt fine.
- 23:12I was trying to lean more into like,
- 23:13in like my chest area,
- 23:15I was trying to lean that
- 23:16in and I was holding, but not as much.
- 23:18Like I was making sure that.
- 23:20the chest was taking a lot
- 23:22of it versus the arms.
- 23:24I felt it more in the legs.
- 23:25And then as soon as you flip it,
- 23:26it just kind of spikes your heart rate.
- 23:28And then trying to go upside
- 23:30down right after that is
- 23:31difficult when it's not
- 23:32your best movement, right?
- 23:34So it's just kind of like,
- 23:35I would hunch over,
- 23:36try to control my breathing.
- 23:37And it's like, okay, now go.
- 23:39Yeah,
- 23:40just anytime you do some sort of like,
- 23:42it's like, as soon as you're done,
- 23:43heart rate goes up.
- 23:45What I liked about that sled
- 23:46push is it seemed to be the
- 23:49most universal version for
- 23:52everyone of any sled push I've seen.
- 23:56Like there was no way of like cheating,
- 23:58like going low or going
- 24:00outside or because you had
- 24:02to hold that top bar.
- 24:04like everybody was in the
- 24:05same position nobody got
- 24:07like you could go to the
- 24:09side as long as you held
- 24:10the top bar like it does
- 24:11wrap around you could but
- 24:14most people chose to go
- 24:15here or some people were
- 24:16going um like this the like
- 24:19uh like a supinated yeah I
- 24:24didn't do that one but it
- 24:25didn't seem to give anybody an advantage
- 24:28no and like the angle I
- 24:30don't know if like being
- 24:32shorter helps and or
- 24:34because you maybe the angle of your push
- 24:36It seemed like the shorter
- 24:38people had a better go at it.
- 24:39I feel like the angle,
- 24:41unless you like kept it down,
- 24:43which I think would have
- 24:43blown up your biceps more.
- 24:45Yeah.
- 24:45All people.
- 24:47I mean, I,
- 24:47you could notice it more in the men,
- 24:49like the shorter men,
- 24:51I feel like had a little smoother route.
- 24:54And then Lindsay,
- 24:56I feel like Lindsay pushed
- 24:56it the best for the women,
- 24:58but she has one there to practice.
- 24:59So yeah.
- 25:04Yeah.
- 25:04It helps.
- 25:04Yeah.
- 25:05If you can get touches on
- 25:06that regularly with your
- 25:08classes or with training, like it's,
- 25:10it's a big advantage.
- 25:11Yep.
- 25:16Okay.
- 25:16So then you go into the,
- 25:18what we knew was going to
- 25:19be the double under workout.
- 25:24So we don't have to talk about that.
- 25:26We'll just move on.
- 25:27It's hard because it's
- 25:28paired with such a low skill movement,
- 25:30like a bike.
- 25:32that there's just there's no
- 25:34hiding like there's no
- 25:35there's no making that up
- 25:38everyone can bike and
- 25:39everyone in the field but
- 25:40me can double under so it's
- 25:42just like you're just out
- 25:45there and like if it's
- 25:46paired with ring muscle ups
- 25:47or something that's high
- 25:48skill that is my strength I
- 25:51can close the gap a little bit
- 25:55But one,
- 25:55like two of my biggest weaknesses
- 25:58for the past years,
- 25:59which has prevented me from
- 26:01qualifying is power output on a machine,
- 26:06double unders.
- 26:09And they're both there in
- 26:09the same workout.
- 26:10It was like, shit.
- 26:13Like I got negative four points on that.
- 26:15I was like, wow.
- 26:17Like I could have just sat
- 26:18down and just chilled.
- 26:22it was so defeating to go
- 26:25from like first place to
- 26:26tenth place and I was like
- 26:27yeah not very good it was
- 26:34crazy how tight the scores
- 26:35were though when I looked
- 26:38this morning I was shocked
- 26:39at like how tight they were
- 26:41before you guys started and
- 26:43then you started out with
- 26:44Mad Moon so how did that go
- 26:52To me, it was a running workout.
- 26:53The deadlift was irrelevant.
- 26:55I should have pushed the burpees more.
- 26:58I have very good burpees and
- 26:59I don't know why I didn't
- 27:01push more knowing that the
- 27:03deadlift wasn't going to do
- 27:04anything for me.
- 27:06I could have not done the step on,
- 27:09step back,
- 27:10come down and done more of like
- 27:12what Fi did and push the
- 27:14burpees because she's got
- 27:15really good burpees.
- 27:16Um, and then just do as I can on the run.
- 27:20Um,
- 27:21But I think it was a
- 27:22different workout for the
- 27:23girls as it is for the guys.
- 27:24The deadlift on the guys was much,
- 27:26much heavier.
- 27:28And not as many guys were unbroken.
- 27:31But I think the burpees
- 27:33played a big factor and I
- 27:34just didn't push it there enough.
- 27:38I saw some comments about
- 27:40that and that is a
- 27:41reoccurring thing that we
- 27:43continue to see and it
- 27:45grinds my gears is that
- 27:46people continue to say that
- 27:47the stuff isn't heavy enough.
- 27:49And I mean, if you look at the scores,
- 27:54I don't even think it was
- 27:54that much of a different workout.
- 27:56Like something like twenty
- 27:58people of women finished
- 28:00and something like twenty men finished.
- 28:02It was very, very similar.
- 28:05The run most the guys will be faster.
- 28:08Um, well that, that's why,
- 28:10but that's why he put it lighter.
- 28:12Right.
- 28:12But a lot of people were
- 28:13complaining and being like,
- 28:14this needs to be heavier.
- 28:15If it would have been heavier,
- 28:17you would have had ten
- 28:18girls finish and it would
- 28:19have been a joke of a workout.
- 28:21I just don't think there was
- 28:22anything that was that
- 28:23heavy on the weekend
- 28:24besides a seventy pound dumbbell.
- 28:26And, like, if you look at the top,
- 28:28what's that?
- 28:28That was freaking heavy.
- 28:31Yeah, yeah, that's heavy,
- 28:31the seven-pound dumbbell.
- 28:33But I'm saying, like, other than that,
- 28:34like, if you look at, like,
- 28:36who did well in that workout, like,
- 28:37they're not the strongest
- 28:38people on the field.
- 28:42And it's, like,
- 28:43you still need to have a
- 28:46little bit of a stop for some of it, like,
- 28:51for those gymnasts or cardio athletes.
- 28:56type athletes like there's
- 28:57some strength for sure but
- 29:00you could add just a little
- 29:02bit it could have been a
- 29:02squawk clean even or
- 29:03something like that but I
- 29:04guess we've already done
- 29:05thrusters but um yeah so I
- 29:13I didn't see the last
- 29:14workout because I was
- 29:16driving back from
- 29:17pittsburgh um thick and thin
- 29:22So it's two different types
- 29:23of rope climbs.
- 29:24One was legless on a thinner rope.
- 29:26The other one was a regular
- 29:27rope climb on a thicker rope.
- 29:29Then you had two barbell movements,
- 29:32one on a regular barbell,
- 29:33one on a thick barbell.
- 29:38Yeah.
- 29:40Going in,
- 29:40I didn't think it was going to be as bad.
- 29:43I did it.
- 29:45I tested this one prior and
- 29:46I was like low fours.
- 29:49I don't have the best legless, but...
- 29:52I don't know what happened today.
- 29:54I was warming up.
- 29:54I did half a legless and my,
- 29:56my arms were blown up.
- 29:57And I was like,
- 29:58looking at my athletic trainer.
- 29:59I was like, Oh no.
- 30:00I was like, I don't know.
- 30:02I can't even feel my forms right now.
- 30:03Like I was like in the warmup, you know,
- 30:05sometimes you go on a rope and it's like,
- 30:07you're pulling,
- 30:07but you're kind of falling down.
- 30:10Like, that's how I felt.
- 30:10And I was like, I was slipping.
- 30:12I was like,
- 30:14had nothing nothing nothing
- 30:16nothing um so I didn't even
- 30:19warm up I was like I can't
- 30:21warm up a single a single
- 30:23pull because I'm already
- 30:24like my I don't know my
- 30:25forearms were just fatigued
- 30:28I'm not sure I mean maybe
- 30:30from the pulling from the
- 30:31prior day with the chest of
- 30:32ours the deadlifts I don't
- 30:34know but I just
- 30:37A strict pulling is also not
- 30:38a very good strength of mine as well.
- 30:41I'm good at kipping gymnastics.
- 30:45So I was very, very,
- 30:45very slow with those four.
- 30:48The barbell was unbroken.
- 30:50The thick rope was thick.
- 30:53It's thick.
- 30:55But I felt fine there.
- 30:57I just ran out of time
- 30:58because of my legless,
- 31:02which was probably the
- 31:03worst in the field today.
- 31:06normally it's like it's okay
- 31:09um yeah I just felt like I
- 31:10was slipping on the rope
- 31:11like I don't know I was
- 31:12just working harder than I
- 31:15wanted to so overall you
- 31:19know you said you're trying
- 31:20something new coming into
- 31:21this competition let me
- 31:23just go grab there's
- 31:24something going on with my
- 31:25battery hold on one second
- 31:28give me two seconds here okay
- 31:32um while she's doing that
- 31:33I'm gonna talk about the
- 31:35broadcast did you watch
- 31:36some of it jamie yep I
- 31:38watched it all uh thoughts
- 31:39on the broadcast um I liked
- 31:43it I maybe we got spoiled
- 31:46last year and I understand
- 31:48the apprehension to be on
- 31:51air all day um but I feel like people are
- 31:57People are hungering for
- 31:58this coverage and at least
- 32:03have a camera on the other
- 32:04heats so that we can see what happened.
- 32:10No coverage of the Masters.
- 32:13Stevie Dellinger freaking crushed it.
- 32:16Like had some really
- 32:18incredible performances that like,
- 32:20I would have liked to seen
- 32:21her seeing that workout and
- 32:23then seeing the first heat
- 32:24of women go and see the difference there.
- 32:27Um,
- 32:28I wish there would have been a camera
- 32:29on the screen like they do
- 32:31for Kel Taylor.
- 32:32That was like, if they could have,
- 32:34somebody could have just
- 32:35ran that and they could
- 32:36have kept quiet for four of the heats.
- 32:39I would have been ecstatic
- 32:41just watching that.
- 32:42watching the workout and seeing a time.
- 32:46And then if you wanted to
- 32:46talk over heat five and six, cool.
- 32:49Um,
- 32:50but I feel like they needed the cameras
- 32:52rolling.
- 32:52Like they're there.
- 32:53The cameras are up.
- 32:54Just let it run.
- 32:56So that's probably my only drawback.
- 32:59I've become so attached to
- 33:00these masters athletes and
- 33:01there were so many good ones there.
- 33:03Um,
- 33:04I was bummed that I didn't get to watch
- 33:05them.
- 33:06Yeah.
- 33:07Um,
- 33:08Yeah,
- 33:08that would make sense just to have a
- 33:10rolling camera with like,
- 33:11you could just see everyone
- 33:12with the natural noise of
- 33:13whatever's happening out there.
- 33:15And then you can just watch
- 33:16it as a viewer.
- 33:17And that would make sense.
- 33:20Yeah, I didn't know that.
- 33:21That's my only negative of what they did.
- 33:24The quality definitely
- 33:26improved from last year.
- 33:29And Patrick Clark said it
- 33:30very well in the chat.
- 33:32They don't have a truck out
- 33:33there with their own
- 33:35dedicated Wi-Fi and their
- 33:36own... You know what I mean?
- 33:37Oh, sure.
- 33:38It's not going to be...
- 33:41quality,
- 33:42but it was really damn good for a
- 33:46couple of guys walking
- 33:47around with cameras and a
- 33:48couple of still cameras.
- 33:49Um, for the most part,
- 33:51it only got choppy at times, um,
- 33:53way better than last year.
- 33:55And, um, and the bill Grundler,
- 33:58John young team, I have to admit,
- 34:02I kind of enjoyed and it,
- 34:05and it's not like,
- 34:06I would not sit here and
- 34:07say that if you looked at
- 34:08them as like professional announcers and
- 34:11like they would not be what
- 34:13you consider your traditional set,
- 34:17but I enjoyed the
- 34:18enthusiasm that John Young
- 34:20brought to the table,
- 34:22the screaming at the athletes,
- 34:24like pick up that bar,
- 34:26like that gets you into it.
- 34:28And, and we don't have to be, you know,
- 34:31Bob Costas and whoever, right.
- 34:35And John Smoltz or whatever,
- 34:37or Ron Darling, um,
- 34:40we can have fun with this.
- 34:41I mean, that's what this is about.
- 34:43It's an off season competition.
- 34:46And I thought it was freaking awesome.
- 34:48I thought the first day they,
- 34:51Bill was trying to be a
- 34:52little bit traditional and
- 34:53like have his spots.
- 34:55And John just blew by those
- 34:57stop signs here and there.
- 34:59And, but by day two, Bill figured it out.
- 35:03And,
- 35:03and I think it came across really well.
- 35:07So kudos to them.
- 35:09Yeah.
- 35:10I mean, yeah, I don't want to complain.
- 35:12Like any coverage is appreciated for sure.
- 35:17They can.
- 35:18There most certainly was
- 35:19stationary cameras.
- 35:22It would have been over by
- 35:24basically the scoring table.
- 35:25So if you saw on the finish
- 35:26where they're seeing,
- 35:27that's basically where it was.
- 35:28You could always tell that
- 35:30sixth lane wasn't quite in
- 35:32it because it was just
- 35:33sitting where it was.
- 35:34But again, it was enough to see the floor.
- 35:36And if it just stayed there and sat there,
- 35:41everyone that watched would have watched.
- 35:43They had an elevated camera too,
- 35:45but they used some in the first day.
- 35:47I didn't see it later on in the weekend,
- 35:50but it had like almost,
- 35:52almost an aerial type view
- 35:54down onto the floor,
- 35:55which was kind of cool too.
- 35:57I think it was the same
- 35:58camera they had out for the deadlift run.
- 36:01Cause you could, it was,
- 36:02it was like the exact same floor view.
- 36:04Okay.
- 36:06Well, day one, they had two different air.
- 36:08They had one that was at an
- 36:10angle and they had one that
- 36:11was straight on.
- 36:13But the straight-on one was higher.
- 36:18So, yeah.
- 36:20Well, back to Carolyn.
- 36:23So you came into this
- 36:23weekend with a plan to try something new.
- 36:27Overall,
- 36:29do you feel like you learned
- 36:31enough from this weekend?
- 36:33Yeah.
- 36:37I feel like I was happy with
- 36:39five out of the six events
- 36:40or five out of the seven events,
- 36:42just not the legless and
- 36:43the double unders,
- 36:44everything else like I'm happy with.
- 36:48I proved to myself that I
- 36:49can still compete with all
- 36:51of those girls that are, you know,
- 36:53either up and coming
- 36:54current games athletes on a
- 36:58lot of the workouts, but I just have,
- 37:02holes that are very big right now still.
- 37:06And back then you could have
- 37:07holes like that and qualify
- 37:09to the games and you just can't anymore.
- 37:13So I just got to get back
- 37:15down to the drawing board
- 37:17and try and see what I can
- 37:19do to fix these power
- 37:21output and strict
- 37:23gymnastics and double unders holes.
- 37:27Well, next year you'll be masters, right?
- 37:29So you can compete in the
- 37:31masters category.
- 37:32That's what Lex said after the weekend.
- 37:34Um, I mean,
- 37:37and have you looked at where
- 37:38your times would have
- 37:39fallen like against Stevie?
- 37:42She had some crazy performances.
- 37:45I don't, I don't even know who she is.
- 37:48Um,
- 37:50I saw that name after day one.
- 37:51I was like, who is this person?
- 37:53And Mackenzie and Haley both did awesome.
- 37:56And I kind of expected
- 37:58Mackenzie beat Haley at the games.
- 38:00Kind of how it shook out.
- 38:01But man, this Stevie, holy smokes.
- 38:06yeah yeah I don't know who
- 38:08she is either and like I
- 38:11kind of pride myself on
- 38:12knowing I know like the
- 38:13semi-final level masters
- 38:16athletes and yeah I got to
- 38:19do some research yeah she
- 38:21deserves some coverage for
- 38:23sure yeah uh so yeah um
- 38:29Overall,
- 38:30just to report out on the women's side,
- 38:31the podium was Brittany Weiss in first,
- 38:34Fisa Goffey in second,
- 38:35Lydia Fish in third.
- 38:36I'm so happy for her.
- 38:38On the...
- 38:41male side it was honest to
- 38:44god it was these three had
- 38:45broke apart the bad thing
- 38:47about p scoring is it just
- 38:49made this not even a race
- 38:51right almost after the
- 38:53first four of it three or
- 38:54four events like I thought
- 38:56the women's field was much
- 38:58much deeper than the men's
- 38:59field like the men's field
- 39:00was very top heavy but the
- 39:05what we're thinking is
- 39:07So just to name them, Colton took first,
- 39:09Taylor Self took second,
- 39:11Chris Ibarra took third.
- 39:13Kind of what everybody picked anyway.
- 39:16But what is going on with Dick Matthew?
- 39:20Man, it's almost like a shoulder.
- 39:23There's something going on.
- 39:24Like he didn't look right in
- 39:25the dumbbell snatches.
- 39:29And it seemed to be all
- 39:30shoulder workouts that if
- 39:32you look at his scores that
- 39:34are like questionable.
- 39:36And the rest he did fine on.
- 39:38When I talked to him,
- 39:39he said that he felt very
- 39:40fit going into the weekend.
- 39:42So I don't think he had any injury.
- 39:45Yeah.
- 39:48it just it's shocking to me
- 39:50I was happy for max krieg
- 39:51um we've been following him
- 39:53for a couple years in the
- 39:54semi-final stuff taking
- 39:56fourth was really cool in
- 39:57this field um you know some
- 40:00of the other names that
- 40:01we've talked to uh matthias
- 40:03porter drake lewis jacob
- 40:05marlow tanner balazs seeing
- 40:07all these guys get to
- 40:08compete was cool but you're right
- 40:10The women's field was way
- 40:11deeper this year than last year.
- 40:14Just closer.
- 40:15There was a lot more up and down.
- 40:16The men's field was more
- 40:17like those top three were just the top.
- 40:19There was not much changing
- 40:23in and out there.
- 40:25Like us, you'd see Olivia first, boom,
- 40:27down.
- 40:28It was just like flip-flopping.
- 40:30So I don't know if you heard
- 40:32the broadcast or you heard from someone.
- 40:35Colton did an interview recently.
- 40:37where he kind of got upset
- 40:40about like Chris Ibarra
- 40:43saying that he wasn't
- 40:44peaked or he wasn't in game
- 40:46shape and he had taken time
- 40:48off and Colton's response
- 40:50was or in the interview he
- 40:52said quit quit putting us
- 40:56down because we're winning
- 40:59or taking this away from us
- 41:01by saying you're not in the
- 41:02shape you need to be
- 41:05if you show up,
- 41:06then you lace up the shoes and you go,
- 41:09you know, I'm like,
- 41:11I'm tired of these excuses.
- 41:14And after he put it in the, in those words,
- 41:16I was like, he's right.
- 41:17Like all it's doing is
- 41:19taking away from the people
- 41:20that are winning.
- 41:21You're trying to take shine
- 41:22away from them by saying you would be,
- 41:25but you're not in this shape.
- 41:30I don't know if it takes away from them,
- 41:32but I think like if he did
- 41:34take time off after the games,
- 41:35like I think he's allowed
- 41:37to still say that he's not at his peak.
- 41:40If he if he decided that he
- 41:42wanted to take time off to the games,
- 41:43he still signed up for the competition.
- 41:45And when you sign up for a competition,
- 41:47you still need to be you know,
- 41:48you do your best of where
- 41:50you are right now in your season.
- 41:52I don't think it takes away
- 41:53necessarily from the other two teams.
- 41:56but it's just kind of
- 41:57acknowledging where he's at
- 41:59in his season.
- 41:59And like Colton doesn't
- 42:00really take that off season.
- 42:01Like he's ready to go whenever.
- 42:03And that's just two different approaches.
- 42:05So if Chris wants to take
- 42:06time off after the games, like,
- 42:10I feel like you need to
- 42:11frame that differently when you say that,
- 42:13whether it's like a, Hey,
- 42:16I don't know what the other guys did.
- 42:18I took like nine weeks off.
- 42:19I don't feel a hundred percent.
- 42:21I don't know if I would even
- 42:22be able to stay with them if I was,
- 42:24but so like props to them,
- 42:26they're killing it.
- 42:27I just don't feel like myself right now.
- 42:29Like,
- 42:29I think you need to like really think
- 42:31about the way you say that
- 42:32before you're just like, well,
- 42:34I'm not a hundred percent so that you are,
- 42:35you are essentially saying
- 42:37I would be with you if I
- 42:37was a hundred percent.
- 42:42Right.
- 42:43And the other thing we have to factor in,
- 42:45and Lynn kind of says this,
- 42:46but I'm going to phrase it
- 42:47in a different way,
- 42:48is that Colton is looking for that chip.
- 42:51Oh, yeah.
- 42:53Whatever chip he can find to
- 42:55put up on the shoulder to
- 42:57make him train harder,
- 42:58to make him go faster,
- 43:00he's going to put there.
- 43:03And that's what motivates him,
- 43:04and that's what gets him going,
- 43:06and that's why he goes to
- 43:08places other athletes don't go at times.
- 43:12because he has a reason to
- 43:14overcome whatever chip that is.
- 43:18You know,
- 43:19when you watch Michael Jordan in
- 43:20the last dance,
- 43:22Michael Jordan made up
- 43:23stories in his mind to give
- 43:26him like a reason to go out
- 43:28and have a vendetta against a team.
- 43:34And I,
- 43:34and I think Colton's getting really
- 43:36good at it.
- 43:39but I think you also have to
- 43:40control it and maybe last
- 43:42year at semis he needed to
- 43:47be a little more strategic
- 43:51instead of just going all
- 43:53in on everything if that
- 43:55makes sense yeah I mean I
- 44:01feel like like thing is
- 44:02with colton he like
- 44:03literally is the best in
- 44:05the world at certain things and oh yeah
- 44:09It's, it's hard to not like, I mean,
- 44:11it's good for him that he
- 44:12trusts himself and he knows
- 44:13the things he's going to
- 44:14have home runs at.
- 44:15And like, he's confident,
- 44:16like you need that.
- 44:18Like, um, I don't know.
- 44:23It's like Bill said on the broadcast,
- 44:25can Colton go unbroken on this?
- 44:29But yes, yes, he can.
- 44:31But should he like,
- 44:33there's a bigger picture to
- 44:34this than just that one event, right?
- 44:40And I think that was put,
- 44:42Bill put that very well.
- 44:44Yes,
- 44:45we all know Colton could pick up that
- 44:47pill and do fifty unbroken thrusters.
- 44:50But is that what's best for
- 44:51him for the weekend?
- 44:54And Colton actually said he
- 44:55heard Bill say that and
- 44:57broke on the thrusters.
- 44:59I know.
- 45:00Smart.
- 45:04So,
- 45:05I thought that was an interesting part
- 45:06of the weekend as well.
- 45:09So I love Crash.
- 45:12I love that they broadcast it.
- 45:13It gives us something to
- 45:14watch that's exciting.
- 45:16I love the intimate part of it.
- 45:18The six and five person
- 45:20lanes make watching
- 45:22CrossFit so much nicer.
- 45:23Oh, yeah.
- 45:25Like it is so easy to watch.
- 45:29And I hope people take note of that.
- 45:34Yeah.
- 45:34Like I like the small heats.
- 45:36Um, and just like,
- 45:38it was just way more intimate for a comp.
- 45:40Yeah.
- 45:43Easier for like people just to,
- 45:45to watch that you're in, like,
- 45:47it's not jam packed in
- 45:48there where you can't see
- 45:49what's going on.
- 45:49Like people are moving around.
- 45:51Like it's, it's not as formal, I guess,
- 45:55but it's still so well organized.
- 45:59Patrick Clark, great job, Carolyn.
- 46:00It was a very tough competition,
- 46:02and you showed your
- 46:03signature grit and determination.
- 46:05And my signature double-unders.
- 46:06Thanks, Patrick.
- 46:14You know, I'm an unapologized Bears fan.
- 46:18All year,
- 46:18they've been talking about Caleb
- 46:19Williams being so hard on himself.
- 46:21Like, he threw an interception today,
- 46:23but he threw four touchdowns.
- 46:25And all he's talking about
- 46:26is the one interception he threw.
- 46:28And you remind me of him,
- 46:30like an elite athlete has like,
- 46:33they forget about the four
- 46:34good touchdowns and it's
- 46:36just about how do they get
- 46:37better at the one interception.
- 46:40And for you,
- 46:41I was great on all these events,
- 46:43but my double under still suck.
- 46:44And my light list.
- 46:50So the rest is fine.
- 46:55Yeah.
- 46:55Will you go back to crash Jamie?
- 47:00I don't know.
- 47:01Um, it just,
- 47:05I just feel like not
- 47:09showcasing those athletes
- 47:11that paid the money to be there.
- 47:13And, um, that sucks.
- 47:16Like, and maybe we got spoiled last year.
- 47:17I don't know.
- 47:18I just, I don't know.
- 47:23Well,
- 47:23the other thing for a master's athlete,
- 47:25there's only one division, right?
- 47:28Yeah, I don't care about – I mean,
- 47:29that doesn't bother me.
- 47:30Well, I'm not saying just you, but, like,
- 47:33if you're a Masters athlete, like Katie,
- 47:39Kat, Curry.
- 47:40Curry, yeah.
- 47:43Like, she's in your age group,
- 47:45but yet she's competing
- 47:46against thirty-five-year-olds.
- 47:47Right.
- 47:48Right?
- 47:49Yeah.
- 47:50That's tough as you get older and older.
- 47:53Yeah.
- 47:53Mm-hmm.
- 47:54Mm-hmm.
- 48:00I'm just saying.
- 48:02And I don't.
- 48:03There are anomalies to that.
- 48:06I mean,
- 48:06Sam Briggs didn't care how old
- 48:08anybody was.
- 48:08She was going to do what she did, right?
- 48:12Right.
- 48:12Amy didn't care for like the
- 48:14whole first year I knew her.
- 48:17I want to take on the twenty
- 48:18three year old.
- 48:18Yeah.
- 48:21But that's not everybody.
- 48:22I don't.
- 48:24I don't love the P scoring.
- 48:27Me neither.
- 48:28Especially for the masters.
- 48:30Too small of a field.
- 48:31Yes.
- 48:32So if you're, if you want to like,
- 48:34if you want to like put the master,
- 48:36I almost feel like this is
- 48:37how it needs to happen to
- 48:38like get the masters there is like,
- 48:40they need to just be in
- 48:42with everybody and seated
- 48:44as they like Stevie maybe
- 48:46would have been in the
- 48:48second to last heat.
- 48:49Right.
- 48:49Like, um, and, and then,
- 48:52and in the leaderboard,
- 48:53but then just put like
- 48:55their points pulled over.
- 48:57Does that make sense?
- 48:59Like if,
- 48:59if Stevie got points for the last
- 49:03workout and Kate got points
- 49:05for the last workout,
- 49:06that would have moved over
- 49:07to the leaderboard to their
- 49:08own leaderboard.
- 49:09And I don't know,
- 49:10like maybe it messes up
- 49:11your guys's leaderboard too much.
- 49:13I don't know,
- 49:13but nine women with P scoring is silly.
- 49:18Yeah.
- 49:20It's hard.
- 49:21Yeah.
- 49:21We talked about that last
- 49:22year that it was just,
- 49:26it throws everything off.
- 49:27Like one event changes everything.
- 49:30Yeah.
- 49:32And last year was more like one hitters.
- 49:36So like it literally, like,
- 49:37like you were saying,
- 49:38like the double under was with the bike.
- 49:41Well,
- 49:41like I didn't even get that last year.
- 49:44Like I didn't even get a
- 49:45second movement with the handstand walk.
- 49:47It was just go handstand walk period.
- 49:49Just go do a thruster period.
- 49:51Like at least you had like
- 49:53multiple movements this year.
- 49:55Yeah, there was no single modality.
- 49:58Was there any single one?
- 49:59No.
- 49:59No,
- 49:59you had no single modalities this year.
- 50:05And that probably affected P
- 50:06scoring a lot as well.
- 50:09I didn't mind the P scoring
- 50:10as much this year in the elite division.
- 50:12And I think more people understand it now.
- 50:14So they're, they're playing to it in the,
- 50:17in the field, the masters.
- 50:19It just does not make sense.
- 50:20Well, so big, so early.
- 50:23Yeah.
- 50:24And Tyler said,
- 50:25and I think they've all
- 50:26like realized this and
- 50:27maybe this is why like it
- 50:28needs to only be done at
- 50:29crash or where somebody realizes,
- 50:31but like the programming
- 50:33definitely matters for P
- 50:34scoring and you have to
- 50:36have well-rounded events, right?
- 50:40Especially when you have
- 50:40high skill movements,
- 50:41you have those specialists.
- 50:43Yes.
- 50:44That just pull that P score
- 50:46towards one side.
- 50:47Right.
- 50:47And there are a lot of like specialty,
- 50:54like high skill stuff that
- 50:55normally like JR would like the program.
- 50:57Yeah.
- 51:01Patrick's comment here is like spot on.
- 51:04With P-Score, it's performance-based,
- 51:06so you need to show performances.
- 51:08There's no context on
- 51:09performance when you just
- 51:10show two heats and only
- 51:12talk about Taylor Colen or whoever.
- 51:14Like, exactly right.
- 51:15That's what I felt like I
- 51:16was missing with the broadcast.
- 51:19Like,
- 51:19you weren't even sure what – at the time,
- 51:21you weren't sure what the
- 51:22time to beat was, who had it.
- 51:25Yeah.
- 51:26Well, even if they say the time to beat,
- 51:27it has no context.
- 51:29Like, where did they make up their time?
- 51:32Where did they –
- 51:33Cause when I tuned in to
- 51:34watch Carolyn do three,
- 51:36Brittany and we didn't see Brittany.
- 51:40We got to see,
- 51:41I got to see the end of Brittany.
- 51:42Yes.
- 51:43I got to see the end of Brittany.
- 51:45So I didn't know like what
- 51:47she did to get to that point.
- 51:49Right.
- 51:51So when Carolyn's going, I don't know,
- 51:52did she go out too hot?
- 51:53Is she going out hotter than Brittany?
- 51:55Is she like, for me watching it,
- 51:57I had no clue.
- 52:00what Carolyn's performance
- 52:01was against Brittany
- 52:03because I didn't get to see
- 52:04all of Brittany.
- 52:06It's just hard to know how
- 52:08much it's going to get
- 52:09pulled right on one side.
- 52:10And like, you think about certain workouts,
- 52:13like let's call, like, let's say that one,
- 52:16right?
- 52:17So you have Brittany and I
- 52:19like around the ten minute
- 52:21and a half high tens.
- 52:22And then there's some people at eighteen,
- 52:24which is like a big or like
- 52:25a big difference there.
- 52:27And then you get
- 52:28into some of the workouts
- 52:29that were very close on the time cap.
- 52:31And a lot of people are
- 52:33within thirty seconds to
- 52:34finishing the workout.
- 52:35And some people are getting
- 52:35time cap and like that little part,
- 52:38like you can get destroyed.
- 52:39But some people can be
- 52:40minutes behind on it.
- 52:41Like I understand the median stuff,
- 52:44but just sometimes like like.
- 52:46I don't know.
- 52:49So, Ernie,
- 52:49the only the only thing I would
- 52:50disagree with on this is
- 52:52last year with less they
- 52:54showed everything.
- 52:55Right.
- 52:56I think it,
- 52:58they looked back at last year saying, man,
- 53:00that was a long day because
- 53:02Jr never stops.
- 53:05Right.
- 53:06And I get it.
- 53:07Like it's not fair for bill and,
- 53:09and John young to go all day comments.
- 53:13There's other ways to go around,
- 53:14get around that.
- 53:15So we can just watch or have,
- 53:18or give someone else a shot to,
- 53:21to broadcast.
- 53:23Right.
- 53:24And,
- 53:26they do that they used to do
- 53:28that back in the day with
- 53:29like the games the early
- 53:30heats would be called by
- 53:32one set of announcers the
- 53:34prime heats were called by
- 53:35sean and chase or sean and
- 53:37bill right um and then that
- 53:40gives somebody a shot at
- 53:41like showing what they can
- 53:43do hone in some skills yeah
- 53:46everyone like there's
- 53:47people in the place in the
- 53:48space that need it so like yeah
- 53:52Yeah, but honestly,
- 53:53just a live stream would
- 53:54have been more than adequate this year,
- 53:56like not asking them to put
- 53:58in any extra work.
- 54:00The cameras were set up, just run it.
- 54:03People would've been thrilled.
- 54:06Yeah.
- 54:09But,
- 54:10but if you go back and watch last
- 54:12year's like Savan was
- 54:13falling asleep at the mic.
- 54:15He was.
- 54:17And so I think that was too
- 54:19much for them last year.
- 54:20And when they agreed to do
- 54:21it again this year, it was,
- 54:22we're not doing every heat,
- 54:24but there it's, it's like with anything,
- 54:26the pendulums on one side,
- 54:28it swings all the way over
- 54:29here on year two.
- 54:31Maybe it swings back to the
- 54:32middle and we get something better.
- 54:35Better.
- 54:41No dig on the broadcast.
- 54:42It was unique,
- 54:43but there are some simple
- 54:44solutions to make it happen.
- 54:46Wasn't a fair showing of
- 54:47what crashes and what it has become.
- 54:50Correct.
- 54:51I agree.
- 54:52And I, it just, the depth there,
- 54:55everything just needed to
- 54:56be highlighted just to touch more.
- 54:58I mean, we missed out on some,
- 55:00probably some big stories,
- 55:02some people getting their
- 55:03name out there again.
- 55:04Like we don't know who this
- 55:05Stevie Dillinger is like, that's sad.
- 55:07It's like, I'd like to know where,
- 55:09you know,
- 55:09I'd like to know something about her.
- 55:12A lot of people choose to go
- 55:13to a competition like crash
- 55:15to get some sort of exposure.
- 55:17Right.
- 55:17So for the masters or for those, um,
- 55:20Starting heats to not have
- 55:22any of that exposure
- 55:25doesn't allow them to grow
- 55:26their athletic brand,
- 55:28I guess you could say.
- 55:31Well,
- 55:31part of the reason you guys pay the
- 55:32entry fee is for a shot at
- 55:34exposure or a shot at prize money.
- 55:37Right.
- 55:38One of one of those you want
- 55:40to benefit out of it or or
- 55:41you're just trying to get
- 55:42more competition.
- 55:44Right.
- 55:44Yeah.
- 55:45Right.
- 55:46Experience.
- 55:46So, yeah,
- 55:49we just have to remember that
- 55:50people if you want it to
- 55:52keep growing with with the
- 55:54people that are coming,
- 55:56then you need to make sure
- 55:57they get the exposure
- 55:58they're looking for.
- 56:02It was very complex.
- 56:03Like I said, it was well,
- 56:04like on time athletes.
- 56:08The athletes are super nice as well.
- 56:09Got to meet athletes that I
- 56:12didn't know before and just
- 56:14see them on a different,
- 56:15like personal level.
- 56:17Because the heats are small,
- 56:19you get to talk to more
- 56:20people and there's less
- 56:22pressure than semifinals.
- 56:24So it just was more amusing that part.
- 56:27Yeah.
- 56:27Yeah.
- 56:30Well, Chris did a great job.
- 56:32We're going to move on.
- 56:34I have a couple quick
- 56:35hitters to kind of do,
- 56:37and then we'll go for the evening.
- 56:38And if, Carolyn, you need to go,
- 56:40just let us know because I
- 56:41know you have an early sleep.
- 56:42I just put my alarm for three fifty.
- 56:48Yeah, just let us know.
- 56:50Just wave, and then we'll say goodbye.
- 56:54But very proud of you.
- 56:55Like I said,
- 56:56you look as confident as I've
- 56:57seen you in a long time,
- 56:59and I think that hopefully
- 57:01this is just the start of
- 57:02some new stuff for you,
- 57:04and can't wait to see what
- 57:05your season looks like next year.
- 57:09So Rogue, we did get an announcement.
- 57:11It was announced this year.
- 57:12Barbell Spin this week.
- 57:14Barbell Spin announced that
- 57:15Roman Kurnikoff and Alexis, or Lexa,
- 57:19oh my gosh.
- 57:19Alexis Raptus.
- 57:20Alexis Raptus.
- 57:21I have been on the road too long today.
- 57:23Alexis Raptus are
- 57:25withdrawing from the Rogue Invitational.
- 57:28They are being replaced by
- 57:29Saxon Pancheck and Danny Spiegel.
- 57:33and uh I'm a big saxon
- 57:35pancheck fan as everybody
- 57:37knows and so super stoked
- 57:39that uh uh super stoked
- 57:42that he gets an opportunity
- 57:43to go to scotland yeah yeah
- 57:49um patrick clark has a
- 57:51question carolyn which
- 57:52up-and-coming athlete were
- 57:54you most impressed by a crash
- 58:05I thought Sanders had a good weekend.
- 58:06I thought Hannah Hardy had a
- 58:08good weekend before she got injured.
- 58:10But she's been around for a long time.
- 58:14Wish Hart's always consistent.
- 58:19There was just a lot of
- 58:20really good athletes there.
- 58:23I didn't get to see as much
- 58:25of the earlier heats
- 58:26because I was warming up.
- 58:28So I'd just kind of peak a
- 58:29little bit and then go.
- 58:32But I mean...
- 58:35I won't say I'm surprised by Lydia Fish.
- 58:37I don't know if I would say
- 58:39that I was impressed
- 58:42because I knew she was good.
- 58:48And Weiss,
- 58:48I saw her last year at NorCal
- 58:50when she competed.
- 58:52So her and Wishart were
- 58:53there last year and Wishart
- 58:56was again there this year winning it.
- 58:58So I've seen those two girls win NorCal.
- 59:01So to see Weiss win this one,
- 59:04I wasn't surprised.
- 59:08With the workouts that were there as well.
- 59:10And knowing like their,
- 59:11their skills and certain stuff.
- 59:13Like it like that.
- 59:15Those are some of the names
- 59:15that we called beforehand.
- 59:18Ernie Garza says, Carolyn,
- 59:19you really did kill it.
- 59:20And considering we're the same age,
- 59:22it lights a fire under me
- 59:23to not let these kids have
- 59:24an easy time beating me.
- 59:29Yeah.
- 59:29I mean,
- 59:30I'm two months away from being a master.
- 59:34Less than two months.
- 59:37So on from Rogue,
- 59:38I'm going to skip over the
- 59:40next one for now.
- 59:42It also was reported by
- 59:43Barbell Spin that Jamie
- 59:44McGarva tested positive.
- 59:47Masters athlete in the fifty
- 59:49to fifty four year old
- 59:51division tested positive
- 59:54for metabolites of GW five
- 59:58oh one five one six.
- 1:00:00The famous and whatever it is,
- 1:00:04performance enhancing drug
- 1:00:05during an in competition contest.
- 1:00:08What's that?
- 1:00:09Is it a SARM?
- 1:00:11I don't think it's a SARM.
- 1:00:13I think it's... I don't know
- 1:00:14the differences.
- 1:00:15I don't want to dive.
- 1:00:16It's got a specific name, right?
- 1:00:19It does.
- 1:00:22Yeah, the GW one.
- 1:00:23It's got a specific name, right?
- 1:00:24I don't know.
- 1:00:27it's a type of,
- 1:00:29it's a type of performance
- 1:00:30enhancing drug.
- 1:00:31And I just don't remember what it is.
- 1:00:34Endurable.
- 1:00:36Endurable.
- 1:00:36It's not for endurance or
- 1:00:37something or recovery.
- 1:00:38Yeah.
- 1:00:40Um, but, uh,
- 1:00:42I think when people called
- 1:00:43it a SARM before Hiller called it,
- 1:00:44said they were wrong.
- 1:00:45When I was researching,
- 1:00:46because the guy that we
- 1:00:47interviewed two years ago
- 1:00:50got busted for the same thing.
- 1:00:52But I can't remember what
- 1:00:55the specific lay name is
- 1:00:57for it or the classification.
- 1:00:59I think it is endurable.
- 1:00:59Something like that.
- 1:01:06So anyway,
- 1:01:06Jamie McGarvis got a four-year
- 1:01:08sentence of suspension.
- 1:01:11He finished second place in
- 1:01:13the fifty to
- 1:01:13fifty-four-year-old division.
- 1:01:15So with that, somewhat ironically,
- 1:01:18Sean Romero moves up to second place,
- 1:01:21who just came off his
- 1:01:22four-year suspension.
- 1:01:24And Joel Hughes,
- 1:01:27friend of the show and
- 1:01:30Ariel Lowen's former training partner,
- 1:01:33moves up to third place.
- 1:01:37He's the only one that has
- 1:01:38popped according to.
- 1:01:42Yeah.
- 1:01:43That's the only one.
- 1:01:44Yeah.
- 1:01:44I could keep some secret.
- 1:01:46Like if the athlete doesn't out themselves,
- 1:01:49like in there in the appeal process,
- 1:01:51it could take a while to hear.
- 1:01:55Like this was announced by
- 1:01:56Barbara Smith with someone
- 1:01:57else who had outed themselves.
- 1:01:59And we talked about a month prior.
- 1:02:01Gotcha.
- 1:02:03But that was a test at a
- 1:02:04different competition.
- 1:02:05Yeah.
- 1:02:08So, um, but they do test at the masters.
- 1:02:14They test down to five.
- 1:02:15Um, yeah,
- 1:02:20all hockey players drink out of those,
- 1:02:22right?
- 1:02:22Just easy.
- 1:02:25You just squeeze, right?
- 1:02:26Squeeze.
- 1:02:27I'll put my mouth on it now.
- 1:02:32um so yeah so first pop of
- 1:02:35the masters crossfit games
- 1:02:37um but it does show that
- 1:02:38they do test and they
- 1:02:40tested the top five yeah so
- 1:02:46yeah I mean I don't think
- 1:02:47that that's all we will
- 1:02:49should get but it seems
- 1:02:51like there'd be more I
- 1:02:52don't know we'll see um
- 1:02:58Tomorrow, at twelve thirty,
- 1:02:59we'll be releasing episode
- 1:03:01six of the behind the
- 1:03:03scenes of the CrossFit Games,
- 1:03:05Masters CrossFit Games.
- 1:03:07And I have a trailer.
- 1:03:08It's about two minutes.
- 1:03:11So I'm going to play that real quick.
- 1:03:12I only coach really strong
- 1:03:25people in CrossFit.
- 1:03:29Like Claudia's definitely
- 1:03:30like the strongest out here.
- 1:03:32So she's gonna crush the fun squad today?
- 1:03:38And the snatch.
- 1:03:38And the snatch.
- 1:03:42I'm just gonna crush everything.
- 1:03:43How are you feeling today?
- 1:03:44Pretty good actually.
- 1:03:48Slept pretty good yesterday.
- 1:03:49Which was nice.
- 1:03:50How much warm up goes into
- 1:03:51this morning just to get ready?
- 1:03:53You just like get everything out,
- 1:03:57get everything opened up.
- 1:04:00And you start with the chipper?
- 1:04:02Yeah, the little one.
- 1:04:05How do you think that'll go for you?
- 1:04:09I tested it out and the
- 1:04:12second set of ball balls hurt.
- 1:04:14I had to break them up more
- 1:04:17than I expected I would have to,
- 1:04:19but it was just like chip away.
- 1:04:21How long have the two of you
- 1:04:23been working together?
- 1:04:26Two years.
- 1:04:30What's it mean to have an
- 1:04:31athlete for two years?
- 1:04:33It's super important only
- 1:04:34because when we started
- 1:04:36that was like her big goal
- 1:04:39and to finally like make it
- 1:04:40happen and like that
- 1:04:42process I think this is
- 1:04:44actually like her third
- 1:04:44season and so for it to
- 1:04:46take three seasons for it
- 1:04:47to happen it's like really
- 1:04:49awesome because it shows
- 1:04:50like her dedication like
- 1:04:52her patience and
- 1:04:53willingness to like
- 1:04:53continue working and improving.
- 1:04:55Awesome.
- 1:04:56Well good to meet you.
- 1:04:57Nice to meet you Scott.
- 1:05:43that's trailer out tomorrow
- 1:05:48this one's uh back up
- 1:05:49towards thirty minutes as
- 1:05:51an episode um conversations
- 1:05:53get a little bit longer um
- 1:05:55but yeah really getting
- 1:05:56excited about the stuff
- 1:05:57that's coming out in the
- 1:05:58next couple episodes uh but
- 1:06:00that's out tomorrow at twelve thirty
- 1:06:04and I love the music that
- 1:06:07ortega picked for the uh
- 1:06:09workout stuff uh last week
- 1:06:11we got a copyright zing for
- 1:06:13that even though he paid
- 1:06:15for the song uh so
- 1:06:16hopefully this week we
- 1:06:18don't have to go through
- 1:06:19all that stuff again uh but
- 1:06:22yeah I feel like the music
- 1:06:24stuff has been um
- 1:06:27Since October,
- 1:06:28like since putting my stuff
- 1:06:29like on YouTube,
- 1:06:30like a lot more of it has
- 1:06:32been blocked since early October,
- 1:06:34like early October.
- 1:06:34So I've been having to mute
- 1:06:38a lot more of my YouTube stuff.
- 1:06:41Like normally it was just like,
- 1:06:42you couldn't hear or you
- 1:06:44can't hear it in or watch it in Russia.
- 1:06:48I was like, I don't care.
- 1:06:49Like, cool.
- 1:06:50It was like a yellow, like warning sign.
- 1:06:53Now it's like red.
- 1:06:54Like you gotta take, you gotta mute this.
- 1:06:56So definitely for qualifiers
- 1:06:59and stuff like that,
- 1:06:59I'll have to make sure that
- 1:07:02my video is viewable.
- 1:07:04Yeah.
- 1:07:06Yeah.
- 1:07:07So I pay for royalty-free music.
- 1:07:11I pay a subscription service
- 1:07:13so that I can grab songs
- 1:07:14for this project.
- 1:07:16And Ortega does as well.
- 1:07:18So we both pay,
- 1:07:20and they should be covered and licensed.
- 1:07:23And we may get dinged.
- 1:07:24We just then have to fight with YouTube.
- 1:07:27But while you're fighting,
- 1:07:28your stuff isn't monetized.
- 1:07:31That's not cool.
- 1:07:33you're or you're sharing
- 1:07:34monetization with the
- 1:07:36writer of the song so
- 1:07:41anyway um so that's out
- 1:07:43tomorrow um uh patrick
- 1:07:48clark had to do the same
- 1:07:49here with german youtube
- 1:07:52yeah it's it's the biggest
- 1:07:54hassle probably in the
- 1:07:55whole project is just
- 1:07:57fighting those fights but
- 1:07:58The last thing I want to end
- 1:07:59with is the PFAA had a
- 1:08:01representative talk to
- 1:08:04talking elite fitness last week.
- 1:08:07Their representative was Mitch Bragg.
- 1:08:10And he just talked about a
- 1:08:11couple of things.
- 1:08:12And I don't know if
- 1:08:12anybody's listened to it.
- 1:08:15It's,
- 1:08:16I don't know.
- 1:08:17You know me.
- 1:08:17I have a thing against the PFAA,
- 1:08:19apparently.
- 1:08:20Not that I really do.
- 1:08:22I want athletes to have representation.
- 1:08:24I want things to be safe.
- 1:08:26I just think they need to be
- 1:08:28cleaner about how they go about things.
- 1:08:31And a couple of things he
- 1:08:32even admitted is the PFAA
- 1:08:35got called out by NorCal.
- 1:08:37because they put out the
- 1:08:41demands after they did a
- 1:08:43partnership with NorCal,
- 1:08:45even though it was for one event.
- 1:08:48And NorCal said, listen,
- 1:08:51we're partnering with you
- 1:08:52and we're advertising you as a partner.
- 1:08:54And then you're putting out
- 1:08:55these demands and we didn't
- 1:08:56know they were coming.
- 1:08:57Yeah.
- 1:08:59And that puts us in a position.
- 1:09:01And so Mitch was talking
- 1:09:04about how they need to be
- 1:09:05better about knowing that
- 1:09:08that when they make these
- 1:09:09partnerships and those
- 1:09:12people that are involved.
- 1:09:13I mean, that makes sense though.
- 1:09:16It does.
- 1:09:16Because if,
- 1:09:17if you're putting the sticker
- 1:09:19on your event and,
- 1:09:20and what the PFA is posting
- 1:09:23is not your personal opinion,
- 1:09:26then that can be
- 1:09:27conflicting and that can be
- 1:09:29a weird partnership.
- 1:09:30Like,
- 1:09:32so I understand NorCal's concern there.
- 1:09:35Yeah.
- 1:09:36Yeah.
- 1:09:37yeah this this mitch bragg
- 1:09:39and I don't know who he is
- 1:09:40was very open and honest
- 1:09:41about a lot of things he
- 1:09:44said that when um when they
- 1:09:46did the demands they talked
- 1:09:48to the top thirty athletes
- 1:09:53that's a different number
- 1:09:54than we've been told by
- 1:09:56both brent and pat on two different
- 1:10:00episodes uh in the podcast
- 1:10:02world um and then they also
- 1:10:05said that a lot of people
- 1:10:07agree with them but they're
- 1:10:08not willing to speak
- 1:10:09publicly um because they're
- 1:10:12afraid of the ramifications
- 1:10:13that could come interesting
- 1:10:16top thirty individual men
- 1:10:18and top thirty individual
- 1:10:19women he just said top
- 1:10:21thirty athletes yeah I'd
- 1:10:24assume both yeah I would
- 1:10:25assume as well um
- 1:10:29He also said that when they put out things,
- 1:10:31they pressure test their
- 1:10:33ideas with brands to make
- 1:10:36sure that sponsors will not
- 1:10:37be upset at what they do.
- 1:10:41And I wasn't sure how I felt about it,
- 1:10:43and I still don't know.
- 1:10:44It's something I have to think about.
- 1:10:47It may be smart for them to
- 1:10:48do that and not lose sponsorships,
- 1:10:50but I'm not sure it should be like,
- 1:10:55shouldn't it be what you
- 1:10:55really feel to be safe and
- 1:10:57not what a brand feels?
- 1:10:59Yeah.
- 1:11:03also talked throughout this
- 1:11:05whole interview about the
- 1:11:07season has to have a
- 1:11:07storyline and from like
- 1:11:11that you go you build from
- 1:11:14event one to event two to
- 1:11:15event three he kept saying
- 1:11:17weeks but then at the end
- 1:11:19said I don't mean it has to
- 1:11:20happen week one to week two
- 1:11:21to week three but like
- 1:11:23event one to event two to
- 1:11:24event three and it should
- 1:11:26build in a very linear storyline um
- 1:11:36And then he said that they
- 1:11:37were looking at events for
- 1:11:38next season to give
- 1:11:39athletes an alternative if
- 1:11:41they chose not to do the CrossFit season.
- 1:11:48I'm assuming that's just
- 1:11:49like promoting certain
- 1:11:50competitions that people are running.
- 1:11:54Yeah.
- 1:11:55Yeah.
- 1:11:58The tour or the circuit,
- 1:11:59whatever you want to call it.
- 1:12:03I think this is actually a
- 1:12:04very well put as well.
- 1:12:05Yes.
- 1:12:06The PFA shouldn't be a name
- 1:12:07partner for any event,
- 1:12:08but rather just an entity
- 1:12:09that is there for checks
- 1:12:10and balances that doesn't
- 1:12:12need to be advertised.
- 1:12:15That would save a lot.
- 1:12:17Yeah.
- 1:12:22Again,
- 1:12:22I believe that there should be
- 1:12:24representation for the athletes.
- 1:12:25I just want representation
- 1:12:26for all athletes.
- 1:12:29All athletes that are
- 1:12:29affected by the safety and
- 1:12:32competition fairness and
- 1:12:35all those things from semifinals up.
- 1:12:42That's all.
- 1:12:46So that's pretty much what I
- 1:12:47got out of that.
- 1:12:48And then I'm just going to
- 1:12:49finish up with a shout out
- 1:12:51to Chad Schroeder,
- 1:12:52who did a really awesome
- 1:12:54recap of the teens and the
- 1:12:56Masters games with
- 1:12:59important numbers for all those.
- 1:13:03And it was really
- 1:13:03fascinating reading to find out, like,
- 1:13:06people who have been –
- 1:13:09to so many games and,
- 1:13:11or so many podiums or so many, um,
- 1:13:15it was just really a
- 1:13:16fascinating read and it's,
- 1:13:18he has a link from his Instagram to, uh,
- 1:13:21the document on his LinkedIn page.
- 1:13:24Um,
- 1:13:24and it's really good if you want to go
- 1:13:25check that out.

- 1:13:31Um, so definitely do that.
- 1:13:33And yeah,
- 1:13:37I had one other thing and then it
- 1:13:38just slid out of my head, but
- 1:13:45Chad, the OG brain of CrossFit,
- 1:13:46the most underrated analyst out there.
- 1:13:49He is kind of becoming a friend of mine.
