- 2:32Not a bad idea. All right, before we get into
- 2:35viewer comments, we have a little bit of housekeeping to
- 2:38do. Housekeeping.

- 2:49She writes articles and gets in, gets everybody riled up and
- 2:52she's also having a baby and man, May 10th soon are.
- 2:57You excited? Or I think, I think it's going
- 3:00to happen before the 10th, but I'm excited it it feels like
- 3:05you're prepping for a hurricane, but it's like a good hurricane.
- 3:08But I've also never been through a hurricane.
- 3:10So it's like, it's like hot, like a hurricane.
- 3:12Yeah, exactly. I'm excited.
- 3:15It's not like. Hot like a hurricane.
- 3:18There we go. Yeah, Abby crying makes me extra
- 3:22excited. Yeah, I don't know what to tell
- 3:27you about that The All right, If you could pick a date, what date
- 3:32would you pick? Because me and Les, may the
- 3:34fourth be with you, that's what. You want?
- 3:35No, my dad was born on the 4th. OK, not a Star Wars person.
- 3:40He he was born pre Star Wars so gotcha.
- 3:43Gotcha. Me and me and Leslie, she was
- 3:44supposed to be due the 21st and I was like I think January 15th,
- 3:492025 like that would be such a great date 11525 like and then
- 3:55it happened. October 7th.
- 4:02Yes. What if I just said like, hold
- 4:05on, there's a male guy here? Hi, guys.
- 4:07I'm struggling. There's a lot.
- 4:09It's a lot. OK, I'm we're going to make it,
- 4:12but just give me a minute. This is what you get to get used
- 4:16to, Tyler. So just like we did for JY,
- 4:20there's a few items left. We're a little bit late on this,
- 4:22but let's let's clear it out. Every donation that you get,
- 4:27every super chat will be going to Tyler and Jeanette's baby
- 4:32registry. So we will we'll, we'll buy
- 4:34something at the end of the show.
- 4:36So start throwing out your donations for Tyler.
- 4:39If not, then sorry Tyler, but. I didn't know you were going to
- 4:43do this, but Jeanette literally just asked me like, hey, do we
- 4:47need to put anything else on the baby registry?
- 4:49And I was like PlayStation all. Things you need donate for baby
- 4:52baby bron baby bron baby bron OK.
- 4:57Yeah, throw up. Throw those out there.
- 4:59Oh look, Mitch Hooper, I need to cut my gift by half 'cause I
- 5:05believe I'll only have half a year or so.
- 5:08Why do I have to pay for your your mess?
- 5:13It happens. All right, let's go to viewer
- 5:17comments and get into the show. All right, first up, Dave, Dave
- 5:22Ton writes, I knew the exact day my L2 expired.
- 5:28HQ sent me several warning emails I don't buy.
- 5:32I didn't know it at all. So.
- 5:36Yeah, I'm going to be honest, we were, I think, I don't know if
- 5:42John felt this way. He got in their ass a little bit
- 5:44during their during that. And you played it off pretty
- 5:48good. But you were you were pushing.
- 5:51So I got nobody's behind. Sir, this is I'm not Mitchell
- 5:55Hooper over here. Goodness.
- 5:56All coaches must not talk to you.
- 5:59That that my football. Coaches used to say I'm going to
- 6:01get in that ass, you don't get down.
- 6:05But I don't I I just asked an honest question and it it felt
- 6:08like it stumped him. Well, because they couldn't
- 6:11answer it honestly. That's the hard part, yeah.
- 6:15It was, it was bullshit. I like those people.
- 6:18I appreciate what appreciate what they're trying to do.
- 6:20I think they were also trying to play some political games.
- 6:23Thank you to everybody who's donating right now.
- 6:27But yeah, they couldn't, they couldn't tell the truth about
- 6:30that, I don't think. And so yeah, I think it's I
- 6:34think it's bullshit. Like if anything the the
- 6:37punishment should have been more severe it.
- 6:39Just seemed like it. No, I think they should thank
- 6:43God that CrossFit worked with them.
- 6:45Yes, because I think I feels like it's a very simple thing
- 6:53that they just that did not happen.
- 6:55So, I mean, I think they they're very lucky that CrossFit decided
- 6:59to work with them. All right, we got, we got some
- 7:02super chats we need to address here.
- 7:04Rolling in. Thank you everybody.
- 7:06Grant keeping it real. He is the kale layman detective.
- 7:11No one can beat me at 4 minutes of burpee box jump overs.

- 8:03Damn, that mount I I will give it to you, John.
- 8:06People are people are itching for the mountain.
- 8:08I'm. Going to tell you right now it's
- 8:09pretty sexist right now all girls need to step it up because
- 8:13about 3/4 of y'all dropped off the mountain at a mad race, OK?
- 8:17Like Tia was holding the Fort down and then she just died, you
- 8:22know, so she can't she can't be on it anymore.
- 8:25I'm struggling. It's going to be, I hope
- 8:28somebody stands out during an affiliate semifinals because
- 8:32it's it looks we might as well just call it guys, games,
- 8:36mountain right now. We need we need some women.
- 8:38We need some women to step up. OK.

- 9:04unacceptable. Yeah, Jose, another 20 for the
- 9:10PS5, Tyler, and also the baby. Thank you.
- 9:14I think actually when I had my first, we were going through
- 9:18Target and I put a dozen golf balls on there and somebody got
- 9:22it for us. It's pretty cool.
- 9:26Ken Walters, 20 bucks. It's Judy, right?
- 9:29Judy Reed, not Julie. Judy, you missed.
- 9:32Yeah, I rocked with Julie. And I'm like, I don't think

- 9:56Buy them diapers. There you go, another 10.
- 10:01Oh man. Dixie Dave 95.
- 10:04Trash Panda Strong another 999. This is the baby panda for sure
- 10:09the trashiest. Keeping it real can I get 30
- 10:13pack? I messed up my budget.
- 10:15That's not. Helpful.
- 10:17And Trish 3 milligrams of Zen pouches for the baby.
- 10:23Thanks. That's not even enough for a 3
- 10:26milligrams. Dan, Dan Arnson, invite me on
- 10:32the show sometime. Just kidding.
- 10:34Don't. Congrats, Tyler.
- 10:35Thank you, Dan. Appreciate it.
- 10:40Donate all the money you made on Kale Grant.
- 10:42You know all that. He spent it all on that song, I
- 10:48think. Hey, Tyler can get within 10
- 10:50seconds of his score, or that means you and Hillary are going
- 10:53to give him whatever money you're going to give Kale.
- 10:55I know. I think I thought about that
- 10:57when I made my story tonight. I was like as someone who may as
- 11:01well qualified as much as Kale. Did yeah, Grant spent all his
- 11:06money on paying for Jet, ChatGPT and and the song.
- 11:09So he's coming out of pocket for this?
- 11:12Say it to me, Sir Tyler is classy.
- 11:15He likes them rogues. No, the other Watkins likes the
- 11:18rogues. The rogues are gross as shit and
- 11:20we got in a big big argument. About the The fit Jason Watkins.
- 11:25No, no, no, no. The the the Mayhem Watkins.
- 11:28Oh, OK, OK. Michael.
- 11:30Michael. There's a lot of Watkins going
- 11:32on, yeah. Tax write off.
- 11:37It's all right up. That's why I did Outback in
- 11:39Cookeville. Yeah.
- 11:42This is actually reimbursement spin.
- 11:44Yeah, cat D727. I tried to watch Wadlin Fest and
- 11:50listening to Brian Friend is like watching paint dry.
- 11:54He was so boring and has zero personality.
- 11:57If the Wadlin Fest people are reading this or watching, please
- 12:02hire the Barbell Spin guys to do it or Bill Chase and Sean
- 12:06Woodland. Listening to Brian Friend was
- 12:09too painful. I will say I don't know if we
- 12:13would do it if they asked us though.
- 12:15Like, like, here's the thing. I I mean, we probably would, but
- 12:19nobody knows obscure names better than Brian Friend.
- 12:22OK. And I think what needs to go
- 12:24without saying. I did not know the people
- 12:26competing. I knew three people that
- 12:28mattered. And I know three people that are
- 12:30close to mattering but still don't.
- 12:32And that's how I would say it. The 57 other people that I mean
- 12:38I could compete with, Brian knows those names and I don't
- 12:43and I think nobody could do as good of a job knowing those
- 12:45people as he did in that. Now, if it's boring or not, I
- 12:51don't disagree with you. It would be more entertaining.
- 12:54But I mean, we might get cancelled again 'cause I don't
- 12:57know anybody's names and I'm just gonna go off appearances
- 13:00the. Entire time.
- 13:01Let me get to that cause Eric Mackie has a thought about that.
- 13:05Be friendly Wadlin Fest live stream grade B minus.
- 13:12I don't. I don't mind that go.
- 13:13Ahead, Eric says I really appreciate it.
- 13:16Was there good enough view of four to five athletes?
- 13:21But spewing names of low level semifinalists add no value.
- 13:29I think, I think some people see the value in it and some people
- 13:32don't see the value in it. I would say I don't.
- 13:35And that's why I don't learn those people's names.
- 13:37I want to know who the fittest people are in the world.
- 13:39I want to be the I want to know more about what's going to
- 13:45happen with the people that are going to matter at the end of
- 13:48the year of the Super Bowl of fitness.
- 13:50And I want to be the best one at that to inform the public like
- 13:55this is what I think is going to happen.
- 13:57And hoping you all, I hope it happens.
- 13:59I don't care about the people at Wadlin Fest.
- 14:02Sorry Wadlin Fest, people get better.
- 14:06You guys could have been competing.
- 14:09Right me and Tyler, if me and Tyler are good enough to make
- 14:12your competition, your competition's not very good.
- 14:14OK now with all that being said if y'all just get fitter I would
- 14:21care but until until that happens I don't well.
- 14:26They should have. They should have left the field
- 14:28at 25 or whatever it was going to be.
- 14:30They should have. They should have.
- 14:31I still only know five names, right?
- 14:34You know I. Wanted I wanted to say about
- 14:39I'll give him a four overall. Broadly, it was not.
- 14:43In 10 out of 10. Out of 10, the four is all
- 14:51effort points. I really don't want to take that
- 14:53away from him. I know we, I said last week.
- 14:55He's. Doing the best he can, Tyler.
- 14:57I mean, like it was a lot like he was he was getting the names
- 15:00out. He was comment he was doing the
- 15:03like the play by play. He was doing the camera work.
- 15:05He did have a Switcher, a guy who was doing the the live feed
- 15:08switching, but like he was still doing a lot of shit.
- 15:12And so hats off to him. It was not an entertaining feed
- 15:15to watch. It was, I tried to watch it
- 15:19really hard and it was like, you ever get into a show and you're
- 15:22like, I'm going to like this show and then you realize 30
- 15:24minutes later you've been looking at your phone.
- 15:27That's what happened to me. No, and I and I could not agree
- 15:30more that it I, I could not get into it.
- 15:34I literally it would have been helpful to have like heat time
- 15:39stamps or somehow in there because you just had to Fast
- 15:42forward and try to find when Yonah Kowski was going or when
- 15:46Lucy Campbell was going. And then even then you couldn't
- 15:48really find them in the mix because they want to get
- 15:50everybody like they they want to get everybody.
- 15:54And that's I don't care about. Everybody we care about 5 right?
- 15:58We're about the middle of five lanes.
- 16:00And and you know, and I would say I think there is a a fan
- 16:07dumb man, help me with the right word, an audience, an audience.
- 16:11I do think there's an audience for people who want to see
- 16:14everybody they want to see, You know, Matthias Kosiklowski get
- 16:2115th place at an event, right? Mostly family members, but the
- 16:26Kataklowski is but but they do, they do want to see everybody.
- 16:33That's you know, I just want to see who's in the running to get
- 16:37to the Games. And then at the Games I want to
- 16:40see everybody because it's the 40 freaking fittest people in
- 16:43the world. It's not me and Tyler can be
- 16:46next to these guys that that's the fitness level we're
- 16:49watching. If Tyler was in a fitness
- 16:51competition, I would not watch it because it's not entertaining
- 16:56because I could do it like like, you know what I mean?
- 16:59I, it's like, it's like watching.
- 17:01It's like, OK, you ever watch high school football, Tyler?
- 17:03Like you go to your, your old. I've only seen one high school
- 17:07football game in my old school, but it's like, man, it's just
- 17:12really not fun to watch. Like I.
- 17:13Disagree. I love high school sports.
- 17:16If if there wasn't, if there wasn't like, you know, some
- 17:19phenom that's going to go to Alabama, right?
- 17:21But like, if it's just a regular high school team against regular
- 17:24high school team, it's really hard to watch.
- 17:26And that's how I feel about this.
- 17:28You know what I mean? The NFL is not hard to watch.
- 17:32We went to the the the gym from the Hoosier movie.
- 17:35It's up here in, in Central, IN Knightstown.
- 17:39And we got in, there was some games going on and I was like,
- 17:43fuck yeah, like we'll watch the games.
- 17:44Bought tickets for whatever. And it was 2 Christian schools
- 17:47and they were terrible. They were God awful.
- 17:50And it was amazing to watch 'cause we just sat there and was
- 17:53like, what's happening the whole time?
- 17:56I like watching high school sports.
- 17:58But I will, I will agree with you, John, to be utilitarian
- 18:01about Brian. There are people who like
- 18:03scouting reports. I have a cousin who this is the
- 18:07wildest shit ever. He loves baseball cards loves
- 18:10and he loves baseball. So but if you want to get into
- 18:14the baseball card game now it's almost impossible.
- 18:16They make like one off cards. You got to pay like 8 grand
- 18:19starting for them. And So what he started doing is
- 18:22he watches the guys who are coming up through the the
- 18:25smaller leagues. He knows that they're going to
- 18:27go to the big leagues. And what he tries to do is you
- 18:30can actually like be around and hang around these guys if you
- 18:33know like anything about the teams.
- 18:36And so he'll go and hang out with some of these ball players,
- 18:39figure out where they're at. And then he gets them to sign
- 18:42like their rookie card, right? There are people who are into
- 18:45that kind of thing, but it lives within like a very niche subset.
- 18:51So I think what Brian could do is you have your main broadcast,
- 18:56like John is saying, you focus on the, you know, the broad
- 18:59field or the the five athletes that really matter.
- 19:02And then between heats, you can hopefully pull Brian in and be
- 19:06like, hey, what's the lower level level scouting report?
- 19:09What did you see? And just give the highlights
- 19:11like so and so the way the Klakowski or whatever did this
- 19:16Katakowski. Sorry, no, no disrespect,
- 19:19Matthias. Come on now.
- 19:21Matthias, you hit on those and it's like a, you know, they're
- 19:24actually shining a lot heavier than they were.
- 19:26Give them the little shine, but it should live within like a 3
- 19:29minute segment. A highlight.
- 19:30Yeah, highlight. 100% I, I think it's a, a phenomenal way to put
- 19:35it. If you want to give those guys
- 19:37their like, like this guy had a weird strategy that nobody else
- 19:41had. And, and then, you know, we
- 19:42finished in whatever, whatever place.
- 19:45I do want to pull up this, but we're supposed to watch grid for
- 19:48John. LOL.
- 19:48Listen, listen, listen, Trish here, hold on.
- 19:53Oh, I got rid of it. Hold on.
- 19:54I gotta go find it again. Where?
- 19:56Where do we go? We know what it says, John.
- 19:59You don't gotta find. It I just want to leave it up
- 20:02there, OK. I OK anyway, Anyway, anyway,
- 20:05yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't care if you watch Grit,
- 20:09this is just something I'm doing.
- 20:11Now. I will say this is where the
- 20:13freaks are freaks for two minutes at a time, you know what
- 20:16I mean? It's very fast-paced.
- 20:18It's the opposite of what Heat one of eight is at Wildland Fest
- 20:24opposite. Like you literally go as fast as
- 20:26you can and kill yourself for two minutes over and over and
- 20:29over and over again like that. That's what that is.
- 20:33I don't care if you watch it though, man.
- 20:35If you want to come support or Trish, I guess it's man or girl.
- 20:38I didn't want to do your avatar person person.
- 20:41No, we're it's 2025, pal. We're done with day.
- 20:43Oh. We're done now.
- 20:44Got. It you know, but whoever you
- 20:46are, if you want to support, come support, that's awesome.
- 20:52But if you don't. You know that's OK too.
- 20:54It's not everybody's cup of tea. I'm not going to make anybody do
- 20:57it, but I am going to walk out to Big Papa and I'm going to and
- 21:00I'm going to. I'm going to have some attitude
- 21:02whenever I do it, OK? That's the thing about grid.
- 21:05It's. All highlights the whole thing.
- 21:07It's a highlight. Yeah.
- 21:08It's it's all it is. Yeah, All right.
- 21:13Live like a dog today. Congrats, Tyler.
- 21:16Thank you, Miss Julie. I mean Judy Reed.
- 21:20Congrats to Watkins. Judy, Judy, hold on.
- 21:23Can she keep a tab? Is she able to do this?
- 21:25Yeah, Judy, you need to get to. Work.
- 21:26I've been writing it down, but write it down.
- 21:29I want to say that Judy, even though I screwed up your name,
- 21:32she gets my most favorite fan award forever.
- 21:36She's the best fan. We got to talk to her a lot.
- 21:39Did you get to talk to her very much at at Mayhem?
- 21:42I think I met her and her daughter for 5 minutes or
- 21:44something like that. Cool to hang out.
- 21:46With some around, Yeah, very nice.
- 21:47Very cool to hang out with. Let's see, Natalie.

- 22:05Another another 5 from Dane Arnold Arninson.
- 22:08Let's see, that's crazy. Private schools are usually good
- 22:12because they don't have the same rules in regards to recruiting.
- 22:15Also, don't you live in Texas? No, I don't live in.
- 22:18Texas. Oh, he's talking about.
- 22:19He's talking about me. No, he's talking about me.
- 22:22High school football wasn't fun for me to watch.
- 22:26I did not go to high school in Texas.
- 22:27I went to high school in Illinois.
- 22:31Mitchell Limbo, 199. Thank you.
- 22:35Thank you. I think I caught up.
- 22:37Let's see, I have more comments. Let's see at Stephanie centric
- 22:44and and they say guys don't have drama referring to her last
- 22:48episode. What'd you call it?
- 22:51Drama? What?
- 22:52Drama did we have? Last.
- 22:53Episode Brian. Oh no, that was more of an
- 22:56emotional release. I think it's the most manly.
- 23:00Thing you can do. I'll tell.
- 23:01I'll call it drama. At Ryze Wood actually it's
- 23:07called she's. She pronounces it Reese Wood
- 23:09spin. I agree with you about the
- 23:11shoes. So don't be wearing those puffy
- 23:14shoes to run 600 meters. Today's shoes are over
- 23:17engineered. I love the you.
- 23:19People in these shoes. I love the innovates of the past
- 23:25but I can't wear their new versions.
- 23:26I have moved to 0 shoes that starts with AX to still have the
- 23:32minimalist feel. I run in them and lift.
- 23:34I would never run in lifters lol.
- 23:37Would you though? Do handstand locks in lifters?
- 23:42That is the question. Strike movement?
- 23:44Did you do that in strike movement shoes?
- 23:47Did he do that? Tyler, you wore lifters for 275
- 23:51LB squats. Yes.
- 23:52John, this is not an easy. Way if you beat me if I beat you
- 23:56with this. Dude, I was really slow.
- 23:59I was really. Slow.
- 24:03Like I've got like 7 minutes in, I'm like, oh, that's exactly.
- 24:07I don't think I'm winning. I don't think I'm winning.
- 24:09That's that's. Just what I'm saying.
- 24:13As promised or discussed or however they want to say it,
- 24:17John and Tyler took on workout number one of the 2025 CrossFit
- 24:23Individual in affiliate semifinals.
- 24:25When did you guys do it? Yesterday 2.
- 24:28I did mine this morning. No.
- 24:33He did. He did his on Tuesday.
- 24:37Tyler's cutting out should have restarted his computer.
- 24:41Tyler, Tyler, go in and go back. Go out and go back in.
- 24:47It's really bad, man. We not have nobody.
- 24:49Nobody's got anything of you right now.
- 24:50Go go out and come back in there.
- 24:57We go. All right, try now.
- 24:58Try now, Tyler. It's it's my Internet.
- 25:01It's. Going to All right, You're good,
- 25:02you're good. Now you're good.
- 25:02We got you. Stay with us.
- 25:05All right? Work out one, if you don't
- 25:07remember, it is an AMRAP in 15 minutes of three muscle UPS, 3
- 25:14back squats, a 30 foot handstand walk which was broken up in the
- 25:18215 foot out and back. And then you're going to add 3
- 25:22reps to the muscle ups and the squats each round.
- 25:27So we're going to play this, we're going to talk through it.
- 25:30I'll publish this after the make it public if you guys want to go
- 25:34watch it later in full high definition.
- 25:38I think Tyler needs to get a penalty just by the looks of
- 25:42where we are. Did you start with the
- 25:44backspots? Is it not the back squats?
- 25:48I doubt hold on time out spend. That was a huge deal on where I
- 25:52ended because I could have done 15 back squats at you understand
- 25:56what I'm saying? Spend because it's like 90
- 25:58seconds at the end, you know what I mean?
- 26:00It would have helped me the other way made.
- 26:02An insane difference at the end for me.
- 26:05Yeah, but Tyler would have done better.
- 26:07I would. Have done better the other way,
- 26:08he. Would have done better.
- 26:09I don't think it's still the same amount of reps though,
- 26:12except I know. That I would have ended on the I
- 26:15would have ended on. If.
- 26:17You don't do 15 ring muscle UPS in a row then then it doesn't
- 26:22matter because I wouldn't you wouldn't have done 15 in a row.
- 26:25No way. I I'm doing 15 in a row on the
- 26:28back. Squats.
- 26:29Oh well. Oh well, here we go.
- 26:34We'll watch it. I do want to address this while
- 26:36we're watching it already coming out to a hot lead.
- 26:41Has anyone interested AY quitting the workout and killed
- 26:43Taylor last week? Some of the weakest stuff I've
- 26:45ever seen. I never want to hear him talk
- 26:47about a a soft athlete again. Listen man, I was going to go at
- 26:52Taylor's pace as long as I could until I couldn't anymore.
- 26:56If I did that workout to like what my abilities I would have
- 26:59started way way slower. You said what you're going to
- 27:03do, you're going to. Go burn.
- 27:04I said that from the beginning. And then I was like, when it's
- 27:07over, it's over. But I mean, it's if you wanted
- 27:10me to do it to completion, I'll redo the workout.
- 27:12Do it to completion. Always tax Moose, thanks for
- 27:16joining 4999. Baby, baby, baby.
- 27:19Thanks, Tax Moose, Thank. You.
- 27:22We are now. No, you're ahead.
- 27:24No, we're at the same place. No, you're, you're.
- 27:27Ahead of me. You're ahead.
- 27:28Tyler, you were. You were crushing him.
- 27:31Killing it. What happened there?
- 27:34Oh no, you got to go back to the 15 foot marker man.
- 27:37These are 15 foot sections. This is double penalty.
- 27:41I had. 2 lines and I forgot which one I was.
- 27:43Doesn't matter, you have to start back.
- 27:45I don't. Do it.
- 27:46Ever again. This is 2 times.
- 27:51Cheap, John. We both know that I would have
- 27:53done that unbroken. Minute.
- 27:55It was not an issue. I know nothing.
- 27:59So Tyler finished and one O round one and one O 4 JY and
- 28:041:15. See this is after this round.
- 28:09Is where it all falls apart. Yeah, round three got no round 4
- 28:15for Tyler was disgusted. We're tied up.
- 28:19We're tied up and then I'm going to walk all the way to the wall
- 28:22from here. I'm not joking, dude.
- 28:30I was like, I'm going to keep this in threes.
- 28:32I'm walking this whole workout. I'm going.
- 28:34I'm never going fast. Ever.
- 28:36I'm so glad I was talking to the the guy who owns my gym.
- 28:43Yes, probably. You're having to watch this
- 28:44maybe? My gym owner was like, and he
- 28:50was like, yeah, you're probably going to want to break that up.
- 28:51Like 333 is just off the bat just to keep your heart rate
- 28:54down. And I was like, I'm glad you
- 28:56said that because I would. Have not done that.
- 29:00All right, Tyler is ahead. Do you break this up or you go 6
- 29:05unbroken here? I think I go 6 unbroken.
- 29:08I wanted to be a hero, you know? 2 minutes in, going unbroken.
- 29:13Yeah, super. Good move, let.
- 29:15Me tell you, John, overall, how did you feel about this workout?
- 29:23It's just slow. I just feel like I was in
- 29:25mayonnaise the whole time like and I think I think you have
- 29:29this is a very hard workout to do any kind of fast without
- 29:35having an elite engine. Like obviously if they have all
- 29:38the stuff like you can do the squats, you can do the ring
- 29:40muscle UPS, you can do the handstand walking, but unless
- 29:43you have just a really good engine, it's very hard to not
- 29:48just blow up because they're all, it's all hard movements.
- 29:52Do do you think Dallon's watching this, getting some
- 29:54pointers before he try a lot tomorrow?
- 29:58I will give you this pointer, Dallon.
- 30:00At least for me, I could not hardly sit yesterday, or stand
- 30:07up, or bend over or anything that required any sort of leg
- 30:11movement at all. I somehow think you'll be fine,
- 30:13Dallon. No, he's he's.
- 30:15Fucked dude. Dell's going to do, probably,
- 30:19but let's see. They're going to get into the 20
- 30:22fours, I think, yeah. They're going to do 50 more
- 30:24squats than you. Yeah, 100%.
- 30:29Especially during this round, you watch this and it gets so
- 30:32slow. Tyler Tyler finished the round
- 30:35of 6 and 315. John's finishing up here at 403.
- 30:39You're. 50 seconds ahead, man, and I think we're going to have
- 30:43our first sit down here in a minute, yeah.
- 30:45There it is, there it is. Did you put that bench there on
- 30:49purpose? No, it was just there.
- 30:52It looked good. So how much lead can I get here?
- 30:57You're just over there hanging out in the.
- 30:58Bar boy John, you are really enjoying yourself.
- 31:01Oh dude, this is this is this is how the workout went the entire
- 31:04time. Man you.
- 31:05Know I'd get so stressed if I sat down, there's no way.
- 31:11I'm trying not to die man. It's a long workout for a great
- 31:17human. It is.
- 31:20Oh, about 7 minutes in and I wanted to quit 7 minutes in, I
- 31:24was like, but I, I like doing this because I'm like, I have
- 31:28to, I have to be try to beat John.
- 31:32And so it's like the one thing that's been keeping me going
- 31:35through this, like any of these. I'm glad I could motivate you.
- 31:38I definitely didn't feel that during this.
- 31:39I'm like, man, I guess we'll just walk over here, then I'll
- 31:42do these ring muscle UPS, then I'll walk.
- 31:44Over here you look like Colton on the 24.3 against Taylor.
- 31:49Just be in pace, touching the wall.
- 31:52Yeah, no, like workouts like these, I never, I don't have a
- 31:56reason to stop. I just need to not blow up.
- 31:59Does that make sense? And I wanted to hold threes,
- 32:02though. I wanted to hold threes in the
- 32:04ring. Muscle UPS the whole time.
- 32:06Is sitting down considered stopping?
- 32:08Yeah, you know, I meant like stopping because you can't do
- 32:11something. I, I was interested in this
- 32:15workout for me and you particularly because it's like
- 32:17we're very good at very different things in this
- 32:21workout. Yours being the strength element
- 32:23and mine being the gymnastics element.
- 32:25And so 2 very different strategies I thought going into
- 32:28this. Dude, I felt so heavy.
- 32:32Did you every ring? Every ring must.
- 32:33I'm like, God, I'm so fat. I just felt like that the entire
- 32:38time. I I would love to do this again
- 32:41in August. I think I could get a whole
- 32:43round more in August really, just because I'm so much
- 32:46lighter. Like I think I could go to, I
- 32:48think I'd still go to threes, but the wok will be cut in half
- 32:51and I'll be, you know, I'll be fitter.
- 32:52You know what I mean? It won't be, and the squats will
- 32:55be the same. So we're, we're, we still have 9
- 32:57minutes left. Was there a point where you guys
- 32:59looked at the clock and was like, oh.
- 33:02No. I mean, I just was like, all
- 33:04right, well, this is just going to be, you know, it's just going
- 33:07to be what this is right now, you know what I mean?
- 33:11It was right after this that I answered.
- 33:14Did you fail that? No.
- 33:18How many more do you got there? I think 2O no, I'm good.
- 33:24OK. I was about to say I'm about to
- 33:26catch up. If you have another set, Austin.
- 33:30God, look at your squats. You don't have to be able to do
- 33:32it to know what to do. You really are focusing on that
- 33:35hip lockout aren't? You every time, dude.
- 33:38I was trying so hard because I'm sitting here thinking I'm
- 33:43already so freaking slow. Like, I'm not going to give
- 33:48people a reason to be mean to me more, you know?
- 33:52If I'm going to move a man, then.
- 33:53I'm going to then I'm going to sit down, sit on down here.
- 33:57I might as well sat down dude, it was so.
- 34:00So Tyler finished Round 3 instead of nine in 719.
- 34:05John is hanging out on the. But at at any point do I start
- 34:09catching up or? No, Yes.
- 34:11OK. Oh, OK.
- 34:12Cool, cool, cool. Yeah, I felt.
- 34:19Go ahead. Just keep an eye on Tyler and
- 34:22how how. Long it goes.
- 34:26He took, he took 30 seconds to put that belt on.
- 34:30Oh, my heart rate is in my fucking brain.
- 34:33Right now. OK, so you say that if my heart
- 34:37rate was like that, I wouldn't be able to move.
- 34:40You know what I mean? So like, I have to go slow
- 34:44enough that that doesn't happen. Does that make sense?
- 34:47It's not that I can't go right now, it's that I'm trying to
- 34:50keep my heart down. You know what I mean?
- 34:55Unfortunately, I'm a freaking gorilla and it doesn't come down
- 34:58very easy. So it gets.
- 35:01Barred down at 8:23. You're set of four.
- 35:07Yeah. This this is heavy enough where
- 35:11it like it really starts to matter for me.
- 35:13My back squats like 380. What's yours, John?
- 35:175/15. Yeah.
- 35:19I think that the squats could have went 315.
- 35:21I think the squats should have been 3:15 because they're not
- 35:24going to make a difference for any of the elite athletes.
- 35:29That's what I was thinking the whole time.
- 35:30I was like, they're just going to pop this up every single
- 35:32time, maybe shake out and then go right.
- 35:35Right, what I think is interesting is you guys are
- 35:37going from the handstand walk into your both of your
- 35:41weaknesses. Oh yeah.
- 35:44You guys, you guys did it differently.
- 35:47I don't know why it made sense to me that the IT started with
- 35:50the back squat. I was like, you wouldn't ride it
- 35:52any other way. You know what, it's funny as we
- 35:54ended on both of our weaknesses too.
- 35:58Well, maybe Tyler will be too far ahead.
- 36:00I ended on my weakness the but if I would have ended on back
- 36:06squat if I did it the way he did it, I know for a fact like I'd
- 36:09probably get all of those squats and I didn't on the muscle.
- 36:14Tyler's finished his snatches here.
- 36:17Where is John in relation to me? We're at the set where we're in
- 36:20the same movement. You're in the same, yeah, you're
- 36:22same round right now, technically the first set of
- 36:26round of 12. That's crazy.
- 36:29I feel like I was so far behind. Oh dude, it it was like, I have
- 36:32to. Dude, look, I'm look at me.
- 36:36How am I catching up? How?
- 36:38How many more? Pounds.
- 36:39Do you squat to me, dude, that means I can't.
- 36:43How much many pounds do I weigh? More than you.
- 36:45This. Is not not out outweighing the
- 36:48squat? This is Tyler's fourth set of
- 36:51squats right now for set. 12 on the.
- 36:53Set of 12 I hated. This.
- 37:00Big set of big set of two there. I know I felt so stupid.
- 37:03I was like, I'm really about. To.
- 37:09So Tyler's been going for 3 1/2 minutes.
- 37:13On the on the. Squats.
- 37:18Am I? I'm around that though, right?
- 37:21You guys have both finished your first set of 12.
- 37:23So we're we're. We're no, I'm not done yet.
- 37:27I wouldn't. I wouldn't walk that far if I
- 37:28was done. I still got the least least.
- 37:34You're gone. Yeah, yeah.
- 37:35No, I'm not done yet. Yeah.
- 37:38I'm so sorry I fucked this workout up.
- 37:43Very curious to know where you would have finished otherwise.
- 37:46It would have been much I think I would have gotten.
- 37:48Oh man, what a big set dude. I have to do a big set up front.
- 37:54If I don't, I just look at how many reps I have to do.
- 37:56When I freak out, I'm also resting adequately.
- 38:02Yeah, it doesn't matter if I do five sets of three or I do or I
- 38:06do like 654. I'll rest the same now like each
- 38:11break. The I I'm pretty good at holding
- 38:16in like a mech con sets of four to six on muscle ups, and these
- 38:23were the hardest muscle UPS I've done in a very long time.
- 38:27The putting the bar on your back made it feel like you had
- 38:32concrete in your arms. I thought you were ready to.
- 38:36Are you going to squat now, John?
- 38:38Yeah. I feel like you could have
- 38:40watched the wall and back faster.
- 38:43Yeah, but Tyler's been going for 5 minutes now on this round of
- 38:4712 and he's. Still going to be ahead though,
- 38:50right? And then I, I take a good break
- 38:53before I at the at the end here I take a pretty great break.
- 38:57Yeah, but look at look at your squats though compared to his.
- 39:01Does John do this unbroken? He's got a.
- 39:03Yeah, dude, you could do it. Could be 30 reps.
- 39:07Tyler. I'm going to go unbroken on the
- 39:09squat. Like it could be 315.
- 39:11I'll go unbroken on the squats. If it was. 365 I might sit down
- 39:17longer. I would still go unbroken on the
- 39:20squad. If I had to go back and do this
- 39:23workout again, number one, I would do it correctly #2.
- 39:27I would read the directions. I would read the directions.
- 39:31I would, I would push. I would push the handstand walks
- 39:36a little bit more. They're not that breathy.
- 39:38It's not that far. I I was just being a giant bitch
- 39:42right here when I would break. Jason, that's what we're
- 39:47freaking saying. Yet here you all are.
- 39:53You think you're digging at us, That's what we are saying.
- 39:56Brother, you proved. You proved the point.
- 40:01What were the live views? Counts.
- 40:02At Wadlin 1000, we're almost halfway there with this.
- 40:09Constant. All right, Tyler.
- 40:13If you wait 30 more seconds, then I, I kind of feel good.
- 40:16But if you don't wait 30 more seconds, I don't feel good.
- 40:18It's. Going to take him 30 seconds to
- 40:20cinch that belt. Belt to take on the ball I'm.
- 40:22Grabbing it. He's going.
- 40:25To swing back. Oh yeah, there we go.
- 40:27I love your like, like get ready to go.
- 40:30I have AI have a back squat like a.
- 40:33Mantra or whatever. There's two for Tyler.
- 40:37Racket. Dang it, you can tell I get when
- 40:39it gets heavy. I'll do this like I'll go into
- 40:41my toes. 4 nailed it. Tyler has a four Rep lead.
- 40:48There we go. We have 45 seconds left and John
- 40:50is just hanging there on the bench.
- 40:52We're both just. That sense of urgency.
- 40:59I wanted the clock to speed up really bad, right?
- 41:04Here, this one I was. Let me, let me waddle on over to
- 41:06the Oh, wait, he's at 4 right now.
- 41:08He's at 4. How many do you do, Tyler?
- 41:11I can't remember. 9/1 for John, 2 for John, 5 for Tyler. 364,
- 41:265:00 to 7:00. Come on, you bastard.
- 41:29Squat 8. 7 8 and I Rev don't count.
- 41:37Mike counts no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no.
- 41:41Look at my. Clock.
- 41:42I finished. I finished.
- 41:45I think I think it was Tyler by one, however, however.
- 41:51I do get a discount because I screwed up the work.
- 41:55Highlands video is yeah he gets DQ D on multiple fronts but.
- 42:02So hey, that handstand walk that he would have had to go back on
- 42:06that would make a difference the.
- 42:08First round when he came down. I would 100% win this.
- 42:11Oh yeah, you would have won it for that.
- 42:13Because that handstand walk you, you had to come back for.
- 42:16That, yeah, sure. I'm taking the win on this, I
- 42:18don't care what. Y'all good job John.
- 42:20I'm taking the win on this. Those eight muscle UPS at the
- 42:23end were so hard I had to sit down for a whole minute to do
- 42:25it. That was good.
- 42:30Man. I did do the workout today
- 42:32correctly, I promise. What was that you?
- 42:38Want to talk about? That, yeah, did.
- 42:39You video it, we're. Going to semi.
- 42:41Final videoed it. Oh, we have 20 minutes.
- 42:43Oh. My.
- 42:47Gosh, that video is going to be great.
- 42:49I might just do that tomorrow just so we have something.
- 42:51I guess I don't have to until next Wednesday, but that video
- 42:55is going to be phenomenal. You're going to do.
- 42:56This over 5. Weeks I have Gridley practice, I
- 42:59have Gridley practice. I have to be fresh for that.
- 43:03This is, this is good practice for you.
- 43:06Yeah. Tyler, do you want, do you want
- 43:07to talk about your YEAH workout #2?
- 43:11Do I want to? I don't want to say the score
- 43:13yet, right? Yeah, let's not spoil it, but.
- 43:14Like I did the overhead lunge GHD setup workout my overhead
- 43:21mobility. I'm very good at hand stand
- 43:22walks decently good at pressing overhead.
- 43:26When it comes to anything inside of like this, I can't this is
- 43:31it. This is where it's going and so
- 43:34it's. Good, so you can't press the
- 43:35dumbbells against each other. That was never going to happen
- 43:39to me ever. It was the first.
- 43:45I really appreciated doing that workout after doing CrossFit for
- 43:48like 13 plus years. At this point, there's not a lot
- 43:51of workouts where you feel like those first couple years where
- 43:56you're like, you can do a ring muscle up or a couple, but you
- 43:59get into a workout and you just screw it up and you're like, I
- 44:02know I can do this and you just have to sit there and work
- 44:04through it. I had to just sit there and work
- 44:06through those lunges. It was a super humbling and like
- 44:09really I really enjoyed doing that workout from a whole
- 44:12different like the the intensity was way off like.
- 44:16Like I sit there in the suck type feeling.
- 44:18Yes, it. Was like my heart rate was high,
- 44:20but not high enough to be like, oh, I want to quit this, but it
- 44:23was like just sit and figure out this movement and do what you
- 44:27can to get it done. It was it was awesome.
- 44:31It made me realize one thing, which is how?
- 44:34Fit CrossFit games people are. Well, that, but also that it's
- 44:40the not allowing the dumbbells to touch is stupid.
- 44:45It's a stupid damn rule because if you can, and I posted this on
- 44:51my story, if you can actually get those dumbbells to touch,
- 44:54you're more flexible than everybody ever.
- 45:00And we're asking the athletes. So that's something we
- 45:05prioritize in the L1 is like flexibility and, and strength
- 45:08through those ranges of motion. But we're actively asking
- 45:11athletes to be in a disadvantaged and inefficient
- 45:16position. And that makes no sense to me.
- 45:18It's anti to the methodology. This one rule is anti to the
- 45:21methodology. And I I cannot, you know.
- 45:24Bryson and people because they're too good, yes.
- 45:28Why would you do that? They they've earned the fact
- 45:32that they can reach that eased position.
- 45:34Why are you taking it away from? That I agree with you, Tyler.
- 45:38Yeah, Danielle Brandon probably can do that super easily, yeah.
- 45:42I'm thinking something like Justin Medeiros.
- 45:45Yeah, he he could too. I had a couple athletes actually
- 45:49message me off of that and be like, I would kill this if if I
- 45:52could, if we were allowed to do that.
- 45:54And I could just, I mean, if they say if I was allowed to do
- 45:57it, I would kill it, They're probably not killing it that
- 45:59much. I can understand it from the the
- 46:01pressing standpoint. Like you have to press more, it
- 46:04is more musculature that you're utilizing.
- 46:06That's fine. Disagree with?
- 46:07Explain why. Yeah, explain why, Andrew, but I
- 46:13just don't, I don't understand why we're we're actively asking
- 46:16people to be inefficient when they have more range of motion
- 46:19they can access. It's like saying, it's like if
- 46:26it just says power clean or just it just says clean.
- 46:30There are no rules to cleaning. But since everybody can't squat,
- 46:34you say you have to squat but it's just called clean.
- 46:37That's not the best word to use, but like instead of saying squat
- 46:41clean, you know you're making people squat clean even though
- 46:43it doesn't say you have to. There's there's a better
- 46:46analogy, but. It would be like saying that if
- 46:50you could power clean, you're not allowed and it's like but I
- 46:54fucking can RIP 325 off the ground.
- 46:56You mean I'm not allowed to power clean?
- 46:58But it just says clean. I mean there's there's cases
- 47:02where it's squat clean is required.
- 47:04Not yet, but it it's a squat clean.
- 47:06All right. Again, that's not the best
- 47:08scenario because you'd be like, no, it's a squat clean right,
- 47:10but or analogy, But it's you're punishing people because they're
- 47:14better than other people. And that's I'm with you on
- 47:18Tyler. I get the other side.
- 47:20You want everybody to do the same thing.
- 47:23I, I get the other side, but I I'm, I'm with you on your side.
- 47:28So when I posted Hopper's video yesterday, do you think what was
- 47:32your opinion of that? Would you consider those tapping
- 47:37touching a penalty? No penalty.
- 47:43I would consider those touching. Well, I just made AI just made a
- 47:46case like the rules dumb part of the rule.
- 47:48I don't think you should make this Gray area of a rule.
- 47:53It how. And you also leave it up.
- 47:56Yeah, you leave it up to be subjective and I don't think and
- 48:00I that should not be a case that thing at all like.
- 48:03That was my whole point of the of the post yesterday.
- 48:09Because James can reach the floor with his butt.
- 48:11Hole. In the GHD stirrups, we should
- 48:14not make it more challenging because he has the mobility to
- 48:18do it the wrong way. GHDS are a little different man.
- 48:24Why? You should put your butt on.
- 48:25It's not bad. He was on the pad, barely the
- 48:30front of it. He's not on the pad, dude.
- 48:34That's like. I I.
- 48:37We have a movement that you have to have.
- 48:39Yeah, but like you're. Caught on the backside of the
- 48:41pad, you're saying now you have can't.
- 48:43Have no, no, no, no. Even even with that one, even
- 48:45with that one. I I'm OK with James doing that.
- 48:48I don't think it's good, but I'm but like, it doesn't say that he
- 48:52can't, you know what I mean? I I hate that rule as well.
- 48:56Wherever you want to sit on the GHD, sit there.
- 48:59And I know there's a more efficient way, but like, it's
- 49:03fine. I mean, that's like saying that
- 49:06it's a snatch but you do a clean and jerk instead, no?
- 49:12You're making That's different. That's different because it's a.
- 49:15Specifically, it's a. A.
- 49:17A snatch is different than a clean and jerk.
- 49:18There are two different movements if you specify a
- 49:20snatch. AGHD has certain like you can't
- 49:25just like sit anywhere you want and like have a rower and do it.
- 49:28Sit it differently or or do things that are just unnatural.
- 49:32Doesn't make any sense to me. The GHD is unnatural to begin
- 49:36with. I, I don't know, I guess I'd
- 49:43have to think about that for a minute.
- 49:44And I, I know I'm in the minority on this I and I and I
- 49:48understand that. So I'm not saying that this is
- 49:50the right way, but I don't like just being so like having all
- 49:56these rules for the sake of everybody doing the same thing
- 50:00because somebody, some people have a a Gray line of doing
- 50:04things. Noah Olson Gray lined every
- 50:06freaking movement that he ever did.
- 50:08If you go watch the 2013 games, like 75% of the reps they did
- 50:14would be, would people would say they're no reps go back and
- 50:18watch, go back and watch the old games and, and, and PE weren't
- 50:22so hyper focused on this. And I, I'm saying you should be.
- 50:26There isn't a time for it, but I think we've become way too.
- 50:31I'm obsessed with and it's it's the Hiller effect and I I'm not
- 50:35it's I'm not saying it's bad, Andrew, don't take it that way.
- 50:38But everybody just wants to no Rep everything and everything
- 50:42has to be a perfect way when you know, you make working out not
- 50:47fun and like, and I get for the games, there should be a strict
- 50:50standard there, right? But like, everybody has to
- 50:54follow all of these little rules like just go work out.
- 50:58Just go do the. Movement.
- 50:59Yeah, like if it's a grievous. Then you say you can't.
- 51:02Have a muscle up though, like a muscle up has it has to have a
- 51:05change in direction at the bottom.
- 51:06You can't do the, you know, the back up rise you can't do.
- 51:11Which I think is stupid. OK.
- 51:15You're just saying it on top of. The wings?
- 51:16Why? Why would that be?
- 51:17Why can't you? What's wrong with?
- 51:19It. That's the rule.
- 51:21But what's wrong with it? I don't know that.
- 51:24Is I don't. Know like that that's, you know,
- 51:27like, but it is more harmful. You will hurt your shoulders
- 51:30doing it. But that's your answer is I
- 51:34don't know. And guys, look, look, look and I
- 51:36hate these comments. Meredith, you're so dumb.
- 51:39You're so dumb. I literally said, I know I'm in
- 51:42the minority on this and I'm not saying it's the way, but you go
- 51:47ahead and be a freaking prick about it.
- 51:49Go ahead and do it, Meredith. It's not the movement standards,
- 51:51it's the problem. It's the it's the, it's the
- 51:53reasoning behind the movement standards.
- 51:55So like on the ring muscle up, so to speak, I've always thought
- 52:00they should just be get on top of the rings.
- 52:02If you can do a butter, if you can do a bunch of butterfly
- 52:04muscle UPS, like freaking go for it.
- 52:07That's like that's really hard on your shoulders.
- 52:09It's a whole new thing. Nothing's stopping you from
- 52:12doing that. I think we've we've slowed the
- 52:15growth of what we can try and do as a sport.
- 52:17Now if you specifically programmed the ring muscle UPS
- 52:20like that, but we've not done that.
- 52:22We've not innovative the way that we do ring muscle ups.
- 52:26And I I want to go on, she goes. Why?
- 52:27Have speed limits? I bet you drive over the speed
- 52:31limit. Speed limits are stupid.
- 52:33Everybody goes 10 miles. Over the speed limit, girl,
- 52:37that's the worst. That's your argument.
- 52:39That's the worst argument you could have.
- 52:41So is your point though, Tyler. On the the ring muscle up is
- 52:45that don't dictate how you get there, but just get just you
- 52:50start, you start under the. Rings and you get to the top.
- 52:53If they wanted, if we. Had explored that we could do
- 52:56butterfly ring muscle UPS, that's fine, but we've never
- 52:59done that. We just said this is the way
- 53:00that we get on top of the rings. And I've always thought that
- 53:02that was so self defeating. Yes, we could program them that
- 53:06way where it's like, yes, you have to do the reversal, which
- 53:09is the way that they've done it. I just don't like the history
- 53:11behind it and that we've just been like, yeah, this is the way
- 53:13we do it. And it's like, OK, we've not
- 53:15innovative in 15 fucking years because we decided on a rule.
- 53:21Also, would you be OK? If they said that you.
- 53:23Had like you have to do butterfly muscle UPS like a.
- 53:29Different way of get so that's. Like a separate movement?
- 53:32Yes, it is a separate movement. It's a completely.
- 53:35Separate movement. I would just say do muscle UPS
- 53:38and if somebody's got butterfly muscle UPS, they have an
- 53:41advantage there. And they might.
- 53:42Win in the event there, but you risk injury really, really,
- 53:46really bad if you do that. They want to bring up the
- 53:48sandbags. I think there should have been a
- 53:50shoulder. You have to hold it.
- 53:52On your shoulder standard. And there was.
- 53:55Are you talking about Sivan's comment?
- 53:58No. I think it was Hillary that
- 53:59brought it. Up it's the.
- 54:02Worst movement in game season history at.
- 54:03Wildlands, I think that, yeah. I mean, I think he's, I think
- 54:05that's more of a judging. Issue we've seen.
- 54:07I think we've seen worse. And.
- 54:12Look and your judge is well. Within their right to no Rep the
- 54:17fire out of you and then you need it's up to you to fix your
- 54:21movement to where they're not no repping you.
- 54:24Kind of like what Fee did when she turned her body to show that
- 54:28I'm going under parallel in my squats even though you're
- 54:31telling me that I'm not. Like you know, she knows she is.
- 54:35That judge says it doesn't look like it's below parallel.
- 54:38She turned her body and made sure that he could see it.
- 54:42Like your judge is well within your right to do this in
- 54:44competition. I agree it's a judging issue,
- 54:48but they messed that up whenever they didn't say that it was a
- 54:50shoulder standard. You know what I mean?
- 54:53It was horribly programmed. That's why I would.
- 54:55Say it was the program. The judging verses and there's
- 54:58other issues with that when it comes to the judging and why
- 55:00that was so bad, but like it's different.
- 55:04Because so like with the overhead lunch example, you're
- 55:08not doing any less work, you're not going through a different
- 55:11range of motion. You're if like your.
- 55:13Advantage because you are in a. More efficient position, but
- 55:16that's a position you've either had to work for or you just have
- 55:19naturally. And like most of us have to
- 55:21freaking work for it. The the sandbag issue is totally
- 55:25different. It's like they they poorly
- 55:27programmed it. They weren't reaching the
- 55:29stimulus of actually getting below parallel, which is like, I
- 55:32won't disagree, we need to try to achieve that.
- 55:35And so it's like that that those are not equivalent like
- 55:39arguments. And don't you think there's
- 55:42gonna be some standards? Though like.
- 55:44Dumbbell bench press can't touch the dumbbells together.
- 55:48It's way easier if you hold. Them together.
- 55:51And press 0 like. This, yeah.
- 55:53No. There's no way that's easier.
- 55:56I don't think that's easier. You ever done a close grip bench
- 55:59press? It's.
- 56:00Terrible. I think you would move slower.
- 56:03I. Don't know.
- 56:06I mean, we have. We get the 90s out and you go
- 56:10ahead and try it. Spin.
- 56:11I'll do it my way. My whole point is you have
- 56:14standards. Of like, you can't touch like
- 56:17the dumbbells can't touch each other, like there's all kinds of
- 56:20these different little nuances. Tyler, you.
- 56:23Love the detailed rule. Books we used to get from rogue
- 56:26like and now you're saying just get on top of the rings however
- 56:29you want. I did.
- 56:32I did not love those that was that was a sarcastic I love
- 56:36these. Let's we'll go back and watch.
- 56:40Yeah, pull that up. Yeah, I no, that was sarcasm.
- 56:46No, I mean. We just have, we just have
- 56:49certain ways you have to do things.
- 56:51And so I I I'm OK. With that like I.
- 56:55Said, I'm OK with us doing ring muscle UPS if we want to do the
- 56:59reversal or the, you know, the, the change of direction at the
- 57:02bottom. I'm OK with that.
- 57:03But we've never explored other options because we chose this
- 57:06rule. That's what I care about.
- 57:08And the argument behind it, it's like, I don't care if it's
- 57:11programmed this way. It's fine.
- 57:14I care about the reasoning behind the why it was programmed
- 57:17this way. That's it.
- 57:19And I think it was just some arbitrary rule they picked as
- 57:21opposed to looking at the fact that it contradicts the
- 57:25methodology and I I mean I. Don't like rules that?
- 57:29Lead that, leave it for subjective penalties.
- 57:35Does that make sense? Where it's like somebody.
- 57:37Is a judge of like, I looks like they're, I mean that was like
- 57:421.8 seconds. I'm going to say that's when's
- 57:45no. And then somebody else would say
- 57:47that's fine. I I, I don't like the
- 57:48subjective. It either is or it isn't.
- 57:52You know, that's what I want. You're either below parallel or
- 57:55you're not, you know what I mean?
- 57:56They either touch. They either touch or they don't.
- 57:59When you leave things for. An opinion, that's how.
- 58:04That's how people get gypped and I don't and I don't like that at
- 58:07all. And I again, and I know, I know
- 58:12we need. Movement standards, they.
- 58:13Need to be enforced very strictly.
- 58:15I'm I'm all for that. I just think people get super
- 58:21nitpicky and you make working out not fun and that's, and
- 58:25that's, and that's not what it used to be.
- 58:29You know, like like again, go watch 2010 to 2013.
- 58:36None of those people. Would.
- 58:38None of their reps would count. 75% of the reps would not count
- 58:42today. And that's and like and like.
- 58:47I get it. I get it, we've gotten better.
- 58:48We're better at moving, I get it.
- 58:50But you make working out not fun.
- 58:52And I again, if it's egregious, then then.
- 58:56It's still a no. Rep.
- 58:58You know what I mean? Like if you're not below
- 58:59parallel, it's still a no Rep. But like when you have all these
- 59:02little rules. That I'm talking about the
- 59:05little. Rules not freaking.
- 59:08Retarded Nick who wants. To just comment and act like
- 59:11he's something. Yeah, Nick.
- 59:18Yeah, we'll see how I. Mean we'll look and see what
- 59:20the. FAQs come out tomorrow and how
- 59:24they address that question. As for just the the workouts in
- 59:28general, are you happy with this stage?
- 59:32In the season. Qualifying 11 men, 11 women are
- 59:36these the right workouts to do that Tyler I like them I think
- 59:43Hitler said it right the. 9.7 out of 10.
- 59:47It's they're really, really good workouts, John.
- 59:50Yeah, I think the program was. Beautiful.
- 59:52I think whoever thinks it's this programming, I want them to be
- 59:56the programmer from now on, like.
- 59:59Pretty sure that's pause. Then that and that's why then
- 1:00:03that I would. Rather, this programming is the
- 1:00:05best programming they've had in a very, very long time.
- 1:00:08Why do you think that is like? I don't know, Spin.
- 1:00:12But whatever they did here, that's what the game should
- 1:00:14happen, and that's what open should be.
- 1:00:16You know what I mean? Not not as hard, of course, not
- 1:00:19as hard, but this is fantastic programming.
- 1:00:24And I haven't and from different viewpoints too, like, you know,
- 1:00:28Hitler liked it, Taylor liked it.
- 1:00:31Like I like it. When all three of these these
- 1:00:34different like people who think differently about programming,
- 1:00:37Jr. liked it, then it's probably pretty freaking good.
- 1:00:40You know what I mean, of people who think differently.
- 1:00:43And they all agree it's a really, really good test of
- 1:00:46fitness. What do you think I?
- 1:00:51Liked it a lot I think. When you look at like.
- 1:00:55We kept on looking at. Like last year's quarterfinals
- 1:00:58to see like, who could possibly like, sneak in to the Games,
- 1:01:04right? And for the most part, last
- 1:01:08year's quarterfinals, the top athletes.
- 1:01:11Were there, but there are a handful.
- 1:01:12That like I think Caitlin Vanzil like she would have qualified
- 1:01:18right like and she's I know she's been on the cusp of it,
- 1:01:21but like this programming I. Think is going to.
- 1:01:25Find I mean. Top athletes at the.
- 1:01:29Games like if, if you just said the top 30 from here go to the
- 1:01:35games, that's that's the field. I think it's highly correlated
- 1:01:40with what you would see. I'd be fine with it.
- 1:01:42I I don't like that. But I'd be fine.
- 1:01:44What I'm saying is no. I'm saying is like.
- 1:01:46The the end result of overall standings of the games to the
- 1:01:50overall standings of these semifinals would be highly
- 1:01:53correlated. Like you're going to do the best
- 1:01:56of the. Best you.
- 1:01:57Don't catch running very. Much and I mean so like that
- 1:02:00would be the one thing that might throw a little bit of a
- 1:02:03wrench into things. But I I don't disagree.
- 1:02:07I think, I think if you can do that 30 minute.
- 1:02:09Workout. I'm sure you can probably run
- 1:02:11decently. Probably.
- 1:02:15You know. So what had me thinking though,
- 1:02:21like if you modified these five workouts to be an in person
- 1:02:26competition that. Would be pretty awesome too.
- 1:02:30Like take away the Amraps and say it's 36912151821 like make
- 1:02:38them four time right knowing. Knowing what like you wanted to
- 1:02:42be. A 15 minute workout or whatever,
- 1:02:44right? And it'd be faster because you
- 1:02:45might probably have it for time. You'd pace differently like that
- 1:02:49would be a pretty amazing like set of. 5 workouts for.
- 1:02:56An in. Person qualifying event.
- 1:02:57Where do you put? Workout 5 because you can't.
- 1:02:59Put that as the final that's. Probably the one that's probably
- 1:03:04the first. Probably the first.
- 1:03:05Workout. Yeah, you got to do that one
- 1:03:06first. Yeah, I mean, I would say.
- 1:03:09From in person. Competition, like you really
- 1:03:11don't have anything that's like that fast finisher but the showy
- 1:03:17yeah, but. Again, like it's.
- 1:03:20Online, it doesn't need to be. There is no no I get it.
- 1:03:22But I'm saying like these. I could easily see them
- 1:03:25modifying these workouts to be the fit and in person side of
- 1:03:29things and make it work. Honest question.
- 1:03:34Do you think and I mean. He I don't.
- 1:03:38Know if he's doing it, do you think Kale?
- 1:03:41Would beat. Me and Tyler in this first
- 1:03:43workout, this first one. And this first one.
- 1:03:46Me and Tyler, basically. Tied we'll just give each other
- 1:03:49the same score. I I'm taking the I'm taking I'm
- 1:03:52I'm taking the win the tie break I'm taking I'm taking the tie
- 1:03:56break. But we'll I'll call it a tie.
- 1:03:58Do you think Kale we he has to show a video, right?
- 1:04:01Do you think Kale beats us? Man.
- 1:04:11GAIL, this is your redemption chance.
- 1:04:13Right here. Keep in mind Tyler destroyed
- 1:04:15him. In workout one, I want to say I
- 1:04:20want to say. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:04:22Me and him both. Beat him in.
- 1:04:23The sandbag workout. I want to say yes.
- 1:04:28But he's probably better at ring muscle than we.
- 1:04:33Yeah, but look at it. Look.
- 1:04:34At. I mean, I don't know.
- 1:04:35What he was feeling in that last event, the 3030 thirty, that
- 1:04:38Mayhem won. But he wasn't going.
- 1:04:41Through those muscle UPS. That he's the bar muscle UPS
- 1:04:43that easily. So like that's where I'm saying
- 1:04:45like that doesn't. I'm not convinced that he would
- 1:04:48get through those and do those that well.
- 1:04:53Does he? Does he do?
- 1:04:55Them. No, not a chance.
- 1:04:58Is there any chance he submits? Scores without a video just puts
- 1:05:02up a fake video. Fake.
- 1:05:04No, no, no, just just a fake score.
- 1:05:07Please, just you're, you're this deep.
- 1:05:09In now just go ahead just freaking all the way.
- 1:05:12Well, I I still would love to have.
- 1:05:14Kale join the show. So would you say explain what
- 1:05:17happened? That's what.
- 1:05:18That's what. I want him to do I.
- 1:05:19I would love to yes or no. What's that?
- 1:05:22Are you saying yes or no? I'm going to say no, I think.
- 1:05:27He can. I just want to see it, John.
- 1:05:32What that? Sandbag workout.
- 1:05:34Is not your workout. No, it's a lot of squatting.
- 1:05:38Though dude, it's a lot of squatting that it's enough
- 1:05:40squatting. I bet you did not run fast for
- 1:05:43you though, it's a lot of running.
- 1:05:45But the yeah, I understand that. But I'm.
- 1:05:47Saying I'm saying if you take away people's ability to run,
- 1:05:53I'm still running my slow pace. You know what I mean?
- 1:05:55It just so it just makes me closer to them in the run.
- 1:05:58It doesn't make I don't slow down.
- 1:06:00You can't get. You're saying the way I'm
- 1:06:01running on the on the right because the.
- 1:06:04Blots aren't filling. Up my legs as much as as and I
- 1:06:08think Tyler had still beat me in the first one.
- 1:06:11I think so I was. 24. 50 Yeah, I was. 2430, I think, or something
- 1:06:21like that. I love how we're so close in
- 1:06:22these. I know.
- 1:06:23They're it's so fun. I'm sure.
- 1:06:25I'm sure they've been way different too, like.
- 1:06:28Tyler probably had to lead and then John, like I definitely
- 1:06:32Tyler's the Emily. Rolf and I'm the feast of gothy
- 1:06:34in this in this scenario for sure, for sure.
- 1:06:38But I'm just saying, you know, that's a fitness oriented
- 1:06:43workout and and we both beat him in that workout.
- 1:06:47Yeah. I did want to show.
- 1:06:50Let me see if I can. Yes, Jeremy, we're going to do
- 1:06:53them. All we're going to do them all.
- 1:06:57I fully expect Tyler to win workouts 4:00 and 5:00, but
- 1:07:00we'll be close. And then two and three he can't
- 1:07:03really do and I can and then that.
- 1:07:05So like when we're ranked, I will be higher.
- 1:07:08John's going to win on tie break.
- 1:07:10Even though Tyler can beat. Me in more than I can beat him
- 1:07:13in. Does that make sense though?
- 1:07:15And that's what happens. That's what happens.
- 1:07:21Emily Rolf posted a story. Big soccer fan, I guess. 1%
- 1:07:27chance, 99% faith. Next up, world fitness project.
- 1:07:33This is a very. Ununderstandable post.
- 1:07:40Why? 1%.
- 1:07:42Chance 99%. Fate, that's basically to me,
- 1:07:45it's like, we'll see, I guess, yeah.
- 1:07:52I. Assume this.
- 1:07:54Means that she's not doing. Affiliate Semifinals.
- 1:08:00I can't imagine you just forgot about it.
- 1:08:03No, she's. Wait, what?
- 1:08:06Say it again. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- 1:08:09I'm saying she's not going. To do the.
- 1:08:11The in affiliate semifinals, she's going to.
- 1:08:15Take the chance on going. To TFX or so world fitness
- 1:08:19project is the. Same week as in affiliate
- 1:08:21semifinals, John. She's skipping.
- 1:08:25Semifinals and going to World fitness next.
- 1:08:27Oh I got it that from this post maybe?
- 1:08:29She just didn't think about it. You think so?
- 1:08:32Just. You know nothing on her.
- 1:08:34Mind just I can't. See her not doing?
- 1:08:39Man, I don't think she. Qualifies out of.
- 1:08:42Semifinals. I don't either.
- 1:08:43What's her best chance? Then Norcal.
- 1:08:46Norcal's her best. Chance.
- 1:08:48TFX or Norcal? Well, you got.
- 1:08:50Ariel. I guess Ariel could.
- 1:08:51Make it I guess. I guess you see who makes it an
- 1:08:54in affiliate and those people are out Dom, it's already going.
- 1:08:57Dom, it's already going. Dom, it's a.
- 1:08:59Big one, that's already. Going man, you got Ariel.
- 1:09:02You got Gazan. And.
- 1:09:05Ariel and Gazan might make it online.
- 1:09:08I kind of expect them to, maybe. I'm not convinced.
- 1:09:13Gazan with the. I I think both heavy, Isabel.
- 1:09:18For Gazan and Rolf is not good online.
- 1:09:20It's light enough that she can power though Gazan.
- 1:09:22'S very very strong. She's just bad in the the bottom
- 1:09:27position she's. Not very, Very, very.
- 1:09:31Strong, but she can just. Power it.
- 1:09:34And like a power, she. Could power she could power the
- 1:09:38heavy snatch during semi finals 2 years ago and didn't do well
- 1:09:44she. Didn't do.
- 1:09:46Well, in the Snatch ladder last year at West Coast.
- 1:09:49I'm not saying she's going to do well.
- 1:09:51It might. Be her worst event, but like
- 1:09:53she's going to do good enough to to be fine in it.
- 1:09:56The women's drop. Off is so.
- 1:09:58Big man, it's top 11 in the. World Yeah, like the the.
- 1:10:09The leaderboard only has like 100.
- 1:10:11And 30 some odd women, 100A-150 women right now it's going to go
- 1:10:15up with people you know, signing up when they submit their
- 1:10:17scores. I bet you, I bet you.
- 1:10:20Alex makes it. How much you want to bet?
- 1:10:23I bet you 100 bucks. I don't want to bet that.
- 1:10:26OK. I'll bet 20 I'll take that all
- 1:10:29day long. All right, let's.
- 1:10:30Do it 20 bucks. Yeah, Seema, she's not on the
- 1:10:38leaderboard. Yet I think I mean there's Tia's
- 1:10:39not even on there, Tia new and affiliate.
- 1:10:44I don't Tia. I don't think Tia.
- 1:10:45'S doing it. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:10:47No, but like. There's.
- 1:10:49There's plenty of them that are not signed up yet.
- 1:10:51It's just like the open. They wait till they submit their
- 1:10:53score and then they they sign up.
- 1:10:58Isabel Oh, go ahead. Isabel, does anybody beat
- 1:11:03Olivia? Curstetter.
- 1:11:05No. On the men's side, no.
- 1:11:09Who wins that one? No, still not beating there.
- 1:11:12Or early. The men's going to be tough to
- 1:11:18call. I think Nick Matthew.
- 1:11:21Could. You don't think anybody else
- 1:11:23comes out from nowhere and. Beats he just did a four O 2.
- 1:11:27I just, I don't know anybody who could.
- 1:11:29What did Jack do at Mayhem? 4:30. 420 wasn't that
- 1:11:34impressive. I mean, he was like third place
- 1:11:37he was. He was mediocre.
- 1:11:40He was like 420 or 430. He was, he was OK Jack.
- 1:11:44Jack was, he was in the first teat, so he didn't get to.
- 1:11:48Beat everybody he wasn't also he.
- 1:11:50Wasn't actually really. Competing.
- 1:11:51He was just there for exhibition, so it doesn't count.
- 1:11:54Yeah dude, he's just chilling. I.
- 1:11:56Actually think this, the workouts stack up really, really
- 1:12:00good for Jack. I don't know how fit he is like
- 1:12:02right, So if he's not top tier fitness and I think he said he's
- 1:12:05not, but the workouts themselves all stack up amazing.
- 1:12:09We're talking about Jack Rosamund or Jack Farlow.
- 1:12:12I'm talking. About Jack Rosamund.
- 1:12:14OK, I was talking. About Farlow, you were talking.
- 1:12:16About that's why I said it didn't matter.
- 1:12:18I was talking about Rosamund. No, no, you're, you're.
- 1:12:20Good. Yeah, Yeah, Jack Farlow didn't
- 1:12:21do great. Yeah, Rosamund did.
- 1:12:23I'll start referring to him as his last.
- 1:12:25Name, but please do. After doing you've only.
- 1:12:31Done one, right? I've only done one.
- 1:12:34Well, I mean I. Have done, Isabel, But yeah, you
- 1:12:37know what? What order would you do that in
- 1:12:40case Dallin is watching? What order should Dallin?
- 1:12:42Well, listen, Dallin knows how to adjust his training.
- 1:12:45You know what I mean? He's he's, he's, he's going to.
- 1:12:47He's already got an. Order planned out and he told.
- 1:12:50And you know, Jason will probably argue with them and
- 1:12:52then they'll end up coming to an agreement and just doing it.
- 1:12:56I can't wait till he throws that in my face.
- 1:12:57Next weekend. I think you do, Isabel. 1st.
- 1:13:03And then like everybody says that.
- 1:13:07And then after. That.
- 1:13:09Cleaning dirt. Well, I'm trying to.
- 1:13:12Think of what the last one should be.
- 1:13:15Where would. You put the last one, yeah.
- 1:13:17I mean, you could. I just don't know how it's
- 1:13:19going. To make you feel over time it.
- 1:13:24I think this workout, the workout we did.
- 1:13:26Has a potential to be devastating, like if you could
- 1:13:29move that really, really, really, really fast.
- 1:13:32But I mean, the lunge workout could stack up if you're moving
- 1:13:35really, really, really fast. I don't think it'll be that bad
- 1:13:38on them, but I still think their legs will be juiced.
- 1:13:42I kind of think you do that 30 minute AMRAP when you want to
- 1:13:45feel OK the next day, like because it's just a workout,
- 1:13:48you're moving the whole time. I don't think you're really
- 1:13:51hurting after that, you know what I mean?
- 1:13:55So you do, Isabel. Like 2.
- 1:13:57O'clock shows up tomorrow. You do, Isabel.
- 1:14:00Like you warm up 2:00 or 3:00 Eastern, you hit Isabel right
- 1:14:07away. Do you do anything else that
- 1:14:08day? No.
- 1:14:09Yeah, I think you do. Isabel within the 30.
- 1:14:10Minute AMRAP. What's the it's row?
- 1:14:17Toes to bar. And what's the third movement?
- 1:14:20Rope climbs. Rope climbs, yeah.
- 1:14:22Yeah. All your stuff is primed.
- 1:14:25Up to do that like you know you have a good rest you have a good
- 1:14:27meal and then you come back and you hit that 30 minute AMRAP and
- 1:14:30then I think the they they have 5 days right three days, four
- 1:14:34days four days from. 5 workouts OK.
- 1:14:37And then you do I. Think you do the, I think you do
- 1:14:41the. Interval workout you.
- 1:14:42Probably do the GHD the GHD lunch workout The next day
- 1:14:48you're going to do toaster bar. It's. 110 total.
- 1:14:53It's not going. To be a ton for them, I probably
- 1:14:56like they they will be able. To do that.
- 1:14:58And then, but then like then you're done.
- 1:15:00Hear, hear me out. Here's here's why I'm saying
- 1:15:01this. I think you do the GHG workout,
- 1:15:03lunge workout. And then if you want to, you
- 1:15:06don't have to, but if you want to, you do the interval workout
- 1:15:08that day too. And then you take a rest day
- 1:15:11completely off and then you do the back squat.
- 1:15:15Yeah. And then you do the back squat
- 1:15:16ring muscle up workout. And then any redo you might want
- 1:15:19to do, I think you could. Do you think they'll be able to
- 1:15:22redo because I see Jason Bourne says 30 minute AMRAP last maybe
- 1:15:28I think that one will be easy to get better at your recover.
- 1:15:32Well, no, I just think. You'll recover well from that
- 1:15:35though, right? But there's so much like.
- 1:15:38Your, your splits become very important, right?
- 1:15:42And your, your brakes become very important.
- 1:15:44So it's like, OK, I could tighten this up.
- 1:15:45I could row this cadence instead of the one that I rode and I
- 1:15:49think I'll be fine. I just feel like you.
- 1:15:50That's why dude. No, but if you want to redo.
- 1:15:56That one, just to see it is the easiest one to redo, right?
- 1:16:00I mean, Isabel might be the easiest one to be to redo, but
- 1:16:03that's a really hard one to like be like to get splits.
- 1:16:08I think your best chance with Isabel is to do it.
- 1:16:11Fresh and then kill it, Yeah. Like that's I, I, I.
- 1:16:15Agree. I think the 30 minute.
- 1:16:16AMRAP 1 you might redo, but I think for the fittest in the
- 1:16:21world, like Dallon and Jason, I think they're just know they're
- 1:16:23going to be good enough. Those are literally going to be
- 1:16:25one of the highest scores we see.
- 1:16:27I think Jason is going to win that workout.
- 1:16:29And overall in the world, the interval workout you might
- 1:16:33repeat because it's a very repeatable 1 and you know
- 1:16:37exactly how many burpees you were getting and you're like,
- 1:16:40OK, I'm going to hold one more burpee more.
- 1:16:44I think that one's going to be stressful for a lot.
- 1:16:46Of the athletes because it is one extra burpee what if you
- 1:16:51don't press overhead all the. Way finish the lockout it'd be a
- 1:16:54bunch of stuff like that right and it's.
- 1:16:58It's. Yeah, when you're talking just a
- 1:17:03handful. Of burpees each round like.
- 1:17:09There's a big different, like a handful like. 5 reps could mean
- 1:17:13you'd go into the games and you not right And so could be big
- 1:17:18jumps. Yeah, for sure.
- 1:17:19Yeah. Let's see before.
- 1:17:22We move on real quick to blind rankings.
- 1:17:27Heat one app, let's do it. Are we doing it?

- 1:21:17win $500 hundo dollars. Brought to you by WPTH.
- 1:21:24There you go. So go sign up.

- 1:21:28I'll see you on the leaderboard. I'll probably beat Tyler for
- 1:21:31sure. John will be close.
- 1:21:36Good luck. So I think I do, I think I do
- 1:21:40better on the top, I think I do better on the top ten than the
- 1:21:43props. So I you are really good at top
- 1:21:4510 rankings. It's because they're lucky.
- 1:21:48And he's really lucky. Is it every time?
- 1:21:52Yeah, when I mean when it comes to picking.
- 1:21:54People who's going to win? That's the skill.
- 1:21:56And he doesn't. He's just good at, you know,
- 1:21:58knowing when injuries. No, it's because he knows when
- 1:22:00injuries happen or when people don't play before anybody else.
- 1:22:05Weird. All right.
- 1:22:07Blind Rankings. Let's see.
- 1:22:10I'm I'm excited. Blind rankings is.
- 1:22:12Back. This. 1.
- 1:22:14It's been a few I like. The top 10 game, but.
- 1:22:17It's OK, it's a little something different.
- 1:22:20Blind. Rankings this week we.
- 1:22:24Are. No games Who are the.
- 1:22:29You're going to rank. The most likely athletes to not
- 1:22:34qualify for the 2025 crossword game this season.
- 1:22:38If you watched coffee pods and wads around the whiteboard this
- 1:22:42afternoon, I'm the only one who gave real answers.
- 1:22:45And I got penalized for it. And you got?
- 1:22:48Yeah. Pedro is not kind to you, so
- 1:22:50this is your redemption. You guys can play along.
- 1:22:56I got to pull this up cross. That killed that take out all
- 1:23:00the vows. That's good.
- 1:23:05I like it. That's a fun brand.
- 1:23:09So yeah, we're going through it. So when you were making this
- 1:23:12game, were you like? You know what?
- 1:23:13I think too many people like us. We need to burn some bridges.
- 1:23:17That's right. Something.
- 1:23:19That something like that. Tyler should be really good at
- 1:23:23this game though. So yeah, Tyler, I'm going to
- 1:23:26defer my game. Because you are the king of
- 1:23:28knowing who sucks, most likely. To not make.
- 1:23:32The games AKA the quitter ranking.
- 1:23:37I don't think you could. I don't think you could put.
- 1:23:39Annika Greer on the list though. Like why not?
- 1:23:41She's the captain of not making the.
- 1:23:43Games, yeah, but if he doesn't like, that's not a surprise.
- 1:23:45Like she's always like, last, the first one out.
- 1:23:48So first, first, last, yeah. All right, here we go.
- 1:23:52First one Yonakowsky 4. Tyler.
- 1:24:01He's not. He can't do.
- 1:24:03He's got world fitness project next week and he just he just
- 1:24:08did wildland and like there's no recovery and then into an
- 1:24:14affiliate and then French throwdown is doing world fitness
- 1:24:16project. If he does not make an affiliate
- 1:24:19semi finals, if he doesn't make it there, he doesn't make the
- 1:24:22games. He.
- 1:24:25Just did wildland. And OK, this last weekend, if he
- 1:24:30does not make the games here online top 11 in the world, he
- 1:24:37does not go to the. Games do you think?
- 1:24:39Norc first of all, do you think if if that?
- 1:24:40Happens he does not qualify. Do you think Norcal gives him an
- 1:24:43invite and if yes, does he accept it?
- 1:24:47No. I think he would.
- 1:24:50I think he would why just to travel again No to go to the.
- 1:24:54Games, Tyler, it's. Stuff that's important to some.
- 1:24:58Maybe you're one of the people who voted yes.
- 1:25:00I prefer to go to the World Fitness project in the freaking
- 1:25:03CrossFit Games, dude. Leslie's.
- 1:25:06Hey, shut up, John. That's not Leslie he will take.
- 1:25:09That as a compliment. Thanks.
- 1:25:12I, I I. Understand your reasoning.
- 1:25:15I forget to factor. In the WFP, every single.
- 1:25:18Time. That's right.
- 1:25:20OK, I'll go 3/3. I would say 2.
- 1:25:27But I'm good with three. I can I I will defer to Tyler on
- 1:25:30this the. Three, what is the tree you're
- 1:25:37grabbing the the thing? Not the the hell there.
- 1:25:39We go. There we go.
- 1:25:42All right, next one let's. Hope I didn't mess all this.
- 1:25:43Up Joan Haley Adams. I think Haley's going to make
- 1:25:48it. Online, I think Haley could not
- 1:25:52have asked for a better like she moves 90% really, really good is
- 1:25:59we know she's good at Isabel somehow she's good at Isabel.
- 1:26:02It's not pretty, but she's she's good at it.
- 1:26:06I think she squats just fine. I think her ring muscles are
- 1:26:09just fine. And again, the women feel, well,
- 1:26:12GHDS. Dude, I think she's going.
- 1:26:13To win that workout, she's got 2 GHDS, essentially toes of.
- 1:26:16Barn GHDS, right? And I think that rowing rope.
- 1:26:19Climb workout is going to be really, really good for her too.
- 1:26:22I know she's not as fit as she used to be, but these workouts
- 1:26:25stack up really well for her. And when a workout stacks up
- 1:26:28well for her, she's still phenomenal.
- 1:26:31She destroyed everybody in the GAC workout at Mayhem and those
- 1:26:34girls were really, really good too.
- 1:26:36So I would one thing I would say is I don't think.
- 1:26:39Haley went into mayhem Ready, ready.
- 1:26:43Like she. Said Haley.
- 1:26:44Of old. Would have dominated.
- 1:26:45I don't buy. It at all?
- 1:26:46I don't buy that at all. I don't think she's as.
- 1:26:50Fit as she used to be. I don't think it matters.
- 1:26:54Let me agree. With you but.
- 1:26:56Violently real quick. Vicky last chance qualifier.
- 1:27:01We don't even freaking know what the last chance qualifier is.
- 1:27:04What was that the last chance? What kind of?
- 1:27:07What kind of holler? Accident was that you wouldn't.
- 1:27:10I don't know. I don't know.
- 1:27:11I can't. Breathe.
- 1:27:12I can't breathe. Why else?
- 1:27:14Chance qualifier. I literally cannot breathe.
- 1:27:17It brings out the Southern. In me, I say Haley.
- 1:27:22'S A5 dude. I think she makes it an
- 1:27:24affiliate I. Even if she doesn't make it.
- 1:27:28An affiliate, She'll make it. Somewhere else she'll make it a
- 1:27:30syndicate then dude. Because A.
- 1:27:31Lot of the syndicate girls are going to be taken up.
- 1:27:33I know she sucked at Mayhem. I know.
- 1:27:36I just think she's I. Think she's going to be fine
- 1:27:41even? Though I refuse to believe that
- 1:27:44she's as fit as she used to be. All right, so Haley's A.
- 1:27:47Lock OK you. Hold on time, on time, on time,
- 1:27:50do we? Think Olivia Curstetter is on
- 1:27:52this list? Because I think Olivia
- 1:27:54Curstetter makes it over Hayley Adams.
- 1:27:59No, she's not on the list. OK.
- 1:28:02All right. She's on the.
- 1:28:04List. He made a face.
- 1:28:04I didn't. Make anything.
- 1:28:07Here we go. Next up, Emily Rolf.
- 1:28:16I oh, I wouldn't say. One I wouldn't.
- 1:28:18Say 1. I, I would say 2.
- 1:28:19I would say 2. Listen, I still think she should
- 1:28:22make it. I just think it's going to be
- 1:28:25harder than people think. I think if she makes it at DFX,
- 1:28:28she'll be second place and it's going to be really close between
- 1:28:31her second and third. I don't I think it's way harder
- 1:28:34to be top 2 than to be top ten in any given field.
- 1:28:39I I just, it's like like like a Chris Ibarra is going to have
- 1:28:42trouble making the top 2 even though he could be top 15 at the
- 1:28:46games. It's way, you know what I'm
- 1:28:49saying? Just being pretty good at
- 1:28:50everything. I don't think she makes it
- 1:28:53online because they take away like running is her best thing
- 1:28:55and there's not it's shuttle runs.
- 1:28:57And I think isn't else just going to get her OK?
- 1:29:00She's not doing. It online if it's just TFX and
- 1:29:03you said that she had an invite to Norcal, right?
- 1:29:06I think she should make it. I do think it's going to be much
- 1:29:10harder than people think, like it's not a given, and I feel the
- 1:29:16same way with. James even less so.
- 1:29:17Even less so with James, but yes, I would say 2.
- 1:29:22OK, two I'm good with two I, I. Do I like Emily Rolfe?
- 1:29:27She does have a have a tendency to like hit a Homer in the last
- 1:29:30minute. So yeah, I'm going to give it to
- 1:29:34her. She she's pulled it out before.
- 1:29:35So can I explain this because. Nick isn't intelligent enough to
- 1:29:41understand what I'm trying to say.
- 1:29:44It's harder to be top 2IN any competition than top ten in like
- 1:29:51a really really good field. Like if you're supposed to be
- 1:29:55one of the best people in that competition, I still think it's
- 1:29:58harder to be top 2 than it is top 10.
- 1:30:01At the games. Because you're always going to
- 1:30:03have your home runs and that's going to skew the leaderboard.
- 1:30:06And it's not the case whenever you have to be top 2, like
- 1:30:10you'll skew the leaderboard to being fifth.
- 1:30:13Top two you cannot have. A bad event.
- 1:30:15You can't have a bad event. No, I I agree.
- 1:30:19I. Mean This is why it's so hard,
- 1:30:20like in affiliate semifinals. So there's so many more people
- 1:30:23in it. And if this is the case, then
- 1:30:24quit freaking. Playing 'cause you're pissing me
- 1:30:26off so much. Nick you're, you're approaching
- 1:30:30Magnus levels. Nick Nick, if you need AT shirt
- 1:30:33just reach. Out to John Young.
- 1:30:35Feel free. All right, here we go.
- 1:30:42Next up. Anyol Ikai, why he's not going
- 1:30:50to the games? He's never.
- 1:30:52Going to the games. Ever.
- 1:30:53I don't. Think that I.
- 1:30:56Think he's really fit? You argued with me.
- 1:31:02About this before Joan. He's never going to the games.
- 1:31:05Again. Again, that's rough.
- 1:31:12It's a feel thing. It's just.
- 1:31:13Like you, you were hype on, you weren't hype on Tyler Crisfield,
- 1:31:17but you believe that he could make it to the Games.
- 1:31:18And I, I just like, I never felt that energy from him.
- 1:31:21I think Annual's a great athlete, but I just don't see
- 1:31:23him making to the Games in the way that we have to qualify now
- 1:31:26not. Going to make it an affiliate
- 1:31:29or? Is he going to make it?
- 1:31:31French Throwdown? He can't.
- 1:31:33World Fitness project. Done.
- 1:31:35The problem is I think. He's he's.
- 1:31:37Actually pretty good at online qualifiers.
- 1:31:40The problem is I just don't know.
- 1:31:41Coming off 5 days, four days of Wadland.
- 1:31:47Like can you? Turn it around and beat.
- 1:31:49Guys who have been prepping for this without that right like.
- 1:31:55If he had. Skipped Wadland and done.
- 1:31:58He'd have a chance. I'd have AI would have a.
- 1:32:00Higher. I'd put him higher on the
- 1:32:02probability of qualifying, but where would you put him?
- 1:32:06Probably 12. I'm with you, Tyler.
- 1:32:16I I. I don't, I, I, I don't think
- 1:32:19he'll never make the games. I don't think that I think he
- 1:32:22makes the game for the next year.
- 1:32:24I think he's getting fitter and fitter and he's on his way up.
- 1:32:27And I was really impressed with him at Socal.
- 1:32:31I know it's a showcase. It's not like a competition, but
- 1:32:34I was. But I'm I'm.
- 1:32:37With you, I think he's. The least likely out of the
- 1:32:39names we have right here. I'll be interested to see what
- 1:32:43the last name is, but I think you'll probably make the games
- 1:32:47next year, but I'm with you about it on next year.
- 1:32:50All right, we'll find out the last one.
- 1:32:52Olivia Kersteger. It is not.
- 1:32:54Olivia Kersteger, it is James Sprague.
- 1:32:59Oh, yeah, this is fine. All right.
- 1:33:00Great list. James, probably.
- 1:33:03Should have been 5th. I think James should be 5th but
- 1:33:06other than that, great list. I for the record.
- 1:33:09I don't think James. Won't make the games.
- 1:33:12I just think that was just what you said on.
- 1:33:14Coffee pods and. Watch, I said.
- 1:33:16I I don't think. That he won't make the games.
- 1:33:19I said that. But I do think it's going to be
- 1:33:22really tight. What was the question?
- 1:33:24John who? Doesn't make the.
- 1:33:25Games, yeah, but he said he won't not.
- 1:33:28Make the games, I said. No, it was what?
- 1:33:31Man is the most danger of not making the games, meaning all
- 1:33:36the guys that are going to make the games every year, who's in
- 1:33:38the most? Who's in the most danger?
- 1:33:41He's he's in danger. OK, listen, listen.
- 1:33:46It's it's a it's if Steph Khan, the three.
- 1:33:49OK, all right. I picked the.
- 1:33:51I picked the one I picked. The one.
- 1:33:53In the middle and I didn't know which one is up and down 5's the
- 1:33:57worst OK, so we're. Really like Defcon 2.
- 1:34:01Yeah, OK. Well, there you.
- 1:34:03Go. Sorry, Anil.
- 1:34:05Emily. Yoda, so 3.
- 1:34:10Out of five not making it. Yeah, well, I.
- 1:34:14Emily Yoda probably should be second, but he was the first
- 1:34:19name. That we got.
- 1:34:20That's fair. That's.
- 1:34:24Fair and the last one. Good list.
- 1:34:25Good job, John. You did it.
- 1:34:28It was. Mostly you.
- 1:34:30Before we get into. Buying Tyler's and Jeanette's
- 1:34:34baby gift. There's another baby on the way,
- 1:34:37but it's in different circumstances.
- 1:34:39Mitch Hooper. Oh, forget Mitchell Hooper is a
- 1:34:43little bit of a hot water. There really is a baby on the
- 1:34:46way. Yeah, there is, man.
- 1:34:50Mitchell Hooper. Puts out a statement that he's
- 1:34:54been chatting with, apparently, his wife, maid of honor.
- 1:34:59Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't talk.
- 1:35:02Bad about. Her bro, she's honorable.
- 1:35:06Honorable. The honorable.
- 1:35:07Hoes, the honorable maid. So lifetime.
- 1:35:11Movie. Doesn't.
- 1:35:12It. The honorable maid.
- 1:35:14So yeah, they in his defense. They were, they were.
- 1:35:19You know they were. Negotiating A separation, were
- 1:35:23they? That's what he says.
- 1:35:25That's what he says. Her.
- 1:35:28Story was. The greatest though, it was so
- 1:35:31sad. Can you feel?
- 1:35:32Can you feel a sin? I don't know.
- 1:35:34Tell a story. Span.
- 1:35:35Tell a story. People I've got I got 20.
- 1:35:38People DM me like great justice or vengeance or something like
- 1:35:42that. I'm like, gosh, I, I have
- 1:35:44nothing to do with this right now.
- 1:35:46It's a lot is I don't even know what's going on right now.
- 1:35:48No. No, I, I, I, you know, I.
- 1:35:50It's you're going through some stuff.
- 1:35:52I don't. I don't wish pain on anybody.
- 1:35:56It's. Got to feel a little a little.
- 1:35:58Nice. And why would it feel nice?
- 1:36:00That he's a. Horrible person, No.
- 1:36:03Well. Not that he's a horrible.
- 1:36:05Person, but but because he threw so much shit at you and acting
- 1:36:11all high and mighty and then he's like, Oh yeah, but I mean,
- 1:36:15I'm banging another chick, but my fault.
- 1:36:17That's not Mitchell Hoover, by the way.
- 1:36:19He's. Not he's not, he's not on a, on
- 1:36:21a FaceTime with the woman that he was talking about.
- 1:36:25No, this is this is Mattis. Not not Matthias, and it's Borg
- 1:36:31Bjorheim. He put out a video name where he
- 1:36:35summarizes everything basically. Thanks, Summer.
- 1:36:41She is my. Partner, by the way.
- 1:36:43For the. Community pairs.
- 1:36:46I still need to find a. Partner, we're in the open.
- 1:36:48Division, by the way, if you. Want to like we're in the open
- 1:36:51division. I want to not worry about it
- 1:36:53well. I'm saying if you want to not.
- 1:36:55Be with us via the quarters division.
- 1:36:57If you want to be with without me and her, then then we're in
- 1:37:01the open division. Like if you want to get somebody
- 1:37:03that's that level, fair enough. I'm going to get.
- 1:37:07Home run. Abby.
- 1:37:09Dolman and do the open division. Mitchell Hooper.
- 1:37:14Put out a story today basically saying that there's been
- 1:37:18personal matters involving him and his family that have come to
- 1:37:21light, which is an interesting way of putting it as I believe
- 1:37:28his wife went public. So I don't know how it's come to
- 1:37:31light how you say that. But anyway, he's been speaking
- 1:37:35with another woman, which was his assistant and wife's maid of
- 1:37:40honor. And now he asks for hold on,
- 1:37:44that's. Hard.
- 1:37:47What's hard? I don't.
- 1:37:48Think if I'm. My if I'm the wife that I let
- 1:37:52him have like is the is her. Maid of honor, Like really good.
- 1:37:56Looking. That's her right there.
- 1:38:01This is a bad angle spin I'm. Not going to judge her on that.
- 1:38:05You just judge her by saying. That.
- 1:38:08How about that angle? Is that better?
- 1:38:09That's a better. Angle.
- 1:38:10That's a better angle. That's.
- 1:38:11A better angle. I just, I just that's, I mean,
- 1:38:15if he has a history of cheating, which he did, like, I think you
- 1:38:19get a guy assistant if you need an assistant, yeah, you got to
- 1:38:23know your weaknesses. You don't.
- 1:38:24Have some PrettyLittleThing. Walking around, you can't live
- 1:38:27within a five mile radius. Of McDonald's if you have a
- 1:38:30problem. What?
- 1:38:38Kind of a what kind of a spray was that, Tyler?
- 1:38:44That was so me. That was me in the middle.
- 1:38:48You, Cooper, do. You live within a.
- 1:38:50Five mile. Radius call me whatever he wants
- 1:38:53to call. Me then have to live through
- 1:38:55that comment. That was me that hurt I I know
- 1:38:59that. We're.
- 1:39:00Friends and that was that. Didn't like that at all That.
- 1:39:03That hurt me more than any Big Mama.
- 1:39:04Ever could within a five mile radius of of.
- 1:39:07McDonald's I do all stand. You're.
- 1:39:13Taking care of it. Yeah, Ashley put out.
- 1:39:17Put out some stories. There's the Maid of.
- 1:39:21Honor. There she was, and then he has.
- 1:39:29He went up to Reddit. Which I guess if you want to go
- 1:39:31check it out, you can go to the gym shark subreddit and there's
- 1:39:35a thread there. Apparently the strongman
- 1:39:39subreddit has started suspending people for using his name
- 1:39:44because I guess they're afraid of like, I don't know what bad
- 1:39:48press. Probably they're.
- 1:39:51Trying to say it's like. Violating terms and harassment
- 1:39:54or something like that. Dumbest thing I've ever heard in
- 1:39:56my life. And so like this this Reddit
- 1:39:59has. Like 300 comments on it.
- 1:40:01I would say half of them are complaining that the strongman
- 1:40:05Reddit group. Being stupid and how it's just
- 1:40:09going. To be shut down.
- 1:40:11Nobody's going to go to it. I saw somebody was creating
- 1:40:13their own new strongman subreddit.
- 1:40:16Stronger man. To not do that.
- 1:40:20So yeah, quite the quite the drama in the strongman community
- 1:40:23at this moment. Let's see.
- 1:40:25Well I like what this says though it it says.
- 1:40:27That he's been trying to manipulate, manipulating
- 1:40:30statements about Ashley's heartache, that their marriage
- 1:40:34was breaking down, which doesn't add up to her because they're
- 1:40:38about to have another baby, right?
- 1:40:41And that's a good point. You're not having another baby
- 1:40:44if your marriage is breaking down.
- 1:40:45You don't have to be in love to make a baby.
- 1:40:48I understand that. Tyler, let's see where.
- 1:40:53Was it he had? Another screenshot, here it is.
- 1:40:57I think Hiller had this in his video too, but this goes back to
- 1:41:03when he. Was standing by.
- 1:41:05Luke Stoltman's wife at the time when when that was going on.
- 1:41:11What's crazy is all this happens.
- 1:41:14He puts out Hooper, puts out that story and from what I can.
- 1:41:18Tell and piece together. Three hours later, he posted his
- 1:41:22regularly scheduled YouTube video for the day of.
- 1:41:26What was he doing, back squats or something?
- 1:41:30He was doing. He was.
- 1:41:31Working out. Dude, you got to be crazy to
- 1:41:35just go ahead. And go to the.
- 1:41:39Is this YouTube channel gone? What?
- 1:41:43No, it was. Was it live?
- 1:41:45It was. A it.
- 1:41:46Was a while. Ago.
- 1:41:47What's that? It's in the the back.
- 1:41:49Squat video you're talking. About well.
- 1:41:53That the one that was AI? That's not AI.
- 1:41:56Oh. It wasn't.
- 1:41:57AI, it's not AI, No, no. Yeah, I think it was.
- 1:42:04He may have taken it. He may have taken it down.
- 1:42:07I think there was another video on here that he had posted like
- 1:42:11recently, or maybe that was it. I don't know.
- 1:42:13But it was like right, like hours after he posted that he
- 1:42:16was like, I'm just going to post my video like really?
- 1:42:22So anyway, that is what Savon's going to be talking about here
- 1:42:26in 15 minutes if you want to go check that out.
- 1:42:28That one will be a bit unhinged. Savon.
- 1:42:32Savon's doing a deep. Dive on it on the whole thing
- 1:42:36so. So.
- 1:42:38It's. Well, if you're, if you're not
- 1:42:41going to be happy about it, John, I'm going to be happy for
- 1:42:43you because that dude run you through the shredder and I'm
- 1:42:47not, I'm not happy. About it for for her in the
- 1:42:50field. No, I'm not either.
- 1:42:52Like you know their. Lives are a little bit.
- 1:42:54Ruined and I got to put it together like I I get I get and
- 1:42:57I appreciate people being happy for me that this man is a liar
- 1:43:04he's. Going through a hard time.
- 1:43:07But. I I.
- 1:43:09Don't. I don't think I don't.
- 1:43:11Think the right thing is to is to is to be happy in someone's
- 1:43:16destruction. I don't, I don't, I don't think
- 1:43:18that ever. I didn't think that with Bryant,
- 1:43:20you know what I mean? He continued to destroy himself.
- 1:43:23And I just hate hypocrites. And he was so he was so gung ho
- 1:43:30against you, but it but it showed out.
- 1:43:32It showed out. I'm not I'm.
- 1:43:34Still good at it's going on and I'm also not surprised like
- 1:43:39months ago if you'd asked me if something like this was going to
- 1:43:41happen, I'd have been like, probably I I just this I'm
- 1:43:44prisoner, Brian brought up like. Rumors of that happening like 8
- 1:43:49months ago or him or Peter or whatever.
- 1:43:51I'm sorry, I wasn't supposed to say that, but and.
- 1:43:55There's there's rumors float out there real quick.
- 1:43:59Dixie Dave, what a night for the Hooper.
- 1:44:02Maybe fun. We're going to.
- 1:44:04Give that to Tyler. But.
- 1:44:08Thank you, Dixie. I need it more than Hooper, but
- 1:44:12I I I. I get you.
- 1:44:14I get. You, you see where I'm coming
- 1:44:15from though, Like if you if something bad happened with you,
- 1:44:19not saying something never would, but like if something bad
- 1:44:21happened with you and like the world just wanted to just
- 1:44:25continue to just tell you you're a terrible, terrible person and
- 1:44:29all this stuff, like would you not be like why?
- 1:44:33Why do y'all I hate me so much? You know what I mean?
- 1:44:36Like I get that. I'm not the best guy, but you,
- 1:44:40you understand what I'm saying? I, I don't know.
- 1:44:42And maybe I'm, maybe I'm sentimental because this has
- 1:44:44happened to me twice. You know what I mean?
- 1:44:46Like where like everybody just wants to tell you you're the
- 1:44:49worst person ever. Now he was the reason for one of
- 1:44:53those times, but yes but. OK, so if.
- 1:44:57This happened to him and you had nothing to do with it.
- 1:45:02And like he. Never he.
- 1:45:04Never. Like white knighted for women
- 1:45:07and it wouldn't matter. And I'm not trying to, you know,
- 1:45:11rub his face in the dirt more than he's already going to get
- 1:45:14to. It's just, it's just like.
- 1:45:17Nice. To know you were right.
- 1:45:19Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:45:21Yeah. Yeah, we'll bring this up.
- 1:45:23Real quick. But like like I I first saw that
- 1:45:26when. I first saw it or, you know,
- 1:45:28when people were messaging me about it, I mean, like, well, I
- 1:45:32mean, you know, it comes back to you.
- 1:45:33And I like that's, that's that's how I thought about it.
- 1:45:36Like, it it, you know, God's got a funny way of doing some stuff
- 1:45:40and like, it, it comes back to you.
- 1:45:43But then, but then it's all then it's then it's done in my head.
- 1:45:45You know what I mean? Yeah, this one's crazy.
- 1:45:49So he did a. Live.
- 1:45:50When was this? A month ago?
- 1:45:52One month ago. What's your?
- 1:45:56Biggest life regret? What is your biggest regret in
- 1:45:59your life? Like I had a long term partner
- 1:46:05before. My wife that I cheated on.
- 1:46:11Did you hear that? What you're seeing here is a oh.
- 1:46:16How does Michael Scott say it? A pattern?
- 1:46:20A PAT pattern. Pat took a turn.
- 1:46:26Like I had a long term. Partner before my wife that I
- 1:46:29cheated on Oh OK he. Said.
- 1:46:32Partner. Maybe it's a Luke.
- 1:46:33Stoltman situation. He didn't say.
- 1:46:35He didn't specify gender. Yeah, no.
- 1:46:38No judgement. What do you?
- 1:46:41What do you? What do you mean?
- 1:46:42What do you mean? Sivan, how did your wife feel
- 1:46:44about this situation? Does she?
- 1:46:45Know does she care? She saw.
- 1:46:49Spence Post. And.
- 1:46:52I mean, she's. Similar to me, just you don't
- 1:46:56need to kick people when they're down, just kind of like a nice.
- 1:47:01Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:47:02No. It's it's OK.
- 1:47:04OK, there we go. It's a solid Tiger Woods pump on
- 1:47:07a Sunday. I'm I'm I'm that's that's where
- 1:47:11I'm at. OK.
- 1:47:12Yeah, it's a solid that yes, I'm with you.
- 1:47:15Tiger Woods wearing a red shirt with that fist pump.
- 1:47:17That that's what it is. OK.
- 1:47:20I don't think we should go on the same vendetta that they that
- 1:47:25the strong people community and the grid people community did at
- 1:47:29me. Does that make sense?
- 1:47:31100% agree. Don't.
- 1:47:32Don't. Yeah, that's the thing that I
- 1:47:34hate. Like the you know where left or
- 1:47:37right, it doesn't matter, but it's like the left was doing all
- 1:47:39this stuff and then the right turns around and does all the
- 1:47:41same shit right back and it's like, don't do that.
- 1:47:45That's that's all I'm saying. Like I'm I'm I'm with spins
- 1:47:48post, I'm with you know what I mean?
- 1:47:51If Grant and meme wad wants to make memes for a couple days,
- 1:47:55that's fine, you know what I mean?
- 1:47:57But like, after that, I just don't feel, I don't know, I
- 1:48:01don't feel a vendetta. So I don't think anybody else
- 1:48:03should because I don't keeping it real.
- 1:48:06Grant How? How far did you have to set your
- 1:48:08range on Tinder to see that he was in He was on Tinder.
- 1:48:14Yeah. What?
- 1:48:16What? Else does he say here?
- 1:48:17I wish that I just broke that off.
- 1:48:19Like respectively. That's probably.
- 1:48:23Like the worst. Thing that I've done.
- 1:48:25In my life. There you go.
- 1:48:29That was it. This.
- 1:48:29Was this was a month? Ago.
- 1:48:34And he's probably banging that girl.
- 1:48:35When he's saying this, yeah, like I, I'm that, that's where I
- 1:48:39get. It that Reddit post you read?
- 1:48:41Was like. Wait, they're on the out and out
- 1:48:43and then he's talking about this like that doesn't all.
- 1:48:47Add up I love. I love when.
- 1:48:49People start to regret stuff after they get caught.
- 1:48:52Not during after. That's when you're supposed to,
- 1:48:55right? Right.
- 1:48:59So yeah, also I wonder if he was thinking about his current.
- 1:49:02Situation when he said that. Seriously, I'm wondering.
- 1:49:08I wonder if he. Feels bad for what he's doing,
- 1:49:12like while talking. About that.
- 1:49:14And it's kind of a way of confessing without confessing,
- 1:49:17you know what I mean? Like I, you know, I'm just
- 1:49:20trying to peek into his psyche a little bit there.
- 1:49:24You go Cole Sager. He's out, not competing in the
- 1:49:28CrossFit Games. Do you buy his video?
- 1:49:3599% of it I agree. I agree.
- 1:49:41With post his post. Can you summarize it for me?
- 1:49:44I'm not watching that, he said. It has nothing to do with
- 1:49:47CrossFit. And he's just done competing.
- 1:49:50He he like directly looks at the camera and was like this has
- 1:49:53nothing to do with CrossFit and what's going on, though he's had
- 1:49:58he's not had the best bedside manner with CrossFit.
- 1:50:03He has nothing to do with that. He's just done.
- 1:50:05Did he not just tear his Achilles?
- 1:50:08I am not going to be competing in the.
- 1:50:09CrossFit game season anymore. If you want to hear more, keep
- 1:50:13watching. If not, I just want to say thank
- 1:50:16you. I've had an amazing career and I
- 1:50:19appreciate you all. This isn't the music's driving
- 1:50:22me crazy, but. It's a retirement post.
- 1:50:26This is more. Like a I'll see a round post.
- 1:50:29I'm not done with athletics, I'm just done competing in the
- 1:50:32CrossFit game season. I hated that comment.
- 1:50:39Why this isn't? I'm retiring post.
- 1:50:43This is a I'll see a round post. This is not a freaking.
- 1:50:49Jerry Maguire movie. Like it it?
- 1:50:53Yeah, it is. I don't know why he's trying to
- 1:50:55be so sappy about it. Just be like, I'm done
- 1:50:57competing. That's it.
- 1:50:59It's a wrap. Yeah, fair.
- 1:51:02You're not, I don't think. I'll see you around is what I'm
- 1:51:04saying. You follow up train you can.
- 1:51:07Up in the skill set and throw down an.
- 1:51:09Event here and there. I just don't have the desire to
- 1:51:14commit to the CrossFit Game season anymore.
- 1:51:16And I see, I believe that. Statement Well.
- 1:51:24Does. Is he a WF?
- 1:51:26P athlete. He's not right.
- 1:51:27No, no, he's got his. Own he's got.
- 1:51:30His own training system. Yeah, he's, he's taking the
- 1:51:32comp. Train we kind of expected it
- 1:51:34whatever two years ago you. Know so I'm.
- 1:51:40Not going to play the. Whole thing.
- 1:51:42But yeah, you. Can go watch that.
- 1:51:46On his Instagram page. But he's no longer going to
- 1:51:50compete. I didn't, I didn't.
- 1:51:52I don't think any of us have him going back to the Games even if
- 1:51:55he was going to compete. So I don't think it's a
- 1:51:58surprise. And then.
