- 4:29We better,
- 4:29we better give them some TV talk.
- 4:31They're looking for it every week.
- 4:34Oh, gosh.
- 4:35Ken started Shogun on FX.
- 4:38I have not seen it.
- 4:40I started Tracker.
- 4:42Well, we started Tracker watching that,
- 4:44but what was the one we
- 4:46started last night?
- 4:49What's that called?
- 4:50The Tourist.
- 4:53Have you seen that one?
- 4:55Uh-uh.
- 4:56Oh, it's like,
- 4:58so I think it's just started
- 4:59at second season.
- 5:00So we're, we just started the first season,
- 5:03which was out last year and
- 5:04he gets in a car accident.
- 5:06I think it's over in like
- 5:07Australia and he's full,
- 5:10fully amnesia has no idea,
- 5:11but like somebody's trying to kill him.
- 5:13So he's like,
- 5:13you're trying to figure out
- 5:14who he is and why they're
- 5:15trying to kill him.
- 5:17I think I did see this.
- 5:18Okay.
- 5:19Yeah.
- 5:20I think Julie binged it and
- 5:22I just kind of caught pieces of it.
- 5:24Okay.
- 5:26We're only two episodes in,
- 5:27so I have no idea.
- 5:29Um, my, so the shows have come back.
- 5:34So my big, I love Will Trent.
- 5:37Have you seen Will Trent?
- 5:41Uh, think a cooler monk.
- 5:45Oh, okay.
- 5:46I liked monk.
- 5:47That was a good show.
- 5:47Like a guy who sees a crime
- 5:49scene can kind of picture
- 5:50it all reenact the crime in his head.
- 5:52Um,
- 5:55very very cool that so I'm
- 5:57glad that's back but like
- 5:59what's annoying me is the
- 6:00networks are bringing back
- 6:02like two episodes and then
- 6:03we're taking a three-week
- 6:04break and then we're like
- 6:06you were off all fall from
- 6:07the writer's strike why
- 6:08can't we go straight
- 6:09through now right um and
- 6:12then my my guilty pleasure
- 6:15is deal or no deal island
- 6:19I haven't watched it yet, but yeah, I mean,
- 6:20back when deal or no deal first came out,
- 6:23I watched it.
- 6:24So yeah.
- 6:24So now it's a competition to
- 6:26compete for the suitcases
- 6:29to put on the board at the
- 6:30end of the show.
- 6:31Okay.
- 6:32So you're trying to get the
- 6:32highest amounts to go on the board.
- 6:34Okay.
- 6:36The person who brings back
- 6:37the lowest amount is like
- 6:40they go into the,
- 6:42like they can be eliminated.
- 6:45The person with the highest
- 6:45case gets to pick of two who goes in.
- 6:48Then they have to play the classic game.
- 6:50And if they beat the dealer,
- 6:52they get to stay and pick
- 6:53somebody else to go home.
- 6:55If they don't beat the dealer,
- 6:56they go home.
- 6:58And then all the money they
- 7:00earn goes into the final
- 7:01case at the final kind of thing.
- 7:07So it's like deal or no deal
- 7:08combined with the challenge?
- 7:11Sure.
- 7:12Yeah.
- 7:13Okay.
- 7:15Sounds good.
- 7:19Carolyn's got no time for that.
- 7:21She's working a full-time job.
- 7:22She's a professional athlete.
- 7:24I don't watch many shows, to be honest.
- 7:27I watch live sports a lot
- 7:31and listen to podcasts.
- 7:34So that's the tough part right now is...
- 7:37One,
- 7:37the podcast world has been slow this
- 7:39week.
- 7:40Two,
- 7:41there's no sports unless you're into
- 7:42hockey or the NBA.
- 7:46And my NBA team always loses
- 7:49players towards the end of the season,
- 7:52and we're never competitive.
- 7:53So then I lose interest there.
- 7:55So I don't know.
- 8:00You guys, this is not a deadlift workout.
- 8:03It is not.
- 8:04We'll get there, Sarah.
- 8:05We'll get there.
- 8:07Yeah.
- 8:09So, so you get live sports.
- 8:12I do like my penguins, but I'm re I,
- 8:15and the playoffs are coming.
- 8:16Once the playoffs are coming out,
- 8:17I'll be all in.
- 8:21Mayhem podcast was off the
- 8:23rails and we were just
- 8:24laughing the whole time.
- 8:25I don't know if anyone else
- 8:27watched that one.
- 8:30I w I watched it as I went
- 8:31to bed and I fell asleep.
- 8:34It was hilarious.
- 8:39So what sports are you watching, Carolyn?
- 8:42Women's college basketball.
- 8:44Caitlin Clark a lot.
- 8:46Oh, yeah.
- 8:46USC team a lot.
- 8:47South Carolina.
- 8:50Watch a lot of PWHL.
- 8:52So the new professional
- 8:53women's hockey league.
- 8:55Some NBA.
- 8:58Rarely at NHL, to be honest.
- 9:00Mostly women's sports.
- 9:01Just because I have a lot of
- 9:03ties with especially the hockey.
- 9:05So I haven't really missed
- 9:06many of the games.
- 9:06I'll watch all of them.
- 9:08So let me ask you this.
- 9:10Caitlin Clark is going to be
- 9:12the number one pick in the WNBA.
- 9:15And they're already talking
- 9:16about like the deals that
- 9:18she's making connected with
- 9:20the city she's going to go
- 9:21to because she's going to
- 9:23be the number one pick.
- 9:24And she hasn't even finished college yet.
- 9:27Like that's insanity to me.
- 9:30what I liked was I was
- 9:31watching first take the
- 9:33other day and like Shannon
- 9:36Sharp was saying,
- 9:38who's one of the hosts for ESPN.
- 9:42He was like,
- 9:42I can't even name five college
- 9:45men basketball players right now,
- 9:46but I can name five women.
- 9:48And,
- 9:49That's never happened.
- 9:51The amount of hype that
- 9:54she's brought to the
- 9:55women's game and a lot of
- 9:56other players at the college level,
- 9:58we're talking about a lot
- 9:59more women's college
- 10:02basketball than the men's
- 10:04college basketball.
- 10:05The March Madness is coming up,
- 10:07and I feel like I'm way
- 10:09more invested in the
- 10:11women's bracket now than the men's.
- 10:15I got sucked in.
- 10:15She was here in Columbus a
- 10:17couple weeks ago.
- 10:18And Ohio State upset Iowa.
- 10:21But it was such a good game.
- 10:25I found it more exciting
- 10:27than the men's game.
- 10:29More passing, more plays run.
- 10:33And she's such a threat all the time.
- 10:36You can never put your guard down.
- 10:39No.
- 10:39No.
- 10:43so yeah it's she's something
- 10:46else because and they were
- 10:47saying like she's selling
- 10:48out arenas everywhere she
- 10:49goes every single arena
- 10:51it's sold out and that
- 10:53school may never have had a
- 10:54sellout ever and she shows
- 10:56up and they sell out the
- 10:56arena it's crazy yeah it's
- 11:01gonna be and then I wonder
- 11:02what she's gonna do for the
- 11:03wnba I hope she can
- 11:06continue to be good because I would then
- 11:09bring a lot more eyes to the WNBA,
- 11:12which then could expand
- 11:13maybe in for a Toronto team.
- 11:14I would love to have.
- 11:17Yeah.
- 11:18I, um, she's a shooter, right?
- 11:21So she's going to be fine.
- 11:22Like shoot or shoot.
- 11:23And it doesn't change from a
- 11:26little cold this year,
- 11:28but he's a shooter.
- 11:30Yeah.
- 11:32They can hot streak sleeve coming up.
- 11:38All right, well,
- 11:40I guess we'll finish up 24.1.
- 11:42I announced that Jamie
- 11:44finished eighth in the
- 11:44world in her division,
- 11:47and you finished 15th in
- 11:49the world overall.
- 11:53I know you said you were
- 11:54hoping for top five, but man,
- 11:57the scores were close.
- 11:59Very close.
- 12:00Yeah, within a couple seconds.
- 12:02Yeah.
- 12:03Yeah, I thought I – I mean,
- 12:05I gave it everything I had.
- 12:06I think a few – like the couple seconds,
- 12:10I think it comes down to
- 12:12how fast you're dropping.
- 12:13Like I was taking maybe a
- 12:14little bit too much time to
- 12:15make sure the dumbbell is
- 12:16flat so that it wasn't
- 12:17rolling as I'm coming down.
- 12:19So, like, those little seconds count.
- 12:21And then the dumbbell speed,
- 12:23like the dumbbell snatch speed,
- 12:25I think is where –
- 12:27you can lose maybe a little bit of time.
- 12:29It's like, how,
- 12:30how fast do you want to
- 12:31push the line of a good rep?
- 12:33And then like,
- 12:35like I felt like a lot of
- 12:37people were a little bit in
- 12:38front from what I've seen.
- 12:39And like,
- 12:40they didn't even ask for my video
- 12:41this year.
- 12:42And I've always had my
- 12:44videos asked for anytime I
- 12:45was in the top 40,
- 12:47top 50 worldwide in an open workout.
- 12:48I've always sent my video.
- 12:51So I'm like,
- 12:51did they even review anyone
- 12:52that's in front of me?
- 12:53I have no idea.
- 12:53They've obviously reviewed the winners,
- 12:56but like,
- 12:58why wasn't my video sent?
- 12:59Like,
- 12:59why isn't someone looking at my video?
- 13:01I trust my movements.
- 13:03I've looked back on it, but like,
- 13:05I should have my video sent.
- 13:07I should have my,
- 13:07like at least look at the top 40.
- 13:11So this is my, this is my theory.
- 13:14They feel because it's 25%
- 13:17and the best are going to
- 13:18make it on anyway.
- 13:19There's no time.
- 13:20There's no sense in wasting
- 13:21time picking every little
- 13:23thing because everybody who needs to make,
- 13:25it's going to make it.
- 13:27can't know it's true and you
- 13:28start at zero at quarters
- 13:30so and I think what that 25
- 13:32did that none of us even
- 13:34talked about when they
- 13:35announced it was it gives
- 13:36them that out now like
- 13:38everybody's going to make
- 13:39it in so that they don't
- 13:41have to nitpick videos they
- 13:43just need to make sure that
- 13:44the winner is at least
- 13:46that's getting the 2024
- 13:48dollars is going to be
- 13:50legit and after that it's
- 13:52like okay the winning score is good
- 13:54Yeah.
- 13:56So I think that's what the,
- 13:57and then quarters you bet
- 13:59they judges better be on their game.
- 14:01I think for sure they will at quarters.
- 14:03You have to with top 40.
- 14:05I mean,
- 14:05we can talk about how strong the
- 14:07East region is versus the West,
- 14:10but it's crazy.
- 14:14They need to look at those
- 14:15videos because that top 40
- 14:15is going to be legit.
- 14:17There's almost 20 individual
- 14:18games athletes in the East.
- 14:20Yeah.
- 14:20And they're honest last two years.
- 14:23Yeah,
- 14:23they're going to need to check the
- 14:26top 300 videos of every workout.
- 14:28There's going to be random
- 14:29scores in there throwing
- 14:30off the total at the end.
- 14:34Yeah, for sure.
- 14:36I think they'll do a good
- 14:38job for the quarters.
- 14:40Let's hope.
- 14:41I want to talk about two things from 24.1.
- 14:43One, Colton's performance...
- 14:50demolishing the field in a short workout.
- 14:54Insane.
- 14:55On top of his mom dying a
- 14:58day or two before the event
- 15:01happened and him talking
- 15:03about in the middle of the workout,
- 15:04he thought about it and
- 15:08knew and said today that
- 15:10his mom didn't raise.
- 15:13I mean,
- 15:13he was raised by tough people and
- 15:15that he needed to push through.
- 15:17And that to me, like,
- 15:20Colton won the weekend in
- 15:21more ways than one.
- 15:21That was amazing.
- 15:24I was very happy for him to win it,
- 15:26especially going through
- 15:27what he had to go through.
- 15:28Like, geez, like, I mean,
- 15:32couldn't have asked for a
- 15:34better winner there.
- 15:36And then the other thing I
- 15:37want to talk about,
- 15:38and then I'll let you guys
- 15:39wrap up whatever you do.
- 15:40We talked about this a
- 15:41couple of weeks ago and
- 15:42they announced the master's
- 15:43dates being the same weekend as teens.
- 15:47And in that episode, I said,
- 15:49there's a girl named Leah
- 15:51Berger who is going to make the games,
- 15:54and it's going to be a
- 15:54choice whether her dad,
- 15:56two-time defending champion,
- 15:58goes to the Masters games,
- 16:00or do they go support her
- 16:02at the team games.
- 16:0324.1, Leah's seventh in the world.
- 16:06Yep.
- 16:10and Rudy, her dad,
- 16:11two-time defending champion
- 16:13in a 40- to 44-year-old division.
- 16:15What kind of conflict does
- 16:16that put them in going into this season?
- 16:20Here's something they should be, like,
- 16:22super stoked about,
- 16:24and now they have this
- 16:25hanging over their head.
- 16:29it's, I mean,
- 16:30you feel like it's like a no brainer,
- 16:32right?
- 16:32Like she should get the shot.
- 16:34The problem is Rudy is just like,
- 16:36he's like one of the other
- 16:38than Jason Grubb is one of
- 16:39like the main headliners of masters now,
- 16:41or getting some
- 16:42sponsorships and you don't
- 16:44go perform at your game at
- 16:46your top competition.
- 16:49How are you going to keep those sponsors?
- 16:51And maybe they'll,
- 16:52maybe they'll be
- 16:53understanding and support them, but like,
- 16:56they're supporting you so
- 16:56that you can go show out
- 16:58and then you take that away.
- 17:00I mean, I don't know.
- 17:01And that's,
- 17:01that's not fair to their family.
- 17:06Yeah.
- 17:06I really not thought out.
- 17:10And that's just,
- 17:10that's just one instance
- 17:11that I know of because I'm
- 17:13friends with the family, but you know,
- 17:17I think there's going to be
- 17:17a lot more of those cases
- 17:19where coach athlete, family member,
- 17:22family member, it's going to,
- 17:23it's going to get messy.
- 17:25Um,
- 17:27And they really need to
- 17:28rethink having them on the same weekend.
- 17:31Unless they combine.
- 17:34Yeah.
- 17:36Into one event.
- 17:38Agreed.
- 17:39So any final thoughts for
- 17:40you guys on 24.1?
- 17:41It's like 24.2.
- 17:53All right.
- 17:55I do want to show some of Holly's stats.
- 17:57She put a lot of work into them.
- 17:59So we'll finish up with those.
- 18:00I'm going to share my screen.
- 18:05She did such a good job.
- 18:07And she did some stuff.
- 18:08She always does a good job.
- 18:09That's amazing.
- 18:11So here is a worldwide open.
- 18:15If you haven't seen this on,
- 18:19I have blown up the wrong screen.
- 18:21If you have not seen this on my Instagram,
- 18:25here are the top five in
- 18:27the world and then every region.
- 18:32And you can see, like, the difference.
- 18:34She puts the difference in times.
- 18:37To the next person in front of them.
- 18:39Correct.
- 18:44Okay.
- 18:46So we didn't talk about Mirjam Von Rohr,
- 18:49who won the women's side 539.
- 18:53Smash it.
- 18:54Pretty impressive.
- 18:57She had some of the best movement I saw.
- 18:59Yep.
- 19:00For me, better than Colton.
- 19:02Yes.
- 19:05So we need to give her her due as well.
- 19:07Yeah.
- 19:08Crushed it.
- 19:08Yeah,
- 19:09like Lex had sent me the video and
- 19:11she was like, look at this girl.
- 19:12It's legit too.
- 19:13And I was like,
- 19:14I looked at the video and I was like,
- 19:15oh yeah, that's legit.
- 19:16Her reps look great.
- 19:18Because sometimes you see
- 19:19people score and you're like, you know,
- 19:20I'll wait until the judges
- 19:21review and look at what it
- 19:23actually looked like.
- 19:24And then you saw hers and you're like,
- 19:26good job.
- 19:27Like that was great.
- 19:29So when I'm looking at these numbers,
- 19:31I'm looking for things that don't belong,
- 19:34right?
- 19:35And one thing that doesn't
- 19:36belong here is Freya Mooseburger.
- 19:39I would not have put her in
- 19:41this workout as her strength.
- 19:44And to come in second in
- 19:45North America East is a hell of a job.
- 19:50That's why I also wanted to
- 19:51see her video too.
- 19:52I would like to see that, yeah.
- 19:54Cause that was my first thought was like,
- 19:56I did not expect like fee.
- 19:57I could see, I mean, Hiller horse.
- 20:00It's the most of the, the ones in front.
- 20:02I was like, Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 20:03Freya is smaller.
- 20:04She did do well at a,
- 20:05at a burpee workout at water blues,
- 20:07but I still wouldn't have
- 20:08expected her in this type of workout.
- 20:11Just judging by some of her
- 20:13past performances,
- 20:14I guessed in like the
- 20:16burpees stuff that we've seen.
- 20:20So, yeah,
- 20:21that one I was definitely the
- 20:23most surprised.
- 20:25If it's legit,
- 20:27you need to look out for her this year.
- 20:29Well,
- 20:30the movements I saw for the small
- 20:32movements that she posted
- 20:33on her Instagram looked good.
- 20:35But you make sure that you
- 20:37always put your best stuff.
- 20:38Yeah, right.
- 20:39Like they're not...
- 20:40so yeah because she's strong
- 20:44like that's what I put in
- 20:45the power output yep
- 20:46category not something like
- 20:48this and yeah that blew me
- 20:50away when I saw that same
- 20:53and I know elena buds is
- 20:54coming off in the injury
- 20:56and she did great two years
- 20:57ago so good to see her back
- 21:00um got to know her for the
- 21:02little bit of time she was
- 21:03at underdogs I'm so excited
- 21:05to see her in the top five
- 21:11I was surprised about Kyra Milligan too.
- 21:16Strong posterior deadlift and small.
- 21:19Yeah.
- 21:22Like she had one of the best
- 21:23deadlifts plus, you know, small.
- 21:27Let's say you just did.
- 21:30It is a go dark kind of athlete.
- 21:33Yeah.
- 21:34Yeah.
- 21:36Um,
- 21:38Just saying,
- 21:39those are people that really
- 21:40caught me off guard.
- 21:41Yeah, like you look at Jamie Simmons,
- 21:42you're like, yeah,
- 21:43every time there's a short
- 21:45sprint burpee workout, you're like, yeah,
- 21:47she's top, whole to top.
- 21:48There's a few people that you're always,
- 21:50they're always at the top
- 21:53for most workouts, but this one as well.
- 21:57And how about our girl, Kara Saunders,
- 21:59after having a baby,
- 22:01coming back better than ever.
- 22:04She's one that would always
- 22:05do well as well, like prior to it.
- 22:10The other thing I wanted to
- 22:11show from Holly is she had
- 22:14kind of signups.
- 22:18Let's do worldwide men real quick.
- 22:22Here we have the top five
- 22:25overall in the world.
- 22:29Africa, Asia, Europe, North America East,
- 22:40I like to see Caron there.
- 22:43Yeah.
- 22:43Especially because he got
- 22:44injured at Waterpalooza,
- 22:46had to pull out his pec again,
- 22:48the second time during the year.
- 22:50So obviously with burpees,
- 22:53he had to have recovered
- 22:54from Waterpalooza.
- 22:59Will Mora just keeps getting younger.
- 23:01He's crazy.
- 23:02He's good.
- 23:06Nothing surprising there.
- 23:08No.
- 23:09Nothing surprising there.
- 23:10Ben Gerrard back.
- 23:12Ben beat his brother?
- 23:13Ben beat his brother.
- 23:15My question was, Ben's back.
- 23:18Is his suspension over?
- 23:20Yeah,
- 23:21he got popped two years after Ricky
- 23:23in 2019.
- 23:23So this would be his first year back.
- 23:25Okay.
- 23:26Yeah, because he's way up.
- 23:29Master's 35 to 39.
- 23:31I think he's in first or second.
- 23:34Not surprised.
- 23:36Yeah.
- 23:40Let's,
- 23:41and then I just want to do
- 23:42registrants just so we kind of see that.
- 23:50Here we go.
- 23:53Individual men by Rx scaled
- 23:57foundations in different regions.
- 24:00But you can see overall,
- 24:02these are people that
- 24:02logged at least one score.
- 24:05And well over 150,000 men
- 24:09logged to score 161.
- 24:10There, she did the math for me.
- 24:15So that was pretty cool.
- 24:17And then on the women's side.
- 24:26Sure.
- 24:27Was it not slide two?
- 24:30I thought, oh, maybe it is.
- 24:33There it is.
- 24:34Okay.
- 24:34There it is.
- 24:35130,000 women logged a workout.
- 24:36So that gets us close to 300,000.
- 24:43Then you add adaptive.
- 24:44You go over 300,000.
- 25:02So pretty good signups.
- 25:05Again, what kills me, though, is Europe,
- 25:10North America East,
- 25:11North America West get 40
- 25:13with all of these signups.
- 25:16And Africa, Asia, Oceania,
- 25:18and South America with much
- 25:20more limited signups only
- 25:23get 40 as well to quarters.
- 25:25It's crazy.
- 25:27Right.
- 25:27I can talk.
- 25:31So, but, um, yeah, always check the site.
- 25:36Holly gets this stuff out quick.
- 25:38Um, and she got one out today.
- 25:40That's really cool where she
- 25:41did all the splits from
- 25:42Justin and Colton during their 24.2.
- 25:45So you can kind of see each
- 25:48round where they were.
- 25:49Can you pull that back up again?
- 25:51I want to see how many men went dead,
- 25:52scaled.
- 25:54A lot less than the woman.
- 25:56That's what I was.
- 25:57A lot less.
- 25:57I was just looking at,
- 25:58I was looking at that.
- 26:00Is there a 36, 36,000 woman to like, uh,
- 26:04there wasn't many men egos.
- 26:08Well, it kind of was a super accessible.
- 26:11Yeah.
- 26:11Like that's only 15%.
- 26:12Not even, I mean, it was,
- 26:16it was one that most,
- 26:17a lot of people could RX, right?
- 26:19Right.
- 26:21And like version and the
- 26:23foundation later dumbbell, right?
- 26:25Just a lighter dumbbell.
- 26:26That was the only difference.
- 26:30Yeah.
- 26:30So like 18,
- 26:31not quite 20% of men went
- 26:34scaled in like 30 some percent of women.
- 26:38Like that's crazy.
- 26:40And then same with the foundations.
- 26:41There's a lot more on the woman's side too,
- 26:45than the men's.
- 26:45That I could sort of see.
- 26:47Yeah.
- 26:48Just experience and training
- 26:49and doing stuff.
- 26:51Yeah,
- 26:52I think the burpee scared some of
- 26:54your newer women in general.
- 26:56To jump over.
- 26:57Yeah.
- 27:00But, I mean, I don't,
- 27:02it was a burpee workout.
- 27:05Like,
- 27:05if you're going to do the burpee anyway,
- 27:07just move the dumbbell
- 27:08slower and log the darn RX.
- 27:10Yeah.
- 27:13Interesting.
- 27:15All right.
- 27:16Yeah, all that from Holly.
- 27:18Yeah.
- 27:18So now we move to 24.2.
- 27:19Mm-hmm.
- 27:21It was the guest announcer
- 27:23was Seth Rollins from the WWE.
- 27:28I got to say, I loved it.
- 27:30I did too.
- 27:31I just wish it was a different,
- 27:32it was a bigger,
- 27:33I wish that they were in an affiliate.
- 27:35Cause if you have three,
- 27:36200 people packed into an
- 27:38affiliate and he's got his voice and his,
- 27:41there was atmosphere in that little gym.
- 27:42There was no atmosphere.
- 27:43Like no one was like,
- 27:45like that crowd wasn't that,
- 27:48that loud there.
- 27:50I thought it should have
- 27:50been an affiliate.
- 27:53Well, I mean, his gym is affiliated,
- 27:54but like a little bit bigger.
- 27:58Right.
- 27:58He was wasted on a small crowd.
- 28:00Totally.
- 28:02Yeah.
- 28:02And like, like I was all pumped up.
- 28:04I'm a kid of the, like I was WWF, WWE,
- 28:08same, all that stuff growing up.
- 28:10Like I love that stuff.
- 28:12Um, and I'm all in on the iron hog.
- 28:15Yeah.
- 28:15That was hilarious.
- 28:17Like that.
- 28:18like that should be Colton's nickname.
- 28:21Um, I love it.
- 28:22And, uh,
- 28:23I love the way he was poking
- 28:25everybody up and you, but you're right.
- 28:27It was all wasted on a very small crowd.
- 28:31Yeah.
- 28:32Picture that at like a
- 28:34packed affiliate and the,
- 28:35and the people going nuts around them.
- 28:38Oh my gosh.
- 28:40Cause it almost made it
- 28:41seemed like in the comments were like,
- 28:43people were like, Oh, like,
- 28:45cringy or like awkward but
- 28:47it's it's just because the
- 28:48atmosphere wasn't right for
- 28:49it he was great that's my
- 28:52opinion yeah I was I was
- 28:54all pumped up I liked it I
- 28:58was ready to go try it and
- 29:03pass out at 200 meters on the row
- 29:08But yeah, so I love that part.
- 29:10I loved how much he got into it.
- 29:13I'm curious to see what happened.
- 29:17Like,
- 29:17because he said Justin was going to
- 29:18let him do it afterwards.
- 29:20I hope someone videoed it.
- 29:22Yeah,
- 29:22there was something posted on the games.
- 29:24I think Theo, the dog,
- 29:25also got in the way of his double unders.
- 29:29Seth's double unders.
- 29:30Geez.
- 29:32Oh, boy.
- 29:32I think there was something like that.
- 29:33I think on games Instagram,
- 29:35I'd have to look.
- 29:37I thought so.
- 29:39Beck says, I don't know anything about WWE,
- 29:41but I liked it.
- 29:42It was a fun announcement.
- 29:45Kenneth says, people don't get it.
- 29:46That's Rollins' gimmick.
- 29:50Yeah.
- 29:51Go to the CrossFit Games
- 29:53Instagram and go look at
- 29:56Seth Rollins' double under
- 30:00and the dog that runs in.
- 30:09It's got to be their first post.
- 30:23Wait for it.
- 30:26Wait for it.
- 30:28He looks good.
- 30:30I know.
- 30:31Hold on here.
- 30:37Where is it?
- 30:39It was before that.
- 30:40It was before that.
- 30:41So you have to, there it is.
- 30:43Hold on.
- 30:44Keep it going.
- 30:46Oh yeah.
- 30:46Boom.
- 30:47Boom.
- 30:53The captain's great.
- 30:54Theo wasn't gonna let him beat Justin.
- 31:00Theo made sure that Justin
- 31:01had the top time in the shed,
- 31:03that's for sure.
- 31:05Sabotaging.
- 31:07Kenneth,
- 31:08I bought my first pair of Metcons
- 31:09because of Seth Rollins.
- 31:14Why wasn't this produced as
- 31:16some kind of footage?
- 31:17After show.
- 31:19Right.
- 31:19We talked about it last week.
- 31:21Yeah.
- 31:22They finished a workout and
- 31:23the show's done.
- 31:24I would have liked to have
- 31:25seen him versus Boz.
- 31:27Yes.
- 31:28Anyone else in there?
- 31:30Anyone else?
- 31:31And then Justin and Colton
- 31:33are judging them.
- 31:35Dave has good double-unders.
- 31:37Dave should be in there too.
- 31:38All three of them throw down after a boss,
- 31:41Dave and him.
- 31:44I'm sure they have three
- 31:45rowers that they could do it.
- 31:47Sure.
- 31:48Was that Daniel Robbins that
- 31:50was wrangling Theo at the end?
- 31:55I thought it was Justin, wasn't it?
- 31:57No, Justin's over on a box.
- 31:59Oh, his dad.
- 32:00Oh, I think it's, I think it's Daniel.
- 32:05But like Seth looks good and he's tall.
- 32:07He probably killed the row.
- 32:09I would be very curious.
- 32:11Like it would have been a fun thing.
- 32:12Those level unders look great.
- 32:13I'll take some of those.
- 32:15Ken spot on bring two other
- 32:17WWE guys and have them face off.
- 32:18How cool that had been.
- 32:20Yeah.
- 32:25Missed opportunity there, totally.
- 32:28And I like with Boz,
- 32:29like let Boz take on the
- 32:30heavyweight champ.
- 32:32Everybody loves Boz, right?
- 32:34So it's a perfect like heel.
- 32:39They should have leaned into
- 32:40it and done something there.
- 32:42And Boz would be that guy
- 32:44that like wore an outfit or
- 32:47like a mask in or something
- 32:49to take him on.
- 32:52Yeah,
- 32:52they could have done so much with it.
- 32:55Total missed opportunity.
- 32:59All right.
- 33:00So then we get into the actual workout.
- 33:02It was, so it was 300 meter row,
- 33:0510 deadlifts, 185, 125.
- 33:05And then 50 double unders,
- 33:0920 minute AMRAP.
- 33:10Initial thoughts on the workout itself.
- 33:11Didn't like it.
- 33:26I think it's fine.
- 33:29I was like,
- 33:29this is going to be way too
- 33:30many double-unders.
- 33:31That was my first thought for the elites.
- 33:34I was like, oh,
- 33:34that's a lot of double-unders.
- 33:36We've done about 600.
- 33:37And then a lot of hinging again.
- 33:39It was like last week was...
- 33:41hinge with the burpees and
- 33:43the dumbbell snatch and
- 33:44you're doing and jumping.
- 33:45And then here was hinging and jumping.
- 33:47And I was like, I really,
- 33:48I really thought there was
- 33:50going to be a squat this week,
- 33:51especially looking at the
- 33:52cap from next week that has
- 33:54front squats and, and something,
- 33:56the burpee box jump over is
- 33:57the following day of 2020.
- 33:584.3 I was like oh the front
- 34:02squat are going to be this
- 34:03week and it would have made
- 34:04sense to front squat or
- 34:05something I think front
- 34:06squats would have been
- 34:07great um I would I thought
- 34:09it was going to be row
- 34:10double unders and wall
- 34:11balls something like that
- 34:12yeah I thought what balls
- 34:13for sure well after our
- 34:15talk last week I said on
- 34:17the round table on monday
- 34:18it was going to be deadlift
- 34:19row and double unders you
- 34:21did yeah I did I spot on
- 34:27I agree.
- 34:28It's a little bit much in the hinging, but,
- 34:32and I do think like front
- 34:34squat would have been better.
- 34:34I think front squat would
- 34:35have taxed the shoulders
- 34:37even more and made the
- 34:38double unders even like you
- 34:40were to really had to been
- 34:42great at double unders to
- 34:46succeed at this workout.
- 34:47And I do think we need to
- 34:49make sure we're hitting
- 34:50that skill component and
- 34:53more so than just capacity
- 34:55component because it's so accessible.
- 34:59But it's okay.
- 35:00I mean, it is what it is.
- 35:01Again,
- 35:02the top 25% are going to be totally fine.
- 35:09So I think when I came down to it,
- 35:11it was they keep saying it
- 35:13needs to be accessible.
- 35:14You can pull someone off the
- 35:15street and they could come
- 35:16in and compete.
- 35:18Deadlift is the easiest lift
- 35:19there is to do that.
- 35:20Right.
- 35:22Rowing,
- 35:22anybody can get on a rower and pull
- 35:25the chain.
- 35:26And then double unders,
- 35:27most people can do a single
- 35:29under if they can't do a
- 35:29double under and at least
- 35:31do a scaled version.
- 35:32So I just thought it made sense.
- 35:34And Carolyn convinced me
- 35:35double unders were in it by
- 35:38her study of the cap.
- 35:39So that's why I went with it on Monday.
- 35:42I didn't know I was going to be right.
- 35:45I'm glad I was right because
- 35:47I'm usually way off on these things.
- 35:50My initial thought was
- 35:52that's a lot of transitions
- 35:53and it's going to be a like
- 35:55a component of it is going
- 35:56to be set up and just transition speed.
- 36:00How would you put your stuff?
- 36:04I think basically like Bryson had it,
- 36:07Rower.
- 36:07I had two people do it at the gym tonight.
- 36:09What did he have it?
- 36:10I didn't see it.
- 36:11It was basically like so Rower.
- 36:15jump rope barbell so you
- 36:18like got off your rower
- 36:19stepped over your rope dead
- 36:20lifted got jump roped and
- 36:22sat right back down that's
- 36:23probably how I'll set mine
- 36:24up see I i need so much
- 36:25room for my double unders I
- 36:27can't do that that's that
- 36:28short transition because
- 36:30like I can't have anything
- 36:34in this a big circle here
- 36:37okay you are supposed to be an athlete
- 36:40I know it's so frustrating.
- 36:43Well,
- 36:43just like have your rower and then
- 36:45your barbell up and leave
- 36:46like a bigger space to like
- 36:48travel your jump rope.
- 36:49You just step forward for your deadlift.
- 36:52Yeah.
- 36:52You'll be all right.
- 36:57Cause that's your rest.
- 36:5810 dead.
- 36:59I mean,
- 37:00but the only problem is I only take
- 37:01you 10 seconds.
- 37:03It's irrelevant for the elites.
- 37:04I can't go that fast.
- 37:08Cause I got to call myself.
- 37:10I got to call myself me for
- 37:11my double unders.
- 37:12Yeah.
- 37:13I have a lot of anxiety when I get to this,
- 37:16to the rope.
- 37:19I think about that.
- 37:20That is a place where it's going to be.
- 37:23I mean, it's a rowing workout for sure,
- 37:25but you can't be tripping
- 37:27on your double unders every round.
- 37:28You can't.
- 37:30Yeah.
- 37:31For the elites.
- 37:32It's a rowing workout.
- 37:33Yes.
- 37:34For me,
- 37:35it's a transition and double under
- 37:37workout.
- 37:40Andrew,
- 37:41Stan did it tonight and said the
- 37:43deadlift got his back.
- 37:45But you just competed in
- 37:47Olympic lifting five days ago.
- 37:50Should be recovered, though.
- 37:52We all just hinged over a
- 37:53bunch of times five days ago.
- 37:55Five days ago?
- 37:55I hope you recovered five days ago.
- 37:58Hey,
- 37:59we're not all the athletes you guys are.
- 38:01Five days?
- 38:02That's almost a week.
- 38:03I'm just trying to have my boys back.
- 38:09Yeah, make excuses for him.
- 38:14So when do you guys think
- 38:16you're going to do it?
- 38:18Saturday.
- 38:18I leave for California tomorrow.
- 38:21I haven't even packed yet.
- 38:22Spring break?
- 38:25Yeah, it's March break.
- 38:27Yeah, rest.
- 38:27That's cool.
- 38:28So I'll be there for this
- 38:30week and then the point three.
- 38:33Nice.
- 38:35I went to Costco yesterday
- 38:36and bought a lot of dog treat stuff.
- 38:39Ready to see my doodles.
- 38:43So Andrew did 24.1 on Monday.
- 38:46Okay.
- 38:47See,
- 38:47your back could be more sore still
- 38:49from Monday from that
- 38:50versus to me in Olympic
- 38:51lifting where you're doing one rep.
- 38:55I'll give you some slack there, Andrew.
- 38:59Yeah.
- 39:01I will likely be doing it
- 39:02tomorrow right before I
- 39:05start Friday night lights for the gym.
- 39:08Is your team getting
- 39:09together this weekend?
- 39:11That's the plan Sunday.
- 39:13This, that was my issue.
- 39:14And I was like, do I want it?
- 39:15Is this one I want to do twice?
- 39:18How does it work for teams?
- 39:20Do you guys always have to
- 39:20go to the same gym for the open quarters?
- 39:22Is that how it does?
- 39:24No,
- 39:25it doesn't matter if you guys went
- 39:26alternated the gyms,
- 39:27you have to go to that same one.
- 39:29Like even if the whole team
- 39:30went to one gym,
- 39:31then the whole team went to another gym.
- 39:33I don't think so.
- 39:33I think we have to go to grant to our,
- 39:35to the affiliate each week.
- 39:38It would be easier on us to
- 39:40be able to all meet at my gym,
- 39:42but I don't think we have that option.
- 39:48Tristan says I'm late, but I'm here.
- 39:49What I miss.
- 39:51You miss that.
- 39:52Jamie did awesome in the week one.
- 39:55Carolyn did awesome in week one.
- 39:56Carolyn hates week two.
- 39:59We looked at open
- 40:01registrations and how many
- 40:02people did scaled.
- 40:04Women did a lot more than men.
- 40:06And Seth Rollins was awesome.
- 40:09Nice recap, Scott.
- 40:11And CrossFit missed out by
- 40:12not having a broadcast.
- 40:14Yeah.
- 40:15And put him up against someone like Boz.
- 40:18Yeah, versing somebody.
- 40:20Yep.
- 40:23And TV talk, as Kenna said.
- 40:27And Caitlin Clark talk.
- 40:28Caitlin Clark talk.
- 40:33Um, so, okay.
- 40:36So you're going to do it
- 40:37before you go for
- 40:38California or when you get to California.
- 40:42Yeah.
- 40:43How much of a difference
- 40:44does that make having,
- 40:47having Lex with you or does
- 40:48that not make a difference?
- 40:52For the, for like this open workout?
- 40:54No.
- 40:54Yeah.
- 40:54Like any workout.
- 40:55This is a me versus,
- 40:57this is a me versus my
- 40:58double unders battle right now.
- 41:00That's,
- 41:01Okay.
- 41:01Lex coaching me, me doing it by myself,
- 41:04me doing it.
- 41:05And like, I can't,
- 41:06this is a type of workout
- 41:07that I don't need a bunch
- 41:08of like noise too,
- 41:10because I need to like
- 41:11focus on my double unders.
- 41:15I don't want any of the dogs
- 41:16to go into my double unders like Theo did,
- 41:22but yeah, it's a, I mean,
- 41:25it's just nice to have her around though.
- 41:28Get to judge her too.
- 41:30our roundtable chat group, Kat, said this,
- 41:35and I agreed.
- 41:36Miranda on the mic was
- 41:37freaking awesome today.
- 41:38Yeah, she was good.
- 41:40So good.
- 41:42I missed her.
- 41:45You know, it takes me back,
- 41:46and she's so smooth in the way she talks.
- 41:50She knows the sport forward and back,
- 41:53so it's effortless for her.
- 41:54And I like Pat Sherwood, too.
- 41:57So I thought it was a good team today.
- 42:00I really enjoyed them.
- 42:02But they still missed the
- 42:03mark with the Seth Rollins thing.
- 42:07What do you think the top
- 42:08score will be for males and
- 42:11females this week?
- 42:15So I said in that same chat
- 42:17that I thought 12.
- 42:19Someone would get into the
- 42:2012 on the men's side.
- 42:23Oh, for sure they'll get into the 12th.
- 42:25I'm curious.
- 42:28I think there's going to be
- 42:28somebody finishing the 12th.
- 42:30But there's only 12 spots on the scorecard,
- 42:32so that'll be somebody's
- 42:35goal to win the scorecard.
- 42:38Oh, with Julian.
- 42:40Well, why did we not get to see that?
- 42:46Yeah, that would have been cool even.
- 42:49So Miranda's husband.
- 42:51Yeah.
- 42:52Who was a games athlete individually too.
- 42:55Yeah.
- 42:56That would have been awesome.
- 42:57It's too bad.
- 43:00How much behind you think
- 43:02the females are on this than the males?
- 43:11Half around.
- 43:12I don't know.
- 43:12Not like,
- 43:13I think there'll be girls getting
- 43:14through 11.
- 43:15Yeah.
- 43:17I don't know.
- 43:19They got through 11.
- 43:20Justin did.
- 43:23They got into 11.
- 43:26That's probably as, I don't know.
- 43:27That's probably going to be about the top.
- 43:28They didn't have the best
- 43:29transitions to where their placement was.
- 43:31It wasn't in the athletes like favor.
- 43:38Yeah.
- 43:39But I would say, yeah,
- 43:42I would say somewhere around that same,
- 43:43that same score that they
- 43:44got would be the top girl score.
- 43:48See, I'm trying to think of, like,
- 43:49the rowers that would break this.
- 43:54Someone tall?
- 43:55Yeah, like, but who I'm thinking of is,
- 43:57like, Sam Briggs and Annie,
- 43:58and they're not really,
- 43:59they're not doing it, so.
- 44:00Horvath will do well.
- 44:03Yeah.
- 44:04She doesn't have the height like they do.
- 44:09The power of the machine, though.
- 44:11It was like a Margot Alvarez workout.
- 44:17the rope debacle is that the
- 44:22when they touch the rope
- 44:23yeah because Adam switched
- 44:26out his rope for him is
- 44:27what it is I'm sure they
- 44:28won't it looked like right
- 44:31there so Kenneth is just so
- 44:33everybody knows you guys
- 44:34care about the rope debacle
- 44:36no no I don't think
- 44:38CrossFit cares I think
- 44:40literally they just want to
- 44:42get through this know that
- 44:43the elites are going to
- 44:44make it to quarters
- 44:46And not have to do a bunch
- 44:48of video review or getting it picky.
- 44:51But I do hate,
- 44:52it has been a known fact
- 44:53that people shouldn't be
- 44:54touching equipment for years.
- 44:57And the worst culprits are the coaches.
- 44:59Right.
- 45:05So I bet they give him a
- 45:07penalty of a couple seconds.
- 45:14Yeah, possible.
- 45:14Meaning a couple reps or rep.
- 45:18I mean, if Boz said go change it out,
- 45:22I couldn't totally see what
- 45:23happened there.
- 45:23Was it broken?
- 45:24Is that what happened?
- 45:25It just was tangled.
- 45:28Justin didn't set it down right.
- 45:29He straightened it out for him.
- 45:31No,
- 45:32he went and got another rope and set
- 45:33another rope.
- 45:33I didn't see that.
- 45:36I think the handle... I'm
- 45:41pretty sure he walked to
- 45:42the back of the gym,
- 45:42got another one out of his bag,
- 45:45and came and set it down.
- 45:49And I think, sort of think.
- 45:54Andrew, I agree.
- 45:55If it broke,
- 45:55Justin should have gotten another rope,
- 45:57not the coach.
- 45:58Not how the setup is of that.
- 46:00He can't just go to his bag
- 46:02during this announcement.
- 46:05That's not what people would want to see.
- 46:06Like, just give him a rope.
- 46:09I think if you're at your
- 46:10own gym and you have your bag right there,
- 46:13but there's, you know,
- 46:1450 people maybe in there crammed.
- 46:16Yeah,
- 46:16every Friday Night Lights is going to be.
- 46:20Yeah,
- 46:21he should have had his second rope
- 46:23right there available.
- 46:24Anytime there's a jump rope workout,
- 46:26you should have your second
- 46:26rope available.
- 46:29It is what it is.
- 46:30It's not a big deal.
- 46:31To me, it's not a big deal,
- 46:32but I don't know.
- 46:35So who do you think... So
- 46:38you're picking Laura to win this?
- 46:40No, I'm not.
- 46:42But just because I don't
- 46:43think she's going as hard
- 46:45in the open as...
- 46:47maybe someone that would
- 46:48really want to win this workout.
- 46:49I think it's going to be a random person.
- 46:51It would be someone like Michaela Norman.
- 46:53That would just be tall,
- 46:55probably on the rower.
- 46:58Maybe too tall for the deadlifts.
- 47:00I'm trying to think on the woman's side.
- 47:03Danny Spiegel?
- 47:04Yeah, I'm sort of thinking her.
- 47:06She crushed .1.
- 47:10I was shocked with her time.
- 47:11She's always done long burpee stuff,
- 47:12and she's strong.
- 47:14And she's good at double unders.
- 47:18She might.
- 47:19Rolf, I think, could do well here.
- 47:21Rolf is great on machines
- 47:22and always has done really
- 47:23well with double unders.
- 47:25And that's not a heavy deadlift.
- 47:27I think Emily could do well.
- 47:30I think.
- 47:33On the men's side.
- 47:38Brent.
- 47:41Yeah, I'm thinking.
- 47:42He doesn't overpace it.
- 47:43James.
- 47:45James.
- 47:50I mean, those three are the best rowers.
- 47:53I feel like this is a type
- 47:54of workout where a random
- 47:55person might win, though.
- 47:57I think the Taylor versus
- 48:00Jason is going to bring out
- 48:02one of the best scores because of that,
- 48:04just like we saw last week.
- 48:07I just don't think Taylor's
- 48:08that good at this workout.
- 48:11I think he'll be good.
- 48:13I mean,
- 48:13I do think Jason's going to beat
- 48:14him in this one,
- 48:15but I think he'll push him.
- 48:19Do you think that CrossFit
- 48:21should have picked a better
- 48:22matchup for this?
- 48:23Yes.
- 48:24I don't understand why they
- 48:25know this has nothing to do with Colton,
- 48:27but if you know,
- 48:28you're going to do rowing in there,
- 48:31that wasn't a good, like put, put it, put,
- 48:33make them put on a show.
- 48:35Yeah.
- 48:35Put stuff.
- 48:35If you,
- 48:36if you're going to pick the matchup,
- 48:37let's pick movements that
- 48:39these two are going to battle it out.
- 48:41Like from the get go, I was like,
- 48:42you're not even giving Colton,
- 48:44no offense to Colton.
- 48:45Cause he's a freaking freak of anything.
- 48:47But like, I was like,
- 48:49They just set him up to
- 48:51basically... It was going to be very,
- 48:55very hard for him to win that workout.
- 48:57I totally agree.
- 48:57I was like,
- 48:59that's the workout you want
- 49:00these two to do?
- 49:02Some sort of squatting would
- 49:03have been fun and a little
- 49:05bit of gymnastic skill too,
- 49:07maybe a little bit of heavy lifting.
- 49:09They would have been good battles.
- 49:11I don't know.
- 49:15I kind of wonder what next
- 49:16week is going to be and
- 49:17then if we don't see...
- 49:21the workouts should have
- 49:22been like Colton should
- 49:23have been week three.
- 49:25That's,
- 49:26that's what I think is going to happen.
- 49:27We're going to see the workout.
- 49:28We're going to be like, Oh,
- 49:29Colton should have totally
- 49:30been in week three.
- 49:32Well,
- 49:32you could almost say the same for
- 49:34Brent in week one.
- 49:37A hundred percent.
- 49:38Yeah.
- 49:38Yeah.
- 49:39Like pick people.
- 49:42That's going to be a battle.
- 49:44Yeah.
- 49:45And if it's like versus
- 49:47Adler would have been a
- 49:47better matchup for one and
- 49:51Fikowski versus Medeiros
- 49:52would have been better for two.
- 49:55Fikowski would beat Medeiros on this one.
- 49:57I think, I think.
- 49:58I agree,
- 49:58but I think it would have been a
- 50:00fair fight.
- 50:01Yes.
- 50:01A better.
- 50:02Yeah.
- 50:05I know that they don't want
- 50:07to pick their matchups
- 50:08based on the workouts,
- 50:09but I still think they should.
- 50:13Kat asks,
- 50:13maybe CrossFit picked a workout
- 50:15they knew Justin could win?
- 50:16I don't think so.
- 50:20It kind of seems that way, yes.
- 50:27I hope not.
- 50:29But.
- 50:30So just I want to share
- 50:32Holly's work because she, again,
- 50:34did so awesome.
- 50:37We've got to shut down Seth here.
- 50:44And go back to my profile.
- 50:47Here we go.
- 50:48So I know this is small,
- 50:50so I'm going to blow it up.
- 50:51You can go out to the
- 50:52Instagram and do the same.
- 50:54She took the time to break
- 50:55down the splits for every
- 50:59phase of today's competition.
- 51:03Justin on the left, Colton on the right.
- 51:05And you can see it was a
- 51:06pretty tight go until
- 51:09Colton's rope got tangled pretty good.
- 51:13And he spent like 10 to 15 seconds.
- 51:16I would like Holly to...
- 51:19do row and every every row
- 51:23instead of doing it like
- 51:24like um with all these
- 51:25splits and where they are
- 51:26at each round I would like
- 51:28to see let's say 103 for
- 51:30the row 105 103 105 like
- 51:33that would be interesting
- 51:35to see like within each
- 51:36movement and then the
- 51:37deadlift it was like
- 51:39they're all going to be
- 51:41eight seconds let's say
- 51:42yeah double unders like
- 51:44Do you know what I mean by that?
- 51:45Yeah.
- 51:45Like you want to see was
- 51:46round six row one 10 instead of one.
- 51:49I lose 10 seconds in my round six row,
- 51:51my transition there.
- 51:52Yeah.
- 51:52Agree.
- 51:53But this is nice to see
- 51:55where each round is.
- 51:57And it's like, okay,
- 51:58when you're finishing the double under,
- 51:59are you ahead of a five 26
- 52:01time when you're finishing, you know,
- 52:02whatever round,
- 52:03it can be a good indication
- 52:06there to see if you're on
- 52:07pace for that score ish.
- 52:11What I couldn't believe is
- 52:11how much Colton caught up at the end.
- 52:14Yeah.
- 52:15Like that kid goes dark when others can't.
- 52:21And to get it within 40 meters at the end,
- 52:26like he had to be pulling
- 52:28something insane to do that.
- 52:32Because I think Justin was at 135.
- 52:33Yeah.
- 52:34I want to say I saw 131 on
- 52:38Colton's screen at the end.
- 52:42That's insane.
- 52:42That's insane.
- 52:44Because in 17 seconds, right?
- 52:46If you look at 19 and 1917, in 17 seconds,
- 52:50is that 40 meters?
- 52:52No.
- 52:54On the rower,
- 52:54you would get more than 40
- 52:56meters on the row in 17 seconds, correct?
- 52:59Correct.
- 52:59So he made up in that last
- 53:01row a significant amount of
- 53:04meters on Justin.
- 53:05That's what that tells me.
- 53:06If you look at 19 and 1917,
- 53:06that 40 meters is more than...
- 53:0717 seconds worth either the
- 53:14transition was slow or, or the roller.
- 53:18So something in that part, because to me,
- 53:2217 seconds on a row,
- 53:23that would be for a guy.
- 53:26I don't know.
- 53:27Let's just talk about, you know,
- 53:32as short as Colton is to be
- 53:34able to pull a one 31 ever on a rower is,
- 53:39is mind boggling.
- 53:43He's fit.
- 53:44I mean, at full out sprint,
- 53:45I think the most of the
- 53:47best I've ever done, like one 27, one 26.
- 53:50And that's like everything I
- 53:51have with a lot of power output.
- 53:55But it's like,
- 53:56people just think Colton is
- 53:57good at small people workout.
- 53:58Right.
- 53:59And they're like, Oh yeah.
- 54:00I mean, he is like, let's,
- 54:01let's be serious.
- 54:02But the dude is fit.
- 54:03Like he's gonna,
- 54:04he's gonna crush anything he does too.
- 54:06Yeah.
- 54:08He's the iron hog, man.
- 54:09Iron hog.
- 54:13I don't think you can give
- 54:14him enough credit for how –
- 54:16I think he's always
- 54:16underrated in his fitness,
- 54:18and he's proven in the last
- 54:20three years he's qualified for the games.
- 54:22Like he said, no one ever picks him to win,
- 54:23and yet he makes it into the games.
- 54:28Yeah,
- 54:28I want to answer a couple things in
- 54:29the chat.
- 54:30I think Jamie pulled this up.
- 54:32Justin versus Lazar would have been great.
- 54:33There's a story there.
- 54:35Would have been really great.
- 54:36More expensive for CrossFit.
- 54:39That would have been awesome.
- 54:40That would have been good.
- 54:42Lazar may not have been welcome.
- 54:47Kenneth made a comment about Roman.
- 54:49Here it is.
- 54:50Roman is allegedly the best on machines.
- 54:54Allegedly,
- 54:55but every time I've seen him
- 54:56with an opportunity to show it,
- 54:58he gasses out.
- 55:01From semifinals on last year,
- 55:03he gassed out every
- 55:05opportunity to show he was the best.
- 55:07Yep.
- 55:10I think we've established
- 55:12Dallin is either right
- 55:14there with them or possibly better.
- 55:16Go ahead, Carolyn.
- 55:22The Open is such a broader
- 55:25field of athletes.
- 55:26We always think about the
- 55:27games athletes always going at the top,
- 55:29but it could be just a
- 55:30random person that's going
- 55:31to win this workout.
- 55:33This is a typical 0.1 workout to me.
- 55:3520 minute low Barrett's entry,
- 55:39a random high rocks top
- 55:42person could do well,
- 55:43or a cardio person that
- 55:45just has double unders and can,
- 55:48and can roll.
- 55:49Like it may not be a games
- 55:50athlete caliber or even a semifinals.
- 55:52It could just be for sure.
- 55:54Like if it's got more high
- 55:56skill and heaviness and stuff,
- 55:58like you're going to see a
- 55:59games athlete or a top
- 56:01semifinal athlete win a workout.
- 56:03But in this type of workout,
- 56:04it's really hard to predict the,
- 56:06Who can, because like Roman's the best,
- 56:10he's the best maybe at the games,
- 56:11but like within this field
- 56:12of open athletes, no.
- 56:14I mean, do you think Hunter?
- 56:17Hunter would probably, yeah,
- 56:18if Hunter has good double
- 56:19unders and doesn't trip up,
- 56:20Hunter could crush this probably.
- 56:22What would that say?
- 56:25If mirror jam is apparently like a world,
- 56:29like one of the top high rocks runners,
- 56:30she could do.
- 56:31And so what would that say?
- 56:32If two weeks in a row,
- 56:34a high rocks one or a high
- 56:36rocks athlete one.
- 56:38I mean, there are two very,
- 56:39like not similar workouts, but this,
- 56:43this strength component is low.
- 56:46The skill is low.
- 56:50it's still a similar,
- 56:52it's a longer workout for sure.
- 56:54Completely different.
- 56:55Like the first one you're
- 56:56for the elites was very short.
- 56:58Right.
- 56:59For the right,
- 57:00for the general population
- 57:01was somewhere between I'd say 10 and 15.
- 57:03Right.
- 57:05But for the elites, it was sub eight.
- 57:09This one's 20,
- 57:10but it's still relatively engine pacing.
- 57:17But I mean,
- 57:21I mean,
- 57:21most High Rocks train CrossFit anyways.
- 57:25For sure.
- 57:25And we've always kind of
- 57:27known the open tests
- 57:29aerobic capacity more than anything else.
- 57:35So I can see a High Rocks athlete winning.
- 57:40Yeah.
- 57:42It would crush the OG crowd, Ken.
- 57:44I agree.
- 57:44I agree.
- 57:49So the final score on the
- 57:51leaderboard does not show
- 57:53the 40 meters because
- 57:56Andrew said that Justin won
- 57:58by eight meters.
- 58:00No, it was one rep for every 10 meters.
- 58:05So they're actually eight
- 58:06points apart now on the leaderboard.
- 58:08So it must have been 80 meters, not 40.
- 58:10Okay.
- 58:12But that's not what they
- 58:13announced on the telecast or the stream.
- 58:17And I don't know how we got to that.
- 58:21difference, but yeah.
- 58:28So.
- 58:31I just looked that up.
- 58:33All right.
- 58:34So what else do we have to talk about?
- 58:39There was talk that CrossFit
- 58:44was going to pivot away
- 58:45from the golden barbell.
- 58:50That is not what they did.
- 58:52But they only did the one
- 58:53workout this week, not three.
- 58:57Do you think that came across better?
- 59:00by handing over that golden
- 59:01barbell to the winner of
- 59:02the announcement.
- 59:06I love that Justin got a
- 59:07free year of Gawad mobility, um,
- 59:10since he's sponsored by them.
- 59:12I'm sure that meant a lot to him.
- 59:16I thought that was always
- 59:17the plan this week.
- 59:19I thought, I don't know.
- 59:21I thought the only,
- 59:22because they had four
- 59:23athletes there last week,
- 59:24they were doing the extra workouts.
- 59:26So when I talked to Ariel last week,
- 59:29she told me that she was
- 59:32going to have to do three
- 59:37workouts with Tia.
- 59:38Oh, okay.
- 59:41Now,
- 59:41it could have been a misunderstanding
- 59:42on her part.
- 59:42I don't know.
- 59:44So I just assumed she knew.
- 59:45I think they switched and
- 59:48pivoted after that first week of...
- 59:52stuff that happened there.
- 59:53Like it was just, it went bad.
- 59:55So I think they're like
- 59:57winner of the workout and
- 59:58that's what it should have been.
- 59:59Winner of the workout gets
- 1:00:00the golden barbell.
- 1:00:01Like you win.
- 1:00:02Cool.
- 1:00:06Well, they did that survey.
- 1:00:08Maybe that was the feedback
- 1:00:09they got and they were like, all right,
- 1:00:10we're dropping it.
- 1:00:11Did you take the survey?
- 1:00:13I didn't.
- 1:00:14Oh, I did.
- 1:00:15I don't know if I saw it.
- 1:00:18Maybe I missed it.
- 1:00:20Um, so should masters,
- 1:00:23we talked about should
- 1:00:24masters and adaptive and
- 1:00:25teens do their own announcements.
- 1:00:27They all kind of ponied up
- 1:00:30and did announcements last
- 1:00:32week in some form or fashion.
- 1:00:36I have not seen anything
- 1:00:37this week from the teens or the adaptive.
- 1:00:40I did see masters trying to
- 1:00:41put something together with
- 1:00:43four athletes.
- 1:00:45I think it's tomorrow.
- 1:00:46So, um,
- 1:00:50Were you able to watch any
- 1:00:51of the ones from last week?
- 1:00:54No,
- 1:00:58I don't feel like they're like CrossFit
- 1:01:00needs to share them.
- 1:01:03Any, I mean,
- 1:01:06they should come through the
- 1:01:08bar bend email,
- 1:01:08the morning chalk up bar bend email.
- 1:01:10They should come through on.
- 1:01:11Um, they should, they,
- 1:01:16the CrossFit should run it
- 1:01:17through their YouTube.
- 1:01:18Yeah.
- 1:01:20with the million subscribers
- 1:01:23and let people see.
- 1:01:24Because a lot of them were done on IG.
- 1:01:26And if you don't follow the right person,
- 1:01:28you're not getting to see it.
- 1:01:29Yeah, like I didn't see it,
- 1:01:30but I probably see it with
- 1:01:32the right person.
- 1:01:32So it just stinks.
- 1:01:38I wish the CrossFit Media
- 1:01:41Department would allow for sharing.
- 1:01:43If you're not going to do it yourself,
- 1:01:45and these people are doing it,
- 1:01:48let them show it.
- 1:01:51Amanda Brown says,
- 1:01:53Wheelwad did 24.2 today.
- 1:01:56And that's the one I did see.
- 1:01:57I did see them.
- 1:01:58Because I think Amy,
- 1:02:04she's one leg to stand on on Instagram.
- 1:02:08Oh, yeah.
- 1:02:09I think she was a part of it.
- 1:02:11I know who you're talking about.
- 1:02:12At least in the picture.
- 1:02:14And then Grubb was on that one today.
- 1:02:16Grubb was on Wheelwad?
- 1:02:18That's what she's saying.
- 1:02:23That's weird.
- 1:02:24Maybe they did a collab.
- 1:02:26And Amanda said, yes, it was her, Amy.
- 1:02:29Why can't I remember her last name?
- 1:02:32I can't think of it either.
- 1:02:33She's been on the show?
- 1:02:35Breen.
- 1:02:37Yes.
- 1:02:40Yep.
- 1:02:42So Wheelwad's doing it.
- 1:02:45But again,
- 1:02:45they're not getting the support
- 1:02:46from CrossFit.
- 1:02:48All it would take was like
- 1:02:50in our setup right here,
- 1:02:51I can click somebody else's
- 1:02:53YouTube and broadcast this
- 1:02:55show to someone else's YouTube.
- 1:02:59It's as simple as that.
- 1:03:01Why can't that be done with CrossFit?
- 1:03:03Just give permission for
- 1:03:04that to happen and let it
- 1:03:06appear in both places so it
- 1:03:07gets more attention.
- 1:03:12Yep.
- 1:03:12So she said they organized
- 1:03:14it with a teen and another
- 1:03:1545 to 49 year old male.
- 1:03:17Smart.
- 1:03:19So we'll, what did the gambit.
- 1:03:22So we'll, what did masters and teens.
- 1:03:25Yep.
- 1:03:26And adaptive and adaptive altogether.
- 1:03:29Yeah.
- 1:03:30Well, I didn't, that doesn't mean, I mean,
- 1:03:33good.
- 1:03:33I'm glad somebody did it,
- 1:03:34but why isn't legends
- 1:03:36putting something together?
- 1:03:39Maybe it's week three is legends.
- 1:03:42Okay.
- 1:03:45So the adaptive went first
- 1:03:46and then the three went after school.
- 1:03:49Yeah.
- 1:03:51I mean, the thing is,
- 1:03:52is if CrossFit's not going to help them,
- 1:03:53they need to help each other.
- 1:03:54Right.
- 1:03:55So like they can do things together,
- 1:03:59et cetera.
- 1:04:00So good on them for at least
- 1:04:03trying to do something,
- 1:04:04but it would be nice to
- 1:04:05have CrossFit back them up and,
- 1:04:08and share that.
- 1:04:11Yeah.
- 1:04:12So how did everybody do in heat one?
- 1:04:15Carolyn,
- 1:04:15do you play while you're competing?
- 1:04:20I did awful.
- 1:04:24Yeah, I, um, I got most,
- 1:04:27but I didn't get the big pointers.
- 1:04:29So I'm like 700 place.
- 1:04:31Now I did pick, um, I picked Colton today,
- 1:04:38so I missed that.
- 1:04:39I picked Colton today too.
- 1:04:42Could you guys not change
- 1:04:43your – how does it work?
- 1:04:48You can change up to the minute they go.
- 1:04:50Okay.
- 1:04:51Oh, you can?
- 1:04:53Yep.
- 1:04:55Well,
- 1:04:55like one of them is 24.2 going to be
- 1:04:58a repeat,
- 1:04:59so I'm assuming you couldn't
- 1:05:00change that one.
- 1:05:01Right.
- 1:05:01That one was locked.
- 1:05:02That one was locked to the announcement.
- 1:05:05So I could have changed –
- 1:05:07right when I saw the workout,
- 1:05:07I could have went in and
- 1:05:08changed it to Justin.
- 1:05:09Well, that was dumb of me.
- 1:05:10I didn't know you could do that.
- 1:05:12I didn't do it because I
- 1:05:13felt like because I already
- 1:05:13missed week one,
- 1:05:14I'm not going to I'm not
- 1:05:15going for the win.
- 1:05:16So I don't even feel like bothering.
- 1:05:18I only sign up if I can win.
- 1:05:20Yeah, I'm in like 700 to Scott.
- 1:05:22Yeah.
- 1:05:23Yeah.
- 1:05:24I don't really care where I
- 1:05:25finished as long as I
- 1:05:26finished one place out of Jamie.
- 1:05:28Well, I guess I better be out.
- 1:05:31Two places ahead of Lex.
- 1:05:33Those are my only goals.
- 1:05:34Is she doing it right now?
- 1:05:36I don't even know.
- 1:05:37I'll have to ask her.
- 1:05:39We did it at the games before.
- 1:05:41We had a lot of fun at the
- 1:05:42games going back and forth on the picks.
- 1:05:44And we did well.
- 1:05:45We were top ten, I think.
- 1:05:47She talks smack more than
- 1:05:48anybody I talk to about this.
- 1:05:52And especially at the games,
- 1:05:53she was ripping me apart.
- 1:05:56She did do well.
- 1:05:57Me and her both, like, yeah,
- 1:05:58we crushed the one at the game.
- 1:05:59I haven't done it since.
- 1:06:00I always forget about it.
- 1:06:02So, yeah,
- 1:06:03my only goals in life are to be
- 1:06:05Jamie and her.
- 1:06:08That's it.
- 1:06:08Well, if she's not even in,
- 1:06:09we've already won, Scott.
- 1:06:10I'll go through her phone
- 1:06:11and just change all her
- 1:06:12picks this weekend for you, Scott,
- 1:06:14if she's playing it.
- 1:06:16Knowing our luck,
- 1:06:17you'd switch the bad ones to the good.
- 1:06:19Yes.
- 1:06:23Um, all right.
- 1:06:24So he, one app, uh, it's still going on.
- 1:06:27There's, uh,
- 1:06:29Taylor versus the hopper tomorrow.
- 1:06:31And then the brackets are all weekend long,
- 1:06:34um,
- 1:06:35of those who went on and I still have
- 1:06:38Jamie,
- 1:06:38our brackets that we filled out
- 1:06:40before knowing any workouts.
- 1:06:43We're probably not doing so
- 1:06:44hot there right there, but I, I will have,
- 1:06:48I will tab them up.
- 1:06:49Isn't Emma carry in that bracket?
- 1:06:54Yep.
- 1:06:55Yeah, so we're, I mean, like,
- 1:06:57we need to just put that in the trash.
- 1:06:59Well, I had her going further than you did,
- 1:07:02so it's to my detriment.
- 1:07:09So there we go.
- 1:07:10All right.
- 1:07:12And Emma would have killed week one.
- 1:07:17I know.
- 1:07:19Yeah, she would have.
- 1:07:20I still don't know if she
- 1:07:20would have beat that one girl that won,
- 1:07:22though.
- 1:07:22No.
- 1:07:24I think she would have been
- 1:07:25Close to maybe Fee's score,
- 1:07:27like a 550 or something.
- 1:07:29But that 539,
- 1:07:32I don't know if she could have beat that.
- 1:07:33That was pretty impressive.
- 1:07:38But it is Emma.
- 1:07:39Yeah, maybe.
- 1:07:39I don't know.
- 1:07:41All right.
- 1:07:42Last thing about this is
- 1:07:45we're going to come on, I hope,
- 1:07:47Sunday night, Jamie,
- 1:07:49and recap your video or videos,
- 1:07:53depending on what you do.
- 1:07:54We'll talk about that.
- 1:07:55And anything that kind of
- 1:07:56happens over the weekend,
- 1:07:58we'll just kind of recap that up.
- 1:08:00Sunday night, just to announce that.
- 1:08:04So on to other things.
- 1:08:06I just wanted to close out.
- 1:08:07I did a riff on Monday, Tuesday,
- 1:08:10about Mr. Castro and his
- 1:08:12comments and his weekend review.
- 1:08:15Trying to get us canceled.
- 1:08:19My tone was good.
- 1:08:19Mm-hmm.
- 1:08:23I didn't get upset.
- 1:08:25I just spoke.
- 1:08:27You did.
- 1:08:27Your tone was okay.
- 1:08:29My tone was okay.
- 1:08:32What I want to say is the
- 1:08:33following day after some heat,
- 1:08:38I'm guessing, and not for me.
- 1:08:40I'm not pretending that I
- 1:08:42had any effect in this.
- 1:08:43The game's Instagram shared that video.
- 1:08:48Oh.
- 1:08:49accepted a collaboration the
- 1:08:51following morning to share
- 1:08:54haley's video so after dave
- 1:08:57said absolutely not we're
- 1:08:59not going to do that they
- 1:09:01then turned around the next
- 1:09:03day and and went ahead and shared it
- 1:09:07so that's good and again all
- 1:09:11I want is the sport to grow
- 1:09:13because I love talking
- 1:09:14about it I love hanging out
- 1:09:16with people in it and I
- 1:09:18just want the sport to grow
- 1:09:19and we need to all work
- 1:09:20together and share stuff
- 1:09:22so that it gets more
- 1:09:23traction and we got to stop
- 1:09:26talking to the base and get
- 1:09:27people outside of the space
- 1:09:29to come into the space
- 1:09:31right and the video like
- 1:09:32haley's is so different and
- 1:09:35so unique and so personal
- 1:09:38that it it's got 160 000
- 1:09:41views on youtube like it's
- 1:09:43it's outside of the base
- 1:09:46Is it outside?
- 1:09:47How do we know it's outside of the base?
- 1:09:48I mean,
- 1:09:48I feel like it's like us that knows
- 1:09:50Haley Adams and her story.
- 1:09:51Like when people outside of
- 1:09:52CrossFit think it's like,
- 1:09:56any young girl can relate.
- 1:10:00I still think it's talking to the bait.
- 1:10:02Like it's still,
- 1:10:03it's still us excited about
- 1:10:05a production and a content.
- 1:10:07I think of an athlete that we care about.
- 1:10:10Five times the views of
- 1:10:12anybody else's stuff.
- 1:10:14But I still think it's our community.
- 1:10:16It's people like Haley.
- 1:10:18I don't know.
- 1:10:23Until it gets like a million views,
- 1:10:25I don't think we can say
- 1:10:26that it's getting outside
- 1:10:29of our community.
- 1:10:30I still think it's our community.
- 1:10:31It's us looking for that
- 1:10:33kind of content that has been missing.
- 1:10:36But I still think there's
- 1:10:38just been more share
- 1:10:39because of how good it was made.
- 1:10:42but I don't think it's
- 1:10:43reached out outside much.
- 1:10:46I don't know.
- 1:10:46Let me be devil's advocate.
- 1:10:48Yes.
- 1:10:49I'm not young.
- 1:10:50I don't understand a lot of,
- 1:10:52I don't know a lot of the
- 1:10:55young kid stuff.
- 1:10:57She was dating someone that
- 1:10:58was a celebrity.
- 1:11:01With that,
- 1:11:02her audience herself probably grew.
- 1:11:07There are rumors out there
- 1:11:09that she is talking to
- 1:11:11someone else who is a
- 1:11:12celebrity ish outside of
- 1:11:15the CrossFit space.
- 1:11:18Those types of things.
- 1:11:20If she puts out content like that,
- 1:11:23we'll reach outside our base.
- 1:11:31I would think it would
- 1:11:31already have more views if
- 1:11:32she has a true celebrity.
- 1:11:36Yeah.
- 1:11:38on the back burner.
- 1:11:39All right.
- 1:11:40I would kill for that.
- 1:11:42Well, I know, but like,
- 1:11:47like a Kardashian video is
- 1:11:49going to have a million hits in 24 hours.
- 1:11:55Yeah,
- 1:11:55but we're just trying to take baby steps.
- 1:11:57We got 300 some people that
- 1:11:59just signed up for the open.
- 1:12:00There's easily 300,000
- 1:12:01people who want to consume everything.
- 1:12:04crossfit content and only
- 1:12:06you said it's 160 right now
- 1:12:08like not even last I knew
- 1:12:12it's got to me to me that
- 1:12:13it's doing great for him
- 1:12:15but it's not and if you're
- 1:12:17talking about numbers like
- 1:12:18that's right to me it's
- 1:12:21still not that high it's
- 1:12:22not it would be nice for it
- 1:12:24to be higher like it's a
- 1:12:26great hillary did an
- 1:12:27amazing job with that piece
- 1:12:29and obviously worked very
- 1:12:30hard on it I would like to
- 1:12:31see it further than that
- 1:12:35Okay.
- 1:12:37Debbie Downers.
- 1:12:38I don't know.
- 1:12:39I hear you.
- 1:12:42We're greedy.
- 1:12:43So the next thing is,
- 1:12:44last week on the show we
- 1:12:45announced that seven games
- 1:12:47athletes from last year are
- 1:12:49not competing this year.
- 1:12:51That number has grown
- 1:12:53exponentially to 11 since
- 1:12:55we made that announcement last week.
- 1:12:58Mm-hmm.
- 1:12:59And just to give you a list of who that is,
- 1:13:01Emma Carey announced that
- 1:13:03she's taking time for her religion.
- 1:13:05Amy Thor's daughter's pregnant.
- 1:13:07Jamie Simmons is going team.
- 1:13:09Kelly Baker is trying to start a family.
- 1:13:12Christine Kohler-Brander has
- 1:13:13a back injury.
- 1:13:14Alexia Williams is apparently hurt.
- 1:13:18That was not on her list last week.
- 1:13:20Mathilde Garnes is going team with Noah.
- 1:13:25Ella Vunger is going team.
- 1:13:27I did not have that on the list last week.
- 1:13:30Michelle Baznett did not
- 1:13:31register for the open.
- 1:13:33So that's another one out.
- 1:13:35Shahad Budebs did not
- 1:13:37register for the open.
- 1:13:39So she will not be back.
- 1:13:40She was excited to watch the games.
- 1:13:42She was.
- 1:13:43And she's so fast.
- 1:13:51Um, Emily DeRoy, uh, was going team.
- 1:13:54We announced that last week.
- 1:13:55Um, so those are the 11.
- 1:13:59So of the 40, 25, 26, 28%, uh,
- 1:14:02are not coming back.
- 1:14:07Did you also look at how
- 1:14:08many moved to the East region?
- 1:14:10Yeah.
- 1:14:13How darn East region.
- 1:14:14Uh, uh,
- 1:14:18I know.
- 1:14:20I don't know.
- 1:14:20We know Tia's in there.
- 1:14:22Well, Tia got in her exemption,
- 1:14:24which that irks me.
- 1:14:27That's not what that was for.
- 1:14:30That exemption was not for
- 1:14:31people to have convenience.
- 1:14:33It was for people who couldn't travel.
- 1:14:38But here we are.
- 1:14:40Yep.
- 1:14:41And
- 1:14:44Yeah, you're adding Tia now to the East.
- 1:14:48Freya moved to the East.
- 1:14:52Bailey Rail.
- 1:14:53Christopher.
- 1:14:54Oh, is she going to compete in East now?
- 1:14:57Did I say Tia?
- 1:14:59Apparently now she's living
- 1:15:00with her husband.
- 1:15:06And Haley's back in the East.
- 1:15:07Yeah, Haley's back in the East.
- 1:15:09And then
- 1:15:11I mean, Weiss,
- 1:15:13who was on the team in the
- 1:15:15West with Invictus,
- 1:15:17is now back in the East.
- 1:15:19Oh, geez.
- 1:15:20Yeah, there's a lot.
- 1:15:25Yeah.
- 1:15:26I think there's more added than removed.
- 1:15:29Yeah, we've only, like,
- 1:15:30really removed one with Emma Carey,
- 1:15:33and I think we gained at
- 1:15:35least four or five.
- 1:15:36Oh, Chloe Wilson,
- 1:15:37which is another one that's always, like,
- 1:15:38a bubble, like,
- 1:15:40can be a games athlete.
- 1:15:41She's now in the East.
- 1:15:42Oh my gosh.
- 1:15:44Well, and speaking of her,
- 1:15:48she has infamously missed
- 1:15:51the games by a point a couple of times.
- 1:15:56Last year was like a couple
- 1:15:58of places in a very tough competition.
- 1:16:03She has taken a sabbatical
- 1:16:04from being a firefighter to
- 1:16:06train full time.
- 1:16:08Do you think that makes a
- 1:16:09difference this year?
- 1:16:14yeah,
- 1:16:15but she should have stayed in the West.
- 1:16:16I was just about to say, I mean,
- 1:16:19she just made things.
- 1:16:20We're only going to get one
- 1:16:21more spot and you add, you just added.
- 1:16:24And then you, you add, you know,
- 1:16:26people like Brooke who was
- 1:16:28injured last year and you
- 1:16:30still have a butt.
- 1:16:30Like you're, you're not, you're only,
- 1:16:32you're going to add one spot.
- 1:16:33You're going to have 12,
- 1:16:34let's say 12 maximum in the
- 1:16:37last two years.
- 1:16:38When you add, when you add those athletes,
- 1:16:40um,
- 1:16:41there's like 16 or 17
- 1:16:45individual games athletes
- 1:16:46in the East of the last two years,
- 1:16:48something like that.
- 1:16:49Maybe almost 18 or something.
- 1:16:51There's only 40 spots to semifinals.
- 1:16:54Think about all the good
- 1:16:55semifinal athletes too.
- 1:16:57And some of the ones that
- 1:16:58are coming out of nowhere
- 1:16:59this year that are young and whatever,
- 1:17:01like that top 40 in the,
- 1:17:03in the East is not the same
- 1:17:05as a top 40 in Asia or another region.
- 1:17:09Like it's, it's very competitive.
- 1:17:10Yeah.
- 1:17:13I wish that the DeHaan method, whatever,
- 1:17:17within the top 100, if you're first,
- 1:17:20you get 100 points.
- 1:17:21If you're 100, you get one point,
- 1:17:24let's say.
- 1:17:25Because where, let's say, people are,
- 1:17:28some regions are more
- 1:17:30top-heavy than others.
- 1:17:32You can have maybe as many people.
- 1:17:35Let's say two regions have
- 1:17:3620 athletes within the top,
- 1:17:38but you've got 20 within
- 1:17:39the top 50 and 20 in the bottom.
- 1:17:42Completely different.
- 1:17:44Like Europe is stacked too for the females,
- 1:17:48right?
- 1:17:48Like that's what 40 there is too.
- 1:17:53I wish there was a certain type of tier.
- 1:17:55I don't know how it would affect the spots,
- 1:17:58but it would be interesting to look at.
- 1:18:00I don't know.
- 1:18:05I don't understand the
- 1:18:06arbitrary 40 number.
- 1:18:09Like, I don't know.
- 1:18:12I think with the sport
- 1:18:14growing the way it is,
- 1:18:15it'd be okay to have 50
- 1:18:17people at the games.
- 1:18:19If you're going to have cuts anyway,
- 1:18:20what makes a difference?
- 1:18:21Good point.
- 1:18:23Yeah.
- 1:18:28Just saying.
- 1:18:30So the last thing I have is...
- 1:18:34This has hit my radar in the last week.
- 1:18:36I saw a trailer last week.
- 1:18:37Didn't really bring it up,
- 1:18:39but I wanted to bring it up this week.
- 1:18:40And that is apparently
- 1:18:42Daniel Brandon is doing a documentary.
- 1:18:47And the second trailer was
- 1:18:48released like last night, maybe.
- 1:18:51Looks good.
- 1:18:52And so I'm pulling that up now.
- 1:18:54I think it's this one.
- 1:19:00The relationship with my aunt and uncle.
- 1:19:03was just, I don't know,
- 1:19:05they just kind of took a
- 1:19:06turn for the worst.
- 1:19:09I'd be like, hey,
- 1:19:10do you want me to take you home?
- 1:19:11She'd be like, no,
- 1:19:11maybe I come hang out with you,
- 1:19:13or maybe I go to the gym.
- 1:19:16And I think as we got older,
- 1:19:17I started to hear a little bit more.
- 1:19:20It started to make more
- 1:19:23sense why she maybe didn't
- 1:19:25want to go back home until
- 1:19:26everyone was asleep or
- 1:19:27until she could go straight to bed.
- 1:19:34Does it say where it's going to be out?
- 1:19:36Like on YouTube?
- 1:19:41It's going to be good.
- 1:19:42I don't know.
- 1:19:42The print's pretty small and
- 1:19:47I'm pretty blind.
- 1:19:48Yeah, I don't know.
- 1:19:57Whatever it is though, I got to see it.
- 1:20:01I've heard rumors about the
- 1:20:02way her childhood was and I
- 1:20:04can't and I'm I hope that
- 1:20:07this is therapeutic for her
- 1:20:11um and helps her uh there's
- 1:20:14something about rad in the
- 1:20:15small print and I don't
- 1:20:18know I'd have to like
- 1:20:19freeze frame it and blow it up
- 1:20:22But when the first trailer came out,
- 1:20:24I was caught off guard
- 1:20:25because of the people who
- 1:20:27are speaking in the documentary.
- 1:20:29Same.
- 1:20:29I was pressing Justin there.
- 1:20:32When I saw Justin, that floored me.
- 1:20:37Same.
- 1:20:42Because I know that breakup
- 1:20:45was not pretty.
- 1:20:48It's crazy because from an
- 1:20:49outsider's perspective, you saw
- 1:20:52that connection at the
- 1:20:54semifinal when she won the sword one,
- 1:20:58which one, which one's that syndicate Mac,
- 1:21:02Mac, whatever one,
- 1:21:04like he's so invested in
- 1:21:06his athletes too.
- 1:21:07Right.
- 1:21:07Like he was like all in on her too.
- 1:21:10And then when that separation happened,
- 1:21:13you were like, Whoa, but like,
- 1:21:15we only see as, you know, observers.
- 1:21:18It's like,
- 1:21:19we don't really know what happens,
- 1:21:21what happened really.
- 1:21:22because I'm sure both sides
- 1:21:24have different perspectives.
- 1:21:26Well, and like,
- 1:21:28I think I'm pretty close
- 1:21:30with Justin and his family.
- 1:21:31And when you care about someone so much,
- 1:21:35that's what makes it hurt
- 1:21:36more when those things happen.
- 1:21:39Right.
- 1:21:42Like he wanted nothing but
- 1:21:43the best for her.
- 1:21:45And then when, when this,
- 1:21:46when it all blew up,
- 1:21:47like everybody was hurt.
- 1:21:51And some people got angry
- 1:21:52and some people just tried
- 1:21:55to get through it.
- 1:21:57So when I saw him as one of
- 1:21:59the interviewees for this documentary,
- 1:22:02I was shocked.
- 1:22:06Because I know how hurt he was.
- 1:22:12And, and what I'll say,
- 1:22:13like every time I have
- 1:22:15interacted with Danielle,
- 1:22:17it has been extremely pleasant.
- 1:22:19She has been super kind to me.
- 1:22:21She has been super nice to me.
- 1:22:23Um,
- 1:22:24she's been on the show like three times.
- 1:22:27Um,
- 1:22:30But there's always this air of, like,
- 1:22:33there's something going on.
- 1:22:35And we've talked about it as an athlete.
- 1:22:38You have to keep your head in the game.
- 1:22:41And that has left her at
- 1:22:42times at big moments.
- 1:22:44And I think this is going to
- 1:22:47help us understand why that
- 1:22:49happens sometimes.
- 1:22:51Yeah.
- 1:22:55So I'm, I'm invested.
- 1:22:57It's later this month that comes out.
- 1:23:00Um,
- 1:23:00I think after the last week of the open,
- 1:23:04um,
- 1:23:05and the friend that talked in that piece,
- 1:23:07like I've seen her at
- 1:23:08events with Danielle.
- 1:23:10So they're still tight today.
- 1:23:13Um, whoever that is.
- 1:23:15So who's, who's put like, I just like,
- 1:23:20who's sharing these reels, just her.
- 1:23:23I saw Cooper Cooper's shared it.
- 1:23:26Okay.
- 1:23:27Um, a lot of people shared the first one.
- 1:23:31If I, a lot of people who appeared in it,
- 1:23:33like in that clip shared that first one.
- 1:23:38Cause I think Cooper's in that clip.
- 1:23:40Um, her mom's in the clip.
- 1:23:46Um,
- 1:23:49Yeah, now I'm drawing a blank.
- 1:23:51Dave, I thought I remember.
- 1:23:52Dave Castro's in the clip.
- 1:23:54Yeah,
- 1:23:57I'm just really curious who paid for this,
- 1:24:00who put this on, for what?
- 1:24:02Yeah, it just kind of, well, here,
- 1:24:06I'll just show you the first trailer.
- 1:24:09It doesn't take very long.
- 1:24:15I think this is it.
- 1:24:15Shoot.
- 1:24:18Shoot.
- 1:24:38And the first part that we
- 1:24:47missed is her walking in
- 1:24:49and the Dave piece.
- 1:25:02I feel like it's got to be Rad.
- 1:25:03I don't know who else would put.
- 1:25:05So Rad is the bottom left
- 1:25:07that I could read.
- 1:25:08And then the middle is directed by,
- 1:25:10but I couldn't read the name.
- 1:25:15And I don't see a date.
- 1:25:20It was like the 27th or
- 1:25:21something in March.
- 1:25:27Yeah.
- 1:25:283-27-24.
- 1:25:28Yeah.
- 1:25:31But no details.
- 1:25:32All her post said was,
- 1:25:34everybody loves a good story, 3-27-24.
- 1:25:36Hmm.
- 1:25:36Interesting.
- 1:25:36So...
- 1:25:44Yeah, I'm excited for it.
- 1:25:46Um, we, we missed Alan Pepper.
- 1:25:49He's in there as one of the interviewees.
- 1:25:52Um, I don't know who the bearded person is,
- 1:25:54Kenneth.
- 1:25:55Um, it could be a family member.
- 1:25:59Um, her mom is the one with the tattoos.
- 1:26:02Um, I've met her.
- 1:26:05So we think, do you think it'll, uh,
- 1:26:09surpass Haley's video right off the gate?
- 1:26:17Yeah.
- 1:26:19I don't know.
- 1:26:20That'll be fun to watch.
- 1:26:26I think so.
- 1:26:29All right.
- 1:26:31Well,
- 1:26:32that's all we have on the agenda for
- 1:26:34tonight.
- 1:26:37Guys, I'm procrastinating packing.
- 1:26:38I'm getting up at 5 a.m.
- 1:26:39tomorrow to leave.
- 1:26:41Start packing.
- 1:26:43You sound like me.
- 1:26:45That's what I do too.
- 1:26:46I've done this too many times.
- 1:26:54Good luck this weekend.
- 1:26:57Tell Lex I said hi.
- 1:27:00Do well.
- 1:27:00Get those double unders down.
- 1:27:03I'm like the little giants.
- 1:27:05He's talking to his hands.
- 1:27:10I do that before my double unders.
- 1:27:12It's going to be a good day.
- 1:27:13Come on.
- 1:27:16There you go.
- 1:27:20You have good days and bad days.
- 1:27:23I have good days and many bad days.
- 1:27:27You might have to redo it.
- 1:27:32My PR is 100, I think, unbroken,
- 1:27:35if I'm being honest.
- 1:27:36Maybe 120 a few times in my life.
- 1:27:42It's nuts.
- 1:27:44I'm good normally between 30 and 50.
- 1:27:46That's a range I can – it's small enough.
- 1:27:50The moment I have 300 on the spot,
- 1:27:53it's bad.
- 1:27:55So download Little Giants.
- 1:27:58Icebox.
- 1:27:58Watch it on the plane.
- 1:28:01Get your inspiration.
- 1:28:05Call me Becky.
- 1:28:06I can't wait for the movie.
- 1:28:08You put the eye black on to
- 1:28:09do this workout?
- 1:28:12Next week,
- 1:28:13I do the pull-ups in the closet
- 1:28:14for the chest of ours,
- 1:28:15and then I'm on the little box.
- 1:28:18Yeah.
- 1:28:21There we go.
- 1:28:23All right, guys.
- 1:28:24Well, it's been fun.
- 1:28:25You guys are the best, as always.
- 1:28:27That was a fun wrap-up,
- 1:28:30and we will get on to next week.
- 1:28:33We'll be back with 24.3,
- 1:28:36and it'll be the end of the Open.
- 1:28:38Yay.
- 1:28:39And then we get to talk
- 1:28:40about the fun stuff like
- 1:28:41quarterfinals and who's moving on.
- 1:28:46Your quarterfinals are
- 1:28:48earlier than the individuals.
- 1:28:51One big group.
- 1:28:54Teams?
- 1:28:54Oh, you mean teams?
- 1:28:55Yeah, that's April 8th.
- 1:28:57Yeah.
- 1:28:58We got a lot of work to do
- 1:29:00to make quarterfinals.
- 1:29:02All right.
- 1:29:03You guys might have to redo
- 1:29:06some workouts then.
- 1:29:08Yeah, we'll see how this week goes.
- 1:29:10Good luck.
