  And no, Carolyn is not crying.
• 0:06
  She just has an eyelash in her eye.
• 0:08
  But we're going to talk about everything
• 0:09
  that's going on this weekend next on
• 0:12
  Sunday Night CrossFit Talk.
• 0:45
  What is going on, everybody?

  Hit that notifier so you're the first to

• 0:59
  And I think we have a pirate as
• 1:00
  one of our co-hosts tonight.
• 1:01
  I literally can't open my eye right now.
• 1:03
  It's just gonna make me cry.
• 1:05
  Oh my goodness.
• 1:07
  Keep the mic up.
• 1:09
  Bluff it out.
• 1:11
  One of the toughest athletes in the
• 1:13
  CrossFit space.
• 1:14
  Taken out by an eyelash.
• 1:15
  Taken out by an eyelash.
• 1:16
  I think we're almost there.
• 1:26
  So what Carolyn's seeing with that,
• 1:28
  this chat came in really early this
• 1:30
  afternoon from Victor Machado Reyes.
• 1:37
  I don't know.
• 1:39
  If you find something on this,
• 1:40
  please address the last minute changes
• 1:42
  made by LATAM masters in the programming.
• 1:45
  WAD-Five was canceled for some age groups
• 1:47
  a few hours prior to the start.
• 1:49
  So I'm trying to figure out the details.
• 1:53
  Holly,
• 1:53
  our crack stats research and information
• 1:57
  person,
• 1:58
  has been working on this all weekend.
• 2:01
  She has some details.
• 2:03
  But it's really sketchy at this moment
• 2:05
  what actually went on down there this
• 2:10
  weekend.
• 2:13
  So with that, wow.
• 2:17
  I'm just going to take Carolyn out so
• 2:18
  she's good.
• 2:21
  there's a language barrier there are posts
• 2:23
  being made in both in couple languages
• 2:26
  she's researching it we're trying to
• 2:28
  figure it out but it seems like at
• 2:30
  least one event was cancelled after the
• 2:33
  start or just prior to the start of
• 2:35
  the event and then they were promised if
• 2:38
  they made a certain level they would get
• 2:41
  to do the last event that line changed
• 2:45
  part way through the competition
• 2:49
  There are very upset masters athletes who
• 2:51
  paid a lot of money to travel to
• 2:53
  South America and are now doing two less
• 2:56
  workouts than they intended on doing.
• 3:00
  So we're trying to figure it out.
• 3:03
  It's bizarre to me that all of this
• 3:08
  is happening and they still in the younger
• 3:11
  divisions give,
• 3:12
  get to give three tickets to the CrossFit
• 3:14
  games.
• 3:16
  Yeah.
• 3:17
  Well,
• 3:19
  I don't think it matters.
• 3:20
  I mean,
• 3:23
  I was worried about this one from the
• 3:24
  get-go.
• 3:25
  I know I've expressed my concerns to you.
• 3:27
  I didn't think... I mean, this...
• 3:32
  It's never even gone well for the elites
• 3:33
  in the past.
• 3:36
  Arguably, that and Asia,
• 3:39
  we've talked about it.
• 3:40
  I appreciate that they opened it up
• 3:43
  geographically because in the past,
• 3:45
  there's athletes that are irrelevant at
• 3:48
  the Games.
• 3:48
  So,
• 3:51
  To give these locations, these spots,
• 3:53
  is not a great idea.
• 3:55
  And I don't think they've had, I mean,
• 3:58
  this goes back to the Seth spin
• 4:00
  conversation with who should be running
• 4:02
  comps.
• 4:02
  I mean, is there any vetting process?
• 4:04
  Because, like, this isn't going well.
• 4:07
  And if Boz is there, how, like,
• 4:08
  what is happening?
• 4:09
  Like, how was this stuff not known?
• 4:12
  How do you have seven events on schedule,
• 4:14
  get down to six,
• 4:15
  and then maybe not even do five?
• 4:18
  I mean, we've seen it happen.
• 4:20
  We had it happen at Legends.
• 4:21
  There was supposed to be six and we
• 4:23
  did five.
• 4:25
  It's just not good.
• 4:27
  And it becomes a pay-to-play type
• 4:29
  situation,
• 4:30
  which I don't think is the way to
• 4:32
  proceed with Masters.
• 4:36
  That's just like who was willing to fly
• 4:38
  to Latin America to earn a spot at
• 4:40
  this point.
• 4:41
  Yeah, I mean,
• 4:43
  I looked at the leaderboard and
• 4:45
  I actually,
• 4:46
  I thought there were a lot of bigger
• 4:49
  names from the master space, not,
• 4:53
  not throughout the leaderboards,
• 4:55
  but there were some pretty big names who
• 4:58
  were in a qualifying spot.
• 4:59
  Last I looked, I saw Ryan rec.
• 5:01
  He made it.
• 5:02
  He might be the only one that I
• 5:04
  like.
• 5:04
  Okay.
• 5:04
  Okay.
• 5:07
  Um,
• 5:07
  there were a couple more like peppered in
• 5:09
  there throughout some of the divisions.
• 5:12
  Um,
• 5:14
  that I thought were legit athletes that
• 5:17
  should have a ticket to the,
• 5:18
  the games that makes sense.
• 5:20
  Let's just say that.
• 5:21
  Okay.
• 5:21
  Should is probably the wrong word to use,
• 5:24
  but are,
• 5:26
  have been there in the past and it
• 5:29
  makes sense.
• 5:32
  Okay.
• 5:32
  Uh, Shannon brings up Arthur Wolf.
• 5:35
  Yeah.
• 5:35
  I mean, there's, again,
• 5:37
  they were sprinkled throughout,
• 5:38
  but there was a lot of names I'd
• 5:39
  never even heard of.
• 5:40
  Right.
• 5:42
  So there's going to be several people
• 5:44
  there that you're just like, I mean,
• 5:47
  I don't know.
• 5:48
  Will they come in and not be last?
• 5:50
  Very possibly.
• 5:53
  But I just I just don't this this
• 5:56
  for for Masters qualifying.
• 6:00
  think the whole semi-final thing needs to
• 6:04
  be looked at in all divisions not just
• 6:07
  masters but elite and everything and we've
• 6:10
  talked about that a few times but and
• 6:13
  we'll probably get into it a little bit
• 6:16
  if Carolyn can see at some point during
• 6:18
  the show just I don't know what it
• 6:21
  is it's like it feels like my eye
• 6:22
  is getting scratched every time I blink so
• 6:25
  like I can't find the eyelash in there
• 6:27
  and I don't know if it like a
• 6:27
  nail went in there
• 6:29
  I don't know.
• 6:30
  I can't see anything.
• 6:32
  You got rope fibers?
• 6:36
  It's scratching me every blink.
• 6:39
  Still, so I'm just trying to.
• 6:41
  Well, speaking of the weekend,
• 6:44
  it was a wild weekend of sports.
• 6:47
  If you watch,
• 6:48
  if you're a sports head like me,
• 6:51
  I don't even watch the NBA generally.
• 6:53
  I watched the entire NBA finals this year.
• 6:55
  Really?
• 6:56
  I did.
• 6:57
  Wow.
• 6:58
  Yeah, it's a weird thing for me.
• 7:03
  Jalen Brunson, Mikael Bridges,
• 7:05
  and Josh Hart were all Villanova players.
• 7:10
  I rooted for them when they won the
• 7:11
  national championship at Villanova.
• 7:14
  And I picked them to win in my
• 7:16
  March Madness poll at work,
• 7:18
  and I won eight hundred dollars because of
• 7:20
  them.
• 7:22
  So because of that,
• 7:24
  I was rooting for them in the NBA
• 7:26
  finals.
• 7:27
  I know it's a weird thing.
• 7:29
  six degrees of kevin bacon but and jalen
• 7:33
  brunson's so easy to root for compared to
• 7:37
  some of the other stuff that goes on
• 7:39
  in the nba so i was really pumped
• 7:41
  and the knicks won for the first time
• 7:43
  in like fifty years so that was a
• 7:49
  it was a fun watch every game came
• 7:51
  down to the last second
• 7:56
  Shanna,
• 7:57
  irrigate the eye with saline if you can,
• 7:59
  clean water if you have it,
• 8:01
  or any non-medicated eye drop.
• 8:03
  I'm calling you out on that win.
• 8:10
  That was years ago.
• 8:11
  It's the statute of limitations.
• 8:13
  It's expired.
• 8:14
  I'll be right back.
• 8:15
  Okay.
• 8:29
  um so there you go ken but anyway
• 8:33
  i watched that whole thing this weekend
• 8:36
  and i've never sat down i probably have
• 8:40
  since the mid-eighties i've not sat down
• 8:41
  and watched the nba that much yeah i'm
• 8:45
  just not really a fan of the nba
• 8:46
  i like college basketball but and then um
• 8:53
  my mom came in so we uh
• 8:58
  We did a lot of stuff with her.
• 9:01
  And then I tried to compress.
• 9:04
  Just because.
• 9:07
  Just because.
• 9:08
  I mean,
• 9:08
  my nephew lives here too with a brand
• 9:10
  new daughter.
• 9:12
  Nine months old.
• 9:13
  She wanted to see her great grandbaby.
• 9:18
  And so she came in for that probably
• 9:20
  first and foremost.
• 9:22
  But she gets to see Julie and I
• 9:23
  as well.
• 9:24
  But Julie and I are working on all
• 9:25
  these home projects.
• 9:27
  And then we tried to compress everything
• 9:29
  into a much smaller window.
• 9:32
  And I'm whooped.
• 9:34
  I'm so ready for bed tonight.
• 9:37
  You still got to get that sign hung.
• 9:41
  I know that was one of the things
• 9:42
  I had on my list for the weekend.
• 9:45
  And, um, and I, it just didn't happen.
• 9:47
  It got,
• 9:48
  it was so off to do it sometime
• 9:50
  this week, but Julie may actually,
• 9:53
  she's actually pondering going to
• 9:54
  Pennsylvania tomorrow.
• 9:56
  Cause her,
• 9:57
  her mom fell and she just went through
• 10:02
  radiation for.
• 10:06
  a tumor and all that stuff.
• 10:09
  And so she just,
• 10:11
  I think wants to be back and help
• 10:13
  take care of her at least for a
• 10:15
  week.
• 10:15
  And her office will let her work from
• 10:17
  Pennsylvania for a week.
• 10:23
  So we've got a lot going on,
• 10:25
  but cause that sign is a two person
• 10:29
  job, just so you know.
• 10:30
  It's a large sign.
• 10:35
  We have shirts with the new logo we
• 10:37
  can wear to the games.
• 10:40
  I'm working on something, Ken.
• 10:44
  I should know more in the next couple
• 10:45
  days.
• 10:51
  Shanna, whoop to hot, hot,
• 10:52
  hot here and getting ready for session
• 10:54
  two.
• 10:56
  Yeah, it's been hot here for a week.
• 10:58
  Today, we got torrential downpour.
• 11:01
  Yeah, we got rain on, too,
• 11:02
  and it dropped quite a bit.
• 11:04
  I mean, twenty degrees or so.
• 11:06
  It's not going to be very warm this
• 11:07
  week.
• 11:08
  Seventy, maybe.
• 11:10
  Sixty-five.
• 11:11
  Yeah,
• 11:11
  so I should be able to get a
• 11:12
  lot of dirt move this weekend,
• 11:14
  or this week, in those lower temperatures.
• 11:16
  Yeah.
• 11:18
  So, looking forward to that.
• 11:20
  You do anything fun this weekend?
• 11:23
  Uh, no.
• 11:25
  I went to Portland,
• 11:27
  which is not very far away, thirty,
• 11:28
  forty minutes away,
• 11:31
  and watched my nephew play baseball.
• 11:33
  They lost.
• 11:36
  I just went to the gym,
• 11:38
  caught up on some stuff, caught up on,
• 11:42
  watched all of eighteen eighty three.
• 11:45
  I've not.
• 11:46
  That's one Taylor shared and I haven't
• 11:47
  watched.
• 11:48
  Did you watch Nineteen Twenty-Three?
• 11:50
  Nope.
• 11:51
  Oh, okay.
• 11:51
  We're starting that.
• 11:53
  We finished Eighteen Eighty-Three,
• 11:55
  starting Nineteen Twenty-Three.
• 11:57
  And I haven't watched Episode Six of Gun
• 12:00
  Ranch, so.
• 12:00
  I have.
• 12:02
  I've watched that.
• 12:05
  But Five was excellent.
• 12:07
  Yeah.
• 12:09
  This one wasn't very action-packed.
• 12:11
  Okay.
• 12:12
  But it's one of those, like,
• 12:14
  has to happen to shift the tide.
• 12:16
  Yep.
• 12:19
  Yeah, eighty three was good.
• 12:21
  So I started it twice.
• 12:23
  OK.
• 12:23
  And I don't know what keeps interrupting
• 12:25
  us,
• 12:25
  but we just never we never get into
• 12:28
  it.
• 12:34
  So Kipping is asking, how did Carolyn do?
• 12:38
  I don't even know if she did it.
• 12:40
  I think she did.
• 12:40
  She she was she had the post with
• 12:43
  her doing the jump rope and the wobble
• 12:45
  one.
• 12:46
  I think she did them.
• 12:48
  I did them.
• 12:48
  Yeah.
• 12:49
  Okay.
• 12:51
  She took the time to find judges.
• 12:52
  So she did them.
• 12:54
  Yeah.
• 12:54
  I got someone,
• 12:55
  we had a few people from last year
• 12:57
  that still had their certification.
• 12:59
  And then I got one more person to
• 13:01
  do it just because people were busy this
• 13:03
  weekend.
• 13:04
  Yeah.
• 13:06
  I did them.
• 13:06
  Not because I think I'll qualify.
• 13:08
  Just throw,
• 13:10
  got to throw a wrench in that leaderboard.
• 13:12
  I got to mess up some stuff.
• 13:13
  At least in one workout.
• 13:14
  Yeah.
• 13:15
  That deadlift one should be good for you.
• 13:18
  Yeah, that one's good.
• 13:21
  That's about it.
• 13:22
  I just...
• 13:25
  So I guess we'll dive into that.
• 13:26
  That one's very good.
• 13:26
  The double under is very, very bad.
• 13:29
  See, I like that one.
• 13:30
  It was very bad.
• 13:31
  Yeah, I like the wall ball one.
• 13:36
  So I think when you're looking at the
• 13:37
  workouts that came out and you're thinking
• 13:39
  of the people in your head who could
• 13:41
  do them,
• 13:43
  a lot of that's for a lot of
• 13:44
  people there's a lot of oh they'll be
• 13:46
  really good at that but not so good
• 13:48
  at this absolutely so in that rep in
• 13:52
  that because i'm not into like the
• 13:54
  programming details that you two are but
• 13:57
  for me when i'm thinking that way that
• 13:59
  means it's got to be a pretty decent
• 14:01
  test if you everybody you can think of
• 14:06
  has some good and some bad
• 14:11
  But that's just my layman's look at it.
• 14:13
  Yeah.
• 14:14
  No,
• 14:14
  that's a good way to look at it.
• 14:21
  So I still hate the fact that the
• 14:26
  most dramatic weekend in CrossFit is
• 14:30
  unseen.
• 14:31
  Yeah.
• 14:33
  The only thing we get to see is
• 14:35
  Jacob Marlowe or Hiller's kind of post-
• 14:41
  talks with people who were doing it but
• 14:44
  you're still not really even seeing but it
• 14:47
  gave me this idea why couldn't you either
• 14:53
  a have everybody do it and have that
• 14:58
  the top people in the sport have a
• 15:01
  film it they have to film it anyway
• 15:03
  right yep and then put it together like
• 15:06
  rogue had the screen with ten people on
• 15:09
  the screen and you see it after the
• 15:12
  fact and you don't release the leaderboard
• 15:16
  until each competition is done or b how
• 15:22
  you have to do workouts one and two
• 15:25
  on friday
• 15:28
  You post-produce that.
• 15:29
  I love it.
• 15:29
  That part of the leaderboard's off.
• 15:31
  Yep.
• 15:31
  Three and four.
• 15:33
  Post-produce that.
• 15:34
  That part of the leaderboard's out.
• 15:36
  And then five.
• 15:37
  I love it.
• 15:37
  That eliminates most of the redos,
• 15:43
  and it forces an order, pretty much.
• 15:46
  And I think that's the proper way to
• 15:48
  test.
• 15:50
  There's too much gaming of these online
• 15:53
  things that, yeah, I would prefer...
• 15:57
  like a twenty four hour window, submit,
• 16:00
  throw those out.
• 16:01
  Yep.
• 16:02
  Keep doing that.
• 16:04
  And because if you do it in person,
• 16:05
  you don't get to pick the order.
• 16:07
  Exactly.
• 16:09
  Right.
• 16:09
  And then at least it's and use the
• 16:12
  videos that are being submitted and just
• 16:13
  put them in ten boxes.
• 16:16
  Yep.
• 16:16
  Let them go.
• 16:19
  You know,
• 16:19
  the top ten times because they did it
• 16:22
  during the online semis of twenty twenty
• 16:25
  one and
• 16:27
  Um,
• 16:27
  cause I remember watching some of the top
• 16:31
  scores.
• 16:31
  I don't know if it was ten was
• 16:32
  like five or six of them within like
• 16:35
  the worldwide that they would show like
• 16:36
  for each workout.
• 16:38
  And I thought that was cool.
• 16:40
  I would even take top four, six,
• 16:42
  something that is even for the thing,
• 16:44
  right?
• 16:44
  Yeah.
• 16:45
  Because you know the top times.
• 16:48
  And then they can have the scores.
• 16:49
  They did it like you could see how
• 16:52
  many ahead each person was.
• 16:55
  They did it before.
• 16:57
  And it was basically the same system that
• 16:58
  Rogue had done the year prior in twenty
• 17:00
  twenty.
• 17:02
  And that would be cool.
• 17:03
  Because you control the leaderboard.
• 17:05
  You don't release it till you release the
• 17:07
  videos.
• 17:08
  Then when the videos are out,
• 17:09
  then you release the leaderboard if you
• 17:11
  want to see everything down below that.
• 17:15
  And it's a spectacle then.
• 17:16
  Everybody tunes in to see the top six.
• 17:20
  And then immediately after,
• 17:21
  they're going to your website to see the
• 17:24
  leaderboard.
• 17:27
  Yep.
• 17:31
  instead of just blind all weekend long and
• 17:34
  hope people are doing well.
• 17:35
  And Ooh,
• 17:36
  I got an Instagram clip here and Jacob
• 17:39
  Marley, Jacob Marley,
• 17:41
  Jacob Marlo is willing to do it live
• 17:44
  for everybody.
• 17:45
  So you get to see that.
• 17:48
  It's just a mess.
• 17:50
  Cause she's not doing it for anything but
• 17:51
  money.
• 17:54
  Or Ben Smith,
• 17:55
  just because he's old and he wants to
• 17:57
  show he still got it.
• 18:01
  Or you get a random James Sprague post,
• 18:04
  one of them,
• 18:05
  to show what he can do on it.
• 18:07
  Yeah, I mean,
• 18:08
  you know you knock one out of the
• 18:09
  park and you haven't.
• 18:11
  Twelve-thirty, wow.
• 18:13
  Is that the double underhand sandwalk wall
• 18:15
  ball one?
• 18:17
  Yeah.
• 18:18
  Okay.
• 18:19
  That's crazy, though.
• 18:23
  That's crazy.
• 18:24
  Yeah.
• 18:24
  Yeah.
• 18:27
  So now that we've solved the semifinal
• 18:31
  online.
• 18:32
  Figured it out.
• 18:33
  Take notes.
• 18:35
  So, Carolyn, you've done the workouts.
• 18:39
  I know you're not going to reveal how
• 18:40
  it went,
• 18:40
  but like the workouts as a whole,
• 18:44
  how do you think that the test was?
• 18:50
  I think the test was fine.
• 18:51
  I think it was a fair test.
• 18:53
  About what I expected.
• 18:56
  I thought that we'd see some sort of
• 18:57
  GHD or Tostobar in there,
• 18:58
  like some sort of core movement that was
• 19:02
  more involved.
• 19:08
  A lot of short workouts, I guess.
• 19:11
  Like if you look at the time of...
• 19:15
  What's that?
• 19:16
  I said no Tostobar at all.
• 19:18
  What'd you say?
• 19:21
  Carolyn's breaking up.
• 19:22
  I can't hear what you're saying.
• 19:23
  Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 19:26
  Your internet's breaking up a little bit.
• 19:29
  Yeah, I mean, you have... I'm breaking up?
• 19:32
  Okay, sorry.
• 19:36
  Yeah, I think it was fine.
• 19:37
  Like, there's a lot of rope climbs, like,
• 19:42
  twenty-one.
• 19:46
  It's the same snatch weight that we did
• 19:48
  last year.
• 19:49
  I was expecting a clean and jerk this
• 19:50
  year.
• 19:51
  versus like the same type of athletes that
• 19:55
  are going to do well from the Isabel
• 19:56
  from last year.
• 19:58
  Um,
• 20:00
  burpee one was like probably the more like
• 20:04
  high heart rate one still had a moderate
• 20:06
  heavy deadlift for some people.
• 20:10
  Um, that was okay.
• 20:16
  Um,
• 20:18
  I still like a test that still has
• 20:21
  something that's light and go.
• 20:24
  Not everything needs to be moderate,
• 20:27
  heavy, or high skill.
• 20:29
  Because then we're just putting all the
• 20:32
  emphasis on this at this stage.
• 20:33
  Yeah,
• 20:34
  we've done all the other stuff earlier,
• 20:36
  but we still started at zero.
• 20:39
  So now the only emphasis is on these
• 20:43
  five tests.
• 20:46
  Which are very
• 20:49
  yeah like you have a heavy wall ball
• 20:51
  to a high target for the females a
• 20:53
  moderate heavy-ish barbell and two
• 20:57
  workouts a lot of rope yeah i don't
• 21:00
  know i think it's okay though so as
• 21:03
  expected like they always you get to
• 21:05
  semifinals and this is what they do all
• 21:06
  the time for the most part so
• 21:10
  just a side note and just because it
• 21:14
  i want to show you how much you
• 21:15
  guys have affected my thought process so
• 21:18
  i'm watching hiller's video today about
• 21:21
  twenty-year-old dallin could beat twenty
• 21:23
  fourteen rich
• 21:26
  And the example he used was that Matt
• 21:30
  Torres was watching Rich do GHD sit-ups
• 21:33
  and said, too slow, too slow, too slow.
• 21:37
  And I'm thinking, well,
• 21:38
  that's because Rich actually extended his
• 21:40
  hips all the way down and touched where
• 21:43
  all the athletes today do that short frog
• 21:46
  GHD.
• 21:47
  Mm-hmm.
• 21:49
  And so I just wanted to show you
• 21:50
  what effect you have had on me now.
• 21:54
  I had the exact same thought when they
• 21:56
  showed the GHG.
• 21:57
  I'm like, oh, look,
• 21:59
  his butt is actually pretty far down on
• 22:01
  the GHG.
• 22:03
  Yeah.
• 22:04
  Fergie has question of the week for Caro.
• 22:07
  What feels better,
• 22:08
  going wire to wire winning the Masters
• 22:10
  games or beating Tia Toomey in an event
• 22:12
  at the games?
• 22:15
  Wire to wire.
• 22:18
  Wow.
• 22:19
  I thought that would be tougher than that
• 22:21
  quick answer.
• 22:24
  I think winning the Masters games is a
• 22:26
  tough thing to do.
• 22:27
  And it's like the early divisions.
• 22:33
  I think in all my career at the
• 22:35
  games,
• 22:35
  I think I only beat Tia maybe once
• 22:37
  on a sprint event.
• 22:38
  I'm trying to think of other times.
• 22:41
  I think that's about it.
• 22:44
  She has me in everything else.
• 22:47
  So there's a debate in the chat right
• 22:48
  now about Alex Kazan doing it for the
• 22:50
  money.
• 22:51
  And should she be allowed to do it
• 22:54
  just for the money,
• 22:55
  even though she's already qualified?
• 22:56
  I will say,
• 22:58
  I get Tessa's point a little bit.
• 23:00
  I think the way she's doing it,
• 23:03
  I can respect.
• 23:05
  She's doing it,
• 23:06
  putting her time out there.
• 23:07
  It's giving people a score to chase,
• 23:10
  which...
• 23:11
  Changes things for sure.
• 23:12
  So if you're going to do it,
• 23:14
  I'd say this is the way to do
• 23:15
  it.
• 23:16
  Do them.
• 23:16
  Put your video out there.
• 23:17
  Let people see the time to beat.
• 23:19
  They know it's possible.
• 23:21
  And if they can't beat you,
• 23:21
  they can't beat you.
• 23:23
  And then I guess she deserves it.
• 23:25
  I can't stand it.
• 23:26
  I mean, we talked about it before,
• 23:27
  like athletes that are entering semifinals
• 23:30
  that are ineligible for...
• 23:33
  Unless she gets first overall on every
• 23:35
  single event,
• 23:37
  her scores will affect the leaderboard to
• 23:39
  some extent of people's qualifying spots.
• 23:41
  She could push someone back one point but
• 23:43
  not affecting someone.
• 23:44
  She can middle the right people.
• 23:49
  But, I mean, within the rules,
• 23:51
  it's within the rules.
• 23:51
  And she has a great shot of winning...
• 23:54
  you know, a decent amount of money.
• 23:55
  So like, I don't falter for it.
• 23:58
  Like I,
• 23:58
  I feel like I'd be doing the same
• 24:00
  thing.
• 24:02
  Like if the masters online semifinals had
• 24:04
  money for like placings,
• 24:05
  I would have probably done it.
• 24:07
  Even though I had already gotten my spot,
• 24:08
  like you can't falter.
• 24:11
  Yeah.
• 24:11
  The rules change though.
• 24:12
  Like syndicate,
• 24:14
  you weren't allowed this year to go if
• 24:15
  you had already qualified.
• 24:16
  Cause they didn't want to deal with that
• 24:17
  and mess that up here.
• 24:18
  Like it,
• 24:19
  it is a little frustrating and confusing
• 24:21
  for people.
• 24:22
  Which one can I do?
• 24:25
  I hate it.
• 24:26
  It is so counter to everything else
• 24:29
  athletic or every other sport.
• 24:33
  You have your path to the championship.
• 24:35
  You don't get to bounce around and do
• 24:37
  multiple paths depending on what you want.
• 24:42
  But it's just like everything else we've
• 24:44
  said this year.
• 24:45
  I can't fault the athlete for taking
• 24:47
  advantage of the rules that are there.
• 24:49
  And she asked.
• 24:50
  No, I don't have it.
• 24:52
  I'm not blaming Alex for it.
• 24:53
  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 24:55
  No, not at all.
• 24:55
  I just hate it that it's available.
• 24:59
  I just don't like that it's going to
• 25:00
  affect,
• 25:00
  because it's going to be tight at the
• 25:02
  top.
• 25:02
  Okay,
• 25:03
  so if she wins and they pay her
• 25:05
  and then they pull her off the
• 25:06
  leaderboard, would that work for you?
• 25:10
  But that's not going to happen either.
• 25:13
  Unfortunately.
• 25:16
  We've been bitching about that for five
• 25:17
  years.
• 25:18
  She's going to middle someone in effect in
• 25:20
  multiple workouts.
• 25:21
  Unless she gets first, of course,
• 25:23
  which she could.
• 25:24
  I don't know how many of them,
• 25:25
  but I don't see her winning all five
• 25:28
  of them.
• 25:29
  She is going to affect, to some extent,
• 25:31
  some people's scores.
• 25:35
  I don't love it,
• 25:36
  but I also get it.
• 25:37
  I fully get it.
• 25:38
  These are great workouts for her,
• 25:40
  so why not?
• 25:41
  Yeah.
• 25:42
  She can win money, like do it.
• 25:47
  Again, I do not fault Alex at all.
• 25:50
  It's in the rules.
• 25:51
  She can do it.
• 25:52
  Just like we've said with other things
• 25:54
  this season,
• 25:55
  I don't fault the athlete for doing six
• 25:57
  semifinals because it's in the rules,
• 26:01
  but I hate it.
• 26:01
  I think it's dumb and it shouldn't be
• 26:03
  in the rules.
• 26:04
  Right.
• 26:05
  But I think it'll make CrossFit think
• 26:07
  about the rules,
• 26:07
  hopefully to adjust because they probably
• 26:09
  didn't even think that someone would do
• 26:10
  that.
• 26:12
  Oh, I don't know about that, man.
• 26:14
  This stuff has been,
• 26:15
  we've talked about this year after year.
• 26:17
  Well, how has, did anyone do that?
• 26:19
  I guess last year was in the middle
• 26:20
  and people hadn't qualified yet, but,
• 26:22
  or at the beginning.
• 26:26
  Yeah, I guess we haven't,
• 26:26
  they haven't had the,
• 26:28
  this is the first year of this,
• 26:29
  where this is at the end.
• 26:31
  They didn't, but we, we did talk about.
• 26:35
  letting people go to semis.
• 26:37
  And,
• 26:37
  and a lot of people complained about that.
• 26:39
  And only syndicate is the only one that,
• 26:42
  and they took it upon themselves.
• 26:43
  Like the fact that CrossFit didn't say
• 26:45
  step in and say, Hey,
• 26:45
  once you've qualified your path stops,
• 26:50
  like stop messing things up.
• 26:54
  They saw it last year.
• 26:54
  So they could have stepped in and
• 26:56
  corrected it this year.
• 26:59
  It just, it makes no sense to me,
• 27:02
  but okay.
• 27:04
  Um,
• 27:08
  I'm sick of complaining about issues and
• 27:09
  trying to be less whiny,
• 27:10
  but I feel like there are a lot
• 27:12
  of issues.
• 27:13
  I have that same issue.
• 27:14
  I have that same feeling.
• 27:15
  I don't want to bitch anymore.
• 27:17
  Same.
• 27:20
  I'd rather come in here and be happy
• 27:23
  for athletes and show the great feats that
• 27:27
  are being done.
• 27:28
  But one, we can't see them this weekend,
• 27:30
  so we don't know what they are.
• 27:32
  And two, there are a lot of issues.
• 27:44
  I totally disagree, Max.
• 27:48
  We don't need more data points on this.
• 27:51
  And if she middles someone,
• 27:54
  she is really just highlighting the
• 27:56
  difference between those two people's
• 27:57
  scores.
• 27:58
  But she's affecting the scores differently
• 28:01
  depending on the event.
• 28:03
  Of the five events,
• 28:04
  she is affecting the leaderboard
• 28:06
  differently in each event,
• 28:07
  depending on that athlete's strengths or
• 28:10
  weaknesses.
• 28:11
  So it's then making a bias
• 28:14
  to one or the other.
• 28:24
  So, there's that.
• 28:28
  I wanted to go a little bit into
• 28:29
  Hiller's video.
• 28:30
  Did you guys watch those this weekend?
• 28:33
  I was waiting for one today.
• 28:34
  Was there one today?
• 28:34
  Did I just miss it?
• 28:35
  Just the Dallin one.
• 28:36
  Yeah,
• 28:39
  I almost saw the day one and day
• 28:40
  two.
• 28:41
  Yeah, I was hoping he'd have one today.
• 28:45
  i won one first of all really great
• 28:48
  job and apparently if you get shocked by
• 28:51
  a dog collar you can get them to
• 28:53
  say anything that and be open and honest
• 28:57
  about everything including poop pee and
• 29:00
  everything else right but oh my gosh like
• 29:06
  i just want alexis raptus to be healthy
• 29:12
  I wanted that whole six or the whole
• 29:14
  ice pack thing after.
• 29:16
  Oh man, I want that treatment.
• 29:19
  Cause like I finished workouts and I was
• 29:21
  done like overheated and all.
• 29:23
  And I feel like, you know,
• 29:25
  just all over and I'm like, damn,
• 29:28
  I need this,
• 29:28
  this crew to come and just put a
• 29:30
  bunch of ice packs on me.
• 29:32
  But there was a lot of, uh, TMI.
• 29:36
  She doesn't have quite the pit crew.
• 29:39
  Well, and then their pit crew is busy.
• 29:45
  When I looked at it and I looked
• 29:47
  at their pit crew and everything that's
• 29:49
  involved in the background of like every
• 29:51
  workout, like finishing a workout,
• 29:52
  having all these people that like
• 29:54
  massaging you after like a snatch work.
• 29:56
  I'm like, I don't have anything here.
• 29:58
  I have two people in the whole gym,
• 30:01
  which are both of my judges and I'm
• 30:02
  alone.
• 30:04
  And I'm just doing it by myself.
• 30:06
  Like no pit crew, no,
• 30:08
  no food that's like given to me after
• 30:10
  like, there's just, it just,
• 30:12
  you just realize how different your
• 30:16
  environment is and competitive season than
• 30:20
  other people's.
• 30:22
  It's crazy.
• 30:25
  I, um,
• 30:26
  and I've been to Jamie's gym during those
• 30:30
  sessions and,
• 30:32
  jamie may have the pit crew but she
• 30:33
  doesn't she's such a control freak that
• 30:36
  she doesn't let anybody help her with this
• 30:39
  stuff i let aaron nobody else reads i
• 30:44
  do aaron's my guy aaron and i get
• 30:49
  fought with on every item every topic
• 30:52
  every subject during those things
• 30:55
  Yeah, I'm learning that I need to just,
• 30:58
  like, if he is available,
• 31:00
  just let him do his whole thing.
• 31:04
  It's hard.
• 31:05
  Sometimes I'm like,
• 31:07
  you're taking too long.
• 31:08
  But I should just, like,
• 31:12
  not stress about it and try to, like,
• 31:14
  relax and let him handle it.
• 31:17
  is hard i am very carolyn it is
• 31:19
  such an issue like she has the clock
• 31:23
  on her app and she has the clock
• 31:25
  in the gym and they're off by five
• 31:27
  seconds and jamie is so worried that it's
• 31:29
  going to be off she hits the clicker
• 31:32
  herself so i've in the last like
• 31:37
  But you were that way.
• 31:39
  Oh yeah.
• 31:40
  I was really bad about that,
• 31:41
  but it's gotten so bad that like I've
• 31:43
  stopped.
• 31:44
  So I won't even run the gym clock
• 31:46
  or I'll run it.
• 31:47
  It'll be running.
• 31:48
  It'll be like on a thirty minute clock
• 31:49
  and I'll just try to and I'll just
• 31:50
  try to start if if I care to
• 31:53
  see a clock,
• 31:54
  like I'll try to start at minute five
• 31:56
  or something.
• 31:57
  Yeah.
• 31:58
  so that I can kind of have an
• 31:59
  idea of pacing.
• 32:00
  But like,
• 32:00
  I've stopped doing that because what has
• 32:02
  continuously happened when we try to do
• 32:04
  that is I'm off and then I go
• 32:05
  rewatch my video and I started either a
• 32:08
  minute,
• 32:08
  either a second early or a second late
• 32:10
  or two seconds late.
• 32:12
  And I'm like, well,
• 32:12
  that's just wasted time.
• 32:16
  Because you can't tell,
• 32:17
  you can't tell the clock,
• 32:19
  the people watching the video after, hey,
• 32:20
  I started two seconds late because I was
• 32:22
  using this clock over here that isn't in
• 32:23
  my video.
• 32:24
  So my time was really nineteen thirty
• 32:26
  seven.
• 32:27
  But I know it says nineteen thirty nine
• 32:28
  on my clock.
• 32:28
  But if you look at the beginning,
• 32:29
  I didn't start till second two.
• 32:31
  Like you can't make those explanations and
• 32:33
  in can't post produce.
• 32:35
  You can't be like, here, look.
• 32:38
  So I've I've kind of stopped syncing the
• 32:41
  clocks and I just you I like make
• 32:44
  someone stand at the clock.
• 32:45
  behind the camera and count it down and
• 32:49
  yell at me or it like,
• 32:50
  if I don't have a running clock,
• 32:51
  they just have to stand there and watch
• 32:52
  the phone phone and tell,
• 32:54
  and that way someone's watching and make
• 32:56
  sure the camera is running the whole time.
• 33:00
  Yeah.
• 33:00
  It's, it's so funny.
• 33:01
  Cause when I came up and did the
• 33:02
  documentary with you,
• 33:04
  I was doing the documentary with Rudy here
• 33:07
  and Rudy has a full pit crew.
• 33:09
  That man doesn't touch a thing.
• 33:12
  when he's working out.
• 33:13
  Like it is, he has three camera people,
• 33:17
  two judges.
• 33:18
  I'd be curious how other people do the
• 33:20
  clock thing though, because I know,
• 33:21
  I know that that like you,
• 33:24
  that especially if you're running two
• 33:26
  phones, you can't do that.
• 33:28
  Like we've tried that in the past.
• 33:29
  We've tried to sync the two phones.
• 33:31
  So they don't use the app.
• 33:32
  See, that's the issue.
• 33:33
  Like I try to keep everything in there
• 33:36
  and yeah,
• 33:39
  I think it's caused problems in the past.
• 33:42
  I just like do everything myself.
• 33:43
  Like I'm grabbing the camera.
• 33:45
  I'm filming all the weights, everything.
• 33:48
  Like I don't have five people filming
• 33:51
  everything while I'm continuing my warmup.
• 33:54
  So yeah,
• 33:54
  I would watch Rudy's crew do that.
• 33:56
  Like I just look and I'm like, damn,
• 33:58
  like a lot of high maintenance, I guess,
• 34:03
  like athletes in the space I find.
• 34:06
  I would watch Rudy's crew do all that
• 34:07
  and then go up,
• 34:08
  visit Jamie and see Jamie do everything
• 34:10
  herself.
• 34:13
  It was such a stark difference between the
• 34:18
  two.
• 34:18
  It was amazing.
• 34:21
  It was fun.
• 34:22
  But yeah, I thought the video was great.
• 34:25
  Hiller did a great job.
• 34:26
  They were great.
• 34:28
  I know how hard it is to edit
• 34:30
  and get those out the same overnight.
• 34:34
  I did that for one of Jamie's
• 34:36
  documentaries and I was like up until
• 34:39
  three in the morning in the hotel editing.
• 34:41
  It is crazy.
• 34:43
  The fact that he does that and gets
• 34:46
  those out so quick.
• 34:48
  One,
• 34:48
  they're more relevant and it's a better
• 34:50
  content because of it.
• 34:52
  And two,
• 34:53
  he's busting his ass and should be given
• 34:55
  credit for it.
• 34:57
  Yeah, they're great behind the scenes.
• 35:00
  Just gives you a different visual of like
• 35:05
  how different every athlete is in the way
• 35:07
  that they like certain stuff,
• 35:11
  which I'm sure like other athletes can
• 35:13
  relate.
• 35:14
  take little bits and pieces of,
• 35:16
  of things there,
• 35:17
  or you get to see some of their
• 35:19
  movements were, you know,
• 35:21
  beginning of wads.
• 35:22
  And then you're like, okay,
• 35:22
  this is the pace.
• 35:23
  Um, but yeah, no,
• 35:26
  Hiller's done some really good stuff in
• 35:27
  the last, I mean, really for a while,
• 35:30
  but these last months with the syndicate
• 35:32
  really good.
• 35:34
  I like grants, um, keeping it real.
• 35:36
  I don't know on which account he did
• 35:37
  it.
• 35:38
  The, the one of the girls,
• 35:40
  like with all the things that they talked
• 35:42
  about it in the video was hilarious.
• 35:43
  I didn't miss that.
• 35:44
  I missed that one.
• 35:46
  Just like poking fun at like some of
• 35:48
  the things that they were saying, uh,
• 35:51
  inhalers video from the weekend.
• 35:53
  Okay.
• 35:53
  Yeah.
• 35:54
  No, it was good.
• 35:58
  Um,
• 36:00
  someone historic fitness i don't know if
• 36:02
  those girls are good enough to have that
• 36:03
  kind of pit crew they have it so
• 36:07
  yeah i mean clearly they are they
• 36:09
  apparently they're nice enough people that
• 36:11
  people want to help them yeah um and
• 36:14
  to me that's that's what it's all about
• 36:16
  multiple year games athlete like i think
• 36:19
  that's when alexis is what couple time top
• 36:21
  ten yeah for sure
• 36:28
  so yeah at least two i think i
• 36:33
  didn't uh i didn't get the sense that
• 36:34
  janie had quite the same she wasn't on
• 36:38
  camera as much and maybe she just wasn't
• 36:40
  ret like she's still pretty young and new
• 36:43
  to the sport um she's with brute right
• 36:51
  yeah i think she is with brute
• 36:54
  Cause I didn't,
• 36:54
  I don't feel like I even thought like
• 36:56
  you saw her dad talk occasionally.
• 36:57
  So obviously she had her dad there,
• 36:59
  but I didn't see a whole lot of,
• 37:01
  I mean,
• 37:02
  Kyle talked and Matt's there talking.
• 37:05
  And I think I was even in there,
• 37:06
  right.
• 37:07
  Talking like I didn't see L L not
• 37:11
  in there in that.
• 37:13
  No.
• 37:14
  Cause, cause fee and matter are together.
• 37:17
  Right.
• 37:17
  Kyle and Alexis.
• 37:19
  And then,
• 37:21
  Genie, and I don't know who,
• 37:22
  Genie's is not L or Matt, right?
• 37:25
  Yeah, but who is Josh's coach?
• 37:30
  He's not one of the two either.
• 37:32
  I don't think.
• 37:33
  Maybe.
• 37:34
  I kind of thought he had L.
• 37:35
  He had L for sure, and I think,
• 37:38
  yeah, he did have L.
• 37:46
  Raph, congratulations, Raph,
• 37:49
  on your ticket to the games.
• 37:51
  Hey, everyone,
• 37:51
  it's an important weekend for athletes.
• 37:53
  Can't blame them for getting a bit of
• 37:54
  help to not deal with logistics like
• 37:57
  getting on a ladder to measure a rope
• 37:59
  climb.
• 37:59
  Dude,
• 38:01
  all I was saying is I've seen it
• 38:02
  every way.
• 38:03
  And if you're nice enough and there's
• 38:05
  enough friends in your corner to do it,
• 38:07
  they should do it.
• 38:10
  And you trust those friends.
• 38:14
  Um,
• 38:17
  I think people are like misunderstanding
• 38:19
  what I'm saying.
• 38:20
  I don't know.
• 38:20
  I feel like people are like ripping me,
• 38:23
  I think in the comments,
• 38:24
  but I'm just saying like,
• 38:25
  not everyone has this like fit crew.
• 38:27
  I'm not saying I wouldn't want it,
• 38:29
  but I don't need it.
• 38:30
  That's for sure.
• 38:30
  Like,
• 38:30
  I don't need like people to do everything
• 38:32
  for me, but at the same time,
• 38:34
  I'm not like, I'm just saying like,
• 38:35
  it's a different reality that I live
• 38:37
  versus what other athletes.
• 38:39
  And like, when you see it on video,
• 38:41
  that's what I'm looking at.
• 38:43
  I'm not blaming the athletes for how,
• 38:45
  like it's,
• 38:46
  putting them in the best position to
• 38:48
  succeed.
• 38:49
  It's not anything like that.
• 38:51
  I think people are being defensive in the
• 38:52
  comments.
• 38:56
  But I'm just saying like, yeah,
• 38:57
  reality of how I have my setup is
• 39:02
  just different.
• 39:03
  Like it's not everyone is at the same
• 39:05
  level playing field.
• 39:07
  when we're doing these online qualifiers
• 39:08
  is what I'm saying.
• 39:11
  It's not taking anything away.
• 39:13
  And it's just facts that like some people
• 39:15
  are more high,
• 39:16
  like more high maintenance in the way that
• 39:17
  they need more things.
• 39:19
  They're less like we need more things done
• 39:22
  for them in order for them to perform
• 39:23
  at their best.
• 39:24
  I don't need that personally,
• 39:26
  but it's not ripping them apart.
• 39:28
  It's just, that's what they need.
• 39:29
  I don't need that.
• 39:30
  We're just at different levels.
• 39:32
  Raph is with you.
• 39:34
  Just jealous, Carolyn.
• 39:35
  I wish I had that too.
• 39:41
  Jason Burke is Janie's coach.
• 39:42
  Okay.
• 39:42
  Who's that?
• 39:42
  He's with Brute.
• 39:43
  I just.
• 39:46
  Okay.
• 39:46
  I wonder if he was there.
• 39:47
  Because I feel like he didn't talk at
• 39:51
  all.
• 39:53
  Yeah.
• 39:55
  Maybe she just wasn't as open with Hiller
• 39:57
  as the others.
• 40:00
  Maybe her demeanor is just different on a
• 40:01
  weekend like that.
• 40:03
  Maybe Hiller was more focused on the other
• 40:07
  two girls.
• 40:09
  Well, if you've ever been around Fi,
• 40:11
  Fi is just that way a hundred percent
• 40:13
  of the time.
• 40:14
  It doesn't matter if it's in the middle
• 40:15
  of a competition or whatever.
• 40:17
  She just is open and talking all the
• 40:19
  time.
• 40:19
  Alexa is very much like that as well
• 40:22
  when I've been around her.
• 40:24
  I wonder if there's anything to any of
• 40:27
  these workouts that like either maybe turn
• 40:31
  Janie off or
• 40:34
  I mean,
• 40:35
  you could see him come out and be
• 40:36
  like, well, shit,
• 40:37
  that's not what I'd hoped for.
• 40:39
  And I kind of... I mean,
• 40:43
  I don't know enough about Janie to know
• 40:46
  how strong her deadlift is.
• 40:47
  Is she going to do good in that
• 40:48
  one?
• 40:50
  I mean,
• 40:50
  it looked like it was tough for Fi.
• 40:55
  Grant says we don't know there isn't a
• 40:57
  third video.
• 40:59
  So maybe she's going to do more in
• 41:02
  the next one.
• 41:02
  That's true.
• 41:03
  If there is one.
• 41:06
  And Carolyn, Shanna says,
• 41:07
  I'll be your support person anytime.
• 41:09
  I'll bring you ice and take your shoes
• 41:10
  off.
• 41:14
  I think we're just taking it the wrong
• 41:15
  way.
• 41:17
  It's all good.
• 41:17
  I'm moving past it.
• 41:19
  Yeah.
• 41:20
  We weren't endorsing one way or another.
• 41:21
  We were just saying... No,
• 41:22
  I'm just saying, like,
• 41:23
  it's just you look and you're laughing
• 41:24
  because it's like it just...
• 41:26
  We're not in the same type of environment.
• 41:31
  Well,
• 41:31
  I think the gym they go to is
• 41:33
  very, very supportive of them.
• 41:35
  when they do these workouts because i
• 41:38
  don't they go to that gym for a
• 41:41
  reason because that is not near alexa's
• 41:44
  home in indiana michigan wherever she's at
• 41:47
  now
• 41:48
  Well,
• 41:48
  I think you'd want to go to whatever
• 41:49
  gym a few of the athletes can also
• 41:51
  do the workouts together to get, you know,
• 41:55
  one,
• 41:55
  an atmosphere that might push you to go
• 41:57
  a little faster,
• 41:58
  especially if you have a person to go
• 42:00
  against or a score to beat or,
• 42:02
  you know.
• 42:03
  So I think it makes the most sense
• 42:05
  if that's the area that they can get
• 42:07
  a couple of people to go to.
• 42:09
  versus maybe just being on your own
• 42:10
  because in an online semifinal where the
• 42:12
  blind leaderboard is,
• 42:14
  is there at a huge advantage to have,
• 42:17
  you know,
• 42:18
  definitely people that are games level
• 42:21
  competitor, or at least, you know,
• 42:23
  close to, um, to push against.
• 42:29
  Yeah.
• 42:29
  All right.
• 42:29
  So let's, let's talk some games.
• 42:31
  Um, this week, uh,
• 42:33
  some announcements were made.
• 42:36
  Um,
• 42:38
  Carolyn Prevost needs an optometrist on
• 42:39
  her crew.
• 42:42
  Yeah,
• 42:42
  because the only thing that takes Carolyn
• 42:44
  out is an eyelash.
• 42:45
  I don't even know what that was at
• 42:46
  the beginning of the show,
• 42:47
  but it's fine now.
• 42:48
  As soon as I got the warm wet
• 42:50
  cloth and tried to just pat it down
• 42:53
  a little bit, it felt better.
• 42:58
  They made a couple of announcements this
• 43:01
  week about the CrossFit Games.
• 43:03
  The first announcement that came out is
• 43:05
  there are going to be
• 43:08
  thoughts on twenty events it's hard to
• 43:12
  have thoughts until we kind of see what
• 43:14
  type of events it is it's a lot
• 43:16
  of events that's for sure I don't hate
• 43:19
  it I mean if at the end of
• 43:22
  it you have to
• 43:23
  You have to think the person that wins
• 43:25
  has to be the most well-rounded because
• 43:26
  I'm assuming they're going to test short,
• 43:28
  long, middle, all of the in between.
• 43:31
  So, you know,
• 43:32
  you have twenty tests to prove yourself.
• 43:34
  And if that's not enough,
• 43:35
  then it'll never be enough.
• 43:38
  Right.
• 43:39
  So hoping that it's.
• 43:40
  still pretty i mean it has to be
• 43:43
  broad like it there's no way that he
• 43:45
  makes twenty events and it's not and it's
• 43:46
  so skewed to short like there's no way
• 43:49
  um so i'm looking forward to seeing it
• 43:52
  it's got it it's getting me excited about
• 43:54
  the games that's for sure um
• 43:57
  Just about like the twentieth year,
• 43:59
  just like the hype up that he's talked
• 44:01
  about it being like this is going to
• 44:03
  be crazy and all that and new implements.
• 44:06
  And I'm just looking forward to seeing,
• 44:08
  you know,
• 44:09
  what they come up with and how the
• 44:10
  athletes, I guess,
• 44:11
  adapt to it and what direction he's going
• 44:15
  to turn for this programming.
• 44:17
  Right.
• 44:18
  Yeah.
• 44:20
  I have two thoughts.
• 44:22
  One is it's great content for us because
• 44:25
  there's so much speculation of how do you
• 44:27
  fit twenty events in four days, right?
• 44:31
  What format does it have to be in
• 44:34
  to get that many events in that short
• 44:36
  amount of time?
• 44:38
  The other thought I have is I just
• 44:40
  hope that it doesn't stray from what the
• 44:43
  CrossFit Games have been.
• 44:46
  That we don't go to just like rapid
• 44:48
  fire stuff because this is the twentieth
• 44:53
  year celebration.
• 44:54
  You should be celebrating what has
• 44:56
  happened and what got you to this point.
• 44:59
  And I just want it to be in
• 45:02
  that same vein.
• 45:05
  But there are short periods.
• 45:07
  events that have been done in the past
• 45:10
  that you could almost repeat to bang a
• 45:13
  bunch of them out quickly so it can
• 45:15
  be done it's just i i want it
• 45:18
  to stay in the same format type and
• 45:23
  the other thing like the games used to
• 45:25
  go late like it was early till late
• 45:30
  and then then in like eighteen or nineteen
• 45:32
  they switched it to like a six pm
• 45:35
  curfew in madison
• 45:37
  don't know that sandbag clean went till
• 45:39
  like eight thirty nine o'clock at night
• 45:40
  yeah that was that one that was boss
• 45:43
  and it went way longer than anybody
• 45:45
  thought it was gonna go yeah but for
• 45:47
  the most part it's been try to get
• 45:50
  over try to get it done early yeah
• 45:53
  and this year they're on the west coast
• 45:55
  it could go late true so certainly for
• 46:02
  the east coast people watching it yeah
• 46:06
  Um, so anyway,
• 46:08
  so I'm assuming the Wednesday is a bunch
• 46:11
  of events Thursday off and then
• 46:14
  Friday begins the regular in the comments
• 46:17
  when they announced the twenty.
• 46:18
  There was definitely some people that were
• 46:19
  upset that they, you know,
• 46:21
  would have arrived earlier.
• 46:23
  But like,
• 46:24
  do you think it's even going to be
• 46:27
  possible for people to see any of the
• 46:28
  events on the Wednesday?
• 46:30
  Or do you think it's fully closed?
• 46:31
  Because like you would think if people had
• 46:33
  the opportunity to go see that they would
• 46:35
  they would have released that maybe a
• 46:37
  little bit like earlier.
• 46:39
  I agree.
• 46:41
  They say it's open to the public.
• 46:43
  Some of the locations are open to the
• 46:45
  public.
• 46:46
  Just like the swim,
• 46:49
  the boardwalk was open to the public if
• 46:51
  you wanted to go out, right?
• 46:55
  Because it sounds to me like some of
• 46:56
  these locations are just in a park or
• 47:00
  whatever that is not gated off.
• 47:04
  But if they go to the ranch,
• 47:05
  that's not going to be open to the
• 47:06
  public.
• 47:07
  The zoning there is so tight.
• 47:11
  that it'll be closed off.
• 47:14
  So I don't know.
• 47:15
  I mean,
• 47:16
  I think they said in the email that
• 47:18
  some of the locations would be open to
• 47:20
  the public and there would be no ticket.
• 47:23
  So knowing that,
• 47:25
  do you think that they should have
• 47:26
  released that earlier,
• 47:27
  that the competition would be starting on
• 47:30
  Wednesday and certain events,
• 47:33
  without them saying anything about
• 47:34
  location-wise?
• 47:39
  Just to allow people to get there earlier,
• 47:43
  do you think that that could have been
• 47:44
  done?
• 47:45
  They should have said the game starts on
• 47:49
  Tuesday,
• 47:50
  and here's one ticket for the whole week.
• 47:53
  That's what they should have done.
• 48:00
  Yeah,
• 48:02
  I don't really care that they didn't say
• 48:03
  anything ahead of time.
• 48:05
  There's still plenty of tickets left.
• 48:07
  There's still people making flight
• 48:09
  arrangements and hotel arrangements.
• 48:13
  You can modify your stuff.
• 48:18
  If you go to a CrossFit event,
• 48:19
  the weekday events are very low attended
• 48:22
  anyway.
• 48:23
  So what impact is it truly making?
• 48:29
  That's my thought.
• 48:30
  Like we have way bigger fish to fry
• 48:33
  than that.
• 48:39
  So we know it's twenty scored events.
• 48:41
  We know the email came out.
• 48:42
  It's over four days.
• 48:44
  So Carolyn, you have to be right.
• 48:47
  So it has to be Wednesday, Friday,
• 48:48
  Saturday, Sunday.
• 48:50
  That's the old format.
• 48:52
  no like like the individuals start
• 48:54
  Wednesday the teams start Thursday but um
• 48:59
  I think the individuals will get Thursday
• 49:02
  off and then we'll continue Friday
• 49:04
  Saturday Sunday so they're still getting a
• 49:06
  four-day competition with the rest in
• 49:09
  which we've seen that format of like a
• 49:11
  few times we've seen a four-day Thursday
• 49:13
  Friday Saturday Sunday and then we've seen
• 49:15
  the big day on Wednesday rest
• 49:18
  Like the day that they had like twenty
• 49:20
  eighteen,
• 49:20
  I think was like a big day on
• 49:24
  the first day with the marathon row.
• 49:25
  The.
• 49:26
  Like,
• 49:27
  I think they had a thirty ring muscle
• 49:29
  ups, like a few things,
• 49:30
  and then they rested.
• 49:33
  I think the athletes will like that.
• 49:35
  Yeah, I think so.
• 49:37
  A bunch on Wednesday,
• 49:37
  take a little bit of a break,
• 49:39
  then reset Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
• 49:42
  I think that I think that's a good
• 49:43
  format to go.
• 49:45
  Well,
• 49:45
  and that Wednesday has always been like
• 49:47
  the long swim or the marathon row or
• 49:49
  the,
• 49:50
  so you can beat the athlete up and
• 49:52
  then they have a couple of days to
• 49:53
  recover.
• 49:55
  Yeah.
• 49:55
  And it looks like there's going to be
• 49:56
  a swim at least for the individuals.
• 49:59
  I don't know if that'll go to the
• 50:02
  masters and teams.
• 50:06
  So, yeah.
• 50:08
  The other thing is it did say the
• 50:11
  Wednesday locations are,
• 50:14
  were mentioned, there are two of them.
• 50:16
  One of them is one of the sites
• 50:18
  from the Twenty Twenty Games.
• 50:21
  So in the COVID games,
• 50:23
  you had the ranch and then you had
• 50:24
  the one park that they went to.
• 50:27
  That is going to be a location.
• 50:29
  There's a thing called the Red Barn.
• 50:33
  That's going to be a location.
• 50:34
  And then it says other locations.
• 50:36
  That pool one was Twenty Twenty, right?
• 50:42
  It was.
• 50:43
  Where's that pool at?
• 50:46
  That I would,
• 50:49
  I was trying to think about,
• 50:52
  let me see if I can pull it
• 50:54
  up quickly.
• 51:05
  Okay.
• 51:06
  So here is the post by CrossFit.
• 51:13
  Uh,
• 51:13
  where it starts the one-on-one red barn
• 51:16
  Morgan hill outdoor complex.
• 51:18
  Okay.
• 51:21
  Um,
• 51:22
  that is where they did like bike to
• 51:23
  work.
• 51:24
  Um, the,
• 51:28
  it was like a snatch or snatch or
• 51:30
  overhead squat with a handstand walks was
• 51:35
  done at that complex as well.
• 51:39
  I don't know if the swimming pool was
• 51:40
  called Morgan hill or not.
• 51:47
  I think they'll use like that similar pool
• 51:49
  or,
• 51:49
  or at least they're certainly not going to
• 51:52
  the ocean,
• 51:53
  but like some sort of swimming pool,
• 51:55
  I think they'll do a workout.
• 51:56
  They could redo that.
• 51:59
  Just because like,
• 52:00
  that was a super hard workout,
• 52:01
  but they only got to do it with
• 52:02
  five athletes.
• 52:03
  So I wouldn't be surprised to see
• 52:06
  something like that.
• 52:07
  Come back with like a full field.
• 52:11
  Yeah.
• 52:12
  Yeah.
• 52:13
  I mean,
• 52:14
  do you think there's any chance he pulls
• 52:17
  past workouts to try to... Or no way,
• 52:20
  coming up with new and innovative things
• 52:22
  for...
• 52:23
  Like you think from each year pulling...
• 52:25
  Something, yeah.
• 52:26
  Or even ten brought up and ten new
• 52:29
  ones or...
• 52:31
  A ref says fairly certain that's where the
• 52:32
  pool is.
• 52:35
  And Historic Fitness says Morgan Hill has
• 52:37
  an aquatic center.
• 52:38
  Gotcha.
• 52:40
  I just don't know that he won't want
• 52:42
  this to, I don't know.
• 52:43
  I don't, I, I can't think of what,
• 52:46
  how he would do that.
• 52:47
  Like I can see like some of the
• 52:50
  nostalgia of pulling some events,
• 52:51
  but also I feel like this is the
• 52:53
  twentieth and he wants to program it all.
• 52:55
  And he wants it like,
• 52:57
  he wants it to be all new stuff.
• 53:00
  There's new things that he said that we
• 53:02
  haven't seen before.
• 53:03
  And then the athletes haven't done.
• 53:09
  So you can't grab any,
• 53:11
  like all the twenty years or less and
• 53:14
  then twist it with like.
• 53:17
  I actually think I don't think I would
• 53:19
  enjoy that if you literally took one event
• 53:21
  from each year and just made it.
• 53:26
  I don't think I would enjoy that.
• 53:27
  I don't think he'll do that because I
• 53:29
  think he's been sitting on some stuff for
• 53:31
  many years and I think that.
• 53:34
  He'll be bringing some of that out,
• 53:36
  like I'm really excited to see
• 53:39
  programming this year for for the
• 53:41
  individuals i do think it's a safe bet
• 53:44
  something is going to get pulled from the
• 53:46
  past and maybe a couple from the past
• 53:49
  but i don't it no way is it
• 53:51
  straight that would be boring and i think
• 53:55
  the more interesting bet is dave has
• 53:58
  programmed every games but one do any
• 54:01
  workouts get pulled from the one he didn't
• 54:03
  program and i would say the odds are
• 54:06
  that he would not
• 54:13
  Just for that fact alone,
• 54:14
  I don't think he does one from every
• 54:15
  games.
• 54:17
  Right.
• 54:19
  Cause I don't think he'll put,
• 54:20
  I think he is so bitter about what
• 54:22
  happened in.
• 54:23
  He would pull nothing from those games.
• 54:27
  He's gotta admit there was some good
• 54:28
  workouts there, but people have said,
• 54:32
  but this was a good workout.
• 54:33
  And he goes, I don't know.
• 54:33
  I didn't watch it.
• 54:36
  Right?
• 54:37
  Like that's his answer.
• 54:38
  Well,
• 54:39
  then he definitely can't pull one because
• 54:40
  if you didn't watch
• 54:43
  I mean,
• 54:43
  he watches the other games because he's
• 54:44
  there watching his own events.
• 54:45
  But, yeah, that would not work.
• 54:48
  You got to know the history around the
• 54:50
  event, how it played out.
• 54:51
  I don't want to choose it.
• 54:54
  Yeah.
• 54:55
  I mean, he says that publicly.
• 54:58
  And Boz is on his team.
• 54:59
  Boz did the programming.
• 55:01
  Right.
• 55:05
  I don't know.
• 55:06
  I think that's the more interesting bet
• 55:08
  anyway.
• 55:11
  So...
• 55:13
  Those were the announcements of the games.
• 55:15
  You think that changes how people train?
• 55:19
  I hope so.
• 55:22
  I hope it changes the way people train
• 55:24
  to think that anything could happen again.
• 55:29
  I think we have siloed down into this
• 55:34
  is kind of the format the games are.
• 55:36
  They're all indoors.
• 55:38
  It's all you're going to get a row.
• 55:41
  You're going to get a bike.
• 55:42
  You're going to get
• 55:45
  And I hope that now that because they're
• 55:47
  going outside and James Hobart said there
• 55:50
  is one new implement coming,
• 55:52
  like those are things that you better
• 55:54
  start training outside the box.
• 55:56
  Yeah.
• 55:57
  Like I saw Tudor Magdalene on his
• 55:59
  Instagram doing sandbag carries with a
• 56:03
  really heavy sandbag.
• 56:05
  Like that's the stuff you better be doing
• 56:08
  some odd object stuff,
• 56:10
  figuring out some stuff.
• 56:15
  I hope.
• 56:16
  I hope David Reed's right.
• 56:18
  I hope unknown and unknowable is back.
• 56:23
  Because I do think the last couple arena
• 56:26
  games have been very similar.
• 56:38
  The other thing that happened this week is
• 56:40
  the new CEO, Bruce Edwards,
• 56:42
  spoke at the Two Brains business
• 56:43
  conference.
• 56:45
  He was very open and honest at a
• 56:46
  thirty-minute Q&A with Chris Cooper,
• 56:50
  the owner of Two Brains,
• 56:52
  and fellow Canadian Carolyn.
• 57:00
  He was asked very pointed questions
• 57:01
  because Chris Cooper is de-affiliated.
• 57:05
  And he was asked about that.
• 57:07
  And Bruce was like, if you deaffiliated,
• 57:10
  I understand why.
• 57:14
  And if you're ready to come back,
• 57:16
  we're ready to take you.
• 57:18
  If you're wanting to wait and see what
• 57:20
  we do, I understand that too.
• 57:24
  I think that is a completely different
• 57:25
  approach than things that have been said
• 57:28
  in the past.
• 57:30
  Like promises that can't be kept and like,
• 57:32
  come back, we'll do this, this, this,
• 57:33
  this.
• 57:35
  The stuff that he was saying that were
• 57:36
  more definitive were that they are an
• 57:41
  education company,
• 57:44
  that they need to have more media,
• 57:49
  that it is going to be affiliate focused.
• 57:52
  He loves the games,
• 57:54
  but they need to be prioritized correctly
• 57:57
  in the overall scheme of things.
• 57:59
  And through that conversation said,
• 58:02
  if you grow the affiliates and you grow
• 58:04
  the community,
• 58:05
  the games will grow with it.
• 58:10
  That begs a regional type feel to truly
• 58:14
  grow.
• 58:15
  Again,
• 58:15
  he didn't get into any details of the
• 58:17
  games or the game season.
• 58:21
  And he said that there's a lot of
• 58:23
  people doing silly things.
• 58:26
  at CrossFit HQ and he wants them to
• 58:29
  be more laser focused on what's important.
• 58:32
  And when that happens,
• 58:33
  the silly things are going to fall away.
• 58:35
  Okay.
• 58:41
  And it sounded like a lot of his
• 58:43
  stuff,
• 58:44
  a lot of his vision and plans are
• 58:47
  going to be implemented by this fall.
• 58:48
  Okay.
• 58:57
  I got a lot of questions.
• 58:58
  Go ahead.
• 58:59
  There's too many high-level middle manager
• 59:02
  type people.
• 59:04
  He didn't say anything about the structure
• 59:06
  of HQ.
• 59:07
  Basically, this was his analogy.
• 59:09
  He had a friend who's an affiliate owner
• 59:12
  who said it feels like they gave CrossFit
• 59:14
  HQ their beer money to go on a
• 59:16
  beer run.
• 59:18
  CrossFit HQ went on the beer run and
• 59:19
  never came back.
• 59:25
  And he said he's here to bring the
• 59:26
  beer money back.
• 59:28
  OK.
• 59:35
  So, again,
• 59:35
  he didn't get into like specifics like
• 59:38
  we're firing these people,
• 59:40
  we're making this structure change,
• 59:43
  we're doing this.
• 59:44
  He just said our priorities are education,
• 59:48
  media and affiliates.
• 59:51
  And I think those are the right three
• 59:53
  foundational
• 59:55
  pieces of CrossFit that you should be
• 59:57
  pouring a lot of your resources in.
• 1:00:02
  So that's a good start.
• 1:00:03
  Yeah,
• 1:00:06
  they're saying and then there's doing so
• 1:00:07
  we'll see.
• 1:00:08
  But that's, that's,
• 1:00:10
  that's really good to hear.
• 1:00:13
  Um,
• 1:00:15
  Yeah, I was real.
• 1:00:17
  I was very, very optimistic.
• 1:00:19
  It was a very,
• 1:00:20
  if you have not seen it,
• 1:00:21
  it's only like, twenty eight,
• 1:00:22
  thirty minutes to brain business YouTube
• 1:00:26
  channel.
• 1:00:27
  They put the entire Q&A out.
• 1:00:31
  The first five to ten minutes is like
• 1:00:33
  a background of Bruce.
• 1:00:36
  And then the last twenty is about the
• 1:00:40
  rest of it.
• 1:00:41
  And
• 1:00:43
  Chris Cooper,
• 1:00:44
  because he is a de-affiliated affiliate
• 1:00:47
  owner, was asking, what are you bringing?
• 1:00:50
  What are you adding?
• 1:00:53
  And then when Bruce was done with that,
• 1:00:54
  said, well, what are you taking away?
• 1:00:56
  And that's what he said.
• 1:00:58
  We do too many silly things.
• 1:01:00
  And the focus is going to change.
• 1:01:02
  And that laser focus is going to make
• 1:01:05
  it so the silly things go away.
• 1:01:11
  So, I mean, Chris did not pull punches.
• 1:01:16
  It wasn't like an expose either.
• 1:01:18
  It was kind of in the middle.
• 1:01:21
  And for someone who's only been on the
• 1:01:23
  job for a month,
• 1:01:24
  I thought he was very open and transparent
• 1:01:27
  as much as he could be about what's
• 1:01:29
  going on.
• 1:01:33
  And I do kind of.
• 1:01:36
  Um, Avera by media,
• 1:01:37
  I hope Bruce means he will have an
• 1:01:39
  CrossFit after every GLP one commercial.
• 1:01:42
  He talked about GLP ones too.
• 1:01:46
  He said that those are people spending
• 1:01:48
  thousands of dollars to try to get
• 1:01:51
  themselves into a better place.
• 1:01:54
  And those are the people we should be
• 1:01:55
  bringing in to show them the right way
• 1:01:57
  to do it.
• 1:01:58
  Yeah.
• 1:02:05
  And Chris Cooper told a story that he
• 1:02:07
  had a woman in the gym who was
• 1:02:09
  just tearing it up.
• 1:02:10
  She was like the best of everything.
• 1:02:13
  She was like the best customer he had.
• 1:02:15
  And he wrote a post about anti-bariatric
• 1:02:20
  surgery.
• 1:02:21
  And she was like,
• 1:02:22
  that's the only reason I'm in this gym.
• 1:02:26
  And he said it like knocked him in
• 1:02:28
  the face and was like,
• 1:02:29
  I'm looking at this all wrong.
• 1:02:34
  It's a very good, very good conversation.
• 1:02:38
  Very easy to listen to.
• 1:02:40
  Yeah,
• 1:02:41
  I caught Matt's snippet of it when he
• 1:02:44
  talked about it.
• 1:02:46
  Yeah,
• 1:02:46
  I watched the entire thing probably
• 1:02:48
  Thursday maybe.
• 1:02:49
  Okay.
• 1:02:50
  I think it came out that morning,
• 1:02:52
  and it's really, really good.
• 1:03:02
  I wanted to bring this up to you
• 1:03:03
  guys.
• 1:03:05
  Because I think that we might have a
• 1:03:08
  short show tonight because we don't really
• 1:03:09
  know much with the weekend.
• 1:03:11
  But I saw this,
• 1:03:13
  and I'm going to pull it up because
• 1:03:16
  I saw a couple of these on Instagram.
• 1:03:23
  So this is...
• 1:03:30
  a guy named Matt Kirby.
• 1:03:31
  So High Rocks has banned us from sharing
• 1:03:33
  content of athletes competing at High
• 1:03:35
  Rocks events.
• 1:03:38
  I get that Puma pays to sponsor the
• 1:03:40
  event,
• 1:03:41
  but wouldn't the title sponsor want
• 1:03:43
  maximum eyes on the event regardless of
• 1:03:45
  who is posting it?
• 1:03:47
  Stopping other brands just limits exposure
• 1:03:49
  for the sport and the athletes.
• 1:03:51
  Personally,
• 1:03:52
  I think the more content we share,
• 1:03:54
  the better it is for the sport of
• 1:03:55
  high rocks and the athletes competing in
• 1:03:57
  it.
• 1:03:58
  What do you think?
• 1:03:59
  Where's the line between the title
• 1:04:00
  sponsor's rights and the athlete's
• 1:04:02
  exposure?
• 1:04:03
  I saw another post on this from LSKD.
• 1:04:07
  LSKD was forced to pull down content that
• 1:04:10
  they grabbed from a High Rocks event
• 1:04:14
  because of the relationship High Rocks has
• 1:04:16
  with Puma.
• 1:04:20
  So CrossFit had its own shoe wars at
• 1:04:26
  one point in time.
• 1:04:28
  The crazy thing is I read that Nike...
• 1:04:34
  um reebok other big shoe companies are
• 1:04:37
  signing hyrox athletes and now these hyrox
• 1:04:41
  athletes are going to be finding that
• 1:04:44
  they're not able to advertise for them
• 1:04:49
  they they can't use any photos from a
• 1:04:52
  hyrox event because of the exclusive deal
• 1:04:54
  that hyrox has with puma
• 1:04:57
  So an athlete, I'm sorry,
• 1:04:58
  I'm trying to get this right.
• 1:05:00
  An athlete who would be sponsored by
• 1:05:01
  something other than Puma can't post,
• 1:05:04
  can't be putting out content from the high
• 1:05:07
  rocks event.
• 1:05:08
  Like they couldn't have a post of them
• 1:05:10
  doing their wall balls or even running.
• 1:05:12
  They would only choose athletes that are
• 1:05:13
  wearing Puma stuff.
• 1:05:16
  Well, it's going to make no, no, no.
• 1:05:18
  Well,
• 1:05:18
  I would think it would affect who wants
• 1:05:20
  to sponsor who,
• 1:05:21
  why would you want to participate in a
• 1:05:23
  high rocks in another shoe?
• 1:05:26
  But you can't take a picture of yourself
• 1:05:29
  running a High Rocks in a Nike and
• 1:05:32
  post it on social media saying you were
• 1:05:34
  at a High Rocks event.
• 1:05:36
  Like on your own personal social media?
• 1:05:38
  Correct.
• 1:05:40
  For instance,
• 1:05:41
  if Tier was a sponsor of mine and
• 1:05:43
  I took a picture of me finishing with
• 1:05:45
  Tier and tagged Tier or Rad or whatever.
• 1:05:50
  Yeah,
• 1:05:50
  these people are saying they're being
• 1:05:52
  forced to pull them down.
• 1:05:53
  For like a regular person doing a High
• 1:05:54
  Rocks?
• 1:05:56
  or just the elites i'm assuming the elites
• 1:05:59
  and the sponsored athletes are who they're
• 1:06:01
  going after right now i would i mean
• 1:06:04
  it's i feel like it's going to affect
• 1:06:05
  the sponsors like they're they're going to
• 1:06:08
  know this so they're not going to sponsor
• 1:06:10
  some they're not going to sponsor people
• 1:06:14
  right i think it's going to hurt the
• 1:06:15
  athlete correct i mean sure you'll get
• 1:06:18
  training footage of them and stuff like
• 1:06:20
  that but not race day footage
• 1:06:23
  And if you remember, like this happened,
• 1:06:26
  Reebok had the exclusive deal.
• 1:06:29
  You couldn't even wear anything but Reebok
• 1:06:31
  at the games for a very long time.
• 1:06:35
  But there were other events.
• 1:06:36
  You could go to Wadapalooza and that
• 1:06:38
  restriction wasn't there.
• 1:06:39
  You could go to Rogue and that restriction
• 1:06:41
  isn't there.
• 1:06:42
  So you had other avenues to show off
• 1:06:44
  your gear.
• 1:06:47
  And even the regionals weren't sponsored
• 1:06:51
  by Reebok.
• 1:06:52
  So you could wear your shoes at regionals.
• 1:06:56
  Hyrox, there are no other,
• 1:06:58
  Hyrox is one thing, one entity.
• 1:07:01
  So by shutting this down,
• 1:07:03
  there's no other race unless someone comes
• 1:07:07
  up with a different league for them to
• 1:07:09
  go show this stuff.
• 1:07:14
  But the athletes aren't forced to be
• 1:07:15
  wearing Puma like we were forced to wear,
• 1:07:17
  like the athletes were forced to wear.
• 1:07:18
  Correct.
• 1:07:19
  You just can't use it to advertise for
• 1:07:20
  them.
• 1:07:21
  I wonder if they would ever go that
• 1:07:24
  route.
• 1:07:26
  Well,
• 1:07:26
  they'd have to provide shoes if you're
• 1:07:27
  going to do that.
• 1:07:28
  Yeah, yeah.
• 1:07:28
  Like provide shoes for all the elite
• 1:07:30
  fifteens and... It just is really...
• 1:07:37
  And this is where I'm going with it.
• 1:07:38
  My head works in weird ways.
• 1:07:40
  Is that...
• 1:07:42
  if I'm a high rocks athlete and I
• 1:07:44
  have the chance at a Nike deal and
• 1:07:46
  I'm a really good athlete and now I
• 1:07:49
  can't get that deal because of high rocks,
• 1:07:52
  I'm looking for an alternative.
• 1:07:56
  I mean, right.
• 1:07:58
  No, no, no, no.
• 1:07:59
  I'm looking for a different place to show
• 1:08:01
  off my athleticism.
• 1:08:02
  Yeah.
• 1:08:04
  I'm looking at Xenon.
• 1:08:05
  I'm looking at CrossFit.
• 1:08:07
  I'm looking at these other things to be
• 1:08:10
  able to go do that.
• 1:08:13
  Both of those are too high skilled.
• 1:08:15
  Yeah.
• 1:08:17
  Well,
• 1:08:18
  got to put in some other work than
• 1:08:20
  just those ten events.
• 1:08:24
  Yeah.
• 1:08:25
  If you want the big money.
• 1:08:32
  I agree.
• 1:08:32
  It definitely impacts the athletes.
• 1:08:37
  I do think they lose some...
• 1:08:39
  Or you go to Spartan,
• 1:08:40
  or you go to... I don't know,
• 1:08:44
  maybe Spartan comes back because of this.
• 1:08:46
  Or they're just another created that
• 1:08:49
  splits High Rocks into different factions.
• 1:08:53
  Right?
• 1:08:53
  Like, I don't know.
• 1:08:54
  Yeah.
• 1:08:59
  But, you know,
• 1:09:00
  the Golden Child right now has been High
• 1:09:02
  Rocks, High Rocks, High Rocks.
• 1:09:04
  Now they're starting to hit the same...
• 1:09:06
  issues that that played crossfit i mean if
• 1:09:11
  xenon does it right this could be huge
• 1:09:21
  you got to be able to weightlift of
• 1:09:22
  course of course but you can learn um
• 1:09:37
  One hundred percent impacts athletes and
• 1:09:38
  only benefits High Rocks strengthening
• 1:09:40
  their deal with Puma.
• 1:09:41
  Yeah,
• 1:09:42
  but if you start losing the Elite Fifteen
• 1:09:46
  because they can't get a sponsor.
• 1:09:52
  Because I would wonder,
• 1:09:54
  I would love to see a study.
• 1:09:56
  Puma sponsors High Rocks.
• 1:09:58
  How many of the individual athletes do
• 1:10:00
  they sponsor?
• 1:10:01
  Or do they say the overall is all
• 1:10:03
  we got?
• 1:10:05
  No, I think they...
• 1:10:06
  sponsor quite a few of those top athletes.
• 1:10:12
  They sponsor Hunter.
• 1:10:14
  I'm pretty sure they sponsor Jacob Jacoby.
• 1:10:20
  I thought they might sponsor
• 1:10:23
  What's-Her-Face that does a little bit of
• 1:10:25
  CrossFit at Lauren Weeks.
• 1:10:28
  So I Can't Believe It's Not Butter lists
• 1:10:33
  the people that are sponsored by Puma.
• 1:10:36
  I would say those are all definite
• 1:10:37
  Puma-sponsored athletes.
• 1:10:42
  And I think there's a couple more.
• 1:10:47
  Raf says,
• 1:10:48
  I think the elites will be able to
• 1:10:49
  get sponsored if they have enough of a
• 1:10:50
  following,
• 1:10:51
  but the up-and-comers get screwed unless
• 1:10:54
  they can land a Puma deal.
• 1:10:58
  And what are the followings like in High
• 1:11:00
  Rocks?
• 1:11:02
  I don't even know.
• 1:11:03
  It's not something I've dove into.
• 1:11:10
  So I don't know,
• 1:11:12
  it was just I saw it pop up
• 1:11:13
  and I grabbed it as something to discuss
• 1:11:16
  because I,
• 1:11:17
  I do think it is a disturbance in
• 1:11:20
  the space.
• 1:11:23
  How it's all going to play out.
• 1:11:24
  I don't know.
• 1:11:26
  I just find it interesting because it is
• 1:11:28
  definitely a disruption at the very least.
• 1:11:36
  Because you know,
• 1:11:37
  everybody today is saying CrossFit is not
• 1:11:40
  where it used to be because we don't
• 1:11:41
  have the Reebok money.
• 1:11:42
  Yup.
• 1:11:45
  Right.
• 1:11:46
  Well now high rocks may be having their
• 1:11:48
  own problems with Puma money.
• 1:11:53
  Puma must've made a sweet enough deal.
• 1:11:54
  Yeah.
• 1:12:01
  I don't know.
• 1:12:03
  It's interesting.
• 1:12:09
  Has Carolyn talked about reduce yet?
• 1:12:11
  Did you redo any?
• 1:12:13
  You did.
• 1:12:14
  Oh, wow.
• 1:12:17
  You know, I redo me.
• 1:12:20
  I think there's only one year I didn't
• 1:12:22
  redo.
• 1:12:24
  I'm taking a half day tomorrow to redo.
• 1:12:26
  Oh, my gosh.
• 1:12:27
  I'm just mad at myself.
• 1:12:28
  I can't double under.
• 1:12:29
  It's so frustrating.
• 1:12:33
  It's so frustrating.
• 1:12:36
  I saw that workout come out and I
• 1:12:37
  was like, cause you said last Sunday,
• 1:12:40
  I know the workouts come out and they
• 1:12:42
  look good for me.
• 1:12:44
  I'm going to do it.
• 1:12:45
  And then I saw the first thing was
• 1:12:47
  three hundred double unders or whatever or
• 1:12:48
  fifty to be fifty four hundred fifty
• 1:12:51
  double unders.
• 1:12:52
  I was like, nope,
• 1:12:53
  Carolyn's not doing the workouts this
• 1:12:54
  week.
• 1:12:54
  No,
• 1:12:55
  I wasn't going to quiet in our chat.
• 1:12:58
  I wasn't going to.
• 1:12:59
  And then I thought to myself.
• 1:13:02
  This was my reflection was the rules
• 1:13:05
  change every year.
• 1:13:07
  I've qualified for semifinals.
• 1:13:10
  I don't know how many more years I
• 1:13:12
  can qualify for semifinals.
• 1:13:14
  These are good workouts.
• 1:13:15
  I mean, I qualified.
• 1:13:17
  Okay, but the rules can change.
• 1:13:18
  It doesn't need to be two thousand.
• 1:13:19
  The next year could be just two hundred.
• 1:13:22
  Like you don't know.
• 1:13:23
  And I'm like,
• 1:13:23
  they're not bad workouts to do in
• 1:13:25
  training.
• 1:13:25
  Yeah.
• 1:13:28
  just do your best and then continue with
• 1:13:31
  your training.
• 1:13:32
  And, um,
• 1:13:34
  as much as it hits my ego on
• 1:13:36
  the double one, Oh,
• 1:13:38
  it's just so frustrating.
• 1:13:40
  It's a pair that like,
• 1:13:42
  so anything that's very shoulder
• 1:13:44
  intensive, whether it's handstand walk,
• 1:13:46
  handstand pushups,
• 1:13:48
  wall balls paired with double unders is
• 1:13:52
  just a nightmare for me.
• 1:13:55
  And, uh,
• 1:13:57
  yeah it's uh you have good days you
• 1:14:00
  have bad days and you have days where
• 1:14:02
  i don't even know if i'm doing crossfit
• 1:14:04
  anymore it's just so bad but it's so
• 1:14:09
  funny every time i see you do a
• 1:14:11
  double under workout now i'm just like i'm
• 1:14:13
  counting like she's she's going on broken
• 1:14:15
  she's going on broken can she do it
• 1:14:17
  can she do it i went on broken
• 1:14:19
  in the last fifty that's all i can
• 1:14:20
  say last fifty and i was like oh
• 1:14:22
  i can't do it every other round
• 1:14:27
  Haley's probably happy.
• 1:14:28
  She qualified at syndicate.
• 1:14:30
  I didn't have to do this one.
• 1:14:32
  Uh, do you,
• 1:14:33
  it says double unders with a lot of
• 1:14:35
  cry emojis.
• 1:14:37
  It's really how I feel every single time.
• 1:14:40
  Like last year at the Masters Games,
• 1:14:41
  I think I took a second or a
• 1:14:42
  third in the double under workout,
• 1:14:44
  and I was shocked because I finished dead
• 1:14:46
  last every single competition that has a
• 1:14:50
  large volume of double unders.
• 1:14:51
  So I made up some ground somewhere else
• 1:14:54
  in that workout to help me.
• 1:14:56
  But yeah, it's... Grant wants to know,
• 1:15:01
  what workouts does Carolyn think she'll
• 1:15:02
  have the best finish on?
• 1:15:04
  If you have to ask that question, Grant,
• 1:15:06
  you do not know who Carolyn is.
• 1:15:09
  To be fair,
• 1:15:09
  I think you'd have a decent one on
• 1:15:11
  the ring muscle up just to work out.
• 1:15:14
  I'm resting too much.
• 1:15:16
  You know what?
• 1:15:18
  The reflection I had this weekend was not
• 1:15:21
  that I feel out of shape,
• 1:15:23
  but I just miss training in a regular
• 1:15:28
  routine.
• 1:15:29
  And I feel like I've done a lot
• 1:15:31
  of competitions.
• 1:15:32
  I can maintain a certain amount of
• 1:15:33
  fitness,
• 1:15:34
  but I just don't feel like I'm in
• 1:15:37
  peak shape anymore.
• 1:15:39
  Yeah.
• 1:15:39
  Like I've done three comps.
• 1:15:41
  This is my fourth comp.
• 1:15:43
  And I don't know if I'm spreading thin,
• 1:15:46
  but like, I just don't have like that,
• 1:15:49
  like that extra gear.
• 1:15:50
  I'm just a little bit more winded.
• 1:15:51
  I need to focus,
• 1:15:53
  certainly need to focus these next few
• 1:15:55
  weeks to prepare for the games.
• 1:15:58
  And I will, because it's just like,
• 1:16:01
  you're doing the workouts and you're just,
• 1:16:02
  yeah,
• 1:16:02
  you're just a little bit not focused.
• 1:16:06
  exactly where you should be.
• 1:16:07
  But yeah,
• 1:16:07
  that one should have been better.
• 1:16:10
  But to answer your question, Grant,
• 1:16:13
  it's one thousand percent the deadlift
• 1:16:16
  workout.
• 1:16:17
  Not even close.
• 1:16:18
  It's just that I won't row as hard
• 1:16:20
  as someone else.
• 1:16:23
  I can make up a lot just off
• 1:16:25
  of that alone.
• 1:16:29
  So that one will be by far my
• 1:16:30
  best one.
• 1:16:31
  And then I feel like I have one
• 1:16:34
  very, very good workout,
• 1:16:35
  one
• 1:16:37
  trash in the way down in the trash
• 1:16:42
  workout um two that are three that are
• 1:16:47
  like meh that's how i feel this weekend
• 1:16:50
  do i need to redo no but i
• 1:16:53
  just i'm i'm of the opinion that like
• 1:16:55
  if i put my name on a leaderboard
• 1:16:57
  no matter where i finish i want to
• 1:16:59
  leave that weekend knowing that i at least
• 1:17:00
  tried my best to do whatever i could
• 1:17:03
  And if that's where I land,
• 1:17:04
  that's where I land.
• 1:17:05
  Like it just,
• 1:17:06
  it is what it is like that.
• 1:17:07
  This is where I placed on those workouts.
• 1:17:10
  I did what I could.
• 1:17:12
  I feel like when I have regrets where
• 1:17:13
  it's like, oh, I should have redone.
• 1:17:15
  I could have done this.
• 1:17:16
  Well, you didn't like,
• 1:17:17
  that's what you got.
• 1:17:19
  So at least I'm like, okay,
• 1:17:20
  I could have done this and I don't
• 1:17:21
  do it.
• 1:17:21
  It's like, okay, I'm not,
• 1:17:23
  I'm just not there where I think I
• 1:17:25
  am and where is reality.
• 1:17:26
  I'm not there.
• 1:17:28
  So yeah, that's, that was my weekend.
• 1:17:32
  Did you guys mention James versus Tudor?
• 1:17:35
  I haven't seen that.
• 1:17:36
  Where's that at?
• 1:17:37
  We didn't, Grant.
• 1:17:38
  You know why?
• 1:17:39
  Like The Rock said,
• 1:17:40
  it just doesn't matter about Tudor and
• 1:17:43
  James because they're already qualified.
• 1:17:48
  Did they do it together just for fun?
• 1:17:52
  I don't know.
• 1:17:57
  I'm not close to that score,
• 1:17:58
  I'll tell you that.
• 1:18:00
  Yeah, James' fitness is just...
• 1:18:04
  He's so good.
• 1:18:05
  But you know what?
• 1:18:06
  Tudor's fit too, though.
• 1:18:08
  Tudor's fit.
• 1:18:09
  Tudor's looking good.
• 1:18:10
  Yeah, he's looking good.
• 1:18:11
  But if James is beating him by a
• 1:18:13
  minute when Tudor's dubs are that fast...
• 1:18:17
  That's insane because Tudor is arguably
• 1:18:20
  faster on his hand also.
• 1:18:22
  So the wall,
• 1:18:22
  the wall balls slowing him down that much,
• 1:18:25
  or it's just.
• 1:18:25
  So it was James unbroken then on the
• 1:18:27
  wall balls, everything.
• 1:18:29
  Yeah.
• 1:18:29
  That's insane.
• 1:18:31
  A minute.
• 1:18:31
  Yeah.
• 1:18:38
  Tudor's handstand walk is great.
• 1:18:39
  Yeah.
• 1:18:40
  It's crazy.
• 1:18:42
  I'll certainly look at that video when
• 1:18:44
  we're off the air.
• 1:18:46
  I just want to see it.
• 1:18:47
  When you see a score that's so good,
• 1:18:50
  it's just fascinating to see because you
• 1:18:52
  know what you did and you just appreciate
• 1:18:56
  that score so much more.
• 1:19:00
  It's just so impressive.
• 1:19:03
  Colton's fitness is just a little bit
• 1:19:07
  above everyone else.
• 1:19:10
  Here's what I don't like about James and
• 1:19:13
  Tudor and Alex doing all this stuff.
• 1:19:16
  They don't have the pressure.
• 1:19:18
  They get to just let it rip.
• 1:19:21
  If they go all out and the wheels
• 1:19:23
  fall off, they just don't post the video.
• 1:19:26
  They didn't warm up, measure everything.
• 1:19:30
  That stuff takes time.
• 1:19:31
  They may have not done the other four
• 1:19:32
  workouts.
• 1:19:37
  I think
• 1:19:40
  While it's cool to say they could do
• 1:19:41
  it like this,
• 1:19:43
  they don't have the pressure.
• 1:19:44
  They don't have the fatigue.
• 1:19:46
  They're just training and they're just
• 1:19:47
  doing it.
• 1:19:49
  We don't know what is surrounding their
• 1:19:52
  scenario.
• 1:19:53
  We don't know what James Tudor,
• 1:19:54
  but Alex did them all,
• 1:19:55
  did the proper videos,
• 1:19:57
  measurements and everything,
• 1:19:58
  is doing them.
• 1:19:59
  Her snatch one was crazy.
• 1:20:01
  Oh, gosh.
• 1:20:02
  Oh, my goodness.
• 1:20:03
  She's strong.
• 1:20:04
  I'm like, man, goals.
• 1:20:06
  That last snatch, should it have counted?
• 1:20:09
  Not even just the last one.
• 1:20:10
  There was multiple that she just presses
• 1:20:12
  out.
• 1:20:13
  She's just so strong.
• 1:20:18
  I might have went no rep on that
• 1:20:20
  last one.
• 1:20:21
  Why?
• 1:20:21
  Because you have to clear the head.
• 1:20:25
  I'm not sure it got above her head.
• 1:20:27
  It did.
• 1:20:28
  It did.
• 1:20:29
  It was caught here.
• 1:20:30
  She pressed.
• 1:20:31
  She was arched back so much.
• 1:20:35
  I didn't even think about that.
• 1:20:35
  It's still a one motion.
• 1:20:37
  I didn't stop at the shoulders.
• 1:20:39
  Former judge right here.
• 1:20:41
  It has to clear the head.
• 1:20:44
  I would give it to her.
• 1:20:47
  i like justin's response at one point i
• 1:20:49
  think it was on his story or something
• 1:20:50
  and it was like like they do so
• 1:20:52
  much work but like it's just like you
• 1:20:55
  know she goes back to her habit he's
• 1:20:56
  like i swear she doesn't lift like this
• 1:20:59
  on the regular but man that girl's strong
• 1:21:04
  one of my best friends the first open
• 1:21:06
  we ever did was the burpee to target
• 1:21:09
  snatch increasing weight yep his first
• 1:21:15
  one-thirty-five snatch we never snatched
• 1:21:17
  in our gym we were all like newbies
• 1:21:20
  look like alex's snatch that's how jim
• 1:21:22
  snatches it's oh we we called it the
• 1:21:26
  uh snatch and jerk yes
• 1:21:32
  Yeah, it was so bad.
• 1:21:34
  Doing the limbo to catch the snatch is
• 1:21:37
  not ideal.
• 1:21:38
  Yeah, she's good.
• 1:21:46
  She said she can squat snatch or power
• 1:21:47
  snatch light mid-weight.
• 1:21:49
  She has no in-between.
• 1:21:56
  Oh, yeah, Avera.
• 1:21:56
  She was going to press it.
• 1:21:59
  If I ever got into that position,
• 1:22:01
  there's not even any fight in me.
• 1:22:03
  It's like, you just drop it.
• 1:22:04
  Right.
• 1:22:06
  But the fact that like,
• 1:22:07
  she can catch like this and like,
• 1:22:08
  there's not even a thought that's like,
• 1:22:10
  bring it down.
• 1:22:10
  It's like, no, like just lift the bar.
• 1:22:14
  Like, it's just crazy.
• 1:22:16
  But I don't know.
• 1:22:17
  Cause I feel like I'm similar to you
• 1:22:19
  would fight it.
• 1:22:21
  Yeah.
• 1:22:21
  I, I don't, I don't snatch like that,
• 1:22:24
  but I do feel like,
• 1:22:27
  I think,
• 1:22:28
  I think I'm similar to Alex in that
• 1:22:30
  my like upper body full strength is like
• 1:22:34
  probably my best thing.
• 1:22:38
  So I think, I don't know,
• 1:22:40
  I don't know if this is her issue,
• 1:22:41
  but for me,
• 1:22:42
  I know that I don't like,
• 1:22:44
  like I want to be in control of
• 1:22:46
  the weight the whole time.
• 1:22:47
  It's why I'll never get great at Olympic
• 1:22:48
  lifting, like,
• 1:22:50
  and probably because my shoulders are
• 1:22:51
  torn and so like I don't I don't
• 1:22:53
  ever want that weightless feeling and then
• 1:22:55
  catching so like I want to be in
• 1:22:57
  control of it the whole time when I
• 1:22:59
  watch her it reminds me of what I
• 1:23:01
  want to do when I jerk when I
• 1:23:03
  do anything like I what you want to
• 1:23:05
  do well it's kind of what I do
• 1:23:06
  like I don't really jerk like I press
• 1:23:09
  it out like I will not get under
• 1:23:11
  the weight I will press it out
• 1:23:14
  I would like to go at the end
• 1:23:15
  of the week,
• 1:23:16
  but my mobility doesn't allow me to.
• 1:23:20
  I will end up pressing the end of
• 1:23:22
  jerks.
• 1:23:25
  Who do you guys think is the strongest?
• 1:23:27
  It would just hurt my shoulder to fight
• 1:23:29
  for that position.
• 1:23:31
  I would just drop it and reset.
• 1:23:34
  That's smart.
• 1:23:35
  Who do you guys think is the strongest
• 1:23:36
  woman you've seen in CrossFit?
• 1:23:40
  it's hard because they're strong people in
• 1:23:41
  CrossFit,
• 1:23:42
  but they're just not in what as like,
• 1:23:45
  like, yeah,
• 1:23:46
  I guess the strongest woman I've ever seen
• 1:23:48
  as a team athlete.
• 1:23:50
  And it is, I,
• 1:23:53
  From Move Fast, Lift Heavy?
• 1:23:55
  Yeah.
• 1:23:55
  Yep.
• 1:23:56
  I know.
• 1:23:57
  Yep.
• 1:23:57
  Is it Leviticus or Christine?
• 1:23:59
  Christine Middleton.
• 1:24:00
  Christine Middleton.
• 1:24:01
  That's it.
• 1:24:02
  Christine Middleton.
• 1:24:03
  Is it Zol?
• 1:24:04
  Did she change her last name?
• 1:24:06
  She may have.
• 1:24:07
  She may have in the last year or
• 1:24:08
  two.
• 1:24:09
  And she's not big.
• 1:24:12
  No.
• 1:24:13
  Like pound for pound is like pretty,
• 1:24:17
  like it has to be up there in
• 1:24:19
  terms of, yeah, that's the one.
• 1:24:22
  she has to be up there because like
• 1:24:25
  when I saw her,
• 1:24:26
  cause she was at the games last year
• 1:24:27
  too.
• 1:24:27
  And so impressive on the clean and jerk
• 1:24:30
  that she had.
• 1:24:31
  She missed it behind her.
• 1:24:32
  Like at like, I don't even know,
• 1:24:33
  two eight years on the two sixties
• 1:24:35
  something.
• 1:24:36
  But I was expecting someone.
• 1:24:39
  Cause I,
• 1:24:40
  I don't remember competing against her
• 1:24:41
  very often.
• 1:24:41
  I think because she was a team athlete
• 1:24:44
  and I was expecting a different body type.
• 1:24:47
  And then I saw her and I'm like,
• 1:24:49
  wow like she's got all that strength in
• 1:24:51
  that body which is like crazy because you
• 1:24:55
  just you figure she'd be more on like
• 1:24:57
  the bigger end to be that strong but
• 1:25:02
  very very impressive yeah she's gotta be
• 1:25:03
  one of the strongest but again it depends
• 1:25:05
  on the lift because i don't know in
• 1:25:06
  certain lifts like who's strong like it's
• 1:25:09
  yeah i think in the in the elite
• 1:25:12
  division spiegel's pretty damn strong
• 1:25:15
  yeah she'd be hard to go against and
• 1:25:18
  and in their prime um another christine
• 1:25:26
  why can't i think of her last name
• 1:25:28
  yes before christine kohler brander in her
• 1:25:31
  prime yeah certain yeah that's like
• 1:25:35
  barnhart too though like certain like the
• 1:25:38
  clean like she's
• 1:25:41
  But Christine was...
• 1:25:42
  In the field that we have in the
• 1:25:44
  last couple years...
• 1:25:52
  I don't think Gazan is one of the
• 1:25:54
  strongest.
• 1:25:56
  In terms of raw strength,
• 1:25:59
  I'd put her up there.
• 1:26:01
  In terms of technical strength,
• 1:26:03
  her clean and jerk, I'm assuming,
• 1:26:04
  is way up there,
• 1:26:05
  but it's just her snatch at two hundred
• 1:26:07
  or two or five.
• 1:26:09
  Hannah Black.
• 1:26:10
  Oh, would it be Hannah Black right now?
• 1:26:12
  Yeah, probably Hannah Black right now,
• 1:26:14
  for sure.
• 1:26:15
  And she doesn't even lift anymore.
• 1:26:17
  What does Hannah deadlift?
• 1:26:20
  She deadlifted,
• 1:26:21
  I want to say like four fifteen or
• 1:26:23
  four or five at WFP,
• 1:26:26
  somewhere in between those two,
• 1:26:28
  maybe four or five.
• 1:26:33
  I don't know,
• 1:26:34
  I feel like you'd have to do a
• 1:26:35
  true like power lifting total.
• 1:26:40
  Dana Perron would be also probably in
• 1:26:44
  terms of all power lifting and Olympic
• 1:26:47
  lifting I take my answer back with Hannah
• 1:26:49
  Black I'd pick Dana right I'd love to
• 1:26:52
  see it I'd love to see a showdown
• 1:26:54
  with the two not even close to above
• 1:26:56
  like above Olivia but she's not a games
• 1:26:57
  athlete but Dana in terms of like the
• 1:27:01
  semi-final field
• 1:27:04
  She killed that deadlift at WFP, too.
• 1:27:07
  She could have gone heavier, too.
• 1:27:08
  If she was in the final heat,
• 1:27:10
  she would have continued.
• 1:27:11
  There's no doubt in my mind.
• 1:27:12
  All right.
• 1:27:14
  Well, that was a fun conversation.
• 1:27:17
  We have, what,
• 1:27:19
  a month and a couple weeks to the
• 1:27:21
  games?
• 1:27:23
  It's going by way faster.
• 1:27:25
  I have a couple weeks left of school,
• 1:27:27
  and I'm like, oh, my God.
• 1:27:28
  I get to California, and I'm like, oh,
• 1:27:30
  there's just three weeks left until the
• 1:27:32
  games are there.
• 1:27:33
  Like I didn't, I, I,
• 1:27:35
  are we like a week earlier than we
• 1:27:37
  normally are?
• 1:27:37
  Yeah.
• 1:27:37
  Okay.
• 1:27:38
  Cause I feel like I have normally a
• 1:27:41
  month of time where I can be a
• 1:27:43
  full-time athlete.
• 1:27:44
  And now I'm like, no,
• 1:27:46
  I think I only had like three weeks.
• 1:27:47
  Like this is much faster than I it's,
• 1:27:49
  it's coming up way too fast.
• 1:27:51
  Scott,
• 1:27:51
  I don't even get to do brush posts.
• 1:27:55
  Yeah.
• 1:27:56
  That's the Michigan one.
• 1:27:57
  It's on Saturday and I need to fly
• 1:27:59
  out on Sunday or whatever.
• 1:28:01
  Like I, it just doesn't work.
• 1:28:03
  And, and that's not smart.
• 1:28:04
  I should, I should.
• 1:28:08
  Yeah.
• 1:28:08
  That's crazy.
• 1:28:09
  I might, I'm all paid, but yeah.
• 1:28:11
  Fresh Coast is a week late and the
• 1:28:13
  games is a week early.
• 1:28:14
  So it just falls on like the same
• 1:28:15
  week.
• 1:28:15
  Well, and for masters, it's a month early.
• 1:28:17
  Exactly.
• 1:28:18
  Right.
• 1:28:19
  Yeah.
• 1:28:21
  Like.
• 1:28:22
  I know.
• 1:28:22
  Yeah, I mean,
• 1:28:23
  you were end of August last year.
• 1:28:24
  Now you're before the games this year,
• 1:28:27
  which is insane.
• 1:28:29
  And then there's WFP qualifiers July first
• 1:28:32
  to eighth as well in there.
• 1:28:39
  I'm working on a WFP story too.
• 1:28:44
  I'm working on a WFP story.
• 1:28:48
  Cool.
• 1:28:48
  Hopefully we'll have some details on that
• 1:28:49
  coming up.
• 1:28:53
  With that, guys, it's been fun.
• 1:28:56
  We're going to have shows all week.
• 1:28:58
  I only have a four-day work week this
• 1:29:02
  week.
• 1:29:03
  Oh, you get Juneteenth off?
• 1:29:05
  Juneteenth on the Friday we have off.
• 1:29:07
  So I have a long weekend.
• 1:29:09
  That's going to be fun.
• 1:29:12
  Yeah,
• 1:29:12
  Kelsey Keough was another really strong
• 1:29:15
  athlete.
• 1:29:16
  I liked her post the other day.
• 1:29:18
  She was like eight months pregnant.
• 1:29:19
