0:03
Well,
0:03
we are announcing next week this show will
0:06
now appear on Flow Elite for as low
0:09
as twenty nine ninety five a month.
0:36
From the gym to the screen, yeah,
0:37

Midday motivation every time you press

High power hustle, yeah,

we building that brand.
0:52
Grab a plate, tune in now,
0:54
you part of the fam.
0:58
What is going on, everybody?
1:00
Welcome to Lunch with the Clydesdales.
1:02
We are live.
1:05
And we're streaming.
1:06
That's a good thing these days because who
1:09
knows what else is going to happen,
1:12
where it's going to happen, whatever.
1:15
If you did not purchase Flow Elite to
1:20
watch today's action in Del Mar,
1:24
this is what you would see if you
1:25
paid twenty nine ninety five a month to
1:29
subscribe to the service.
1:31
So you guys aren't missing out.
1:33
I'm showing you the live stream right now.
1:37
This is where we're at.
1:43
It's crazy.
1:46
It's crazy.
1:50
So what's going on, man?
1:51
We've got Winter in the chat.
1:54
We've got Meredith, Ken Walters.
1:56
What's going on?
1:58
Jody, Lito.
2:01
mark phillips grant hexi lover i need your
2:07
yabba dabba doo please so here's the issue
2:12
i'm hoping to have it there by monday
2:16
but we're experiencing technical issues
2:18
with the stream no i'm just kidding um
2:22
I got this new mixer.
2:24
It's a different way to load the sounds
2:26
into the soundboard so that I am trying
2:30
to figure that out.
2:32
Hopefully this weekend when I have a
2:33
little more time and I'm not working,
2:36
I can actually load those sounds back into
2:40
the soundboard.
2:46
Omar says, is this true?
2:47
Yes, it is true.
2:51
It is true.
2:57
Technically,
2:58
there not being a camera shooting the
3:00
action is a technical problem.
3:03
So it was live for a minute.
3:06
You could see the men's floor.
3:08
They were announcing the women while the
3:10
men's floor was being shown.
3:12
Then they went to the women's floor and
3:15
then it all just kind of went after
3:17
that.
3:21
We got Ortega in the house.
3:27
Ann Barone says she's just going to watch
3:29
Crash this weekend.
3:39
Jody says, come on, man.
3:40
Did you really think that would work?
3:44
So...
3:46
i bought flow elite back when they did
3:48
wadapalooza back in the day and it worked
3:53
it wasn't awesome it was less than awesome
3:57
but it worked and they had multiple floors
4:02
you could watch you could watch whatever
4:05
floor you wanted at the time some of
4:08
them had an only one had announcers the
4:11
other floors did not
4:16
I'm stunned that they can't,
4:17
with a company as big as Flow Elite
4:19
is,
4:20
that they can't get this up and running.
4:30
Thank you, Hexy Lover.
4:32
I'll get that yabba-dabba-doo back for
4:34
you.
4:37
I'm guessing Sivan and the boys are having
4:39
internet issues.
4:40
They didn't have any streams yesterday
4:42
other than with the peplink.
4:45
Yeah, I don't know.
4:47
I don't know.
4:48
You would think that if Flow Elite is
4:50
there and they're putting their name on
4:52
it,
4:53
they would have given them some kind of
4:55
technical assistance to help boost
4:58
everything there.
5:01
I watched their test runs.
5:02
They seem to be working fine.
5:05
I don't know.
5:11
Let's hope Syndicate is free and better.
5:13
I think Spin is doing that,
5:14
and I don't think they're doing it through
5:16
Flow Elite.
5:17
So I do think it is free.
5:20
But that's the one I'm trying to get
5:21
to.
5:22
So I'm hoping to go to that one
5:24
live.
5:31
Daniel says,
5:32
could be something more to why Sivan isn't
5:35
covering Crash.
5:36
I'm a pot stirrer.
5:39
I don't think it has anything to do
5:40
with that.
5:41
I think it has to do with Siobhan
5:44
likes to stay in California.
5:51
It's twenty twenty six.
5:52
There has to be fiber running to the
5:53
Del Mar Fairgrounds.
5:55
Yeah, I don't know.
5:56
I don't know what they're up against.
5:59
I don't know.
6:02
I'm just hoping I'm giving them the
6:04
benefit of the doubt.
6:06
It's an outdoor location with a roof and
6:10
maybe they're having some issues.
6:12
Hopefully they get it up and running in
6:14
the next few hours or so.
6:26
Also promoting peptides in the live stream
6:28
of a CrossFit sanctioned event, wild.
6:31
I don't find it that wild.
6:33
Now, you're in Europe, Lito,
6:35
but here in America,
6:38
the stuff that gets advertised on
6:39
television every day makes no sense and it
6:44
has no correlation to what is on the
6:47
TV.
6:48
I mean,
6:49
pharmaceutical companies run half of the
6:53
ads that are on TV, period.
6:56
And I know that that is unique to
6:58
the U S and maybe one other country.
7:02
And so for me, like,
7:04
I don't even really notice it.
7:06
I heard them say it.
7:07
I heard there's a discount, but it,
7:11
it's just,
7:14
it's what happens in American television.
7:22
Um,
7:26
Test runs were okay maybe because they
7:28
were the only Wi-Fi users.
7:31
Now it's got ten people videoing.
7:35
I don't think they're allowing other
7:37
people to video.
7:50
Late, is legend stream not working?
7:52
It is not working.
7:55
We can check back in so you can
7:58
see.
7:58
Let's see what we have now.
8:02
Same thing.
8:06
We can check in periodically,
8:10
see what's going on with the stream.
8:18
So that's where we're at.
8:24
uh train olive i'm surprised they aren't
8:29
also advertising viagra i know that was
8:35
the only part of the stream that worked
8:37
the peptide advertisement um ten people
8:43
videoing i think he means there's ten
8:45
people trying to stream the event on
8:48
evan's team
8:50
I don't know who Evan is.
8:54
So there it is.
9:02
So, yeah.
9:04
So that's where we sit.
9:05
Last night was crazy because Jamie and
9:08
Carolyn landed in California.
9:11
They got to the event.
9:13
And the reports I was getting are the
9:16
heats are sorted by last name.
9:23
So no matter where you finished in
9:24
quarterfinals,
9:27
you could be in the last heat and
9:29
be three hundred and eightieth in the
9:31
world.
9:32
But because your name starts with
9:36
whatever,
9:37
whichever way out alphabetically they're
9:39
going.
9:42
You could be anywhere.
9:44
which is ridiculous.
9:48
I use Excel every day to sort on
9:51
a different column like quarterfinal
9:54
finish is one click of a button.
10:00
One click of a button.
10:02
So someone like Jamie who is competing to
10:05
get a ticket to the games doesn't even
10:08
have the competition around her because of
10:11
where her last name finishes.
10:16
Now they did not do that for the
10:17
elites and they did not do that for
10:20
thirty five to thirty nine.
10:22
But that is how they sorted forty and
10:25
up.
10:28
That is crazy town banana pants.
10:34
They also did machine demos.
10:38
I don't know if you saw what that
10:39
machine looked like on ten,
10:42
but all of the workouts on the machines,
10:43
the damper will be set at ten.
10:47
So an event that is already power output,
10:51
you're now making everybody do it at the
10:54
highest damper level.
10:57
If that doesn't speak to what they're
10:59
trying to do,
11:01
I don't know what else could.
11:03
Plus the machines were breaking down.
11:07
There is concern that the machines will
11:09
make it through event one.
11:26
I liked how Torian re-ranked on their own
11:28
leaderboard with the same quarterfinal
11:30
scores.
11:32
Pits people against each other with no
11:33
middlers.
11:35
Right.
11:37
I wonder how they'll seed for the first
11:38
event of the games with people qualifying
11:41
from all over the place and online.
11:45
I don't know.
11:48
So I shouldn't pay for the live stream.
11:50
Greetings from Finland.
11:53
Uh, Shelby, Shelby, Shelby, uh,
11:57
you could pay for it.
11:58
And this is what you would get.
12:02
This is the live.
12:05
Oh, oh, oh, oh, no.
12:09
We almost had, we almost had a picture.
12:12
We almost had a picture.
12:19
So
12:24
So there's that.
12:26
What else do we have from there?
12:32
They are water falling event one.
12:35
So heat one will go.
12:38
And then I think it's fourteen minutes in.
12:40
Heat two will go while heat one is
12:43
finishing.
12:45
The machine workout.
12:49
And there are caps on each apparatus.
12:53
So if you cap out on the SkiErg,
12:56
you have to move forward,
12:58
and then they take whatever your distance
13:01
is,
13:02
and they'll add it to your time at
13:04
the end.
13:09
Not making this up.
13:10
That's very local comp-ish shit.
13:14
I don't know where they came up with
13:15
that.
13:19
I don't know.
13:23
Daniel says,
13:24
I feel terrible for the athletes,
13:26
but I love a good circus.
13:28
If we could see the circus,
13:31
if we could see the circus,
13:32
I'd be cool with it.
13:34
Not cool with it.
13:35
I wouldn't be cool with it.
13:39
They're making you use that damper because
13:41
they don't trust the screens.
13:43
Same damper equals they can pretend to
13:45
count revolution strokes and come up with
13:48
reasonable Cal estimates.
13:51
Probably right.
13:59
Makes me think of all the times Carolyn
14:01
Post picks of people leaving road dampers
14:03
on ten and saying there's no need for
14:05
that.
14:15
Tristan asks,
14:15
could they not have gotten Rogue as a
14:17
sponsor?
14:21
I don't know the details on this, Tristan,
14:23
but there is definitely an issue with the
14:28
relationship between Legends and Rogue.
14:33
If you remember to the games last year,
14:35
they used axle bars and Rogue didn't even
14:39
supply the right collar for the axle bar.
14:55
Ken Walter says,
14:56
I hate Excel pivot tables.
14:58
I'm not even asking you to pivot the
14:59
table.
15:01
Sorting on a column in a two-dimensional
15:05
spreadsheet is so, so easy.
15:11
Why they're doing last name is, again,
15:15
bananas.
15:23
um how he wants to talk nfl i
15:26
do too uh lana paid forty dollars canadian
15:30
for no coverage it just gets better and
15:35
better is this where i watch legends well
15:39
i do have some good news we have
15:42
a picture we have a picture
15:52
I don't know if we have sound.
15:55
I don't think we have sound,
15:57
but we have a picture.
16:04
So that's good news.
16:06
Maybe we're going to be back up and
16:07
running.
16:12
I don't want to get dinged for showing
16:14
too much.
16:21
Alito says,
16:21
makes me rethink wanting to qualify for
16:23
the Bob and Joe games.
16:25
Not going to lie.
16:27
I would hope,
16:29
I would hope that the games takes a
16:32
more active approach because it's all
16:35
happening in the same location,
16:38
but that's not a guarantee.
16:44
Jeremy says,
16:45
when does Ashton Kutcher pop out and tell
16:47
us we've all been punked?
16:48
I'm waiting.
16:50
I'm waiting.
16:58
It would have been better just to
16:59
broadcast on YouTube post production.
17:02
At this point, sure.
17:04
At least you get to see something.
17:13
Those stepper skis and bikes are two K
17:17
each.
17:20
Well,
17:20
you got to pay to be able to
17:22
rotate the fan blades.
17:28
Trish has it.
17:29
Data sort.
17:30
There you go.
17:31
Select the column you want to sort on.
17:35
There it is.
17:46
Grace's went to the draft last night.
17:48
It was pretty fun.
17:49
I saw those three hundred thousand people
17:52
out there.
17:54
I am not I am not into squeezing
17:58
into that large of a crowd.
18:04
But it looked awesome.
18:07
And I'm from the area and I'm not
18:09
a Steeler fan, but my wife is.
18:12
And when they played Renegade before their
18:14
pick, that place was electric.
18:18
Electric.
18:27
Ken was spoiled.
18:27
He had administrative assistance for that.
18:30
Come on, dude.
18:32
Got to be self-sufficient these days.
18:37
Master Semi-Final sponsored by Ring
18:39
Doorbell.
18:41
Well, the picture is better than that.
18:43
It actually is a really high-quality
18:45
picture.
18:46
And we are running.
18:49
We've been running for about two minutes.
18:52
So there it is.
18:53
You can see the guys up.
18:55
Now it's a little bit of buffer.
19:00
But we can see some ski rig action.
19:08
So it's up and running.
19:17
Trish says,
19:18
tell me you're broke without telling me
19:19
you're broke.
19:20
It's only thirty dollars.
19:23
I listen.
19:25
I am.
19:25
I can afford the thirty dollars.
19:28
But if I pay my thirty dollars for
19:31
my steak dinner and the steak dinner and
19:33
the plate comes out empty,
19:35
I'm still pissed.
19:40
If I pay him a thirty dollars I
19:42
want to have the steak on the plate.
19:46
So right now we have some we have
19:50
like a New York strip.
19:52
I'm waiting for the ribeye.
19:53
Hopefully this goes buffering.
19:58
But we got a little peek in on
19:59
the women's floor.
20:01
See some women already on the double
20:02
unders.
20:06
I don't know what age group we're in.
20:09
But
20:10
You know,
20:13
if I pay my thirty bucks though, Trish,
20:17
I do not want to do that.
20:21
If I pay me thirty dollars for my
20:22
steak, I want steak on the plate.
20:24
I don't want an empty plate with a
20:26
piece of broccoli.
20:35
Do we think these videos will show up
20:37
for free to view after the fact or
20:40
not?
20:41
I say nah.
20:42
That never happened with Waterpalooza back
20:44
in the day.
20:56
Oh, I have...
21:06
so i just had it on mute so
21:08
it didn't play over the over top you
21:14
all wanted back here it is marco says
21:27
is this the live stream you get for
21:28
thirty bucks i was planning on buying but
21:31
that but that not that coverage i was
21:34
expecting for thirty bucks
21:36
My guess is as they get younger,
21:38
because they started with the older heats,
21:41
as they get younger,
21:43
the coverage will become more fluid and
21:46
they'll probably have some people walking
21:48
around with cameras so you can get some
21:51
more close-up shots.
21:57
So yeah,
21:57
I think this is just what we're getting
21:59
for the older heats.
22:14
uh uh trained olive says that uh hers
22:17
is frozen with no volume i think you
22:20
just need to refresh mine's just buffering
22:22
a little bit but it is up and
22:25
it is running and the volume works
22:40
Daniel said this is getting a turkey
22:42
burger when you ordered a beef burger.
22:45
So, all right.
22:47
Now I'm going to defend them just a
22:48
little bit.
22:50
As long as it's up and running and
22:52
I can see who the people are,
22:54
I don't want to go back to the
22:55
games when they had an iPhone five hanging
22:58
from the roof.
22:59
And that was the coverage we got.
23:02
This, at least I can see,
23:05
I can see the people,
23:07
I can see them doing the workout and,
23:10
And as we get younger,
23:12
it gets to be a little more fluid
23:14
of a broadcast with some walk-around
23:17
cameras.
23:18
I'm cool with it.
23:20
It just has to stay up and running
23:22
and give me the ability to see these
23:25
people.
23:29
Vicky,
23:29
I sent you a screenshot of the Posted
23:31
Ages schedule from IG.
23:32
Yeah, I have all that from Holly.
23:35
I just don't have it open now to
23:36
look at and see.
23:43
So there it is.
23:48
Grace says, Vicky,
23:49
where's the schedule posted?
23:50
So both,
23:51
so Holly posted on her DataWad IG as
23:57
well as Clydesdale Media.
23:59
You can see the full schedule for the
24:01
day.
24:03
In addition,
24:03
Legends put out a schedule as well.
24:11
What do you mean when we get younger?
24:13
I mean,
24:14
as the competition goes on through the
24:16
day,
24:16
the younger athletes are going to take the
24:19
floor.
24:20
They started seventy plus.
24:22
Went sixty five to sixty nine.
24:25
Then went sixty to sixty four.
24:33
I am not Benjamin Button, Jody.
24:35
So me, myself, I am not getting younger.
24:45
so there it is um what i wanted
24:50
i there's a couple things i wanted to
24:51
talk about other than legends and that is
24:55
i got i got some comments yesterday about
24:58
my trt talk with the masters divisions and
25:02
the rampant use of it in no way
25:06
am i saying that trt is a bad
25:07
thing
25:09
If you medically need TRT or you want
25:13
to live a better life and you use
25:15
TRT, I'm cool with that.
25:17
I think that's awesome.
25:19
If it helps you get through life in
25:21
a more meaningful way, use TRT.
25:27
But the minute you step on a competition
25:29
floor is where I have a problem.
25:34
That's the piece I'm talking about.
25:39
And the people that have popped in the
25:41
master's age groups have not popped for
25:44
TRT.
25:45
They have popped for the entire medicine
25:48
cabinet of PEDs.
25:52
So there we go.
25:59
Howie said the stream is fine.
26:00
Yeah, it's now running pretty fluid.
26:05
So we have a pretty good stream right
26:06
now.
26:07
If we get this for a while,
26:09
I'm cool.
26:13
Claire says,
26:13
CrossFit has the Benjamin Button effect.
26:16
It does.
26:17
It does.
26:25
Seema says, I'm ready for TRT.
26:27
Premenopause is kicking my ass.
26:29
And if it helps you with that,
26:31
go for it.
26:32
It is awesome.
26:35
But that also means you can't take the
26:38
floor in a competition.
26:42
It's just the way it is.
26:48
Can we chat about Crash for a second?
26:50
I can't because I don't know about it.
26:54
Jonathan,
26:54
I am so focused on the game season,
26:59
and right now Crash is kind of like
27:01
a side event.
27:03
I'll probably tune into it a little bit
27:04
this weekend,
27:06
but I just can't focus on that right
27:10
now.
27:24
And Vicky says she feels SEMA.
27:30
Thanks for CrossFit.
27:31
I plan to be fitter in a decade
27:34
than I am now.
27:35
That's pretty neat.
27:36
That's really neat.
27:41
I was fitter in my forties and now
27:43
fifties than I was in my thirties.
27:47
And that's pretty awesome.
27:59
Seema says I'm not good enough to compete
28:00
unless it's that damper ten.
28:02
Mason makes me do that all the time.
28:05
Yeah, but.
28:07
Ninety nine percent of us are never going
28:09
to compete.
28:11
And if.
28:13
TRT helps you get through life,
28:15
then it is there is a tool to
28:18
use.
28:20
These are the one percenters that take the
28:22
floor.
28:23
You can't use it.
28:25
It's just part of the rules.
28:32
So that's it.
28:39
Ortega says,
28:39
I would whoop my twenty-year-old self up
28:41
right now.
28:42
My twenty-year-old self couldn't keep up
28:44
with me today.
28:50
Finding a good hormone replacement therapy
28:53
doctor as a woman is really rough.
28:56
We are going through that now with my
28:57
wife.
28:59
Yeah,
28:59
my wife is on the other side of
29:00
that, but that was...
29:02
That was rough.
29:05
I agree.
29:05
Mark getting through that was really hard.
29:18
What I love is Bruce always comes in
29:20
like late in the show and says,
29:22
did I miss anything?
29:24
What do you think?
29:25
We just sit here and talk about nothing.
29:28
Of course you miss stuff.
29:30
Go back and watch.
29:31
That's your penalty.
29:36
The last thing I wanted to bring up
29:39
is I was watching Claire and CJ this
29:42
morning,
29:43
and they brought up Coach L and his
29:53
reaction to Gwen hating it because
29:59
athletes today don't train touch and go.
30:03
They train to be the most efficient.
30:05
They can be through a workout,
30:07
and many times that means singles.
30:11
And I'm paraphrasing at this right now.
30:17
But what blew me away in his reaction
30:21
to that, and I really like Coach L,
30:24
is that
30:27
We used to, or Dave used to,
30:31
find ways not to be predictable,
30:34
to tweak workouts, to adjust workouts,
30:38
so that you could not prepare for exactly
30:42
what you would see on the floor.
30:47
Why are we looking at this?
30:51
The first thing that popped into my head
30:53
when Coach Al said that was,
30:57
You have taken unknown and unknowable out
31:00
of the equation.
31:02
And if you didn't train touch and go,
31:06
that's on you.
31:08
That's on you and your athletes.
31:13
To complain that you hate a workout
31:17
because you didn't prepare correctly is
31:20
totally against what CrossFit was meant to
31:24
be.
31:28
That got me so fired up this morning.
31:31
And I'm glad Claire brought it up.
31:34
CJ kind of like glanced over it,
31:37
but like I was so,
31:39
so upset about that because it used to
31:43
be, I remember Ben Bergeron saying,
31:46
we're trying to figure out what to train
31:47
for.
31:48
And it was like CrossFit tried to take
31:50
the anti-approach to make it so you could
31:54
not prepare for it.
31:57
If you don't remember,
31:58
I think it was two thousand sixteen or
32:00
seventeen, seventeen,
32:01
I think there wasn't a barbell at
32:04
regionals.
32:05
Everything was dumbbell.
32:08
Everything.
32:09
Because people had been preparing for one
32:13
thing.
32:16
And I really think the programming has
32:19
gotten into a rut.
32:21
where people are preparing for the events
32:26
because they think they know what it is.
32:31
But you know what else helps you prepare?
32:34
It's Thirdsy.
32:37
Thirdsy helps you prepare by getting you
32:39
the best sleep and the best recovery you
32:41
can.
32:42
And you can get it for fifteen percent
32:43
off by using Jazzy.
32:48
at checkout or go to thirdsy.com backslash
32:51
jazzy to get yours today for fifteen
32:54
percent off so back to it um just
33:04
the idea of training more touch and go
33:06
makes me sweat
33:08
But shouldn't we be mixing that into our
33:11
training?
33:12
A little bit of this,
33:14
a little bit of that.
33:15
Isn't that what CrossFit is?
33:18
It's kind of like that pot of stew
33:20
that you're throwing this ingredient in
33:22
and that ingredient in and that ingredient
33:25
in.
33:26
And that mix of everything creates this
33:29
awesome stew called CrossFit.
33:33
And if you're taking things out because
33:36
you don't think you're going to see them
33:37
down the road in a competition,
33:40
you're missing the mark.
33:58
They're called benchmarks for a reason.
34:03
And old Dick's in the chat saying,
34:05
Rich has never done touch and go in
34:07
his entire life.
34:08
That is a lie, my friend.
34:10
I've seen Rich go touch and go at
34:12
events.
34:15
Back in the early days,
34:17
he went touch and go a lot.
34:26
Ken Walters,
34:27
I just got two guys at my box
34:28
to order thirdsy last night after they
34:31
were complaining about they can't sleep.
34:32
Thank you so much.
34:34
Hopefully they use the code.
34:36
Got that fifteen percent off.
34:40
Jay Birch, the hopper.
34:42
Yes.
34:43
Go to your level one.
34:45
Learn about the hopper.
34:47
You just pull movements out.
34:49
That's your workout.
34:50
Go for it.
34:51
One of the first workouts at the CrossFit
34:53
Games was a hopper workout where they drew
34:58
movements out of this big barrel,
35:02
and that became the workout.
35:04
Where has that gone?
35:17
Training for the unknown is the U.S.
35:21
Navy SEAL training because if you have to
35:24
train for everything or you could fail the
35:26
mission.
35:28
I think that's why the military backed
35:30
CrossFit because of that.
35:39
Lito says,
35:40
I bet you there are so many people
35:41
at the moment trying Gwen,
35:43
which cannot be said for any other event
35:45
that has recently been programmed.
35:49
I agree with you.
35:53
I think that's going to be different for
35:54
the Magic City workouts because so many of
35:57
them are classic regional and named
36:00
workouts that people are going to try
36:02
those as well.
36:09
Jeremy,
36:09
I got hella athletes that like to game
36:12
their deadlifts and go singles for every
36:14
workout.
36:15
I challenge them often to think more touch
36:17
and go.
36:19
Me personally,
36:20
my first rep of deadlift sucks.
36:24
I finally find the groove on rep two.
36:28
So to do singles of deadlift for me
36:31
is just not smart.
36:35
And why would you want to go from
36:38
a dead stop every rep?
36:43
When you can tap and go,
36:45
maybe get a little bounce?
36:50
I don't know.
36:54
Especially to get the eccentric benefits,
36:56
but also to challenge themselves and mix
36:58
things up.
37:00
Eccentric benefits are so important and
37:03
people don't understand them.
37:06
Eccentric movements make you stronger in
37:10
that movement pattern.
37:12
It builds strength in that movement
37:15
pattern.
37:16
Taking all of them out, you lose that.
37:41
Dex says singles and deadlift is dumb.
37:43
I agree.
37:45
I agree completely.
37:47
Like I said,
37:48
my first rep at deadlift is my worst
37:50
one.
37:55
TFX in two thousand thirteen at a finale
37:57
where they do three out of a legit
37:59
hopper and you did all three with a
38:02
hundred meter run in between.
38:04
It was electric.
38:06
That is exactly what I'm talking about.
38:11
That is what CrossFit was based on.
38:15
For Coach L to come out and say
38:18
we weren't prepared for it.
38:19
That's why I hate it.
38:21
So counterintuitive to what this was built
38:24
on.
38:32
Scott, will you be at Syndicate?
38:33
That is my plan.
38:37
As long as everything stays cool and my
38:40
recovery is done on Monday,
38:42
I can get back to lifting and working
38:44
out.
38:46
And if everything goes well in that
38:47
direction,
38:48
I'm hoping to come down to Syndicate.
38:59
jeremy says this is what professional
39:02
crossfit looks like coach l's mindset
39:08
coach l's a good dude man like i
39:11
really enjoy having conversations with him
39:14
but i that comment was awful and for
39:19
those of you curious the stream has been
39:22
up
39:23
since the last time i pulled it up
39:25
we are running pretty smooth picture's
39:27
pretty clear there's an occasional buffer
39:31
um it keeps switching back from the men
39:34
to the women as you can see here
39:37
there's a little bit of buffer but
39:40
picture's pretty clear
39:52
maybe L was joking.
39:54
He has a great deadpan.
39:55
He wasn't joking because he was,
39:58
he tried to explain his reasoning.
40:05
Dex says he ain't wrong.
40:06
The sport is not the affiliate
40:08
methodology.
40:09
Okay.
40:10
But Dex, you were competing in the teens.
40:16
They tried to bring out things throughout
40:20
the,
40:21
the teens that you could not plan for
40:25
at the regional level and the games level.
40:28
There were always twists and turns and
40:31
caveats to work out to make them
40:34
different.
40:39
And I feel like that has been lost
40:43
in the twenties and
40:56
Jody says, Scott,
40:56
you can work out with me at five
40:58
a.m.
40:59
Would love it.
41:01
That is so early for me, Jody.
41:04
But if once I get back to it,
41:06
I'll try to drop in for a workout
41:09
here and there.
41:10
But man, five a.m.
41:14
is not my circadian rhythm anymore.
41:26
Jeremy says it should be illegal to work
41:28
out at five a.m.
41:30
I don't, I don't disagree.
41:34
That is an insane time.
41:39
David Reed, one hundred percent, Jeremy.
41:48
At the games,
41:49
they get fancy implement-wise,
41:50
individuality.
41:53
Individually,
41:53
they do need some straightforward testing.
41:57
I think that's what shows like Xenon will
41:59
fare well.
42:02
I don't mind some straightforward
42:04
workouts,
42:05
but occasionally throw in a tweak and see
42:09
if people can adapt.
42:12
Adaptability in athleticism is important.
42:18
And I know John Wood took three hours
42:20
to explain that,
42:21
but those things do have some importance
42:27
to the overall test.
42:29
It doesn't need to be the whole test,
42:32
but should be an aspect of the test.
42:43
Jody said you can replay it.
42:44
No worries.
42:45
I was a passport delivery girl.
42:47
It's in my DNA.
42:53
Dex coming back.
42:54
I agree.
42:54
That's why I loved Gwen.
42:56
I just love debating with you, Dex.
43:04
Lito says, speaking of Xenom,
43:06
I got in free through the ballot.
43:07
Looking forward to it.
43:09
I saw that.
43:11
I am so excited for you, Lito,
43:13
and I can't wait to hear how it
43:14
goes.
43:40
John Wood sounds like listening to dial up
43:42
internet load up yeah especially for three
43:46
hours Tristan says people can always do
43:51
some touch and go in a workout if
43:53
they need to to get a W just
43:56
put the barbell at the end
44:03
But I bet you some athletes now start
44:05
doing some touch and go just to get
44:07
the feel for it.
44:21
Paige Rogers says she hasn't swam in a
44:23
couple of years.
44:24
A perfect example of a great workout that
44:26
has probably been abandoned by most
44:29
CrossFit athletes because it won't be
44:31
tested.
44:34
only thing that's banned wayne is open
44:36
water right now and who knows how long
44:39
that'll be and she said in that podcast
44:45
now that she's made the games she does
44:48
need to get back in the pool a
44:49
little bit so she knows she's she might
44:52
see some swimming in a pool at the
44:55
crossfit games
45:09
anyway Tristan said true I had Jacob and
45:12
Caitlin do it yeah gotta touch that touch
45:16
and go now so just to update you
45:21
all they are moving around we got split
45:25
screens now of course it froze as soon
45:29
as I shared it but they are walking
45:31
around with cameras now we got some split
45:34
screens
45:39
So getting a little better coverage as we
45:41
go throughout the day.
45:43
Kudos to everybody there trying to figure
45:46
it out.
45:49
But we do have some coverage now.
46:07
Hexy Lover, hey Scott,
46:08
did you hear about the Ironman swimmer
46:10
that passed away in Texas?
46:12
I did.
46:14
I did.
46:21
Regretfully,
46:22
that happens in Ironmans all the time.
46:28
Triathlons all the time.
46:32
So,
46:35
and they're not going to stop doing that.
46:39
Don't Ironmans average like two to three
46:41
deaths a pro event?
46:44
Regretfully, they do.
46:51
And people in their signups still go
46:54
through the roof.
47:02
It's just like a known risk.
47:08
but we don't need to get it all
47:09
that again today.
47:11
It's the weekend.
47:13
The coverage is up and running.
47:15
So I'm going to let you guys go.
47:17
I'm going to get back to work,
47:20
run some of this coverage at my desk.
47:23
And I don't know what I'm going to
47:24
do Sunday.
47:26
Carolyn and Jamie are going to be at
47:28
Del Mar.
47:30
I don't know.
47:32
They are not going to be able to
47:33
come on Sunday night.
47:35
So I need to find a replacement.
47:38
Maybe I'll go old school and see if
47:41
Dex wants to come on.
47:45
But with that,
47:47
hope you guys have a great rest of
47:48
your day.
47:49
Hope you have a fun time watching Crash
47:53
or Del Mar or whatever this weekend.
47:56
And I'll definitely be back Sunday night
47:58
with somebody.
47:59
We will see you then.
48:01
Have a great weekend.
48:19
Absolutely.
