- 1:38that you ask that because
- 1:39we're doing a um handstand
- 1:43skill progression right now
- 1:45and last last sunday we did
- 1:48like the stag drill,
- 1:49like your legs like split like that.
- 1:50Right.
- 1:51And then, um, frog, like frog scan,
- 1:55like you would have as a kid,
- 1:56put your knees on your
- 1:58elbows and then like go up
- 1:59into a headstand.
- 2:00And then to this week,
- 2:02I did a couple of the day of like crow.
- 2:06So same, like the kind of like the,
- 2:08on the knees into a handstand,
- 2:10not to your head,
- 2:11like kicking up kind of
- 2:12like a beginner press to handstand.
- 2:15Um,
- 2:16So, yeah, I don't know.
- 2:17I'll have to maybe throw the
- 2:18mat out and try a freestanding headstand.
- 2:23What was funny is Monday night,
- 2:25I got bored with the game,
- 2:26and I flipped over to the Manning cast,
- 2:29and Eli tried the headstand
- 2:34in his basement.
- 2:35So, like,
- 2:36he said if – he told Peyton if
- 2:39they scored,
- 2:40he was going to go over and
- 2:41try the headstand celebration.
- 2:42Yeah.
- 2:43So he got up into it with
- 2:44his hands touching the ground.
- 2:47Right.
- 2:47The minute he took his hands off,
- 2:49he toppled.
- 2:50Yeah.
- 2:51But he said, like, think about it.
- 2:54Amun-Ra had a helmet.
- 2:56Yeah.
- 2:58Which would make it a little bit easier to,
- 3:00like, not crush your skull.
- 3:03Right.
- 3:04While you're doing that.
- 3:06But, yeah, what a cool celebration.
- 3:08Yeah.
- 3:09And it started in a high school.
- 3:10Did it?
- 3:11Yeah.
- 3:14And he's not the first one.
- 3:15Someone else had done it
- 3:16like the week or whatever
- 3:17before and then.
- 3:18Yeah,
- 3:19apparently a kid in high school did
- 3:20it as a shout out to something.
- 3:24And then it just has spread
- 3:26since then as people trying it.
- 3:28But the Atlanta Falcon that tried it,
- 3:31it was weak.
- 3:33It was weak sauce.
- 3:34It did not.
- 3:36I had some pretty good hang time.
- 3:39Yeah.
- 3:39I think it was Drake London
- 3:40of the Falcons.
- 3:40Okay.
- 3:41He,
- 3:42he piked before he really got it where
- 3:46Amin Ra went full, like perpendicular,
- 3:50strict core engaged
- 3:54headstand before he came down.
- 3:57Yeah.
- 3:58Yeah.
- 3:58Well,
- 3:59hopefully he does about three of
- 4:00those tonight.

- 4:38Maybe they woke up at five a.m.
- 4:40like I did and are just hanging on.
- 4:46so uh yeah but we're
- 4:47thinking about making some
- 4:48changes not to this show
- 4:50this is one of our uh core
- 4:52shows that will not move um
- 4:54it'll be here every week
- 4:56and our round table but I'm
- 4:57thinking about putting some
- 4:58other stuff out uh we'll
- 5:00see about that in the
- 5:01coming weeks and months um
- 5:05tomorrow is veterans day sure is
- 5:08So make sure you thank a veteran,
- 5:10thank them for their service.
- 5:11If you're listening and you are a veteran,
- 5:13thank you for your service.
- 5:15Thank you.
- 5:16The CrossFit world
- 5:18commemorates this and
- 5:20celebrates this by
- 5:21generally doing Chad one thousand now.
- 5:26You actually did this game style.
- 5:29Well, did you watch the whole reel?
- 5:34I did not watch all real.
- 5:35So did it not go well?
- 5:39So we started that and then
- 5:41we did like two hundred game style.
- 5:44And then we're like,
- 5:45I don't know if this is
- 5:46such a great idea.
- 5:48So we pulled the boxes off
- 5:50and we started doing
- 5:52we went to so my class wad
- 5:54for saturday was forty five
- 5:56minutes of I do ten steps
- 5:58you do ten steps on one box
- 6:00and once we had done the
- 6:01two hundred solo that
- 6:03version is harder and I I
- 6:06tweaked my calf last sunday
- 6:08um and coming down was not
- 6:10great so I was like let's
- 6:12just swap to going to the
- 6:14you go I go and we thought
- 6:15about going over still but
- 6:17we're like let's just pull
- 6:17the box out and so we
- 6:19finished up by going you go I go
- 6:21Okay.
- 6:22So if you don't know what that means,
- 6:24at the games this year,
- 6:26it was step up on a box,
- 6:27then up to another box,
- 6:29and then down the other side.
- 6:31So you had a pyramid of boxes.
- 6:33Right.
- 6:34So you actually did one, two, three, four.
- 6:38It's just two.
- 6:39Oh, just two.
- 6:40Yeah.
- 6:40So it's one, two, down, down, three, four,
- 6:43down, down.
- 6:45It's slower for sure.
- 6:48I think it was like, I was like five.
- 6:51I don't know, five,
- 6:52thirty six or something for
- 6:53my first round of twenty steps.
- 6:56And I was like four.
- 6:59I'm like four something when
- 7:00I do regular Chad step ups, but, you know,
- 7:03for twenty steps.
- 7:05Yeah.
- 7:05Slower.
- 7:07kind of scary I don't know
- 7:09that it would have been so
- 7:09scary at the games with a
- 7:11load of them and they
- 7:12probably had it scared I
- 7:14didn't even like I didn't
- 7:15band my boxes down and some
- 7:16of our boxes are getting
- 7:17like real dinged up on the
- 7:19side a little bit wobbly so
- 7:21yeah you get to the very
- 7:23top your way up there and
- 7:24it's a little unstable and
- 7:25you're like I don't really
- 7:26like it up here yeah uh
- 7:30lana did hers uh on a
- 7:32twenty inch box with no
- 7:34vest awesome job yeah
- 7:38she did comment on my post
- 7:39she said her there they
- 7:40were doing it as a gym
- 7:42today so that's awesome
- 7:44yeah I'll probably do some
- 7:46version tomorrow uh using
- 7:49something around my house I
- 7:50don't have a box but um
- 7:53yeah I'll probably do
- 7:55something up and down all
- 7:57day yep I saw um I think it
- 8:02was hillar and I think he's down with uh
- 8:09William Leahy.
- 8:09Oh, yeah.
- 8:10They were doing a stair stepper.
- 8:15And that one, you'd have to keep the pace,
- 8:17right?
- 8:17Because it's moving.
- 8:18Right.
- 8:18Yeah.
- 8:20So, yeah.
- 8:21Gnarly.
- 8:24Ew.
- 8:24But, yeah.
- 8:24So, thank you so much to the veterans.
- 8:27And thank you for giving us
- 8:28the day off tomorrow
- 8:29because the last couple
- 8:30days getting up at five a.m.
- 8:33I used to do that all the
- 8:34time and now I cannot.
- 8:37it is just miserable for me
- 8:38to get up in the morning.
- 8:40My circadian rhythm has
- 8:41always been a night owl and
- 8:43I kind of forced myself out of it.
- 8:45And now that I'm back to that, uh, I,
- 8:48I want,
- 8:49I don't want any part of anything else.
- 8:51Yeah.
- 8:51Yeah.
- 8:52Aaron has tomorrow off too.
- 8:53So that'd be nice.
- 8:56Yeah.
- 8:58Catch up on some stuff.
- 8:59So, um, everything else going well,
- 9:02how's the tennis lessons?
- 9:06Interesting.
- 9:08Yeah.
- 9:10I suck.
- 9:10I mean, like I just, I,
- 9:12I can get by playing tennis
- 9:15matches by just like
- 9:16running around and being quick,
- 9:18but like lessons and he's
- 9:20like trying to fix my stroke.
- 9:22Like I, I don't know.
- 9:25I just can't get, I can't figure it out.
- 9:27Like I can't come to from the side.
- 9:28You'd think I'd be able to
- 9:29like more like golf side
- 9:31and swinging through, but I can't like,
- 9:34I like to run up to the
- 9:35ball and like poke at the ball.
- 9:37And he's trying to fix that.
- 9:38But hi, Tristan.
- 9:39Yeah.
- 9:41When I was in college and I
- 9:43retired from swimming,
- 9:45I kind of dove into tennis.
- 9:52And not for any reason,
- 9:53but other than just to try
- 9:54to stay moving and find something fun.
- 9:57Yeah.
- 9:58Yeah.
- 10:00And I was okay.
- 10:01I was doing pretty well,
- 10:02just playing with friends.
- 10:03And then one of my friend's
- 10:05girlfriends was a
- 10:07world-ranked tennis player.
- 10:09Yeah.
- 10:10And she wanted to play a little bit,
- 10:14and so I agreed to play with her,
- 10:16and she would kill me.
- 10:17But then she would give me lessons after.
- 10:19And I started getting better.
- 10:21Um, and I,
- 10:22and I developed like even a
- 10:24pretty good first serve,
- 10:25but I wasn't very accurate with it.
- 10:26So if it hit, it was awesome.
- 10:28If it didn't,
- 10:29then my second serve was blah.
- 10:31And then I just had to run
- 10:32and do whatever.
- 10:34And then when we moved to Florida,
- 10:35I met a guy there and we
- 10:37played every Sunday.
- 10:38That's awesome.
- 10:40In the Florida heat, we would play five,
- 10:42like five sets.
- 10:43And, um,
- 10:46It was really good for me.
- 10:48I wish I could find someone
- 10:49to do that again.
- 10:51I don't know if my body
- 10:51could handle the pounding of tennis.
- 10:55That's why pickleball is all
- 10:56the rage because you don't
- 10:57have to move as much.
- 10:59It doesn't seem as fun to me.
- 11:03I like the running around.
- 11:04I'll purposely go back and forth.
- 11:08I like that.
- 11:10I just want to get decent
- 11:11enough to be able to play
- 11:12with Lucas and not get demolished.
- 11:15Yeah.
- 11:16Yeah.
- 11:16The girl that I would play with,
- 11:17she would demolish me all the time.
- 11:19Like literally she would
- 11:21have me running from side to side.
- 11:22Yeah.
- 11:23And I'm just returning it
- 11:24right to her every time, you know,
- 11:26and then she's just
- 11:27standing there like tink, tink, tink,
- 11:29like doing,
- 11:30making me look like a puppet on a string.
- 11:34But it's cool that you're
- 11:35trying to take lessons
- 11:36because it's a fun sport.
- 11:39Yeah.
- 11:42And as long as you have a friend,
- 11:43you can play anywhere.
- 11:44Mm hmm.
- 11:45You know, which is pretty cool.
- 11:49Yeah,
- 11:49I think that's nothing real exciting
- 11:51in our neck of the woods.
- 11:53It's been rogue and hanging out.
- 12:02Someone just came into our document.
- 12:05It's an anonymous kangaroo.
- 12:06Is it me?
- 12:10Maybe yours is usually red
- 12:12and says redemption.
- 12:12But I don't know.
- 12:17Who knows?
- 12:18I'm in.
- 12:24I was going to say something
- 12:25and just totally my Julie
- 12:27made me watch the movie
- 12:29Woman of the Hour.
- 12:32The new Anna Kendrick on Netflix.
- 12:34Okay.
- 12:34Okay.
- 12:37Um, it was her like directorial debut and,
- 12:40um, and she,
- 12:42it's about a serial killer
- 12:44who in the seventies,
- 12:46it's a real true story.
- 12:47Um,
- 12:47but she went on the dating game and he
- 12:49was one of the contestants.
- 12:50Oh yeah.
- 12:50Yeah.
- 12:53Yeah.
- 12:53I, uh, I didn't like the movie.
- 12:55No.
- 12:56Yeah.
- 12:57I, I would not recommend.
- 13:02Hmm.
- 13:04And I don't think it spoils it too much,
- 13:06but like the Anna Kendrick
- 13:09part is half the movie and
- 13:12her part and her character
- 13:13is irrelevant to how the story ends.
- 13:17So to me, like, like I,
- 13:22the story at the end,
- 13:23when they updated you about
- 13:24all this stuff,
- 13:25this person had done and blah, blah,
- 13:26blah.
- 13:27Like I was like, well,
- 13:27that's really interesting.
- 13:29Why wouldn't,
- 13:29why don't you tell me that story?
- 13:31And why did you choose to pick this?
- 13:33um I think the dating game
- 13:36thing should have been like
- 13:37a small five minute piece
- 13:39of what he kind of did
- 13:41instead of it being a major
- 13:44aspect of the movie that's
- 13:45my opinion um I know my
- 13:47daughter loved it I but I I
- 13:50did not I did not care for
- 13:52it I'll keep that in mind
- 13:55we watched um we watched
- 13:57hillbilly elegy last night
- 14:00a few years ago did you
- 14:01watch it when it came out
- 14:02yeah but it was good yeah
- 14:06it takes place like right
- 14:07around us I was gonna say
- 14:09that it's middletown ohio
- 14:10like is it pretty accurate
- 14:12of that area yeah like
- 14:14that's down in appalachia
- 14:15so that's like yeah that's
- 14:16where like cory went to
- 14:17college uh that area down there um
- 14:24And Tristan says movies.
- 14:28Watch the new Joker.
- 14:30Not good.
- 14:31Really?
- 14:32That's what I've heard.
- 14:33Oh, that's a bummer.
- 14:36But yeah,
- 14:38they actually come to Columbus
- 14:39for some stuff in the movie
- 14:42Hillbilly Elegy.
- 14:43And and so like some of that
- 14:45stuff is very familiar.
- 14:47But yeah,
- 14:47it's definitely that where Corey
- 14:49went to college.
- 14:49If you leave her to college town,
- 14:51it's very much that.
- 14:56but I could not believe that
- 14:57that was um the grandmother
- 15:02was uh the famous actress I
- 15:07don't know who played her
- 15:07but boy did they do a
- 15:09phenomenal job it's a
- 15:11famous it's she's won like
- 15:12ten academy awards like uh
- 15:14oh I know who it is yeah um
- 15:19now that you say that and I
- 15:20like picture her not as
- 15:22I could name her all the
- 15:23time and now I can't.
- 15:25She was in Madison County.
- 15:28She was in Mamma Mia.
- 15:32She was in Meryl Streep.
- 15:34Yes.
- 15:34No.
- 15:34No.
- 15:35Yep.
- 15:36It is not.
- 15:38It is.
- 15:38Oh, that's not what I thought it was.
- 15:42But the.
- 15:45Which makes it even more
- 15:46amazing that it was her.
- 15:47Yeah.
- 15:48Yeah.
- 15:50did a good job on her
- 15:50wardrobe wardrobe and
- 15:52makeup like holy cow and
- 15:55now he's our vice president
- 15:58it's a cool story like dude
- 16:00came from literally phil
- 16:04yeah yeah for him yeah um
- 16:11so yeah joker I liked the
- 16:14first joker but it was a
- 16:15one watch movie like yeah I
- 16:16could never go back and put
- 16:18myself through that again
- 16:21And the second one is
- 16:22supposedly like a musical.
- 16:27Oh.
- 16:29Oh, thanks.
- 16:30And I like a musical in the right place,
- 16:32but Joker just doesn't seem
- 16:33to be that kind of place for me.
- 16:37Yeah, no, that does not sound interesting.
- 16:40All right.
- 16:40Well,
- 16:40we're we're sixty minutes and we
- 16:42should probably hit rogue a little bit.
- 16:46All right.
- 16:46What do we got?
- 16:47So day three from Rogue today.
- 16:51Got up at five a.m.
- 16:52and they pushed the start
- 16:53time an hour ahead.
- 16:55So got it for nothing.
- 16:56And then they pushed it to six.
- 16:58But we started with Gondola.
- 17:00Gondola.
- 17:04Which was our horizontal pegboard.
- 17:09SkiErg and GHD.
- 17:12If you knew what you were
- 17:13doing on a horizontal pegboard,
- 17:15you crushed it.
- 17:17If you didn't,
- 17:17it took some time to figure it out.
- 17:19Or if you had limited grip capacity,
- 17:22you hit a dead spot.
- 17:24Yeah.
- 17:26And it was all about the pegboard.
- 17:30Yeah.
- 17:32Speed on the pegboard.
- 17:35It was interesting to watch.
- 17:37More fun on the men's side.
- 17:41Did you get the pick right
- 17:42on Laura versus the field?
- 17:46She won, right?
- 17:47No, Brent got her by four seconds.
- 17:50I didn't get it then.
- 17:53I didn't even check my standards.
- 17:54He looked great.
- 17:56He did.
- 17:58If he would have done a
- 17:59double three-sixty coming
- 18:00off the last one,
- 18:01maybe then she would have won.
- 18:02Right.
- 18:06He was fun to watch.
- 18:07He was so smooth on it.
- 18:08It was interesting to watch
- 18:09people's technique.
- 18:10Some swing, some just boom, boom, boom,
- 18:14boom, boom.
- 18:15Like you're like, get a little.
- 18:17Well, Laura was one at a time, but fast.
- 18:20Yeah.
- 18:21I was actually surprised she didn't take,
- 18:23cause she would have been
- 18:24faster than Brent.
- 18:25Had she like probably used a
- 18:26little bit of like the last
- 18:28one he was doing like five at a time,
- 18:31which was pretty amazing.
- 18:34It also was reported that
- 18:36Emma Tall suffered a tear
- 18:39in her shoulder a week
- 18:42before practicing the
- 18:44horizontal pegboard.
- 18:45And that's why she hit the wall she hit.
- 18:48I see.
- 18:51And that was reported by David Schrunke,
- 18:52her partner.
- 18:53Okay.
- 18:54On Instagram today.
- 18:58So...
- 19:00You know, and I almost,
- 19:01when we were picking for
- 19:02third place yesterday, I almost said,
- 19:05like,
- 19:05the tape on her shoulder has me a
- 19:07little concerned.
- 19:08But she looked okay in the
- 19:10other events that I wasn't,
- 19:11like... I can't remember who I picked.
- 19:14You picked Ariel.
- 19:15Come on.
- 19:16I mean, it's a good pick.
- 19:18It's a good pick.
- 19:22Okay.
- 19:23Just saying.
- 19:24Emma or married?
- 19:26Craig's saying husband.
- 19:28Uh...
- 19:29last I knew they were they
- 19:31were together I don't know
- 19:32what the official status of
- 19:33yeah I didn't know that I
- 19:34thought they were just
- 19:35boyfriend girlfriend yeah
- 19:39um I know like lynette
- 19:41burger is really tight with
- 19:42her yes I could find out
- 19:45because she coached her at
- 19:46the games two years ago
- 19:47craig says yes good for
- 19:51them um I mean I don't know that was
- 19:59I didn't like that they had
- 20:00to stay in the same line.
- 20:03I don't know what,
- 20:04I don't know why they opted
- 20:06for that rule.
- 20:08Cause it was already
- 20:09difficult enough for the women.
- 20:10Like,
- 20:10why are you putting limitations on
- 20:12what they're doing?
- 20:13Like they just need to get across.
- 20:14Well,
- 20:14most of them did the bottom line anyway.
- 20:16Like where were they?
- 20:19I don't know.
- 20:19I don't, you know,
- 20:20who knows if they would
- 20:21have done when you're not going up.
- 20:24It may have,
- 20:25it may have gotten some of
- 20:26them to bend their elbow.
- 20:28Did you see Hiller test it?
- 20:30No.
- 20:32Like he showed it and he's like in the,
- 20:33like you would pick
- 20:34pegboard bent and like reaching,
- 20:36reaching across, reaching through.
- 20:37And so like ones above ones below, like,
- 20:42I think it could have been quicker.
- 20:45Well, Hiller was a wrestler.
- 20:48So, you know, they did that.
- 20:50They do that stuff all the time.
- 20:54Um,
- 20:55what,
- 20:56what I did notice Saxon pulled
- 20:59himself up every time.
- 21:01Yup.
- 21:02So you can place it in and drop it,
- 21:04the peg in each time Chandler did that.
- 21:07Um, but yeah,
- 21:10they would have probably been
- 21:11more comfortable.
- 21:12Could they have gone like
- 21:14they're alternating rows?
- 21:17Yeah.
- 21:18It, whatever it was,
- 21:19it wreaked havoc on the leaderboard, uh,
- 21:21this morning.
- 21:22Yeah.
- 21:22Um,
- 21:23But the true fact is that
- 21:25the other stuff was just interference.
- 21:27There was no game-changing
- 21:31move on the GHD or the SkiErg.
- 21:35Yeah, I agree.
- 21:36And my thought after
- 21:37watching it was I would
- 21:39have much rather seen a
- 21:42pegboard elimination.
- 21:44Just do a pegboard.
- 21:45Because that's an accurate
- 21:47thing and quickness.
- 21:48And four rounds of that,
- 21:51you did four pegboards anyway, right?
- 21:54Yeah.
- 21:57Yeah.
- 22:00I mean, Laura would have still won.
- 22:04Sure.
- 22:04And Brent would have still won.
- 22:06Well, he ended up second, but very close,
- 22:09right?
- 22:09Well, yeah.
- 22:13He won the event.
- 22:14Brent won the event.
- 22:15But he didn't win the duel.
- 22:18He got second to me.
- 22:19So the other way would have
- 22:21benefited Brent.
- 22:22Okay.
- 22:26So then we went to the handstand walk,
- 22:28lunge, heavy double under.
- 22:29I thought that was a really good event.
- 22:32I liked the pirouette that
- 22:34they added to the end of
- 22:35the handstand walk.
- 22:37You had to make a call.
- 22:40Do I come down,
- 22:41shake out before I do that with the turn?
- 22:44And then some had to stop right after it.
- 22:47Some were able to go the rest of the way.
- 22:48I'm broken.
- 22:51It really did make a huge
- 22:52bit of difference.
- 22:54The lunge.
- 22:56they kept commenting on the
- 22:57tailgate show how beautiful
- 22:58that seer bell was and it
- 23:00was it looked really good
- 23:03like overhead in that lunge
- 23:05it did everyone I thought
- 23:06everyone had really good
- 23:07body positioning um bring
- 23:11up buddha but uh emily
- 23:13rolf's technique on the ght
- 23:14people said wasn't correct
- 23:16I can't stand that I was
- 23:18shocked that rogue didn't
- 23:20it's specified it's allowed
- 23:22though she's allowed to do
- 23:23I know I I I agree that's
- 23:25something I was shocked
- 23:26that rogue said whatever
- 23:28goes I can't stand seeing
- 23:30that right it is not
- 23:33optimal like if you get
- 23:35your l-one they do not
- 23:36teach that as the technique
- 23:38right right but
- 23:41They allowed it in the standards at Rogue,
- 23:44and they've allowed it at
- 23:45other events as well.
- 23:47And if you can get away with it,
- 23:48it just works different muscles.
- 23:52And so it's more of you're
- 23:53pulling with your legs
- 23:54instead of your abs.
- 23:57Apparently Tristan doesn't like it either,
- 24:02the old cheater GHD.
- 24:03Yes, that one.
- 24:05You can call it that,
- 24:05but if it's allowed in the rules,
- 24:07you're allowed to do it.
- 24:09yeah but okay this is why
- 24:11things in our sport keep
- 24:12happening and keeping
- 24:13problems because people see
- 24:15this and they're like oh I
- 24:17should do it that way and
- 24:18then an online comp comes
- 24:19out and has them and it
- 24:20says don't do it but like
- 24:22and who's freaking watching
- 24:23all those videos and and
- 24:25checking that like that's
- 24:27like get a standard down
- 24:31pat and keep it that way so
- 24:32people train the proper freaking way
- 24:35I know when I had to judge
- 24:36it at regionals back in the day,
- 24:39your butt had to be behind
- 24:42the top of the pad.
- 24:45Yes.
- 24:47In eighty,
- 24:48ninety percent of comps or even
- 24:51online qualifiers,
- 24:52it'll say that on the rules.
- 24:53So like.
- 24:55But it's in here, apparently.
- 24:56Yeah, I know it's.
- 24:57I don't know.
- 25:01It goes back to me.
- 25:03It goes back to like.
- 25:05how you, you know, how you practice,
- 25:08how you play.
- 25:08So she must practice them that way.
- 25:09And I don't like that.
- 25:11Another show,
- 25:12but it really goes to having
- 25:15a rule book that has
- 25:16standard of movement for your,
- 25:19your basic core movements
- 25:20that you use a lot.
- 25:22Sure.
- 25:23Or if all the top level
- 25:25athletes actually moved
- 25:27correctly and moved well
- 25:28and did things the proper way,
- 25:30then all the fans that
- 25:31watch would also do it the proper way.
- 25:33Right, but this is a sport,
- 25:35and people are going to
- 25:35look at it for any
- 25:36advantage they can unless
- 25:37you put it in the rule book.
- 25:40Quit trying to cheat things.
- 25:42That's what I'm saying.
- 25:43As a professional athlete,
- 25:44be professional.
- 25:46Quit trying to cheat things.
- 25:48But that's being naive.
- 25:51Yeah, I don't know.
- 25:52Look, people in football try to do stuff,
- 25:57grab, tug, pull.
- 25:59whenever they can in baseball,
- 26:01they're given signs by
- 26:03beating on trash cans in the dugout.
- 26:06Like it's people cheat.
- 26:07That's what sports it's part of sports.
- 26:11You've got, if you want to fix it,
- 26:13you need to a rule book of standards.
- 26:15I agree with that.
- 26:24I know.
- 26:25But if you had a good
- 26:27standard of movement book
- 26:29that you put out there,
- 26:30maybe people would adopt
- 26:31that because it would take
- 26:33a huge chunk off of your
- 26:35plate writing up the
- 26:38workout descriptions.
- 26:39Yeah.
- 26:40And it would make judging better over.
- 26:43I mean, it might take a year or two,
- 26:44but like, man,
- 26:46once they figured out these
- 26:47movements and what they're
- 26:47supposed to be looking for
- 26:48and it's consistent at every single comp,
- 26:51you notice when people
- 26:52start doing things a little funky.
- 26:54I mean, you all noticed it.
- 26:56Everyone's like, man,
- 26:57everyone went on live.
- 26:58It's like, that doesn't seem right.
- 27:01There was a man who did it too.
- 27:03Yeah.
- 27:04I can't remember which one now, but.
- 27:05Yeah, I don't know.
- 27:09So just don't pick on my Emily, okay?
- 27:11I like Emily.
- 27:13I mean,
- 27:13almost like maybe she went too fast
- 27:15there doing that.
- 27:16And was it even necessary?
- 27:21Probably not.
- 27:24Um,
- 27:24and it didn't matter cause she got
- 27:25stuck on the pegboard.
- 27:26I know that's what I'm saying.
- 27:27Like, don't need to like race those.
- 27:29You didn't need to race those implements.
- 27:31You needed to be smooth on the pegboard.
- 27:34I think it looks terrible.
- 27:35And I,
- 27:35and it's not the way you're taught
- 27:37in an L one,
- 27:38but most of these athletes
- 27:39haven't even taken their L one.
- 27:40So, you know, it's true.
- 27:44Who knows?
- 27:44Yeah.
- 27:46So we talked handstand, walk, lunge,
- 27:48heavy double under.
- 27:50Heavy double under didn't
- 27:51seem to be a problem for a
- 27:53lot of the top tier athletes.
- 27:55It looks like Haley has not
- 27:56got that fixed.
- 27:57That's what I figured.
- 28:01She had that problem at regionals,
- 28:02if you remember,
- 28:03where she's a little
- 28:05cockeyed when she's swinging.
- 28:07And it was still there and evident.
- 28:08And the heavy rope will make
- 28:11you pay for that.
- 28:12Right.
- 28:15Um, it was funny though,
- 28:16when you looked at the men,
- 28:18Adler was jumping so much
- 28:20higher than the other men,
- 28:21like less efficient.
- 28:23I said the exact same thing
- 28:25watching it live.
- 28:26Um, I was like, dude, Adler looks like I,
- 28:29I thought it to me,
- 28:30he looked like Jim peeper jumping.
- 28:32Jim jumps really high and like,
- 28:34and I'm like, it is not smooth.
- 28:36Like he is spending so much energy.
- 28:40Yeah.
- 28:40He's, he still did.
- 28:41Okay.
- 28:41This weekend.
- 28:41But, um,
- 28:44Laura looked amazing.
- 28:47So smooth on every aspect of it.
- 28:50Um, didn't make a, uh, an error.
- 28:53Um, and then did Brent won that one,
- 28:56that one, right?
- 28:59Uh, no, no, that one.
- 29:00I was so annoyed with
- 29:02Madaris one in there.
- 29:05The live stream did not have him on it.
- 29:08Right.
- 29:09Which in second was Jay Crouch.
- 29:12Yep.
- 29:13Um, yeah, the live stream didn't even,
- 29:16you couldn't even see,
- 29:16I like rewound it to try to
- 29:18see if I could even see him
- 29:20in the far end of the camera,
- 29:21like lunging or starting to
- 29:24handstand walk.
- 29:24You never saw him.
- 29:27Yeah.
- 29:28Justin was kind of invisible all weekend.
- 29:31Yeah.
- 29:31That's who did I call for that workout?
- 29:34Yeah.
- 29:34I called it in the heat went up to,
- 29:36I actually went with your advice.
- 29:37Okay.
- 29:39Um,
- 29:41But yeah,
- 29:42the Justin one that we don't know
- 29:44if he looked good or not on
- 29:45it because we didn't see one.
- 29:47But other guys did.
- 29:49Brent looked good.
- 29:50But Brent, his handstand walks kind of,
- 29:55he had to break them up
- 29:56much more on the last round
- 29:58where Jay Crouch did not.
- 29:59And that's where Jay kind of
- 30:01got ahead of him.
- 30:02And apparently Medeiros blew
- 30:03by both of them.
- 30:06uh so yeah um that was that
- 30:10was a fun event to watch um
- 30:13then we go oh I did a
- 30:15judging thing on this um
- 30:18I'm watching it live and
- 30:20danny spiegel is get on the
- 30:23handstand walk is being
- 30:24told to go no no come back
- 30:26no go no come back and then
- 30:28a head judge has to come
- 30:29over and tell her where she
- 30:31needs to start the next yeah
- 30:34If you are a judge and you
- 30:36don't know where to tell an
- 30:37athlete to start after they
- 30:39come down on a handstand walk,
- 30:41you shouldn't be judging.
- 30:42Right.
- 30:42They made her do a whole extra section.
- 30:45And then she said afterwards
- 30:48on the tailgate show,
- 30:49so you had to have the
- 30:50premium package to see this.
- 30:52she did not do enough reps
- 30:56for the workout.
- 30:57And she reported it to the
- 30:58head judge afterwards.
- 31:00And she said she was
- 31:01probably going to get a
- 31:02penalty and she was fine with that,
- 31:04but she didn't want to
- 31:05cheat the system because
- 31:06her judge let her go before she had to.
- 31:12So she did not go into
- 31:14details to what part rumor
- 31:16was that it was double under.
- 31:17She didn't do the full hundred.
- 31:19Um,
- 31:21but I don't know that for a fact.
- 31:23And when you saw the judge
- 31:24messing up just the handstand walk,
- 31:26I was like,
- 31:27that judge shouldn't even be
- 31:28on the floor.
- 31:29Like she should have been pulled,
- 31:31especially on a Sunday.
- 31:33Yeah.
- 31:34Maybe it wasn't Danny.
- 31:35It was maybe it was someone
- 31:36else that I saw get told to,
- 31:39to like restart their handstand walk,
- 31:42but they got,
- 31:43they had already passed the
- 31:45one white line.
- 31:47So I,
- 31:48they were way way almost in
- 31:50the next one but they
- 31:51pulled them all the way
- 31:52back to the very beginning
- 31:54which made no sense to me
- 31:57but I would say overall
- 31:58like there were not a lot
- 32:00of judging issues no this
- 32:02weekend I think it was one
- 32:04of the cleaner events you
- 32:06had um I wish they would
- 32:09announce penalties
- 32:11So you,
- 32:12you understood why you're the
- 32:14person you're rooting for
- 32:15that you put in the heat
- 32:16one app is winning, uh,
- 32:18is no longer in the event.
- 32:19Yeah.
- 32:21Like that would be nice to know,
- 32:23but they don't really care about me.
- 32:25So,
- 32:28and then we went to the big secret finale,
- 32:30which was Sam bag race.
- 32:35And I thought it was boring.
- 32:41I don't disagree.
- 32:44It just, it,
- 32:46it was hard to tell what rep
- 32:48they were on.
- 32:50It was clunky.
- 32:53If you were there live,
- 32:54maybe it was better because again,
- 32:58only being able to see a
- 32:59limited amount of the floor,
- 33:01you didn't know who was where and what,
- 33:03and the rep counters were way off on the,
- 33:06on the stream.
- 33:08Um,
- 33:10And I just didn't, and I,
- 33:11I love grace as a workout.
- 33:14Uh, I did not like, I did not like this.
- 33:21I, yeah,
- 33:21I don't know what I would have
- 33:22rather seen.
- 33:23Like,
- 33:24I don't know if it needed to be
- 33:25spread out on the floor
- 33:26more with clear numbers.
- 33:29Um,
- 33:32I don't know if I would have rather
- 33:32seen it go over the shoulder.
- 33:35Um, I, yeah, it,
- 33:38It was just meh for me.
- 33:42When you, when you take away the,
- 33:44now it's probably what helped the judging,
- 33:46but when you take away the
- 33:48touch and go and you make
- 33:51them do the arm out,
- 33:54it just slowed it down to
- 33:55make it really clunky to me.
- 33:59Yeah, but it would have been so sloppy.
- 34:02It would have been,
- 34:03I admitted it probably helped the judging,
- 34:06but that's where you just
- 34:06go over the shoulder.
- 34:09I mean, yeah,
- 34:10it takes away the touch and go,
- 34:11but people,
- 34:13cause I think even there's
- 34:14still like the arm is off,
- 34:16but they're still questionable.
- 34:18Are you stable there?
- 34:20That seems like it's right about like,
- 34:21you're,
- 34:21you're kind of already dropping it,
- 34:23even though your hand came off.
- 34:24Right.
- 34:25So like,
- 34:26and those people got to move
- 34:28quicker and got a little
- 34:29slightly less fatigue.
- 34:30Like if you're going to like
- 34:32be questionable on some of those,
- 34:33then just go over the shoulder.
- 34:34If you, if you're trying to not,
- 34:35if you're trying to
- 34:36eliminate the touch and go
- 34:37pop it over the shoulder.
- 34:39Then people skirt the body,
- 34:41especially with a sandbag that big.
- 34:44I don't know.
- 34:45I don't know.
- 34:46That's a tough one for me.
- 34:47And once again,
- 34:50everyone just wants things
- 34:51to be heavier and, oh,
- 34:53put the heavier bag for the women.
- 34:54And they're still a minute
- 34:55slower than the men.
- 34:56Like, why?
- 34:58Why can't we just move it faster?
- 35:01Again, you and I disagree on that.
- 35:02I don't really care that the
- 35:03women are slower because
- 35:04you're only competing against women.
- 35:06There's a lot not finishing too, though.
- 35:09many people didn't finish
- 35:10that I don't know enough I
- 35:14have it up I can look uh
- 35:21four five three four they
- 35:26but they're all slow like
- 35:27slower it's not as it's not
- 35:29as exciting at the end I
- 35:34thought the men's white
- 35:35race was actually pretty exciting
- 35:39didn't think any of it was
- 35:40exciting so Lynn Lynn has
- 35:49my back and says that only
- 35:50four didn't finish and they
- 35:52weren't going to they
- 35:52weren't going to this is
- 35:53too heavy it slowed
- 35:55everyone down I mean when
- 35:56Tia is a minute slower than the men it's
- 36:02It's fine.
- 36:04Tia won.
- 36:06So this weekend,
- 36:07it was either Tia or Laura
- 36:09that won every event.
- 36:11Tia won five.
- 36:12Laura won four.
- 36:14Tia wins the event.
- 36:16Are you surprised Tia won that event?
- 36:20I did not pick her.
- 36:21I will say that.
- 36:21I didn't either.
- 36:23But I'm never surprised when she wins.
- 36:25No.
- 36:26But I didn't pick her.
- 36:27So, yeah, I mean...
- 36:29wasn't my first thought like
- 36:31and the way laura was
- 36:32talking all weekend and
- 36:33last the last day try like
- 36:37basically calling her shot
- 36:38on the heavy sandbag or
- 36:39danny you this one's a
- 36:41little more fitness
- 36:42endurance I called danny
- 36:45she took second um laura
- 36:47took fourth I think that I
- 36:48had both of them in my heat
- 36:49one I did too um I did not
- 36:53have ariel third yeah on that event
- 36:57but she is getting stronger.
- 36:59And we've talked about that this weekend.
- 37:01I would have thought Alex
- 37:02Kazan would have done
- 37:03better on that than Ariel,
- 37:06but Haley super impressed me.
- 37:10Yeah.
- 37:11Well, that first heat with, with Haley,
- 37:14Emily.
- 37:15Yeah.
- 37:15Emily, holy cow.
- 37:17Finishing it fairly quickly.
- 37:19Yeah.
- 37:20Surprised me.
- 37:23They looked good.
- 37:26Yeah.
- 37:26Super happy for them.
- 37:29So, yeah,
- 37:32so then we go to the overall leaderboard,
- 37:35and I guess we can pull it
- 37:36up real quick since I have it here.
- 37:40So do you know,
- 37:42was Brooke one of the ones
- 37:46penalized in the duel?
- 37:49I do not know.
- 37:51Again,
- 37:52I said I wish they would tell us
- 37:53because you're only speculating.
- 37:56What did you say the penalty on that was?
- 37:59Ten seconds?
- 38:00Yeah,
- 38:00then I think she for sure was penalized.
- 38:07I think Brooke would have podiumed.
- 38:10Well,
- 38:10I think Danny would have come really
- 38:12close if she would have if
- 38:14she wouldn't have been
- 38:15penalized on that either
- 38:16because she took like a dead last.
- 38:18Was Danny?
- 38:19Because Brooke I think got nineteenth.
- 38:21I think Danny was twentieth.
- 38:26I can't get there.
- 38:29But Brooke would have beat her.
- 38:30Uh, Danny took eighteenth.
- 38:32Okay.
- 38:32So,
- 38:33so Brooke took nineteenth and Brooke
- 38:34was forty points ahead of Danny.
- 38:38Like Brooke's only thirty
- 38:39points behind Ariel and
- 38:42took nineteenth in that work in the,
- 38:44in the dual workout.
- 38:45So if she gets tenth or eleventh,
- 38:48even just makes it,
- 38:49makes it through that round,
- 38:51she's podiuming.
- 38:54Yeah.
- 38:58I don't think I don't think
- 38:59anyone's mentioned that.
- 39:00Like,
- 39:00there's I think it was pretty good
- 39:02weekend for Brooke.
- 39:03But I mean, I think she basically.
- 39:07I just feel like dogs on
- 39:09Danny for the most part.
- 39:10And I had a great weekend.
- 39:13I do, too.
- 39:14And you know what?
- 39:15I was quite impressed with
- 39:16her movement this weekend.
- 39:17She did a good job on her ring muscle ups.
- 39:21um,
- 39:21act like really like took her time on
- 39:23those and pressed out.
- 39:25I was impressed with her this weekend too.
- 39:27And very, um, and I know Danny's like,
- 39:34I know she's friends with
- 39:35Jen and I know she's like a
- 39:36super bubbly person and
- 39:37probably hard to dislike if
- 39:39you know her in person.
- 39:40Right.
- 39:40She,
- 39:41you could just see that on the floor
- 39:42with fans interaction.
- 39:44She,
- 39:45she looked like she was having a great
- 39:46time out there being
- 39:47extremely friendly and
- 39:48signing autographs.
- 39:50Um,
- 39:51Good to see good for the camp.
- 39:52I mean, that's going to bring more eyes.
- 39:57Yeah.
- 39:58Yeah.
- 39:59I thought it was great.
- 39:59I thought she was a great invite to bring.
- 40:01Um, she did well, she deserved it.
- 40:04Um, and she showed she belonged.
- 40:06Um, but let's go overall top five.
- 40:09Tia took first Laura second,
- 40:11no surprise there.
- 40:13Um,
- 40:14Ariel took third, uh,
- 40:16Alex Kazan took fourth and
- 40:19Brooke Wells took fifth.
- 40:20I think the biggest shocker
- 40:22is that Gabby McGowan
- 40:23finished an eighth and
- 40:25didn't even do the final day.
- 40:27I know.
- 40:27Right.
- 40:29And I think she would have done,
- 40:33I'm curious how she would
- 40:34have done on the pegboard,
- 40:35but I think she would have
- 40:36done pretty good at the handstand walk.
- 40:40Yeah.
- 40:40And I think she would have
- 40:41done well on grace.
- 40:42Yeah.
- 40:45so um I know we're kind of
- 40:48skipping around at this
- 40:49point uh but I did I
- 40:52watched her interview with patrick clark
- 40:56And she did confirm that it
- 40:58is suspected that it is an Achilles.
- 41:01There was a rumor floating
- 41:02around that it wasn't that,
- 41:03that it was actually an ACL.
- 41:05I don't know where people
- 41:06were getting all of their information.
- 41:08Out of her own mouth,
- 41:10ninety nine percent sure
- 41:11that it was an Achilles tear.
- 41:14And she goes to see her
- 41:15doctor this week and she
- 41:17wants to get surgery as
- 41:18quickly as possible.
- 41:21Yeah.
- 41:22And if you didn't see that,
- 41:25It's worth a watch to hear
- 41:26what Gabby says.
- 41:29She talks about that she
- 41:30found a new person.
- 41:32I know.
- 41:32I loved that.
- 41:33And that this person is a
- 41:35badass and that she doesn't
- 41:38even really know who that is yet.
- 41:40Right.
- 41:41Yeah.
- 41:41She's still trying to explore her more.
- 41:45Get to know this new person.
- 41:46Yeah.
- 41:48Right.
- 41:48And it's a shame that she
- 41:50found her and then this happens.
- 41:53Mm-hmm.
- 41:54but she's going to need that
- 41:55bad-ass to get through this rehab.
- 41:58Cause we all know, you know,
- 42:00and I said it this weekend,
- 42:01my friend Chelsea Nicholas
- 42:03did the same injury at the
- 42:04games and it is a long haul.
- 42:08And there are lots of ups
- 42:10and downs throughout this, but, uh,
- 42:19CrossFit says,
- 42:20really hope we get evolved
- 42:21Gabby and not a punctuation
- 42:23mark like Fouché.
- 42:25Well,
- 42:26Fouché was retiring after that season
- 42:28regardless.
- 42:29So whether she injured her Achilles or not,
- 42:32she was going to go into
- 42:34the medical field at that point.
- 42:36So that was going to be a
- 42:39punctuation mark regardless.
- 42:43Any surprises for you this weekend?
- 42:50I thought Haley might finish
- 42:52a little higher than she did.
- 42:53I like the things that tripped her up.
- 42:57I like,
- 42:58I'm surprised that she couldn't get
- 43:00through the pegboard quite honestly.
- 43:04She was too.
- 43:06So she was on the tailgate
- 43:07party and she said that
- 43:10everything she thought she
- 43:11was going to do well in,
- 43:13she did bad in and
- 43:13everything she thought she
- 43:15was going to do bad in, she did well in.
- 43:18And so she goes,
- 43:20I really need to go back
- 43:21and kind of look at things.
- 43:25I mean, yeah,
- 43:26she's clearly put some effort
- 43:28into the strength.
- 43:30But we've always known that
- 43:31about Gabby or about Haley, that her
- 43:35One rep strength just isn't what's there.
- 43:38She's always moved eighty,
- 43:39ninety percent well.
- 43:40She moved the squat snatch as well.
- 43:41That didn't necessarily surprise me.
- 43:44Moved this sandbag well,
- 43:46maybe a little better than.
- 43:47But I mean, you know,
- 43:48she's been working on strength.
- 43:49She's going to be even stronger.
- 43:53I don't know.
- 43:55I don't know that remaking her.
- 43:58And I think this is partly
- 43:59why she never wanted to stray from.
- 44:03continuing to train her strengths.
- 44:06Tristan and I had lots of
- 44:06talks about that.
- 44:07Like I,
- 44:10I'm never going to get super strong.
- 44:12It's just not going to happen.
- 44:13And I'd rather just continue
- 44:14to win the things that I'm going to win.
- 44:21Yeah.
- 44:21I think there's a way to
- 44:22balance that where you don't,
- 44:24but it's gotta be a careful balance.
- 44:27Yeah.
- 44:30So let's go to the men.
- 44:33Um, I didn't really,
- 44:35I guess my surprise would
- 44:38be that I didn't,
- 44:41I wouldn't have guessed Ariel to podium.
- 44:46I even probably wouldn't
- 44:47have had her in my top five.
- 44:50Interesting.
- 44:52And, and it, and it really just comes from,
- 44:54and I,
- 44:56I'm friends with her, but like,
- 44:58I'm not like friends, friends.
- 44:59Right.
- 44:59So I just got a sense after
- 45:01the games that she was a
- 45:02little bit broken.
- 45:03Yeah.
- 45:06And I was worried about her
- 45:07going into rogue.
- 45:09And so I was pleasantly
- 45:11surprised to see that she's not.
- 45:12Yeah.
- 45:15I think she's definitely
- 45:16still got the hung.
- 45:18Like she's a competitor, right?
- 45:19She's going to hit that
- 45:20floor and she's in a compete.
- 45:22If she's in her,
- 45:23she's in an environment
- 45:24she's comfortable in and
- 45:26she's there with several
- 45:28other girls that she really enjoys.
- 45:29Like being there with Danny,
- 45:31I'm sure helped a lot.
- 45:32Right.
- 45:38Right.
- 45:38I think so.
- 45:39I think she just had to get
- 45:40back in that environment and know that,
- 45:42you know,
- 45:43rogue takes care of their
- 45:44athletes and you've heard
- 45:45her speak on barbell spin that like,
- 45:48she felt like a monkey in a
- 45:49circus at the games.
- 45:52And that is not how rogue
- 45:54treats the athletes.
- 45:57So I think it was a great
- 45:58environment to like, get,
- 46:00get your mojo back.
- 46:01Yeah.
- 46:04So let's go to the men's side.
- 46:07Jeff Adler wins convincingly,
- 46:10never really gave up the
- 46:13lead for most of the for the weekend.
- 46:16Brent Fikowski goes out with
- 46:18a bang and a second place
- 46:19finish at Rogue and Jason
- 46:21Hopper podiums in a major
- 46:23competition for the first time.
- 46:29I think that there's some
- 46:30great storylines there.
- 46:32Ricky Gerrard in fourth,
- 46:33Dallin Pepper in fifth.
- 46:35Jay Crouch, he's like Mr. Sixth now,
- 46:38isn't he?
- 46:40Yes.
- 46:41Gee in seventh, Justin Madaris in eighth,
- 46:43Patrick Vellner in ninth,
- 46:44Yonikoski in tenth.
- 46:49I did see that Adler talked
- 46:52after his win and talked about
- 46:56that what happened at the
- 46:57games broke his focus and
- 47:00that's why he walked away
- 47:01yeah and so coming into
- 47:04rogue his focus was to win
- 47:06and he was able to get that
- 47:07focus back again um so
- 47:10which I thought that was cool to hear
- 47:13Again,
- 47:15cool to see Brent go out with a bang.
- 47:18I thought that was awesome.
- 47:20We've talked about it with
- 47:21his retirement this week a little bit,
- 47:24about just the respect we have for him,
- 47:27and glad to see him go out
- 47:28kind of on top.
- 47:30And Hopper,
- 47:31this has got to be huge for his
- 47:33confidence.
- 47:34Yeah.
- 47:34Even though Rogue fits his style better,
- 47:39he's getting better and better.
- 47:40But I did see JR say that he did –
- 47:43By a log muscle-up bar.
- 47:48I thought I saw that somewhere.
- 47:50And was hoping that Jason
- 47:53would use it more.
- 47:55If he doesn't shit the bed on that event,
- 48:00what did he finish?
- 48:00Like, the nineteenth?
- 48:04Yep.
- 48:05Event four, nineteenth.
- 48:07Yep.
- 48:08Yep.
- 48:11Jair's like,
- 48:11it's probably just going to sit there,
- 48:12but there it is.
- 48:15Yeah, he'll work on it.
- 48:17But yeah.
- 48:19I mean, to be fair,
- 48:20Brent had an eighteenth.
- 48:22So the nineteenth versus the eighteenth,
- 48:24was he going to finish any
- 48:26higher than he did?
- 48:28But if it's three years in a row,
- 48:30it's a hole?
- 48:30Well, yeah.
- 48:33I mean, there's no excuse for it, really.
- 48:37Right.
- 48:38So what's your surprise on the men's side?
- 48:40Um, well, I, I'm hearing Pat was sick,
- 48:46but he didn't, I mean,
- 48:46he didn't look like himself.
- 48:48So where he finished was a surprise,
- 48:49but not if he's sick.
- 48:50Um, you're always Matt centric.
- 48:53I love Pat.
- 48:54Um,
- 48:57I sorta thought Chandler would be in
- 48:59the top.
- 49:00It rogue is usually a good event for him.
- 49:05I think.
- 49:08think unfortunately for him
- 49:09the field is just getting
- 49:10so good and moving so well
- 49:12that he can no longer just
- 49:13get away with that like
- 49:14brute strength and moving
- 49:17like you got to start to
- 49:18move really well and what
- 49:20wear and tear has that put
- 49:21on his body I know the
- 49:24years of catching those
- 49:26cleans in odd positions and
- 49:28like it's it's gonna it's
- 49:30gonna do its damage at some
- 49:32point right but other than that
- 49:38There's my surprise right there.
- 49:42What one?
- 49:44Guillemijeros.
- 49:44I mean,
- 49:45he's going to be in top ten at Rogue.
- 49:47That's not really a... But I
- 49:49don't think he was last year.
- 49:54I'm going to say this
- 49:55because he gets dogs so much.
- 49:59He is fun to watch.
- 50:02When it's his thing, he is so good at it.
- 50:10It is like watching perfection.
- 50:18Agreed.
- 50:18I remember when I was a kid
- 50:19watching Ken Griffey Jr.
- 50:21swing the bat.
- 50:23And it was so beautiful
- 50:25because he did it so well.
- 50:28And that's how I look at Guy.
- 50:30He's just naturally made to
- 50:33be good at things.
- 50:36And it is amazing to watch him do that.
- 50:40And he has so much fun out there.
- 50:42He does.
- 50:43He,
- 50:44he has fun to watch when he's last night.
- 50:49He's majestic.
- 50:51Like when he is on,
- 50:52it is majestic to watch.
- 50:57He's like the only person I
- 50:58like to watch snatch.
- 50:59Cause it actually looks good.
- 50:59It, it looks perfect.
- 51:03I know.
- 51:04Like, when he wants to sprint, like,
- 51:09his sprint looks amazing.
- 51:14And if I were to take my
- 51:15head and put it on anybody,
- 51:18it would be his.
- 51:20It used to be Neal Maddox,
- 51:21but Neal's getting a little old.
- 51:22Hmm.
- 51:32CrossFit says,
- 51:33Guy is that Neomatics thing
- 51:35where it doesn't make sense
- 51:36for him not to do all the things well,
- 51:37but he's happier.
- 51:46I mean... Guy's probably
- 51:47making money from sponsors,
- 51:49making his following... When he captures,
- 51:54did a shoot of him at the Tier Cup,
- 51:57and let me...
- 52:00collaborate with him,
- 52:01the amount of followers
- 52:03that Guy has that commented and liked,
- 52:07it is freaking amazing.
- 52:09When you're little peons
- 52:10like us in the social media
- 52:11world and you connect
- 52:12yourself to Guy for a day, like,
- 52:15your social media blows up.
- 52:18Yeah.
- 52:18I think the thing about Guy,
- 52:20whether you're watching him
- 52:21or listening to him or...
- 52:24he, he makes you smile.
- 52:26I don't know that I've ever
- 52:27like watched Guy and not
- 52:29had a smile on my face.
- 52:31Like he just,
- 52:32I don't know if he's just
- 52:34happy and it just permeates in into me,
- 52:36but like,
- 52:37I don't get that from very many
- 52:39other athletes.
- 52:41I can see it in,
- 52:42I can see it in like Ariel.
- 52:43Yeah.
- 52:46But there's other athletes who you just,
- 52:48you,
- 52:48you don't even want to hear them talk.
- 52:50You,
- 52:50you want them to go interview anyone
- 52:52else.
- 52:52Like,
- 52:54That's how I feel about Danny Spiegel.
- 52:55I love to hear her talk.
- 52:57I think she's bubbly.
- 52:58I think she's personable and,
- 53:00but she gets dog too.
- 53:01So, you know,
- 53:02maybe that's just what
- 53:04attracts me to people that
- 53:05I want to hang out with.
- 53:08Um, yeah.
- 53:10Craig says he's a superstar in Brazil.
- 53:13Lynn says Guy is laughing
- 53:14all the way to the bank as
- 53:16others dog him.
- 53:18Vi says I think Guy is
- 53:19really fun to watch and is
- 53:20really just one group that
- 53:22gives him constant shit.
- 53:25Maybe.
- 53:37Noah used to annoy me and now I love Noah.
- 53:41I go back and forth on them.
- 53:43See, I used to really like Noah.
- 53:45There's things now that like
- 53:47start to annoy me.
- 53:49What's funny to me is I
- 53:50interviewed him and I
- 53:51admitted to him that he used to annoy me.
- 53:54And then he just, he goes, I know I,
- 53:57I do that to some people,
- 53:58but I am who I am.
- 53:59And in person, I, I, I do enjoy Noah.
- 54:07yeah um sometimes I just get
- 54:10that cringe when I'm
- 54:11watching him but in I've
- 54:13never had an issue talking
- 54:14to him in person yeah in
- 54:16person he is very fan
- 54:18friendly he will not leave
- 54:19until he signs every
- 54:20autograph takes every
- 54:21picture like the dude is a
- 54:23rock star um and he is
- 54:26really as nice as he is
- 54:29like he is sugar saccharine sweet
- 54:35nice um but yeah did did you
- 54:39uh watch tia's award speech
- 54:43or win speech or however
- 54:44maybe right after the last
- 54:46event which one he is I
- 54:50didn't did you catch the
- 54:53earlier one where she was
- 54:54like said she was the underdog I did yeah
- 55:01She doubled down on that in
- 55:02the second one.
- 55:03I can't even remember
- 55:04explicitly what she said.
- 55:10Great athletes sometimes
- 55:11have to make up stories to
- 55:14motivate themselves.
- 55:16If you watch The Last Dance,
- 55:17Michael Jordan did it all the time.
- 55:21I don't know.
- 55:23He would say that
- 55:25like people tried to poison
- 55:27his pizza in utah and
- 55:28that's why he went out and
- 55:30did what he did the next
- 55:31like everything is a reason
- 55:33for michael jordan yeah I
- 55:36don't know it just I can't
- 55:38I can't remember the word
- 55:39she's in the second one but
- 55:40it was more of a she's
- 55:42saying basically nobody's
- 55:46rooting for her, but like,
- 55:47that's the words she needs to use.
- 55:48Like, you know,
- 55:50the crowd may not be behind me, you know,
- 55:52like, yeah, nobody is rooting for you.
- 55:55Nobody's cheering you on.
- 55:57Definitely not true.
- 55:58Well, there are a lot, but like, that's,
- 56:01I think what she hears is the, like,
- 56:03we're over her winning and
- 56:04we want someone else to win.
- 56:06And it's,
- 56:07but it's not that we don't think
- 56:08you're going to win.
- 56:09We,
- 56:09we definitely think you're going to win.
- 56:10We're sick of it.
- 56:12Well, I think analysts do that,
- 56:14and then she probably hears that.
- 56:15But whenever you're in a
- 56:16live event with her and she
- 56:18comes out on the floor, the place erupts.
- 56:24Well,
- 56:24I'd say probably even more so in the
- 56:27European environment.
- 56:28I'm guessing there's even more.
- 56:29The syndicate crown, it was loud.
- 56:31Now,
- 56:31there are homers in different areas too,
- 56:34right?
- 56:34Like Haley,
- 56:36her people live like an hour
- 56:37away from the syndicate crown,
- 56:39so that distorts kind of
- 56:40the overall thing.
- 56:43But yeah, T is never the underdog.
- 56:46She is the greatest to ever do it.
- 56:48She's the greatest that will
- 56:49ever do it because nobody's
- 56:50going to string together
- 56:51this many championships ever again.
- 56:56It'll just never happen.
- 56:59Yeah, I don't know.
- 57:01Her speeches and Laura's
- 57:03both rubbed me the wrong way.
- 57:10Vi says everyone knew she
- 57:11was going to win.
- 57:12We just also don't care about it.
- 57:15I think Jamie is right.
- 57:16People are a little tired of
- 57:17winning and are ready to
- 57:18root for someone else.
- 57:19I'm not disagreeing with you
- 57:21guys at all because when
- 57:23she wasn't at the games,
- 57:24it was more fun to watch
- 57:26because you didn't know who
- 57:27was going to win.
- 57:28Right.
- 57:29Sports are better when you
- 57:30don't know the outcome.
- 57:32Right.
- 57:33Like sports are not fun for
- 57:35me because my bears are
- 57:36going to lose every week
- 57:37and I already know it
- 57:37before the game happens.
- 57:41Tia enters an event,
- 57:42you know she's going to win.
- 57:44Unless she's five months
- 57:45postpartum and she takes second.
- 57:56Bruce says she makes comps so boring.
- 57:59Craig says,
- 58:00where do you think Emma Lawson
- 58:01and Alexis would have
- 58:02placed if they participated at Rogue?
- 58:05I have no idea.
- 58:07And I don't think Rogue is
- 58:08really ideal for either one of them.
- 58:10No,
- 58:11but I actually think Alexis would have
- 58:13done pretty well.
- 58:19She's not far off from Ariel
- 58:20and Alex Kazan.
- 58:23You're going to find her in that tier.
- 58:25So she's going to probably
- 58:26be right there in the top five.
- 58:30I think that they're both
- 58:31stronger than she is.
- 58:32Raw strength.
- 58:37and uh alexis is not great
- 58:40with a sandbag she's great
- 58:42at a sandbag now she spent
- 58:44an entire year doing all
- 58:45sandbag everything where
- 58:47did we see the proof well
- 58:51it's too bad she wasn't
- 58:51here because I actually
- 58:52think she would have done
- 58:53great if you listen test
- 58:58this workout and upload it
- 59:00so that we can prove scott
- 59:01wrong because I believe in you girl
- 59:04uh lynn says I also think
- 59:06media has a place to play
- 59:08in that like with everyone
- 59:09saying they're sick of her
- 59:10winning in other sports
- 59:11she'd be getting a runway
- 59:13walk and that is just sad
- 59:15for crossfit I don't think
- 59:17that's true true completely
- 59:19lynn other sports hate the
- 59:21winners too like I couldn't
- 59:23stand tom brady I didn't
- 59:24want to see him win another
- 59:25super bowl I wanted someone
- 59:27else to win a super bowl
- 59:32I didn't like the Golden
- 59:33State Warriors when they
- 59:34were winning a bunch.
- 59:37I like when you don't know the outcome.
- 59:40But I do believe that you're right,
- 59:42that that does contribute
- 59:43then to her thinking she's
- 59:46an underdog because
- 59:47everybody's rooting for other people.
- 59:50Yeah, those two are not synonymous.
- 59:53She needs to rethink how she states that.
- 59:59She's not the underdog.
- 1:00:05It's zero to ten end of the first quarter.
- 1:00:07Not good.
- 1:00:08What's going on?
- 1:00:09Lana, are you watching?
- 1:00:11Lions are losing.
- 1:00:12They are.
- 1:00:24Again,
- 1:00:24CrossFit kind of echoes my sentiments.
- 1:00:38Okay.
- 1:00:40Back to the notes.
- 1:00:41We'll stop sharing.
- 1:00:45All right.
- 1:00:45Um, uh,
- 1:00:48our very own Carolyn Prevo got to
- 1:00:49be on the desk show on the
- 1:00:51tailgate party.
- 1:00:52How was it?
- 1:00:52I think she was there at
- 1:00:53least three times.
- 1:00:56It was awesome seeing her.
- 1:00:59I thought she did great.
- 1:01:02The first day I could tell
- 1:01:02she was a little nervous
- 1:01:03right off the bat,
- 1:01:06but those nerves went away
- 1:01:06and she got into a, uh,
- 1:01:09into a groove.
- 1:01:10So, uh, that was pretty cool.
- 1:01:14I also think the premium
- 1:01:16package is well worth the money.
- 1:01:19Um, I really enjoyed it.
- 1:01:21This morning, the, the desk had the,
- 1:01:24on the tailgate party had
- 1:01:26me laughing so hard when
- 1:01:29events aren't always super
- 1:01:31exciting and you get, um,
- 1:01:36and you get storytelling
- 1:01:38from like any Thor's daughter,
- 1:01:40Josh bridges, China Cho.
- 1:01:43It was really, really good.
- 1:01:45And, um, this morning was awesome.
- 1:01:49The, the play between Josh and Annie,
- 1:01:52like Josh said, Annie, how tall are you?
- 1:01:55And Annie goes, I don't know.
- 1:01:56How short are you?
- 1:01:59Like that's the stuff that happens.
- 1:02:01And then, um,
- 1:02:03they brought out Scottish
- 1:02:04foods for them to try and
- 1:02:07they all ended up loving haggis.
- 1:02:09Wow.
- 1:02:10And, and Pat Sherwood's like,
- 1:02:12I have become a huge haggis fan.
- 1:02:15And, um,
- 1:02:17this is the best thing I've had in
- 1:02:19Scotland.
- 1:02:20Like the best part of my
- 1:02:21experience has been haggis.
- 1:02:22Interesting.
- 1:02:23Like Pat,
- 1:02:24you'll never look at a sheep the
- 1:02:26same way again.
- 1:02:26That's funny.
- 1:02:32So they were, they were really,
- 1:02:34really funny.
- 1:02:35Um, and it was, uh, it was,
- 1:02:38it was really fun to watch.
- 1:02:40Um,
- 1:02:41half Thor was on this morning and Josh
- 1:02:44said about him that man,
- 1:02:45that guy's so big.
- 1:02:46I sit there and think to myself,
- 1:02:48this man is just letting me live.
- 1:02:54But they were actually
- 1:02:55drinking whiskey this morning too,
- 1:02:58because that was one of the
- 1:02:59sponsors of the tailgate party.
- 1:03:01Oh my gosh.
- 1:03:03So it was, it was pretty crazy.
- 1:03:15lots of lions talk.
- 1:03:17And then we have Bruce keep
- 1:03:19springing up this rumor
- 1:03:20that none of us know about.
- 1:03:22And I, and I do not,
- 1:03:24I will not believe it.
- 1:03:26I would be shocked as well.
- 1:03:28Like, so Bruce is saying,
- 1:03:33or bringing up the rumor
- 1:03:33that leaving for proven.
- 1:03:35Yeah.
- 1:03:36I mean,
- 1:03:36the only thing I can think is like
- 1:03:38people saying people are
- 1:03:39hanging out with other people.
- 1:03:40I can see him hanging out
- 1:03:43with Jay Crouch and,
- 1:03:45just cause he's, you know, like, I don't,
- 1:03:50but that,
- 1:03:51I don't think that necessarily
- 1:03:52means he wants to go train with him.
- 1:03:56Tristan agrees.
- 1:03:57Ricky leaving seems thin.
- 1:03:59I, I would be surprised.
- 1:04:01And I, to man,
- 1:04:05to do that to someone like
- 1:04:06Kotler took him under his
- 1:04:07wing when nobody wanted to
- 1:04:08take him on man.
- 1:04:09I, yeah, I was just going to say that, um,
- 1:04:15I know the place that the
- 1:04:20risk that Justin took taking him on,
- 1:04:23coming back from suspension,
- 1:04:25was a huge one.
- 1:04:27And the fact that he did
- 1:04:29that and supported Ricky
- 1:04:30through that time, if Ricky walks away,
- 1:04:33I lose a ton of respect.
- 1:04:35I agree with that.
- 1:04:42But I'm a loyalty guy.
- 1:04:46Uh, I'm like loyalty to a fault.
- 1:04:55Guess we'll find out.
- 1:04:57I don't where they said,
- 1:05:00pretty much firmly said it.
- 1:05:03Um, CrossFit says, CrossFit says,
- 1:05:07I think he saw the pro
- 1:05:08athlete aspects of proven
- 1:05:10the small precision
- 1:05:11percentage changes he can make.
- 1:05:15Or go get hurt because, I mean,
- 1:05:17they ruined.
- 1:05:17Who's proving the changes are good?
- 1:05:20Yeah.
- 1:05:20I mean, they ruined.
- 1:05:22Other than Tia,
- 1:05:24Jay Crouch made his jump
- 1:05:25before he joined Proven.
- 1:05:29So, like, I don't know.
- 1:05:33Because, I mean, Brooke moved on.
- 1:05:35Was it Spencer Saxon that
- 1:05:36was there and moved on?
- 1:05:38Both got her under under them.
- 1:05:43I, again,
- 1:05:45I will lose a lot of respect for
- 1:05:46Ricky if he leaves.
- 1:05:48Totally.
- 1:05:50Uh, yeah, that's true.
- 1:05:53Uh,
- 1:05:54such a loyalty guy hasn't fired
- 1:05:55Eberfluss yet.
- 1:05:56That is correct.
- 1:05:57See, should have fired him last year,
- 1:06:00but I'm too loyal.
- 1:06:02Dang it.
- 1:06:03You guys are commenting too fast.
- 1:06:07Uh, you say Maddie's dirt.
- 1:06:09She's,
- 1:06:09but she's going to work out with Jay
- 1:06:11regardless.
- 1:06:11Yeah.
- 1:06:11Right.
- 1:06:12And that alone is going to help her Excel.
- 1:06:17Merton's joined proven and
- 1:06:18then didn't make the games.
- 1:06:22And I love Joey tutor.
- 1:06:30So I don't, I don't think that, um,
- 1:06:37Yeah.
- 1:06:38Colton makes the games, joins Proven,
- 1:06:41doesn't make the games.
- 1:06:43There's more evidence to the contrary.
- 1:06:44And the way people join Proven,
- 1:06:47like a month before the
- 1:06:49semifinals or a month before the games,
- 1:06:52makes it hard to know what
- 1:06:56effect was made where, when, and how.
- 1:06:58But I don't disagree that
- 1:07:01that was a semifinals programming issue.
- 1:07:04I got all kinds of programming issues.
- 1:07:13Yeah.
- 1:07:14That's the problem with Colton, though.
- 1:07:15Things are either going to
- 1:07:16be... He's just... He is at
- 1:07:23a disadvantage.
- 1:07:29Yeah.
- 1:07:29He just... He's at an extreme... He is.
- 1:07:31He cannot change that.
- 1:07:32Right.
- 1:07:33He's either at an extreme advantage,
- 1:07:35and you can't just program
- 1:07:35everything that's going to suit him.
- 1:07:38Right.
- 1:07:39So...
- 1:07:44Anyway.
- 1:07:47Yes,
- 1:07:47I agree when he's an anthropomorphic
- 1:07:49outlier.
- 1:07:49Yeah, the ascension at underdogs,
- 1:07:52I'd say Alex Kazan.
- 1:07:58Ricky when healthy has
- 1:07:59finished second at the games.
- 1:08:10Up underdogs has a bunch of
- 1:08:12Australian athletes.
- 1:08:20I mean, what's that?
- 1:08:23He still has Brian, right?
- 1:08:24Yeah.
- 1:08:25But I know Benny Gerard
- 1:08:26works with Justin too and
- 1:08:30helps him coach in Australia.
- 1:08:34So it just,
- 1:08:34there's a lot of things that
- 1:08:35just don't make sense.
- 1:08:42Yeah.
- 1:08:42I don't know.
- 1:08:43Anyway.
- 1:08:47We'll move on.
- 1:08:49I don't want that to be true.
- 1:08:52Don't put it in the ether.
- 1:08:57We had the injuries.
- 1:08:58We talked about Gabby already.
- 1:09:01Heinrich confirmed his on
- 1:09:03Instagram that it looked
- 1:09:05like his was a rupture again.
- 1:09:06Of course, they have not had their scans.
- 1:09:11Gabby even said when they felt down there,
- 1:09:12there wasn't an Achilles.
- 1:09:15They're pretty sure it's ruptured.
- 1:09:17Right.
- 1:09:18So, um, Heinrich said the same thing.
- 1:09:20Looks like an Achilles rupture.
- 1:09:23He was heading,
- 1:09:23heading back to Finland to get, um,
- 1:09:25all that stuff started for him as well.
- 1:09:30Uh, and we talked about Emma tall, right?
- 1:09:33When?
- 1:09:33Yeah.
- 1:09:34Yep.
- 1:09:37Um,
- 1:09:38so then I thought the venue looked
- 1:09:40awesome.
- 1:09:42I agree.
- 1:09:43I think the turf inside was great.
- 1:09:48and really allowed for like
- 1:09:49the sled pushes and
- 1:09:51different things like that to happen.
- 1:09:54I thought it was pretty, pretty cool.
- 1:10:00And then my last question to
- 1:10:04you about Rogue is after seeing it,
- 1:10:06who do you think is poised
- 1:10:07to make like a good jump
- 1:10:12back into a good season next year?
- 1:10:20I mean,
- 1:10:21I feel like it's tough to say Jason
- 1:10:27because he lets you down at
- 1:10:28the game sometimes.
- 1:10:30But I mean,
- 1:10:31this has got to give Jason a
- 1:10:32little bit more confidence
- 1:10:35moving into the season.
- 1:10:36He's making the right
- 1:10:39changes moving back home.
- 1:10:43I expect him to only continue to improve.
- 1:10:47Dillon, I'm excited for Dillon.
- 1:10:49He had a couple letdowns here.
- 1:10:50And then, I don't know.
- 1:11:00Jay,
- 1:11:01I think Jay is in a... So I'm going to
- 1:11:04go out of the box.
- 1:11:07I was impressed with Amanda Barnhart.
- 1:11:13After having the shoulder injury,
- 1:11:19going through all that rehab,
- 1:11:21doing what I thought she's
- 1:11:24actually starting to look
- 1:11:24like herself again.
- 1:11:25Agreed.
- 1:11:26And actually,
- 1:11:27I think while the shoulder
- 1:11:28injury was happening,
- 1:11:29she did more monostructural stuff.
- 1:11:33And I thought she actually
- 1:11:34looked better on the runs
- 1:11:37and those types of things.
- 1:11:39She's never going to win those events,
- 1:11:40right?
- 1:11:41No.
- 1:11:42But I thought she did better
- 1:11:43than she had in the past.
- 1:11:46And I think that it would be
- 1:11:47cool to see her make a
- 1:11:48comeback next year.
- 1:11:55Maybe I'm just rooting for my Ohio girl.
- 1:11:57I mean, I think Emma get her healthy.
- 1:12:01I'm a tall.
- 1:12:02Oh yeah.
- 1:12:03Yeah.
- 1:12:03Like, and in Brooke, Brooke looks,
- 1:12:07I Brooke looks great to me.
- 1:12:09Like she's clearly healed
- 1:12:11from her shoulder.
- 1:12:13Craig, she was never talked about.
- 1:12:15That's why you come to us.
- 1:12:17Those things that other people don't,
- 1:12:23but she,
- 1:12:23she never was like at the very
- 1:12:25bottom of anything.
- 1:12:27She,
- 1:12:27she kind of middled a lot and I don't
- 1:12:30think her strength is back.
- 1:12:31I think because of that shoulder,
- 1:12:32her strength is not where it was,
- 1:12:35which was elite.
- 1:12:36Right.
- 1:12:38And if her other stuff has
- 1:12:39gotten better because of it,
- 1:12:41It'd be cool to see where
- 1:12:42she's going to be next year.
- 1:12:46It's weird that her and
- 1:12:47Haley finished right next to each other.
- 1:12:50Alex, Brooke, Emma,
- 1:12:51if she can get healthy.
- 1:12:54I saw Lynn say Emma Tall.
- 1:13:00Emma McQuaid, yeah, I don't know.
- 1:13:03She obviously wasn't talked
- 1:13:04about really at all.
- 1:13:05You didn't get to see much of her.
- 1:13:06Oh, she finished dead last, too.
- 1:13:08Yeah, I know.
- 1:13:08Yeah, like...
- 1:13:10She's been dealing with a lot of injuries.
- 1:13:12Okay.
- 1:13:14When I talked to her before the games,
- 1:13:18she had like bad vertigo
- 1:13:22and was dealing with a neck issue.
- 1:13:25And she was only starting to
- 1:13:28be able to do movements
- 1:13:29right before the games.
- 1:13:33I, at some point,
- 1:13:34like you look at risk
- 1:13:36reward with injuries, right?
- 1:13:37Like,
- 1:13:38do I keep pushing through all this
- 1:13:39stuff or is it just time to stop?
- 1:13:42And, but I don't,
- 1:13:44I think she wanted to do rogue in her,
- 1:13:46in kind of her home area.
- 1:13:50Yeah.
- 1:13:52And I'm glad she got the
- 1:13:54chance to do that because she,
- 1:13:56she's a really cool lady.
- 1:14:00Maddie Sturt did great.
- 1:14:01She did.
- 1:14:02I see a lot of those in here, too.
- 1:14:04And then Bruce, the naysayer.
- 1:14:06Should Pat retire?
- 1:14:08No, he was sick.
- 1:14:09He was sick.
- 1:14:12I mean,
- 1:14:12day three would not have been that
- 1:14:13bad for him in any other situation.
- 1:14:17Yeah.
- 1:14:25Yeah,
- 1:14:27the Sarah Stig story is one of my
- 1:14:29least favorite things in the world.
- 1:14:30I love that woman.
- 1:14:32She's always been awesome to us.
- 1:14:37But I think that Emma is
- 1:14:38kind of heading down that
- 1:14:39path where maybe the
- 1:14:41injuries are just mounting up too much.
- 1:14:47Yeah.
- 1:14:49So, well,
- 1:14:50we want to get Jamie to the Lions
- 1:14:52game as quickly as possible.
- 1:14:54Did they score?
- 1:14:55They scored,
- 1:14:56but Houston just got a field goal.
- 1:14:58So it's seven to thirteen.
- 1:15:01Okay.
- 1:15:05And I swear, Vellner was made for burpees.
- 1:15:07His speed when the change was made.
- 1:15:10Jesus.
- 1:15:15What about he's going to be?
- 1:15:18Yeah.
- 1:15:20And we're here for it.
- 1:15:22Yeah.
- 1:15:23I love the guy we have.
- 1:15:26He doesn't need to be anybody else.
- 1:15:29So just so you know,
- 1:15:30another event was going on
- 1:15:31this weekend in Arizona
- 1:15:34called the Desert City Classic.
- 1:15:36And it featured a lot of the
- 1:15:38athletes that are our
- 1:15:40traditional semifinal
- 1:15:41athletes that this show
- 1:15:42likes to follow and talk about.
- 1:15:45And so we just wanted to go
- 1:15:46down through the leaderboard.
- 1:15:48It was held at the same
- 1:15:49place where Legends was
- 1:15:50held last year at Arizona
- 1:15:52State University,
- 1:15:53which is a beautiful
- 1:15:54facility with a connected
- 1:15:57outdoor Olympic swimming
- 1:15:58pool as well as two floors.
- 1:16:02But they did not stream.
- 1:16:06Yes, WOD Gods was on this weekend too.
- 1:16:09So I'm going to pull up.
- 1:16:14I did screenshots of their
- 1:16:16leaderboard because it was
- 1:16:17not running fast today um
- 1:16:21so here is what we have for
- 1:16:24the women's side uh zoe
- 1:16:26warren took the victory at
- 1:16:28desert city classic howdy kenyo
- 1:16:32An Ascend athlete took second.
- 1:16:35Hannah Black took third,
- 1:16:36also a friend of the show.

- 1:16:51Elisa Shower took eighth.
- 1:16:53Rochelle Hudson, ninth.
- 1:16:55And Kyla Romero took tenth.
- 1:16:58And they were very active on social media.
- 1:17:02So if you follow them on IG,
- 1:17:04you'll get to see a lot of
- 1:17:07content from the weekend.
- 1:17:13And Lynn reminds us of
- 1:17:14Beetlejuice Extravaganza in
- 1:17:15Latin America with Tola, Lena,
- 1:17:17and Oscar M from Proven.
- 1:17:22Haley was impressive.
- 1:17:24Is that Haley Canthag?
- 1:17:25She's young.
- 1:17:28That's the name I did not recognize.
- 1:17:30Like just coming out of the teen bracket.
- 1:17:34See if Tristan knows.
- 1:17:37On the men's side,
- 1:17:39another friend of the show, Max Krieg.
- 1:17:43John Wood took second.
- 1:17:45John and Zoe are a couple.
- 1:17:47Yep.
- 1:17:48And CJ Gerald, another friend of the show,
- 1:17:51took third.
- 1:17:53Brandon Smith, fourth.
- 1:17:54Matt Brady, friend of the show,
- 1:17:55took fifth.
- 1:17:57Jace Brooks, sixth.
- 1:17:58Anthony Yim, seventh.
- 1:17:59Tristan Harrison, friend of the show,
- 1:18:01took eighth.
- 1:18:02And Kale Taylor, participant.
- 1:18:04Brandon Freebury took ninth.
- 1:18:07And Adam McAdams took tenth.
- 1:18:12Uh,
- 1:18:12and so Haley was impressive according
- 1:18:14to Tristan and she is young
- 1:18:17and raw and so sneaky.
- 1:18:19Good.
- 1:18:21I'm pretty sure Mark thick boy, uh,
- 1:18:24sort of works with her.
- 1:18:31Has max rested since CrossFit masters, uh,
- 1:18:36max who Lynn max Krieg is not a master.
- 1:18:39Max is young.
- 1:18:43I'm not sure who.
- 1:18:46He is a naval dive captain or something.
- 1:18:54Yeah.
- 1:18:55I don't think anyone in that
- 1:18:56list is over thirty.
- 1:19:02Yeah.
- 1:19:03Two.
- 1:19:03I don't know.
- 1:19:05Yeah, I don't think so either.
- 1:19:10I'd say I think John might
- 1:19:11be the oldest one.
- 1:19:12I don't know.
- 1:19:14Sometimes,
- 1:19:15so Max is being coached by Lynn
- 1:19:17Berger as well.
- 1:19:20And so maybe that's the
- 1:19:21confusion because she
- 1:19:23typically coaches her
- 1:19:24husband and other Masters athletes.
- 1:19:26He did do Crash.
- 1:19:32But before that, I mean, I don't know.
- 1:19:39So congrats to all those athletes.
- 1:19:42I wish that, you know,
- 1:19:44we talked about it last week,
- 1:19:45like something that CrossFit
- 1:19:48needs to do to grow, and that is stream,
- 1:19:51stream, stream.
- 1:19:53We are a grassroots sport,
- 1:19:56and it doesn't matter if
- 1:19:57it's down and dirty
- 1:19:59streaming or elaborate streaming.
- 1:20:01Everything just needs to be streamed.
- 1:20:03We just need to see what's
- 1:20:06going on at these
- 1:20:08competitions so we can talk
- 1:20:09about them and report on them.
- 1:20:13But, yeah, I wish they would do that.
- 1:20:21Is something exciting
- 1:20:21happening in the game?
- 1:20:25They almost just called an interception.
- 1:20:27I can't, I just hearing screaming.
- 1:20:33We lost the ball.
- 1:20:34Not good.
- 1:20:35Okay.
- 1:20:40But I love supporting those
- 1:20:41athletes that work really hard.
- 1:20:44And I know that there's been
- 1:20:46high praise for that Desert
- 1:20:47City Classic where the
- 1:20:49programming was done by Scott Pancheck.
- 1:20:51So I'm interested to take a
- 1:20:56look at the workouts to see
- 1:20:57what his programming looks like.
- 1:21:00How was it, Tristan?
- 1:21:04Did you like the workouts?
- 1:21:09He's talking about being a Detroit fan,
- 1:21:10so I'm not going to.
- 1:21:12Buddy.
- 1:21:16He is a good coach.
- 1:21:20Overall.
- 1:21:21Yeah.
- 1:21:22Yeah.
- 1:21:22I want to look at them.
- 1:21:26Do we know how wide guards ended up?
- 1:21:28Anything over there?
- 1:21:29Did Bryson win?
- 1:21:32I don't know.
- 1:21:34A little run heavy.
- 1:21:35Dang, I should have went.
- 1:21:39know what I want I want to
- 1:21:40go back and go to that
- 1:21:42airbnb we were in and be
- 1:21:45able to use the pool yeah
- 1:21:49agree that's what I want to
- 1:21:50do um so so yeah we'll look
- 1:22:03at those we'll talk about
- 1:22:04some stuff um if you if
- 1:22:05there's anything you want to talk about
- 1:22:08throw it in the chat,
- 1:22:09throw it in the comments,
- 1:22:11as we're kind of hitting
- 1:22:13kind of a doldrum area of the season.
- 1:22:17Who knows?
- 1:22:21Maybe some CrossFit news will come out by,
- 1:22:23like,
- 1:22:24people changing training camps or
- 1:22:28whatever.
- 1:22:29But every time I think it's
- 1:22:31going to be slow,
- 1:22:32we have two pages full of
- 1:22:34notes to talk about.
- 1:22:35Great.
- 1:22:37I didn't know Jacob Marlow was at Wodgods.
- 1:22:41For some reason, I was thinking.
- 1:22:42So he says Casey Strong was first,
- 1:22:45Jacob second, Lydia Fish was first,
- 1:22:49and Cody Vittetto was second.
- 1:22:51I love Cody Vittetto.
- 1:22:54She is the one that owns a
- 1:22:55coffee shop in Houston that
- 1:22:57they make the cereal milk lattes.
- 1:23:03These are the weird facts I
- 1:23:04know about people because I
- 1:23:05interview them before semifinals.
- 1:23:10Jacob went one, one, one, six,
- 1:23:14four at WOD gods.
- 1:23:15And when we say Jacob,
- 1:23:16we mean Jacob Marlowe.
- 1:23:18Yes.
- 1:23:20Nice.
- 1:23:23Lydia has been competing like crazy.
- 1:23:26Yeah.
- 1:23:28She just needs experience.
- 1:23:32Yeah,
- 1:23:33it's not necessarily a bad thing as
- 1:23:34long as you can stay healthy through it.
- 1:23:36Yeah, Vi asks, she says,
- 1:23:38this may be a silly question,
- 1:23:39but is there a central
- 1:23:40location that houses all
- 1:23:41CrossFit competitions?
- 1:23:42Like,
- 1:23:43can you search a database for fitness
- 1:23:45competitions near me?
- 1:23:46I don't know of anything like that.
- 1:23:49I know that Morning Chalk Up
- 1:23:50used to put everything they
- 1:23:51know at the very end of their email,
- 1:23:54the daily email.
- 1:23:58And I think Lynn has a great point.
- 1:24:00If they're a competition corner,
- 1:24:03You go in there and see the list,
- 1:24:04but it is the worst.
- 1:24:06Yeah.
- 1:24:08It's database searching.
- 1:24:09And not everything's on
- 1:24:12Captive Street Corner.
- 1:24:13Some go to the strongest
- 1:24:15compete or whatever.
- 1:24:16Desert City was with Stream Fit.
- 1:24:17Yeah.
- 1:24:22Crash was local comps.
- 1:24:23That's the other one I couldn't think of.
- 1:24:31So yeah, that's all I really know.
- 1:24:35Yeah.
- 1:24:38But with that, it's been a fun night.
- 1:24:42We'll try to pop on with
- 1:24:43Carolyn and just get some,
- 1:24:45do like a short show with
- 1:24:48what her experience was like in Scotland.
- 1:24:52I know she's going to have
- 1:24:52to catch up with her job
- 1:24:55when she gets back as well.
- 1:24:58But maybe she tried some
- 1:24:59haggis and we can find out
- 1:25:00what that was like.
- 1:25:03I don't think I could ever do it.
- 1:25:04Could you try it?
- 1:25:04I'd try, try it.
- 1:25:12Um, yeah, I don't know.
- 1:25:15I probably could once, once.
- 1:25:21Yeah.
- 1:25:22All right.
- 1:25:23With that guys, it's been a blast.
- 1:25:25Don't forget to like, and subscribe,
- 1:25:27hit that notifier.
