Crossfit, boobies, music on repeat.
0:41
Half hour hustle, yeah,
0:42
we building that brand.
0:44
Grab a plate, tune in now,
0:47
you part of the fam.
0:51
What is going on, everybody?
0:53
Welcome to Lunch with the Clydesdales.
0:56
Pelson is prioritizing other people over
0:59
us.
1:00
That's because we're number two.
1:01
No, no.
1:03
He said, sorry, Siobhan and Taylor.
1:04
He's going to catch up with their show
1:05
after.
1:06
I'm so used to being number two,
1:08
like I'd misread it.
1:09
Sorry.
1:10
I misread it.
1:13
It happens.
1:14
So we actually changed some buttons
1:19
around.
1:20
Huh?
1:21
We changed some buttons around.
1:23
Maybe it's going to reduce some echo.
1:26
We're going to give it a shot.
1:27
Only one way to find out.
1:31
Only one way to find out.
1:33
Yeehaw, it's a cowboy.
1:36
Carolyn is in the house.
1:39
She's saying, hello.
1:42
Hello.
1:43
Hello, Carolyn.
1:45
So the first thing I just wanted to
1:47
talk about really quickly is yesterday we
1:50
were talking about boys interrupted
1:53
fatigue.
1:53
Absolutely.
1:54
Absolutely.
1:55
And it got clipped,
1:57
and people made comments about the clip.
2:01
And what I love is the instant reaction
2:06
without even listening to the words that
2:08
are coming out of my mouth.
2:11
It's my favorite.
2:12
Right.
2:14
It's my absolute favorite.
2:15
As Chris Tucker said in Rush Hour.
2:17
Yeah.
2:18
Can you hear the words coming out of
2:20
my mouth?
2:20
Yeah.
2:22
Do you understand the words that are
2:24
coming out of my mouth?
2:26
They don't.
2:27
And it's not that they don't understand.
2:28
They didn't actually listen to a word you
2:31
said.
2:32
Because I said, I don't blame the boys.
2:35
The boys are doing everything right.
2:37
Yeah, love those dudes.
2:39
Dallin is probably my favorite male
2:41
athlete right now.
2:44
I got Dallin picked to win the games.
2:47
I love the boys,
2:49
but CrossFit has leaned into them a
2:53
hundred percent at the expense of other
2:56
athletes.
3:00
That has nothing to do with the boys
3:03
whatsoever.
3:05
Correct.
3:07
I watch boys interrupted every week.
3:10
I choose to go do that.
3:12
I don't need CrossFit to keep giving them
3:16
more and more and more, though, right?
3:19
At some point, the fatigue hits you,
3:21
and it's only going to hurt them.
3:24
It's like that old joke.
3:28
My dad caught me smoking a cigarette,
3:30
so he made me smoke a whole pack
3:31
of cigarettes.
3:31
Oh, you like cigarettes?
3:34
CrossFit is like, oh, you like the boys?
3:36
All right, good.
3:37
We give you all of the boys all
3:39
the time.
3:40
Yeah.
3:41
And it's,
3:42
it's happening with Lucy Campbell too.
3:45
Yeah.
3:45
She's everywhere.
3:46
And I love Lucy.
3:47
Me too.
3:49
One of my favorite people, but like,
3:53
so my question to you is you have
3:55
these personalities that have shown that
3:58
they have a
4:01
that thing right that people are attracted
4:04
to sure one of them is harry lightfoot
4:07
right the guy is hilarious he's
4:10
charismatic do you think we're not getting
4:13
him because crossfit is broke and they
4:16
can't send a team overseas the thought has
4:19
crossed my mind well they're just not
4:23
they're just not willing to spend the
4:24
money
4:26
way or another and i don't think it
4:28
would take a whole lot to find somebody
4:30
in harry's orbit and say hey i'm gonna
4:35
pay you whatever whatever i don't know i
4:38
have no idea what the going rate for
4:39
that would be to get some footage you
4:42
know twenty four hours with harry
4:44
lightfoot as he's preparing for whatever
4:49
send that to us we'll cut it up
4:50
and put it out
4:52
Or like for his quarterfinals that didn't
4:55
get aired on his own channel.
4:57
Hey,
4:58
go spend the weekend and film
5:00
quarterfinals.
5:02
Yeah.
5:03
And let's do that as a road to
5:05
the games.
5:07
or go spend a weekend with him coaching
5:10
and training and doing all of the things
5:11
like to show what he does.
5:12
Cause if you, I talked to him,
5:14
he's a coach before he's anything else.
5:16
I'm just saying like,
5:17
if you wanted to condense it into a
5:19
weekend,
5:20
like we just got on road to the
5:21
games, right.
5:23
That was quarterfinals instead of redoing
5:26
what the boys interrupted already done
5:28
themselves.
5:31
why not contract somebody over in europe
5:36
to film harry for a weekend it just
5:43
it didn't have to be harry before
5:44
everybody comes in here right anybody like
5:48
there are plenty of freelancers that would
5:50
take the job
5:53
He was at the games last year.
5:54
He is an up-and-comer.
5:55
He has been at Rogue.
5:57
He has shown that he has a personality
6:00
that sells.
6:02
People love that dude.
6:05
I'm one of them.
6:07
Hell, Pedro's not that far.
6:11
Yeah.
6:12
Pedro's done work for CrossFit before.
6:15
Send Pedro over there.
6:17
Pedro does good work.
6:19
We get good stuff out of him.
6:22
leader says I'm guessing money.
6:23
Yeah, that's what I'm guessing too.
6:26
But I think that like,
6:28
I think CrossFit has done a lot with
6:30
the media lately,
6:31
and a lot of good things.
6:34
But out of the box thinking is not
6:37
one of their best things.
6:40
No.
6:40
They just think it always has to be
6:42
done the traditional way.
6:43
Yeah.
6:45
They definitely had flashes.
6:48
stuff that you're like oh okay this is
6:49
cool and then they just you have the
6:53
stuff that you're comfortable with and the
6:56
whole entire point of crossfit is getting
6:58
comfortable with being uncomfortable yeah
7:02
um so yeah i just i just wanted
7:06
to bring that up because the comments are
7:10
wild right like oh dude
7:13
And not just on what happened yesterday,
7:15
but Holly put all that work into putting
7:19
out the master's leaderboards from online
7:21
semis with an asterisk that said,
7:25
these are unofficial.
7:28
And then you get a comment saying, hey,
7:30
let's hold up.
7:31
Video review isn't done.
7:35
And in the meantime,
7:37
people are scrambling to go see
7:40
who's in where what's in who's in blah
7:42
blah whatever so we got a comment
7:48
yesterday that said that if your ice
7:51
wasn't cold or you would complain which is
7:55
probably a valid complaint and like i feel
7:59
like these people who are who are about
8:01
stuff like this they just want something
8:03
to about
8:05
They literally just want something to
8:07
complain about because God forbid somebody
8:11
did something on their own volition,
8:13
on their own time,
8:14
on their own dime to put something out
8:17
useful for the entire community with an
8:20
asterisk by it saying, hey,
8:22
this is not official,
8:23
but this is what it looks like as
8:25
of right now.
8:27
And people come on there and go, well,
8:28
why didn't you just wait till it was
8:30
all done?
8:30
And there's other people going on there
8:32
and say, well,
8:32
why didn't you put it up when it
8:33
was official?
8:34
Right.
8:35
She didn't have to do any of that
8:36
at all.
8:41
Seema Boobs.
8:42
I'm not going to the leaderboard to check.
8:44
I appreciate her post because it makes me
8:46
pay attention to us old folks.
8:49
Straight up.
8:50
And she does that all because she loves
8:54
this stuff.
8:56
And she's a certified nerd.
8:57
She'll tell you that herself.
8:58
Yep.
9:01
Trent Olive,
9:02
I think all the big names in the
9:03
men's, thirty-five to forty-nine,
9:05
would be a great road to the games.
9:08
You could even condense that for like one
9:10
road to the games,
9:11
thirty-five to thirty-nine,
9:12
and maybe you had a typo.
9:14
I don't know.
9:15
But with Travis Mayer, Noah Olsen,
9:17
Sam Dancer, Scott Panczyk, Con Porter,
9:22
that'd be a really cool road to the
9:25
games.
9:25
Marquand Jones.
9:26
Yeah.
9:27
Yeah.
9:29
It just keeps going.
9:36
If the ice is too cold,
9:37
it sticks to your lips.
9:38
Valid.
9:39
Valid complaint.
9:43
Never had ice that cold, I guess.
9:48
Travis Williams.
9:52
Travis Williams is going to make his own
9:53
road to the games.
9:54
Yeah.
9:55
Just him.
9:56
Travis has always made his own road.
9:58
A hundred percent.
9:59
In more ways than one.
10:02
Yeah.
10:04
And yes, thank you.
10:06
Kid Lito's quote right there.
10:08
Please, sir.
10:09
Another reason why those posts are so good
10:11
is because then someone gets a penalty.
10:13
You can go back to that and compare
10:16
as the official CrossFit leaderboard
10:18
doesn't give you a history option.
10:22
All it does is update, which is fair.
10:25
That's all it needs to do.
10:26
But what Holly's doing is putting out
10:29
stuff that you can go back and look
10:31
at it.
10:31
Cause her post is not going to update.
10:33
She might put out a later one at
10:35
some other point,
10:36
but her post is going to be, Hey,
10:37
this is what it looked like at the
10:38
close.
10:39
Like whenever everything got closed, boom,
10:41
this is what the first leaderboard looked
10:42
like.
10:43
And as people get penalties,
10:43
you can go back and look, Oh,
10:45
this dude dropped.
10:46
That must've been pretty serious.
10:50
Because unless you're writing it down,
10:51
bro, you ain't going to know.
10:54
Yeah,
10:54
and I don't think anybody's screenshotting
10:56
the leaderboards.
10:57
Well,
10:58
I am betting there are people that are
11:00
affected by those leaderboards
11:02
screenshotting them to see the fall.
11:04
Absolutely.
11:06
But it's a great point by Lito that
11:09
now we have a record of what it
11:11
was at eight p.m.
11:15
Actually, three p.m.
11:16
Monday.
11:18
And what may change to that over the
11:21
coming weeks.
11:26
CrossFit has all that data and does so
11:27
little with it.
11:29
I know.
11:30
That's why we have Holly.
11:32
Holly has found a way to extract that
11:34
information from the leaderboard into her
11:38
database.
11:39
And she's quick, dude.
11:43
Yep.
11:43
For what she says out,
11:44
she is absurdly fast.
11:49
Yep.
11:51
I'd love to know how their training has
11:53
changed, if at all, for Masters,
11:54
especially with a family and other
11:56
responsibilities.
11:59
I think it would be a great,
12:02
great road to the games.
12:04
Oh, it'd be fascinating.
12:05
I'm actually considering not...
12:10
covering the games live,
12:12
but going for the beginning of the week
12:14
and covering the Masters.
12:17
And then heading home and doing recap
12:19
shows from here.
12:22
I mean, being there is one thing,
12:25
like for the actual games,
12:26
because you're going to see some stuff
12:28
other people don't see,
12:29
but it is easier to follow, I find,
12:31
if you're watching it on TV,
12:32
because you get all the live recaps and
12:33
whatnot from the death show.
12:36
Not that I wouldn't want to be at
12:37
the games by any stretch of the
12:39
imagination,
12:39
but I just think it's easier to follow.
12:43
Kate.
12:45
My only fear is...
12:48
that if bob and joe have say over
12:50
the media credentials i may not get one
12:53
for the masters because i am apparently
12:57
enemy number one for that you act like
12:58
there's a history there oh wait uh kate
13:04
i one hundred percent screenshot the
13:06
leaderboard we got your back too we got
13:09
your back too kate's fantastic i got to
13:13
hang out and uh in birmingham she's good
13:16
she's good people
13:18
Yeah,
13:18
I could always watch Corinne's broadcast
13:20
of the games too.
13:28
There we go.
13:29
I thought she did a fantastic job, FYI.
13:33
You know what else does a fantastic job?
13:36
Thirdsy.
13:39
Thirdsy helps you sleep and recover,
13:41
and you know you're not going to get
13:42
busted by a drug test because it is
13:45
third-party tested itself.
13:47
You can get fifteen percent off Thursday
13:49
if you want the best night's sleep of
13:51
your life.
13:52
And you can do that by going to
13:54
Thursday dot com backslash jazzy.
13:57
Get fifteen percent off.
13:59
Use promo code jazzy at checkout.
14:03
Also, that gets you fifteen percent off.
14:06
Thank you, Thursday,
14:06
for all you do for us.
14:09
Fantastic.
14:09
Beautiful.
14:11
The thirty five year old is going to
14:12
be crazy.
14:13
Great idea, Scott.
14:15
Well,
14:15
I don't think people are lining up to
14:17
cover the Masters.
14:20
And that's why I've been trying to do
14:21
it for the last couple of years.
14:23
But the organizers of the Masters division
14:25
and I have not seen eye to eye
14:27
on a lot of stuff.
14:29
And so I am not confident that we
14:32
are going to get access to anything.
14:36
I could stand outside and get them as
14:38
they come out.
14:39
Let's qualify that a bit.
14:42
You have done nothing but try to help
14:44
them.
14:47
yep got them interns last year for the
14:49
broadcast you did it and my thanks for
14:54
that was i got to sit in the
14:56
hall and interview people the year before
15:00
that let's talk about that and the eleven
15:03
part
15:05
documentary that you made that is still on
15:07
youtube fyi please people go look at it
15:10
and check it out because it's really well
15:12
done that they did not share did not
15:16
put any part of promote any part of
15:18
of their own event did not give any
15:24
kind of even recognition to and it was
15:27
you covering their event yep didn't even
15:32
promote the
15:35
The documentary doll.
15:37
Absolutely insane.
15:39
Clydesdale crew will start a petition to
15:41
have you cover the masters because there's
15:43
no one better.
15:43
Well, thank you very much.
15:46
So Grant's in here talking a little bit
15:50
of smack.
15:51
It's because it's Grant.
15:52
He knows how to talk.
15:53
He's really good at it.
15:54
Well,
15:55
I watched his show this morning and I
15:56
have a reaction to that.
16:00
So hopefully he doesn't.
16:02
hang a neon sign of a horse penis
16:04
behind himself um after what I say now
16:09
but uh to represent an update from the
16:13
Clydesdale or anything like that got it
16:15
Clydesdale updates um but what I want to
16:19
say is and it's not just him there's
16:22
a lot of blame about what's going on
16:24
in the semi-final season being thrown at
16:26
Dave
16:30
I don't think that is,
16:32
I do not think that that makes sense.
16:38
I think that CrossFit HQ removed
16:44
themselves from semifinals.
16:49
They handed it over to a bunch of
16:52
third parties to run semifinals and gave
16:56
them no money to do so.
17:00
No money, no help, no nothing.
17:03
To then think when you hand that off
17:07
that you have any say over how they
17:09
program or how they do anything in running
17:14
their event,
17:15
you have given up that right when you
17:19
decided to give it to them and give
17:21
them no support.
17:25
And that decision did not come from Dave.
17:26
No.
17:30
They gave it to the Northern California
17:32
Classic, for Christ's sake,
17:33
that had a bucket hold for time a
17:36
couple years ago.
17:40
And we're like, hey,
17:42
you guys should qualify.
17:43
And nothing against them,
17:44
because their stuff is,
17:46
it is what it is.
17:46
Everybody,
17:47
you know what you're getting into if you
17:48
go to the NCC.
17:49
It's not, it's not, it's not.
17:52
And they're good people.
17:55
I like them a whole lot.
17:56
But their event is a little weird.
17:58
And they know that it's a little weird,
18:00
and they're okay with it being a little
18:01
weird.
18:01
Everybody who goes there knows it's going
18:03
to be a little weird.
18:04
And CrossFit was like, hey, Figo,
18:08
you guys should qualify people to the
18:09
games.
18:10
Do whatever you're going to do.
18:13
What I'm saying is,
18:16
Those event organizers have been doing
18:18
this for a long time.
18:19
NorCal Classic has been around well before
18:22
they were a semifinal.
18:23
Syndicate Crown was the MAC before that,
18:26
and they've been around forever, right?
18:28
And French Throwdown's been around for ten
18:31
years, right?
18:32
So you hand this off to Torian.
18:34
Hell,
18:35
they've been around since the beginning of
18:37
CrossFit.
18:37
Since the beginning of CrossFit, yeah.
18:39
So to hand these experienced event
18:41
organizers...
18:43
all the responsibility,
18:45
all the liability of semifinals,
18:48
and then say, oh,
18:49
but you got to do it this way.
18:52
Nobody would sign up.
18:56
To do that is forcing regionals back on
18:59
them.
19:00
Hey, you can run it,
19:01
but you're not going to run it because
19:03
you're going to do what I tell you
19:04
to do.
19:04
That is essentially going, hey,
19:07
you're going to have regionals because
19:09
we're going to tell you what programming
19:11
you can have,
19:12
but we need you to put the rest
19:14
of it on yourself.
19:17
I don't think that if I am Wilson
19:19
Park, I sign up for that.
19:23
Why would I do all of this for
19:25
you if you're then going to turn around
19:27
and tell me how I can do it?
19:29
Right.
19:29
And you're not helping me with anything.
19:33
No.
19:33
You're just telling me what I can't do.
19:37
I wouldn't even sign up for that.
19:38
I'd just run my own event that I've
19:40
always run.
19:41
Yep.
19:45
Same.
19:46
And the other thing is,
19:47
all it's doing is making Dave more
19:49
invincible.
19:51
Because it is...
19:53
Everybody in the C-suite,
19:56
whatever the hell you want to call the
19:57
executive team, the board of directors,
20:00
Berkshire, nobody's lobbing bombs at them.
20:06
Dave takes it all.
20:08
Dave takes all the shots, all the slings,
20:11
all the arrows,
20:13
and everybody blames him when he has no
20:14
control.
20:18
I am fairly certain.
20:19
And he just takes it and moves on.
20:21
I am willing to place a decent-sized wager
20:24
that if Dave had his way,
20:30
Regitals never would have left.
20:34
I completely agree.
20:37
And they would still be doing it that
20:38
way instead of because now he's got to
20:40
look at that stuff.
20:41
And I know he says he doesn't look
20:42
at other people's programming,
20:43
but he goes to the events.
20:44
So he sees the programming.
20:46
It's not like he doesn't see like he
20:47
doesn't see what's going on around him.
20:49
And I guarantee you there's some stuff
20:51
that goes on at certain events and he
20:53
is grinding his lures.
20:57
And anytime he makes a comment about what
20:59
he sees, he gets ripped for that.
21:02
Yeah.
21:04
When he said,
21:05
I wouldn't have programmed Gwen,
21:07
he's ripped for that.
21:08
Yeah.
21:09
I would have programmed a run at Legends.
21:12
Gets ripped for that.
21:15
Yeah, he can't win.
21:17
Right, he just can't.
21:18
But the structure has been designed that
21:22
Dave is the front-facing guy that just
21:24
gets hammered.
21:30
Oh, my gosh.
21:31
At least...
21:32
Yeah, thanks.
21:33
At least Dave has you white knighting for
21:35
him.
21:36
Dave doesn't need me white knighting for
21:38
him.
21:39
All I'm saying that everybody that's
21:41
blaming him isn't looking deep enough as
21:44
to what the real problem is.
21:47
Not by half.
21:49
The real problem is that CrossFit gave up
21:53
control over the semifinals of their own
21:57
damn season because they were afraid of
22:00
the liability.
22:03
When Lazar died at the games,
22:05
they gave up as much,
22:06
they unloaded as much of the liability
22:10
from themselves that they could in the
22:13
following and subsequent seasons.
22:17
And now we're in a spot where they
22:20
have no control over the semifinals.
22:24
And everybody's still bitching at Dave
22:26
about it when he has zero input.
22:34
It's a straw man argument at this point.
22:37
You're yelling at him and there's no
22:38
reason to yell at him because he's
22:40
literally sitting there going, uh-huh,
22:44
uh-huh, uh-huh.
22:45
Oh, we're going to do it like that?
22:47
Okay, cool.
22:49
How would CrossFit take the control back?
22:51
Super simple.
22:53
Say next year's season is X, open,
22:58
quarterfinals, semifinals.
23:00
We are running them all.
23:02
That's the only way it can work.
23:05
Then you want to take shots at Dave?
23:07
Cool.
23:08
Go for it.
23:10
It's a super simple fix.
23:12
Whether they'll do that or not,
23:14
who the hell knows?
23:15
They're not going to.
23:20
My guess is we'll get some mishmash of
23:22
beef stew version of it when they half-ass
23:27
take it back.
23:28
Yeah.
23:30
Here we go.
23:30
People are delusional.
23:31
They want Froning to be CF, CEO,
23:36
JR to program the games,
23:37
all the streams to be high quality for
23:39
free on YouTube,
23:41
all the online competitions to have one
23:43
percent video review.
23:47
Yeah, we're not getting all that.
23:49
And I was thinking this this morning.
23:52
I wasn't going to bring it up today,
23:53
but every time someone suggests a new
23:56
programmer, it's Richard Jr.,
24:01
You're telling me there's no other
24:02
programmers in the world?
24:06
Who's programming Torian?
24:08
Nobody ever bitches about the programming
24:10
of Torian?
24:11
They get excited.
24:11
They released a workout this morning and
24:13
everybody in the comments was like, oh.
24:20
No, no, Rich and JR.
24:22
But Grant, Rich has a camp of people.
24:27
The conflict of interest is so huge.
24:32
So huge.
24:38
Bring back regional locks.
24:41
I am a proponent for regional locks.
24:43
That brings all the drama back to the
24:45
party.
24:47
A hundred percent.
24:50
There are a lot of great programmers in
24:53
the world and it always comes down to
24:55
those two people.
25:00
They just don't have the PR team.
25:02
I was about to say,
25:05
that's the difference is that everybody
25:06
who knows who Rich is and everybody knows
25:08
who JR is.
25:10
Rich does good programming.
25:12
JR does good programming.
25:14
Oh, okay.
25:14
Well, if that's the case,
25:15
then those two people,
25:16
because I know who they are.
25:18
It's like people think, you know,
25:20
when you talk about the greatest
25:21
basketball player ever, well,
25:23
who's the greatest right now?
25:24
Because that's who I give a shit about,
25:26
who I hear about.
25:27
all they care about oh i i know
25:29
that name yeah yeah i know that guy
25:31
should definitely do it when like you said
25:34
whoever's programming torian does a damn
25:36
fine job whoever's programming all these
25:39
cops pick something dude all over the
25:41
place they're putting they're putting
25:43
together some pretty good stuff i'm just
25:45
saying i mean i even
25:52
Yeah, I don't know.
25:53
And the other issue is these comps are
25:57
not making money and they're not getting
25:59
help from CrossFit.
26:00
So they have to take sponsor money.
26:03
And if it's an equipment brand,
26:05
they're going to have to implement that
26:07
machine, that implement,
26:09
whatever it may be,
26:11
into the programming to keep their
26:15
Yeah.
26:15
To keep their event running.
26:17
I would love to know the number that
26:20
Stepper threw at Legends for them to get
26:23
that thing in there.
26:24
Because from what everybody says,
26:25
it was last minute that they changed it
26:27
up.
26:28
Because I imagine it had to be pretty
26:29
substantial for them to go, oh, okay,
26:31
yeah, sure.
26:32
We'll just put these two in there and
26:34
change it up.
26:35
Completely.
26:36
More or less.
26:38
Sure, fine.
26:40
For the same reason, dude.
26:42
They still want to come out.
26:43
They can't run it at a loss.
26:46
And then what, what happens next year?
26:48
It goes away completely.
26:49
Why?
26:49
Cause they lost their ass on it.
26:53
Right.
26:56
I heard nothing but good things about the
26:59
stepper machines other than used in a comp
27:04
at damper.
27:05
Right.
27:07
Everybody says their stair master thing is
27:09
phenomenal.
27:12
Because you can use it like in a
27:13
place that's got a short ceiling or
27:15
shorter ceiling.
27:16
You got to step up that high.
27:20
Yeah, but damn, Scott,
27:21
the gosh darn ten erg thing that the
27:23
night before was a gosh darn travesty.
27:28
Grant,
27:29
if you've listened to my show at all,
27:30
you know that I am not a fan
27:32
of Joe and Bob.
27:33
We have had we talked about that top
27:35
of this show.
27:36
They don't like me.
27:37
Apparently,
27:39
I have not had a good relationship with
27:40
them.
27:41
I don't think it had to be on
27:43
damper ten.
27:45
And if it was the night before,
27:49
that's on them.
27:51
Yeah.
27:53
The timing is on them.
28:02
Mr. Google says Dave Watts programs,
28:05
Torian level three coach.
28:13
Miss Prevost,
28:13
the fact they programmed those machines at
28:15
Damper Ten made that sponsor look bad.
28:18
The machines itself weren't bad,
28:20
but I don't think programming Damper Ten
28:23
made them look good.
28:25
Again,
28:25
that's the programming that was out there.
28:30
But everybody that tried those machines in
28:32
the demo area raved about how well they
28:35
were built,
28:37
how it had different functionality,
28:40
depending on what you had it set to
28:42
and different things like that.
28:43
I think the damper ten was a horrible
28:45
idea.
28:51
Ed AI says he's an odd numbers guy,
28:53
so damper nine would have been his pick.
29:00
I would split the difference.
29:05
Let's go with five.
29:05
Put it in the middle somewhere.
29:08
Why put it at the hardest possible
29:10
setting?
29:11
That blows my mind completely.
29:14
Put it at number five.
29:15
Hey, don't touch it.
29:15
If you touch it, your event's over.
29:19
Don't touch the damper.
29:20
It is where it is.
29:21
Get up.
29:22
Get on the bike.
29:23
Get up.
29:23
Grab the handles for the skier.
29:25
Move right along.
29:26
Don't touch the damper.
29:26
You touch the damper, your thing's over.
29:28
Boom.
29:28
Easy fix.
29:29
Done.
29:30
it's because joe and bob are power
29:32
athletes and everything they program is to
29:35
get as much have you seen joe in
29:37
person yeah he is not a power athlete
29:41
he ain't no bigger than me go back
29:42
go back and look at when he was
29:43
doing the open and look at his numbers
29:49
i believe you but i'm just telling you
29:52
the dude ain't no bigger than i am
30:00
Thank God the games has nothing to do
30:01
with American Gladiators.
30:03
I agree.
30:04
I went off on that on Sunday night
30:06
too.
30:07
American Gladiators was fixed so that no
30:09
CrossFitter would win because the
30:11
CrossFitters win every fitness
30:12
competition.
30:14
So they rigged it.
30:16
So my girl Bailey and my guy Kyle
30:20
didn't win.
30:23
That's a crying chain.
30:27
I'll take the stepper if the monitor
30:28
doesn't error out as much as the C
30:30
two.
30:32
They're expensive.
30:33
Same.
30:34
Like the biker was like,
30:38
twenty-five hundred bucks was on sale for
30:41
two thousand.
30:43
Yeah.
30:45
And you can get a C two bike
30:46
for like nine hundred bucks.
30:48
Yup.
30:49
And you can get a, uh,
30:51
echo bike for also about nine hundred,
30:54
eight, eight, nine hundred bucks.
30:59
I just said that, Daniel.
31:00
I don't know if he's doing the Open
31:01
or not.
31:02
He might still be doing the Open.
31:05
But they may also view that as a
31:07
conflict of interest competing in a season
31:10
in which they are event coordinators.
31:21
One of them looks like they're on TRT,
31:24
so maybe that's why they aren't.
31:28
Bob had cancer last year.
31:30
I mean,
31:30
if you want to get serious about it,
31:32
that's probably why he hasn't been doing
31:34
the open.
31:35
Um, and again,
31:39
I thought I had a great relationship with
31:40
Joe.
31:40
We used to talk on the phone,
31:43
did a lot of things.
31:43
And then all that went crazy.
31:48
So I don't know what happened.
31:53
Um,
31:58
The syndicate workouts came out.
32:00
Yes.
32:03
I am not an expert on programming.
32:07
I'm going to put them up so everybody
32:08
can see.
32:15
What I found interesting is there's
32:17
definitely like,
32:19
and this is JR programming,
32:23
you get odd objects or things that you
32:25
don't see normally in JR programming,
32:28
and it did not disappoint with that.
32:32
The first event is ball till you fall.
32:36
Fifty D-ball squat cleans.
32:38
That's a hundred pound D-ball for men.
32:41
Seventy for women.
32:42
Fifty box jump overs.
32:44
Fifty forty echo calorie echo row
32:47
calories.
32:48
Forty burpees to target.
32:50
Fifty forty echo row calories.
32:53
And then back all the way back down.
32:56
So that is the first one.
32:58
Nice long chipper.
32:59
Twenty two minute cap.
33:03
Event two, four-time three rounds,
33:06
four-hundred-meter run,
33:07
four-hundred-forty GHD sit-ups,
33:10
seven rope climbs,
33:11
time cap fifteen minutes.
33:13
The rope climb is fourteen feet.
33:16
Men, four legless, three legs.
33:19
Women, three legless, four legs.
33:24
I'm curious what Carolyn thinks about the
33:26
rope climb scale for the women.
33:29
Because it's flipped.
33:32
Yeah,
33:32
I think we'll probably talk about it
33:34
Sunday night.
33:35
I'm sure.
33:38
Event three for time.
33:40
This is bicarb.
33:42
Three deadlifts,
33:43
fifty-foot front rack lunge.
33:45
Then six, nine, twelve,
33:48
fifteen on the deadlifts,
33:50
fifty-foot lunge.
33:52
The deadlifts are three fifty-five,
33:54
two fifty-five.
33:55
Front rack lunge, one thirty-five,
33:57
ninety-five.
34:01
Then just like magic city,
34:02
we have a semi-final Nate, um,
34:05
individual event for.
34:07
Ten rounds for ring muscle ups,
34:08
eight strict handstand pushups,
34:10
twelve dual kettlebell hang snatches.
34:14
So twelve dual kettlebell hang snatches is
34:18
going to be lit like, wow.
34:22
All right.
34:26
up boom rolling out your shoulders blowing
34:27
out your uh and then get up and
34:29
bring muscle ups and then the strict
34:30
handstand push-ups that's going to be fun
34:32
to watch um trip advisory event five for
34:40
time hundred foot handstand walk two
34:42
hundred foot wheel barrel push and pull
34:46
I cannot wait to see what that is.
34:49
One minute rest,
34:50
then a hundred double unders,
34:51
a hundred foot handstand walk,
34:53
two hundred foot wheelbarrow push and
34:56
pull.
34:57
Then you one minute rest,
35:00
two hundred foot wheelbarrow push and
35:01
pull, one hundred double unders,
35:02
a hundred foot handstand walk.
35:04
So if you didn't notice,
35:06
everything changes order in each set.
35:09
Yeah,
35:09
Brandon programs like this from time to
35:11
time.
35:11
The wheelbarrow is four fifty for the men
35:14
and
35:15
three sixty for the women so i'm assuming
35:20
and carolyn said there's a video of the
35:21
wheelbarrow on coffee pods and wads uh on
35:25
pedro's stuff so i'm assuming pick it up
35:29
walk forward with it get across some line
35:31
somewhere turn around pick it up pull it
35:35
back so push it forward and then pull
35:37
it back if i had if i'm i'm
35:39
assuming anyway uh
35:42
That's going to be interesting.
35:42
I like that.
35:43
That is old school games.
35:48
What was it called?
35:49
Do you remember the sandbag?
35:50
We had to get those sandbags from one
35:53
side of the arena,
35:54
the tennis stadium to the other one.
35:56
Yep.
35:59
It's not an actual wheelbarrow,
36:00
but I actually did a three hundred and
36:02
sixty pound wheelbarrow push yesterday.
36:05
Oh.
36:07
we built it we back on a deck
36:08
is that what we're back on the deck
36:10
it was back on a deck yep four
36:12
four i don't know four or five bags
36:16
of concrete three or four bags of sand
36:18
i can't remember how much all in the
36:20
wheelbarrow went pushed it not easy i will
36:23
say it was not but then again i
36:25
was not on a fly i was not
36:26
on a flat surface so it was a
36:29
little bit hard but i do have the
36:33
I'll stop sharing that.
36:35
I do have the wheelbarrow push up.
36:41
So it's like a rogue wheelbarrow with
36:43
plates.
36:43
Oh, okay.
36:43
I don't know if you can see that.
36:46
Yeah.
36:46
And we will go ahead and... Okay.
36:53
So there it is down.
36:55
Turn around, pick it up, drag.
36:59
That looks like fun.
37:01
What I like about that is it's not
37:03
a sled.
37:04
Yep.
37:05
But it's kind of the same.
37:09
But it looks like it'll be more
37:10
consistent.
37:11
I think so.
37:12
I mean, it's just a wheel, right?
37:14
So everybody's got the same wheel,
37:17
same maintenance type stuff.
37:18
You're not on turf.
37:19
You're not on this fan's been blowing
37:22
water on this one, blah, blah, whatever.
37:25
Pick it up, roll with it.
37:26
Pick it up, roll with it.
37:27
I like it.
37:27
I like it a lot.
37:34
i like how they covered the identities to
37:38
protect to protect the testers because i
37:43
know carolyn has actually told me she
37:45
doesn't like it when people know that she
37:47
tested an event because she does not want
37:49
to be contacted or leak any information
37:53
can you imagine you're gonna get eight
37:55
hundred eighty five freaking uh messages
37:57
hey what about this hey what about this
37:59
hey what about this
38:00
And to all of them,
38:01
you got to go, no, no, no, no,
38:05
no, no, no, no, no, no.
38:09
I guess the only thing you can do,
38:10
cause they're going to,
38:10
they're going to annoy the ever living
38:12
crap out of you until you either say
38:13
something or you block everybody.
38:17
Uh, hope no flat tires.
38:18
Yeah.
38:19
We hope there's no flat tires and you
38:21
have to balance it.
38:22
So that's an added degree of difficulty to
38:24
that move.
38:25
I like it a lot.
38:31
makes me like it at first i thought
38:33
it was gimmicky you shouldn't even tell
38:37
people when work when the workout is
38:40
released what your score is or how it
38:42
felt i usually tell people i did half
38:46
of it even if i did the whole
38:48
thing like i only did like three rounds
38:51
i only did you know whatever it's all
38:54
right whatever like i don't
38:57
Very few people that I know that I
38:59
compete with that I would actually give a
39:01
score to because I know that they don't
39:02
give a shit.
39:03
They're going to do whatever they're going
39:04
to do anyway.
39:06
Perfect square is the final event.
39:09
Four time, forty nine toes to bar.
39:12
Nice even number.
39:14
And then seven overhead squats at two
39:16
fifty five one seventy five.
39:20
Going to take your core away.
39:22
Four minutes cap.
39:25
We're going to take your core away and
39:26
get you to breathing hard.
39:27
And then seven overhead quads.
39:30
You said two sixty five.
39:31
I can't hardly see it.
39:33
It is two fifty five.
39:34
Two fifty five.
39:38
Thank you.
39:41
That's going to be fun to watch.
39:45
Jason Borden says heaviest in comp
39:47
history.
39:51
Lots of failed snatches coming off the
39:53
toaster bar.
39:55
it could have a like a gwen type
39:57
effect yeah especially when you're
40:00
battling for those top three you gotta
40:06
snatch it stabilize it and then hey let's
40:11
go ahead and squat it do you know
40:13
what i love about it it's not a
40:16
lunge to the end big fan of that
40:24
Big fan of that.
40:29
Yep.
40:29
It's going to be a nasty finish in
40:32
the final heat.
40:34
Because it's kind of a sprint.
40:37
Yeah.
40:37
Kind of.
40:38
And, dude, that's a heavy.
40:42
And you're right.
40:42
The core is going to be shot hard.
40:45
I mean,
40:46
plus everything that's already going on
40:47
through the weekend, right?
40:49
Like,
40:49
let's not forget to take that into effect
40:51
as well.
40:51
And then, okay,
40:53
you got four minutes to do essentially
40:56
fifty total bar.
40:58
Forty nine.
41:00
And then the heaviest seven of the
41:03
heaviest overhead squads ever for random
41:04
in competition for enjoy yourself.
41:09
Mark Phillips,
41:10
that's a clean and press to the back.
41:13
for some it will be some people are
41:15
going to snatch it i would be shocked
41:18
if nobody snatched it i really would be
41:23
kenneth lap yo good people listen to my
41:25
man take a second like and subscribe
41:28
support the show for free thank you so
41:30
much so yeah those are the events at
41:34
syndicate
41:36
I think they're good.
41:37
We'll probably dive into it way more on
41:40
Sunday night.
41:43
Mark.
41:43
Sorry, that was an implicit for me.
41:46
I'm betting there's more people than just
41:47
you, Mark, doing it at the event.
41:52
There's going to be some,
41:53
but there's going to be some.
41:54
You're going to see some people snatch it
41:56
and just get to work.
42:01
do you think anybody snatch balances it?
42:04
You know,
42:09
if they have that much forethought,
42:11
I mean, you know, you know who would,
42:13
and he's retired now, but for Kowski,
42:16
that's something,
42:16
that's something for Kowski would do.
42:18
He would figure out that that's probably
42:19
the most efficient way to get it,
42:21
to get it into that overhead position.
42:23
And he would do something like that.
42:25
That's something I would expect to see
42:26
from for Kowski.
42:30
Um,
42:30
train all of going to be interesting to
42:31
look at the field again against those
42:33
workouts and come up with predictions.
42:35
We will for sure do that the week
42:37
before the event.
42:39
Oh no, Carolyn.
42:40
I don't think many people will,
42:42
but people are definitely,
42:43
there's going to be some dudes out there
42:44
that just get off the,
42:45
get off the rig,
42:46
take a couple of breaths and just snatch
42:48
it.
42:50
Yeah.
42:50
That's, that's a beefy snatch after the,
42:53
the weekend and the toes to bar.
42:57
A lot of stuff going on.
43:03
Too costly if you miss...
43:05
So it's also costly if you clean and
43:07
jerk it and then get it into your
43:09
back and then get it into your back
43:11
rack, right?
43:11
Clean and jerk it to get into your
43:12
back rack.
43:13
Two-fifty-five, dude,
43:14
is still a pretty hefty clean and jerk,
43:16
especially after all of that stuff.
43:18
Your core's still going to be fried,
43:19
and then you're going to have to get
43:20
it up overhead,
43:21
whether you snatch balance it basically
43:26
from the back or if you just do
43:29
a push jerk, essentially, whatever.
43:32
Either way...
43:34
It's not going to be great.
43:36
I'm thinking my initial thought was snatch
43:38
because you don't have to do any extra
43:40
moving parts.
43:41
You don't have to get it up to
43:42
clean it.
43:44
Get it into the back rack.
43:45
Get your arms out.
43:46
It's four minutes.
43:49
Carolyn says you can do it without going
43:50
to your back wide clean and jerk.
43:53
You can do it without going to your
43:54
back wide clean and jerk, Carolyn.
44:01
Fun fact,
44:02
I was invited to syndicate and I wonder
44:04
how many people can't squat this.
44:07
I could not snatch it if I wanted
44:08
to.
44:10
Yeah.
44:16
So I want to end on a fun
44:18
note because I don't want to bitch just
44:20
because my ice is too cold.
44:24
So I wanted to share a couple of
44:27
things I saw on the gram and
44:31
First thing is,
44:31
this is why Colton Mertens is a rock
44:34
star.
44:35
Love this dude.
44:37
Ah, that's not what I wanted.
44:38
She's also a rock star.
44:43
I was trying to pause it so I
44:44
could get the audio on.
44:46
Yeah, here we go.
44:48
Today is my first day without drugs,
44:50
alcohol, steroids, Coca-Cola, gummy bears,
44:53
peptide, tax fraud, eating drywall,
44:55
boner pills, smoking, simping,
44:57
making fun of Jason, gambling,
44:58
talking to my demons, public indecency,
45:00
racist jokes,
45:01
illegally live streaming events,
45:03
energy drinks.
45:07
Really, really funny.
45:09
He is a rock star,
45:11
but I think he lied.
45:12
I like the fact that he said he
45:14
threw making fun of Jason.
45:16
I think he just made fun of Jason.
45:18
Yes.
45:19
He absolutely did.
45:22
Oh my word.
45:23
That's good.
45:23
I like that a lot.
45:26
Yeah.
45:26
Yeah.
45:27
So while I love the content,
45:29
I think he lied because he did make
45:31
fun of Jason.
45:31
A hundred percent.
45:33
Yeah.
45:35
Oh, he, yeah.
45:35
I did snipe core in there at the
45:36
end too.
45:37
Yeah.
45:39

45:41

Speaking of Rogue,
48:19
see the work they've done on their new
48:21
building?
48:22
Huge.
48:23
Huge.
48:24
I know they're trying to cut back.
48:25
They have like five buildings in Columbus,
48:29
and they're trying to get back down to
48:30
one.
48:32
And not because they're downsizing,
48:34
but because they're going to expand the
48:36
one.
48:37
Right, no,
48:37
we just need to get in one big-ass
48:38
building instead of five smaller ones.
48:42
They're already a city block.
48:47
Yeah.
48:48
Not enough.
48:51
Amanda says, I cannot pass that test.
48:57
Larry Young, I'll post it later.
48:59
There you go.
49:02
They're putting up new buildings next to
49:05
the big one they have.
49:11
Mark Phillips, I have to try it,
49:13
unfortunately.
49:18
Why, unfortunately.
49:21
If you come to my class Saturday morning,
49:23
you might get to try it.
49:25
Fortunately,
49:25
I don't know a better way to put
49:27
that.
49:27
I'm very,
49:28
very liable to make that board on my
49:30
warmup Saturday morning.
49:33
If you were Victor Wimbeniana,
49:38
you would be in the whole breast with
49:42
that wingspan.
49:44
Above your head.
49:46
Didn't he grow like six inches since he
49:48
got in the NBA or something like that?
49:49
Something ridiculous?
49:51
They said this morning I get up,
49:52
his wings, him,
49:54
his height with his hands above his head
49:56
is nine foot seven.
49:58
So he just like.
50:01
Yeah,
50:02
he can essentially defend the rim with
50:04
just a little hop.
50:05
Just a little.
50:11
I did it yesterday.
50:11
It was fun.
50:14

50:58
My legs still hurt from Monday,
51:00

51:01
squatting I did.
