- 1:07and see what people are doing and all
- 1:08of that kind of stuff.
- 1:11It, it had such a buildup.
- 1:14I think it kind of met it.
- 1:16I think it kind of met the buildup.
- 1:18And we're going to talk about that in
- 1:19a little bit, but man,
- 1:22how was your weekend guys?
- 1:25Nothing going on.
- 1:28Nothing going on.
- 1:29Yep.
- 1:30Nothing on my plate.
- 1:32Pretty easy weekend.
- 1:34Uh, you know, no,
- 1:36I mean just basically quarterfinals
- 1:37judging people a lot this weekend, uh,
- 1:41cheering for people this weekend.
- 1:43And then this afternoon I went to watch
- 1:46a PWHL game.
- 1:47So the professional women's hockey league,
- 1:50um,
- 1:51Did I see the men's Wisconsin team made
- 1:52the Frozen Four?
- 1:53You did.
- 1:55Yep,
- 1:56we're going to go two for two this
- 1:58year in hockey.
- 1:59I don't think that's happened since,
- 2:01I want to say, maybe both teams won.
- 2:06It's pretty rare.
- 2:08So fingers crossed that they can get it
- 2:09done,
- 2:10but happy to see them in the Frozen
- 2:12Four.
- 2:12Took down my Spartans.
- 2:14Wisconsin is back for men's hockey.
- 2:17Boo.
- 2:18Yeah.
- 2:19We're going to talk about the tournament
- 2:20here.
- 2:21Well, let's talk about the tournament now.
- 2:22I have nobody left there.
- 2:23I have nothing left.
- 2:25Now you're talking about basketball.
- 2:27I didn't get a single,
- 2:29single piece of the men's frozen or
- 2:32frozen.
- 2:35I think I'm at the bottom.
- 2:36Like, I think I got everything wrong.
- 2:39Zilch, nitch, none.
- 2:41Duke losing tonight, I guess,
- 2:43and I missed the final shot.
- 2:45I guess it was one of the greatest
- 2:46shots in tournament history.
- 2:49They lost two, and I totally missed that.
- 2:52And I have the leaderboard as it stands
- 2:57currently.
- 2:58Here is the men's.
- 3:01And I did much better on the women's,
- 3:02but we'll get to that in a second.
- 3:04So currently, Trent Olive.
- 3:08is in the lead,
- 3:10but her Gators are gone.
- 3:13Second is Chad Scott and he still has
- 3:16the Arizona Wildcats.
- 3:18Jay Burch lost Houston.
- 3:20Blair Leadingham has Michigan.
- 3:25And then there is Mr.
- 3:27Aaron Latimer and he still has Arizona.
- 3:32So you're saying there's a chance.
- 3:35I think that's who I picked, too,
- 3:36on the men's side.
- 3:37Yeah, but Caroline, you're way down here.
- 3:41She's beating me.
- 3:42I'm not last, though.
- 3:46Yeah, you're beating me, too, Jamie.
- 3:47Yes!
- 3:49I'm down here in the Andrews pen.
- 3:52I'm sixth from the bottom.
- 3:54That's pretty good.
- 3:55You're fourth from the bottom.
- 3:57Not last.
- 3:59You're second.
- 4:01And then just whisper from the bottom.
- 4:03Oh, Vicky is yelling, and she should.
- 4:06She's tied with Mr. Latimer.
- 4:09Yep.
- 4:13Where's that at?
- 4:14I lost it now.
- 4:15Actually, she's beating him by ten.
- 4:16There we go.
- 4:17She's tied with letting him.
- 4:19Yeah, but she doesn't have the Gators.
- 4:22The reason I skipped her is her team
- 4:23is gone.
- 4:24You're out, yeah.
- 4:24So Aaron's probably going to be getting
- 4:26some points on you.
- 4:30So there it is.
- 4:31Woman's side?
- 4:32Yeah, how's the women's side?
- 4:33And then on the women's side...
- 4:35That's the one I care about.
- 4:37We're still not doing well.
- 4:39Oh, no.
- 4:41I mean, we're tied, Carolyn.
- 4:44So it's Jay Burch is in the lead,
- 4:47and he's got Texas.
- 4:48Then it's Eric Mackey, Carolyn Prevo,
- 4:51and Jamie Latimer.
- 4:53And you all have UConn.
- 4:56I'm sitting here in the weeds,
- 4:57ready to come back with my Gamecocks.
- 5:04Second to last, but I'm on the move.
- 5:07I'm ready to go.
- 5:08Still got potential.
- 5:10Two for two on second place.
- 5:11To last, to last.
- 5:14For you.
- 5:16Yeah.
- 5:16Just whisper it, that last part.
- 5:18I hold the tournament for everybody.
- 5:20I don't want to take the trophy from
- 5:22the people.
- 5:22People would think you'd be cheating.
- 5:24Right.
- 5:24Right.
- 5:26So inside some inside stuff in there.
- 5:28So I pick opposite of what I would
- 5:30think.
- 5:30And then so everybody else can get the
- 5:33trophy.
- 5:34I might try that next year.
- 5:37It's got to go better than this.
- 5:40Yeah, this was terrible.
- 5:41Terrible.
- 5:42So that's the tournament stuff from where
- 5:44we stand.
- 5:46Other than that,
- 5:49it's been a kind of a crazy weekend.
- 5:52I finished the Madison.
- 5:53Yeah.
- 5:55Taylor Sheridan's new show on Paramount+.
- 5:58It's only six episodes.
- 6:00Michelle Pfeiffer, Kurt Russell.
- 6:04I really liked it.
- 6:05It's very different than his other stuff.
- 6:09It has all the emotions, laugh, cry,
- 6:12the whole bit.
- 6:15Highly recommend,
- 6:16but it's not your typical like Yellowstone
- 6:19or anything like that.
- 6:20It,
- 6:21it has a different vibe and a feel
- 6:22for sure.
- 6:25But really, really enjoyed it.
- 6:26And then we watched the movie,
- 6:29Mike and Nick and Nick and Alice and
- 6:33with um oh vince vaughn and oh what's
- 6:41the guy james marston okay and it was
- 6:46i really really enjoyed it i don't know
- 6:49how i would categorize the movie it is
- 6:54it is quirky for sure it's got a
- 6:56little sci-fi a little gangster a little
- 7:00comedy
- 7:02but I really enjoyed it,
- 7:03but it doesn't really fit any kind of,
- 7:07doesn't really fit any kind of genre and
- 7:09it's a Hulu original.
- 7:11Oh, okay.
- 7:13Is it,
- 7:14is it being promoted as a comedy or
- 7:17what?
- 7:18What does it say it is?
- 7:21I don't, I, I don't, I don't know.
- 7:25I mean,
- 7:25there are some funny parts for sure, but,
- 7:28Uh,
- 7:29but it's got a little like John wickish
- 7:32stuff to it.
- 7:32It's got a little good fellas.
- 7:35It's got a little, like,
- 7:37it's just a little doctor who like,
- 7:40it's just really out there and you really
- 7:42have to kind of just go along with
- 7:45it.
- 7:45And then you, the past pretty good.
- 7:48Interesting.
- 7:52Um,
- 7:54Corey said I did better than him.
- 7:55He couldn't make it through the first
- 7:56episode.
- 7:56I would say the first episode is the
- 7:58worst of the mass.
- 7:59And yeah, and then it gets better.
- 8:03On the first episode,
- 8:03I just want to punch everybody.
- 8:05Okay.
- 8:07And then they get to be a little
- 8:09bit more likable and they introduce some
- 8:11more likable characters after that.
- 8:15I think all I did was get caught
- 8:17up on pit.
- 8:19I'm caught up.
- 8:19That's kind of all I had time for
- 8:21with.
- 8:22watching all the quarterfinals i think lex
- 8:24watches that i don't watch any of these
- 8:27netflix i'm curious where they're going
- 8:31with yeah i don't i don't know and
- 8:33it's it's got to be ending soon right
- 8:35we're at i think there's three left yeah
- 8:39there's are sixteen maybe there's four
- 8:40left i don't know three or four left
- 8:42yeah not a lot i don't know
- 8:46Um, Grace is fifteen forty.
- 8:48Highly recommend Project Hail Mary.
- 8:50Both the book and the movie are great.
- 8:52So I read the book.
- 8:54Um, I haven't seen the movie yet.
- 8:56Usually I'm thoroughly disappointed if
- 8:58I've read the book.
- 8:58Yeah.
- 8:59And then go watch the movie.
- 9:01So, um, but for people who don't know,
- 9:04it's the same writer who wrote The
- 9:05Martian.
- 9:05Okay.
- 9:07Which became the movie with Matt Damon.
- 9:08Yep.
- 9:11Um,
- 9:12And the book, it really starts,
- 9:14it takes a couple chapters just to realize
- 9:16what's going on.
- 9:20But it was a really, really good book.
- 9:22And I'm fearful of watching the movie.
- 9:28Apparently it's good.
- 9:33It's a pretty good adaptation.
- 9:35Ryan Gosling is, of course, wonderful.
- 9:37He is a good actor.
- 9:38He doesn't do a lot for me,
- 9:40but more power to you.
- 9:42He's a good actor.
- 9:45Yeah.
- 9:46With or without his shirt?
- 9:47Speaking of with or without the shirt,
- 9:54did you guys take the time to watch
- 9:56Justin stand up?
- 9:58I have not yet.
- 10:01He does it shirtless because he's a
- 10:03CrossFitter.
- 10:03That's how he started.
- 10:06But the best joke of the night was
- 10:08when the MC came back on stage after
- 10:11he was done and she ripped her shirt
- 10:13off.
- 10:16And that was hilarious.
- 10:21That's awesome.
- 10:21Yeah.
- 10:22I'm going to have to watch it.
- 10:22Kudos to him.
- 10:23Like,
- 10:23that's got to be so hard to go
- 10:24up there and talk for, like, he did,
- 10:26what, five, seven minutes at least?
- 10:28Jeez.
- 10:29The YouTube is nine,
- 10:31so there's a little introduction to that.
- 10:35So probably seven.
- 10:36You're probably right.
- 10:37Yeah.
- 10:38That's crazy.
- 10:40I mean,
- 10:41I wouldn't buy tickets to go see him.
- 10:43No.
- 10:45But he tried hard,
- 10:46and he's just such a good sport.
- 10:48Like, he's just...
- 10:52That whole show is so good.
- 10:55Just the whole boys.
- 10:57They all have different things that they
- 10:59can bring.
- 10:59Yeah.
- 11:01What I did like about the jokes and
- 11:03what is good about comedy is there has
- 11:05to be a hint of truth.
- 11:08And so we brought up real,
- 11:09if you follow The Boys Interrupted,
- 11:12real situations that have occurred and
- 11:15made them into the joke.
- 11:18which I thought was,
- 11:19at least he did that.
- 11:20And so if you're a fan of their
- 11:22show and a fan of him,
- 11:24you would get some of the jokes.
- 11:26His timing, I would give a C,
- 11:28but it was his first time and he
- 11:30was really nervous.
- 11:31The joke writing wasn't bad.
- 11:34The timing and the delivery weren't top.
- 11:39A little cringy at times,
- 11:43but he's a good sport.
- 11:47Um, Fergie's question of the week, Jamie,
- 11:51would you rather go head to head against
- 11:53Colton in a live stream quarterfinal or
- 11:55lose to Scott in the bracket challenge?
- 11:59Uh, for sure.
- 12:00Go head to head.
- 12:01Cool.
- 12:01I mean, I'm losing either way.
- 12:03At least I get to work out next
- 12:04school and for sure work out next school.
- 12:08And you guys are the same height.
- 12:11Yeah, I'd say we are probably very equal.
- 12:17You might be taller, aren't you?
- 12:19I'm five, four.
- 12:20So, okay.
- 12:23I think that's similar.
- 12:23You're five, four.
- 12:25Yeah.
- 12:25What do you think?
- 12:25I was thinking you're taller.
- 12:27I'm not.
- 12:29I didn't think you were that tall.
- 12:32Maybe I'm five, three.
- 12:32I could be shrinking.
- 12:33I don't know.
- 12:36When you're five,
- 12:37eleven at a CrossFit event,
- 12:38everybody looks small.
- 12:40Yeah.
- 12:41Except for Hopper and Pepper and Sprig.
- 12:46Um,
- 12:48so Terry said his last minute was pretty
- 12:53good.
- 12:54I thought he got rolling more towards the
- 12:56end of, but yeah, for sure.
- 13:01Um,
- 13:02the thing about the foot guy in the
- 13:04DMS and the one about always wanting a
- 13:06gay fan were pretty funny.
- 13:08Um,
- 13:11The fact that he brought in Dallin selling
- 13:12his underwear and James doing Grace naked,
- 13:17I thought were the funny parts.
- 13:24So there's that.
- 13:27What else do we have here?
- 13:31That's about it.
- 13:32So let's get into quarterfinals.
- 13:33They were everywhere.
- 13:36Okay.
- 13:39Carolyn went into her cave.
- 13:40Jamie did give me the opportunity to see
- 13:42all of hers.
- 13:44Um, which was awesome.
- 13:47I really enjoyed it.
- 13:48She had great music playlists.
- 13:51So I was listening to,
- 13:53I don't even know what was on.
- 13:55We were at not our own,
- 13:56not our own gym.
- 13:57So I don't know.
- 14:00So it all just depends on my mood,
- 14:02but she had one of the workouts she
- 14:04did.
- 14:06was like hip-hop yeah um and i was
- 14:10really getting into that i was singing
- 14:13along the entire time um but i got
- 14:17to watch all of hers i got to
- 14:19watch some of corey's um of course people
- 14:22put them out on the internet we're gonna
- 14:23talk about that in a second so how
- 14:25did you feel your quarterfinals weekend
- 14:27went um
- 14:33I mean,
- 14:33I feel like it was smoother for us
- 14:36as a, as a group, like my group,
- 14:38our gym, um,
- 14:40shout out to Braveheart local CrossFit gym
- 14:42near us.
- 14:43They were, it was,
- 14:47they were extremely accommodating and like
- 14:49brought back my faith in humanity a little
- 14:51bit.
- 14:51Like we were very welcomed.
- 14:53We were given generous amounts of time in
- 14:57there.
- 14:57I didn't feel like I had two hours
- 14:59to rush in and out.
- 15:00Um, they didn't ask for a thing.
- 15:04Um, yeah, they were great.
- 15:05You did not have a great experience.
- 15:07Had a great experience.
- 15:09Yeah.
- 15:09But last year you didn't have a great
- 15:11experience.
- 15:12Yeah.
- 15:12I mean, you're semifinal, right?
- 15:14Yeah.
- 15:15Like having to find somewhere to go,
- 15:17not feeling welcome at places or not being
- 15:19welcome at places and that,
- 15:21or having to drive two hours, um,
- 15:25you know, pay in,
- 15:26I I'm fine with pain.
- 15:28I, she didn't ask for anything,
- 15:29but I still gave her money.
- 15:30Um, but yeah,
- 15:32being like nickel and dimed over the whole
- 15:34situation sort of sucks when it's like,
- 15:36you're already paying,
- 15:37you're paying to travel,
- 15:37you're paying to compete in this comp.
- 15:40There's,
- 15:41I'm trying to coordinate four or five,
- 15:42six people.
- 15:45It worked really,
- 15:46really great this time around.
- 15:48And we got,
- 15:49and I would like go work out with
- 15:51Terry, Ronica and myself, Emma,
- 15:54one of our teens.
- 15:54And then I'd get back home for the
- 15:56six PM class.
- 15:58And we had six people,
- 16:00five or six boys who qualified who didn't
- 16:02want to pay because they were like seventy
- 16:04six percentile.
- 16:05They just wanted to do them together.
- 16:07So I ran that group at six p.m.
- 16:10Thursday, Friday,
- 16:11and then they all came with us on
- 16:14Saturday.
- 16:15And so we actually got to like be
- 16:16together for one and they got to see
- 16:19some of us do them.
- 16:19It was just it was it felt like
- 16:21a closer community this time.
- 16:23I enjoyed the experience.
- 16:25Carolyn.
- 16:27Yeah.
- 16:28Uh, we,
- 16:28we did them like the classes also pro
- 16:31like I programmed them for the,
- 16:32for the classes throughout the week,
- 16:33just cause there was like,
- 16:34we could scale all of those anyways.
- 16:36Like I'll probably do the same thing for
- 16:37semifinals if they get released early.
- 16:39Yep.
- 16:39Like, and just do a intermediate version,
- 16:42a skilled version of them.
- 16:44Um, yeah, I mean, it was a good,
- 16:47good community feel all weekend.
- 16:49Uh, a lot of support, um,
- 16:53the workouts itself.
- 16:55I did them.
- 16:57I did.
- 16:58What order did you pick?
- 16:58I started with four.
- 17:00So I was going to start with four
- 17:02and I kind of wish I did.
- 17:04Um,
- 17:04but I started with one because I was
- 17:06worried about the overhead squats.
- 17:08Um,
- 17:08and I just wanted to do them without
- 17:11any extra like fatigue on my shoulder.
- 17:14So I did that one first.
- 17:15I did one, four,
- 17:16I did four and three back to back.
- 17:20And then I did two,
- 17:22I thought two would be like the hardest
- 17:24and wreck me.
- 17:26And I don't, it didn't really,
- 17:28I was surprised.
- 17:30I honestly, yeah.
- 17:31Like I,
- 17:32so we'll talk about that something after,
- 17:33but I did four first.
- 17:35Yeah.
- 17:35Then I did three,
- 17:36which so four was the rolling one to
- 17:38me that I wanted to start with my
- 17:39weakest one, which is handstand pushups,
- 17:41strict handstand pushups.
- 17:42So I want to do that one.
- 17:44The most fresh.
- 17:45Then I went into the deadlifts.
- 17:46I mean,
- 17:47I'm going to call it a double under
- 17:48workout.
- 17:49Um,
- 17:50because of the high execution needed on
- 17:52that.
- 17:53Yes.
- 17:53Um,
- 17:55the following day I did just workout
- 17:59number one.
- 17:59Okay.
- 18:00And then yesterday I finished with workout
- 18:03number two.
- 18:04At no point this weekend that I feel
- 18:06super sore.
- 18:08Did I feel anything different?
- 18:12Like sometimes in prior years,
- 18:14like workout three, like the deadlift one,
- 18:18felt like one of the easier workouts I've
- 18:20done in general,
- 18:22any qualifier or anything.
- 18:25I don't double under fast at all.
- 18:26So like it's not going to be competitive.
- 18:29I still tripped up twice.
- 18:31The rest was like on the very first
- 18:33trip.
- 18:34But like,
- 18:34I don't have the ability to just pick
- 18:35up the rope and go right away.
- 18:37Like some people do like,
- 18:39I have to like pick up the rope,
- 18:40do a single seat and get into my
- 18:42double.
- 18:43Um, so, but like that one,
- 18:45just like how fast can you double under
- 18:46to me?
- 18:47Yep.
- 18:47Um,
- 18:49the deadlifts are just like an
- 18:50afterthought.
- 18:52Um,
- 18:53Workout one.
- 18:55I wish I could have done a different
- 18:57strategy.
- 18:58I did the like if I were to
- 19:01if I had redone that one,
- 19:03which I want to do today,
- 19:05but I didn't.
- 19:06I considered redoing that one today, too.
- 19:09So I think I could have pushed the
- 19:11road just a little bit more.
- 19:12Oh,
- 19:13I would have done singles for the row.
- 19:17Oh, yeah.
- 19:18I would have done singles on the clean
- 19:19and jerk.
- 19:20I opened up with like a set of
- 19:21like, I don't know, maybe nine or ten.
- 19:23And then I went to another small set
- 19:25and then I finished with a bunch of
- 19:26singles.
- 19:27And I think it like got my heart
- 19:28rate up way too much for the second
- 19:30row.
- 19:31Yeah.
- 19:32And also blew up my arms a little
- 19:34bit more than I wanted to.
- 19:36Um,
- 19:36so I think I would have done a
- 19:37different strategy there.
- 19:39Uh, the deadlift one,
- 19:41I'm pretty happy with my execution on
- 19:42double unders.
- 19:43Like that's pretty good for me to go
- 19:45unbroken.
- 19:45I mean, I missed two of them,
- 19:47like on the first rep,
- 19:48but like still unbroken.
- 19:49I'll take that any day.
- 19:51Yeah.
- 19:51Um, number one, the sprint one,
- 19:53I went too slow on the first part.
- 19:56I think like I shouldn't listen to as
- 19:58many people online because like everyone
- 19:59was talking about, you know,
- 20:02pace yourself a little bit for the second
- 20:03part.
- 20:04But like I was almost fifteen,
- 20:05twenty seconds faster on the second part
- 20:06than the first.
- 20:07Wow.
- 20:08I didn't see I overpaced the first part.
- 20:10That's crazy.
- 20:12I was very similar.
- 20:13It was still hard like this,
- 20:14like the sprint at the end.
- 20:16But I just I finished wanting I finished
- 20:19and I was like.
- 20:21Damn,
- 20:21I could have I could have gone just
- 20:23I should have red line and just see
- 20:25if I can hold on.
- 20:27And then I almost felt the same way
- 20:29on event two.
- 20:32I felt like I perfectly paced it,
- 20:34but I was slow on my transition,
- 20:36like walking, went to the bar,
- 20:38walked nice and slow.
- 20:42And at no point did I feel like
- 20:43I was going to miss a dumbbell,
- 20:45miss a bar muscle-up at zero point.
- 20:48But on the fourth to last rep of
- 20:50my hang squat clean, I felt a little...
- 20:53tiny little pop thingy on my hamstring.
- 20:56So I finished the last three reps,
- 20:58but like after I was like, okay,
- 21:00no more redos this week.
- 21:01So thankfully it was my last workout and
- 21:03I finished it and like, I'm good.
- 21:07Um, but I, I wanted,
- 21:09my ego wants to redo, especially like,
- 21:10especially the handstand pushup one.
- 21:12I want,
- 21:12I wanted to retry the burpee one with
- 21:14like a more reckless pace,
- 21:16but at the end of the day,
- 21:18it's just not worth it right now.
- 21:21Right.
- 21:22Because I already have both of my
- 21:23semifinals places.
- 21:24Right.
- 21:25You'll be safely in the top two thousand.
- 21:27They're very, very safely.
- 21:28Right.
- 21:29Yeah.
- 21:29So like it doesn't matter.
- 21:31It's just like I I always like doing
- 21:33online competitions and I like redoing.
- 21:36I like any time I sign up and
- 21:38I put my name on a leaderboard that's
- 21:39going to stick forever.
- 21:40Like I want to leave that weekend knowing
- 21:42that I did everything I could to maximize
- 21:45my score.
- 21:46I fight for every second.
- 21:47I fight for every rep of every competition
- 21:49that I can do if I have a
- 21:50chance to do it multiple times.
- 21:52and i'm like mad that like i won't
- 21:54get that chance this weekend but i still
- 21:56think it's fine yeah yeah i'm really happy
- 22:02with my double under one the deadlift
- 22:04double under one are you unbroken yeah i
- 22:07had one trip to to like pick up
- 22:10the road it's always the first one i
- 22:11know and then other than that yeah even
- 22:13the deadlifts which is good for me which
- 22:16workout did you enjoy the most
- 22:21Probably the bar muscle up one.
- 22:22I don't know.
- 22:23Maybe the double under one.
- 22:23Because it was the shortest.
- 22:26Like.
- 22:27But.
- 22:28I just wish I.
- 22:30I think I was like.
- 22:33Overly.
- 22:36Like I put.
- 22:37I don't know.
- 22:37I was nervous about number two.
- 22:40The bar muscle up one.
- 22:41Thinking it was going to be so awful.
- 22:44And I. Everyone was like so grippy.
- 22:46Yeah.
- 22:46And like.
- 22:48I mean, don't get me wrong.
- 22:49It got grippy at the end.
- 22:50Like, I, like, saved, like...
- 22:52But at no point...
- 22:55I think I overthought like I psyched
- 22:57myself for something way worse way worse
- 23:00same and I think I was like overly
- 23:02cautious with like pacing back and forth
- 23:05um I just I saved like twenty four
- 23:08cleans at the end so of course those
- 23:10get grippy at the end but I think
- 23:13I honestly almost think I could have like
- 23:15should have done forty bar muscle ups and
- 23:17eighty cleans and just I think I could
- 23:20have done something like that too um
- 23:22not unbroken but jamie on that one when
- 23:24i was watching it she was so calm
- 23:26and cool throughout the whole thing like
- 23:28it didn't seem like there was a sense
- 23:30of urgency ever because i didn't have i
- 23:33didn't know i didn't have a clock that
- 23:35i could see so i didn't even know
- 23:36the time and i was like
- 23:38I didn't have anyone like I sort of
- 23:41had a somewhat of a plan, but again,
- 23:44because I thought the workout was gonna be
- 23:45so awful.
- 23:45I had the, I had it broken down.
- 23:47I think into three, six, once I did,
- 23:48I was doing, I did like and then,
- 23:51and then I was going to do a
- 23:52bunch of three, six.
- 23:53And I was like, that's dumb.
- 23:55I feel fine.
- 23:56Like, again,
- 23:57I think I just gave the workout too
- 23:59much.
- 24:00Like,
- 24:01I just thought it was gonna be worse.
- 24:02And I was like,
- 24:03I need to do more than this.
- 24:04This is, this is a dumb plan.
- 24:05But yes, I, I did overpace it, Scott.
- 24:07Like I got,
- 24:09I'm not even like a little bit sore
- 24:10from it.
- 24:11And I'm like, oh,
- 24:11I didn't go hard enough.
- 24:12Oh, well.
- 24:14Shannon Schleifer says that's what she
- 24:16did.
- 24:18Yeah, I don't know is what it is.
- 24:20I'm not, I'm not, I mean,
- 24:22I don't really have the luxury of redoing
- 24:23them.
- 24:24I would also like to kind of redo
- 24:25the row one and push the row pace
- 24:27and the clean and jerks a little more,
- 24:29but it is just, I just,
- 24:31I don't have dirty strips unbroken,
- 24:33like a lot of the top end athletes.
- 24:36I need to get to the wall faster.
- 24:38If I'm going to get,
- 24:39if I'm going to do it in multiple
- 24:40sets,
- 24:41I just got to get there faster and
- 24:43it's going to,
- 24:43my handstand pushups will be the same,
- 24:45I think regardless.
- 24:46But if I could,
- 24:48be a little bit better on the bar
- 24:50and push the row a little bit more.
- 24:53I should.
- 24:54Yeah.
- 24:54Like that, that one.
- 24:56Yeah.
- 24:57That one will push me back a little
- 24:58bit, but the other three,
- 24:59I think I have good scores,
- 25:03but I would have wanted this.
- 25:05I would have wanted this still redo.
- 25:07We'll see where it shakes out.
- 25:10It is what it is.
- 25:10I'm, I mean, like, I just can't put,
- 25:13I could barely overhead squat.
- 25:14That wasn't, was rough on me.
- 25:16So it's like for,
- 25:18to redo anything is like, for what?
- 25:20Like,
- 25:20I'm not even sure if there's heavy
- 25:21snatches in the semifinals.
- 25:23I don't even think I'm going to be
- 25:23able to do it.
- 25:26So my next question is like, for me,
- 25:28it was like, yeah, I don't need to,
- 25:29I already have my semis.
- 25:32Yeah.
- 25:32I just need to be healthy.
- 25:33Like, and I've never, like,
- 25:34I've never had anything like an injury
- 25:36really knock on wood.
- 25:38And like,
- 25:39I was struggling to walk yesterday,
- 25:40but it's much better today.
- 25:41I can like walk normal and there's no
- 25:43bruising.
- 25:43So I was like, thanks.
- 25:45So we're good.
- 25:46So we've been kind of talking all week
- 25:48about everybody criticizing the test.
- 25:51Was it enough?
- 25:52Is it enough?
- 25:53And I came to the realization as a
- 25:55spectator,
- 25:56because I'm not an elite athlete,
- 25:58is when I watch sports,
- 26:00you are given a season.
- 26:03And your opponents may be good, bad,
- 26:05or indifferent throughout the season.
- 26:07You just have to take on what is
- 26:09put in front of you.
- 26:10And if you win that challenge throughout
- 26:13the year, you become the fittest on earth.
- 26:16Right.
- 26:18But I want to ask you guys,
- 26:20do you feel like after you've done all
- 26:22four workouts, those four together,
- 26:25did you feel like it was a good
- 26:26test to move on in the season?
- 26:32I think it's a fine test for
- 26:34quarterfinals.
- 26:35I don't think it's a full test.
- 26:37And we've said this again,
- 26:39we talk about this every week and we've
- 26:40said it a lot.
- 26:41If it,
- 26:42if you could combine over the course,
- 26:44I think then you'd have a really
- 26:46well-rounded test.
- 26:47I think they were good tests.
- 26:48I think the top two thousand is kind
- 26:50of no question.
- 26:52Do I wish there was videos?
- 26:53Yes.
- 26:53Do I think there's a lot of stuff
- 26:54here that could be skirted a little bit,
- 26:58but yeah, I think they were,
- 26:59I think they were good workouts.
- 27:02You have to really want to hurt on
- 27:04the shuttle one.
- 27:06Like,
- 27:06you have to be proficient at burpees and
- 27:09quick cycle of overhead squats.
- 27:11Yeah.
- 27:13That one was that my heart rate got
- 27:15to two hundred and ten in that workout.
- 27:17One hundred seventy five and all the other
- 27:18workouts.
- 27:19Wow.
- 27:19Just fine.
- 27:20I felt like that workout was awful.
- 27:23And people saying that that needed to be
- 27:24heavier, like for what?
- 27:26So that you can slow everything down
- 27:28again.
- 27:28Like, I don't like that argument.
- 27:29Like it was it was good.
- 27:32And it would have stopped fifty year olds
- 27:34even from even being able to really do
- 27:36it.
- 27:39Yeah, two ten is crazy.
- 27:40I thought I was dying in that one.
- 27:43I don't think I've ever had a two
- 27:45pen heart rate.
- 27:46And I told the,
- 27:48one of the guys who didn't sign up
- 27:49that was doing them.
- 27:49I told him that I was like,
- 27:51that was the worst workout.
- 27:52And he has got to two Oh one
- 27:54in that workout.
- 27:54I have heart issues and I haven't hit
- 27:58two hundred.
- 28:01No, I think,
- 28:01I think the test was fine for quarters.
- 28:04You know,
- 28:05I saw a lot of people try to
- 28:06get a first trick, a handstand pushup.
- 28:08I saw people, you know,
- 28:11struggling on the bar muscle ups like that
- 28:13combo.
- 28:14And like that was challenging.
- 28:16And the weights,
- 28:17the double dumbbell was challenging for
- 28:19people.
- 28:20It's not a movement that they necessarily
- 28:22do very often.
- 28:23So they had to adapt.
- 28:24Then the overhead squat put people in
- 28:26challenging position mobility wise,
- 28:28whether it was ankle, hips, shoulders.
- 28:31So even though the weight may have not
- 28:33been super high for the high end,
- 28:36it was good enough for the twenty five
- 28:38percent.
- 28:40um and allowed for people to kind of
- 28:42separate their um on like their mobility
- 28:46and like a basic strength there yeah um
- 28:53there were a ton of live streams this
- 28:54weekend tons that was awesome it was it
- 29:01was really hard to like keep up with
- 29:02all of them and i don't think i
- 29:04got them all and and i did see
- 29:06jeremy say earlier in the chat like
- 29:08You know, the Glintons doing, like,
- 29:10average...
- 29:12Like average Joes,
- 29:13like Joseph Ramirez who's in our chat.
- 29:15Average Joes out there giving it a shot
- 29:18on quarterfinals, right?
- 29:20I thought that was great.
- 29:21And I've made the comment and they've
- 29:22shared the reels and that for someone
- 29:25who's...
- 29:26Like I'm having a medical condition where
- 29:28I can't be at a gym.
- 29:30It gave me the feeling of being part
- 29:31of a community during quarterfinals and
- 29:34being able to root people on.
- 29:36And I thought that was really cool.
- 29:38And even like...
- 29:40You know,
- 29:40I'm friends with Fi and getting to watch
- 29:42Fi do the workouts and cheer her on
- 29:44was really cool.
- 29:45You sending me yours and getting to watch
- 29:47those.
- 29:48Corey sending me his and watching his.
- 29:50That was tremendous this weekend.
- 29:53The fact that CrossFit on Friday showed
- 29:56three workouts was awesome.
- 29:59If I had one criticism, it'd be,
- 30:01give us more.
- 30:02Yeah.
- 30:03Yeah.
- 30:04Like,
- 30:05you could have done a short Saturday show
- 30:07and a short Sunday show and made it
- 30:10a full weekend of – and it only
- 30:12needed to be two or three people.
- 30:16You didn't need to go, like,
- 30:18ham on it.
- 30:19Just a couple people.
- 30:22But I thought it was tremendous.
- 30:24And to witness Tudor's deadlift double
- 30:27under workout –
- 30:30Was incredible because I dare you to find
- 30:34one rep that wasn't right.
- 30:36He moved really.
- 30:37I was skeptical at first.
- 30:39Like I saw the time and I'm like,
- 30:40oh, come on.
- 30:42His were the best deadlifts I saw out
- 30:44of almost.
- 30:46Honestly,
- 30:46I think out of anyone doing that workout.
- 30:50Like,
- 30:50and I know he's had questionable reps in
- 30:52the past.
- 30:53Some of his stuff that has been reviewed
- 30:55has been, he's gotten penalties.
- 30:57He moved really well.
- 31:00He doesn't even like leave the ground.
- 31:01I don't even understand how he is getting
- 31:03that rope around twice.
- 31:04That couldn't be a better workout for him
- 31:06too.
- 31:06Like he is probably the fastest and best
- 31:11athlete that we have on double unders or
- 31:12one of them anyways.
- 31:14And probably within the top,
- 31:19you know,
- 31:19a little bit with the deadlift cycle speed
- 31:21and strength.
- 31:22So you put that combo together and like,
- 31:24you knew it was going to be maybe
- 31:27a world record time.
- 31:28We don't know.
- 31:28We'll see on Monday, but like,
- 31:30it was like, yep.
- 31:33The problem with a lot of the deadlifts
- 31:34is when people look down and allow their
- 31:36shoulders, like you have to look forward.
- 31:39Yeah.
- 31:39The moment you start looking down and your
- 31:42shoulders come forward,
- 31:43it never looks good.
- 31:45Like people have to start looking,
- 31:48just looking forward, like hit your spot.
- 31:51Cause the moment you do this, it just,
- 31:53it never looks an issue.
- 31:54You look at the shoulders are in front
- 31:55of the bar.
- 31:56Yeah.
- 31:56Even though your legs are extended,
- 31:57your hips can be extended.
- 31:59The fact that you're looking down and your
- 32:02shoulders are internally wrote rotated,
- 32:04never looks good for a rep.
- 32:05Yeah.
- 32:06Yeah.
- 32:06They don't.
- 32:07If you don't like stand up, squeeze.
- 32:09Yeah.
- 32:10Like literally like chest up.
- 32:13Like it's not necessarily like the best
- 32:14thing to do, but it looks the cleanest.
- 32:17Trey and Olive,
- 32:18he levitates double unders.
- 32:20I just wish I could look like that
- 32:21doing double unders.
- 32:25Yeah, it was amazing.
- 32:25There were so many amazing performances.
- 32:27Watching Colton do so many.
- 32:30And for Proven to allow that to happen,
- 32:33like kudos to them.
- 32:36Fi doing every workout.
- 32:38If you wouldn't have told me that Fi
- 32:40had a shoulder injury,
- 32:43I wouldn't have known.
- 32:45I think she's pretty much at a hundred.
- 32:46She was like at ninety five percent.
- 32:48Yeah.
- 32:49She was like, she's healthy.
- 32:50She just needs to get the volume back.
- 32:53And like when you come from like her
- 32:54fitness.
- 32:56background of crossfit like it's not going
- 32:58to take her very long to get back
- 33:02like she hasn't lost her fitness
- 33:03throughout this whole injury like she has
- 33:05a lot of built-in fitness it just might
- 33:07be a little bit of the stamina on
- 33:10some of the movements may not fully be
- 33:11there for her but if she's like healthy
- 33:14now like she'll do the online semis and
- 33:17i wouldn't be surprised if she gets a
- 33:18spot there
- 33:20The one thing that I did notice a
- 33:22lot and included her is on the dumbbell
- 33:26squat clean workout with the bar muscle
- 33:28ups.
- 33:29So many people on the very last rep
- 33:30of dumbbell squat cleans bobbled or did
- 33:34some,
- 33:34she got buried in the bottom of the
- 33:36squat and I wasn't sure she was going
- 33:38to recover.
- 33:40And get out of it.
- 33:41Colton almost lost one off to the side
- 33:44on the last rep.
- 33:45It's like you're hurrying so fast to get
- 33:48that last rep done that you lose focus
- 33:51for just that split second.
- 33:52And it shows you it can go terribly
- 33:54wrong.
- 33:56Yeah.
- 33:57Especially under fatigue at that point.
- 33:59Mm-hmm.
- 34:02Any other performances you saw that I did?
- 34:05I did think it was an interesting concept.
- 34:07The boys interrupted doing four separate
- 34:11strategies and then all finishing within
- 34:15like thirteen seconds of each other.
- 34:16I think less than ten seconds.
- 34:21Like that was such a cool watch.
- 34:24If you're like a fan of CrossFit,
- 34:27it was beautiful.
- 34:29It was just beautiful because you're like,
- 34:32you could pick any athlete and just,
- 34:33just look at that.
- 34:34Like you could rewatch that video so many
- 34:36times and just watch every single athlete
- 34:38go about their own strategy and how that
- 34:41played out.
- 34:43That was awesome.
- 34:44Do you think that would be a cool
- 34:45concept just for like,
- 34:48it's November and we're going to put three
- 34:51athletes up.
- 34:51They all have to do the workout in
- 34:53a different rep scheme and see who comes
- 34:56out at the,
- 34:57at the end and take your bet on
- 34:58what rep scheme is going to be the
- 35:00best one.
- 35:02I think that those would be cool.
- 35:04Like a cool different way to show off
- 35:06the sport.
- 35:06As long as you have similar fitness
- 35:08people,
- 35:09because that's the thing that like,
- 35:11that's why those four athletes could
- 35:13compare that one is because their fitness
- 35:14are all relatively close and,
- 35:18so it's like pretty even,
- 35:20but if you do different strategies,
- 35:21but someone's just a little bit better,
- 35:23one strategy can overtake the other,
- 35:25but not necessarily a better strategy just
- 35:26because that person is just naturally fit.
- 35:29But here, like all four, you know,
- 35:32are top of the game right now.
- 35:34And good.
- 35:35Like Justin,
- 35:36Justin wants to get to the floor.
- 35:37I think this weekend,
- 35:40good bounce back for him after you have
- 35:42a comment to yourself.
- 35:44I'll keep it to myself.
- 35:49I just feel like his movement was the
- 35:52most questionable when I watched them.
- 35:54On the deadlift?
- 35:56Deadlift and on the squat cleans.
- 36:00Speaking of events that were live streamed
- 36:03this weekend,
- 36:04did you guys catch Ariel's reel?
- 36:08Oh, yes.
- 36:09This was hilarious.
- 36:12She's so good with her reels.
- 36:13Dude,
- 36:13what happened to your problem lately?
- 36:18Really?
- 36:21Does this ring a bell?
- 36:33Oh yeah.
- 36:34That was a good call.
- 36:35He's sleeping on the couch for a week.
- 36:37Oh, having to no rep your wife.
- 36:41It's live.
- 36:42Like you had no choice.
- 36:44You're going to go live and you don't
- 36:45make the call.
- 36:45He's going to get like buried.
- 36:49by people yeah i also wanted to show
- 36:53this uh the cf network put this up
- 36:55as the top scores from the weekend as
- 36:58they knew them at this time six hours
- 37:01ago um so workout one uh colton crushed
- 37:07at this point five forty four um fee
- 37:10with the six thirteen well that's it's off
- 37:13there but anyway uh justin six oh four
- 37:17hopper six oh nine
- 37:19James Sprague, six, twelve.
- 37:21Workout two, Colton again, seven, sixteen.
- 37:26Workout three, Tudor with the sub four.
- 37:29I was shocked Justin went four, oh, three.
- 37:33Well.
- 37:34But then we go back to Jamie's previous
- 37:36comment.
- 37:38I mean, his double unders,
- 37:41his double unders speed is really good.
- 37:43And I think that was where most of
- 37:44the time was, obviously.
- 37:46Like,
- 37:47you just have to be really clean there.
- 37:49And then work out for Colton with the
- 37:51best time on that one as well.
- 37:54Do you think because Justin's the closest
- 37:56to the camera that he had the worst
- 37:58reps?
- 37:59If we saw Dallin and Hopper from the
- 38:01back, if we saw more of them?
- 38:05Well, I don't think he was the closest.
- 38:06It was just the easiest to see.
- 38:07He wasn't the closest.
- 38:08We barely saw the two at the back
- 38:10do any deadlifts.
- 38:13Yeah, maybe we can see the angle.
- 38:16I know they switched the angle on the
- 38:18double one a couple of times.
- 38:20Yeah.
- 38:21And I felt the same way from both
- 38:24angles.
- 38:24So, um, yeah, yes,
- 38:27there could always be a camera angle
- 38:29issue.
- 38:30Um, so that's,
- 38:33that's fair statement on the deadlift one.
- 38:37I hate judging squats from the front.
- 38:42Yes.
- 38:42Yes.
- 38:43I hate it.
- 38:44And on that squat clean muscle-up one,
- 38:47there's no way to tell the depth of
- 38:48that squat from the front.
- 38:50You're really just guessing.
- 38:53And so it makes it hard.
- 38:55But I saw they all had other videographers
- 38:59doing independent footage of their run.
- 39:03So, I don't know.
- 39:06I really wish that workout four would have
- 39:11been...
- 39:13wall walk complexes i hate that arm length
- 39:19plays such a role in that workout like
- 39:23if you think about like colton's handstand
- 39:25push-ups compared to jason's or dylan's
- 39:27like i mean you'd almost have to make
- 39:30colton do sixty to their thirty it's the
- 39:33it's the distance travel like if you had
- 39:34to do a wall walk into a hand
- 39:36wall face handstand push-up every time at
- 39:38least they both have to travel in and
- 39:40out
- 39:41like,
- 39:42I just that row is meters doesn't offset.
- 39:45Yeah, there's no because like,
- 39:47even if you're smaller,
- 39:48let's say you go five or ten seconds
- 39:50slower per five hundred.
- 39:51It's not huge.
- 39:53Yeah, I just I,
- 39:55I don't love strict handstand push ups for
- 39:57that issue.
- 39:59I mean,
- 39:59I know there's tall people have some other
- 40:03strengths and stuff, but like that one,
- 40:07that movement just bothers me.
- 40:08I would have much rather seen a walk
- 40:09complex.
- 40:11Speaking of that, I was watching Pat,
- 40:16Pat that's in the chat, Pat.
- 40:17Okay, not Pat Lange.
- 40:20Not Pat Lange.
- 40:20Pat Lange.
- 40:21Do that workout this morning on the
- 40:23glutes.
- 40:24He's a big dude,
- 40:26and he was ripping off strict handstand
- 40:28pushups.
- 40:28Nice, Pat.
- 40:29It was really, really impressive.
- 40:34It just, I was not what I expected.
- 40:37Surprisingly.
- 40:39Pleasantly surprised.
- 40:41Um,
- 40:41Jenny says Raptus this time has been
- 40:43updated for workout four.
- 40:44She apparently did an extra rep.
- 40:46So time is ten thirty five officially now.
- 40:49Yeah, I was counting that while,
- 40:50while she was doing live and I'm like
- 40:52the fact when you said two more,
- 40:53I was like, that's all I had.
- 40:55And then I saw them talking about it
- 40:56and they were rewatching it.
- 40:57So that, yeah, that makes sense.
- 41:02Vicki wants to know,
- 41:04so then should burpee,
- 41:06no box jump overs be scored,
- 41:08scaled lower because he has to travel
- 41:10higher.
- 41:12Yeah.
- 41:12I mean, that's what I'm saying.
- 41:13There's going to be like offsetting
- 41:14movements.
- 41:15I just feel like that one is so
- 41:17extreme.
- 41:17The strictly insane pushup is so extreme.
- 41:21It's I don't know.
- 41:25That's a tough one.
- 41:28Yeah.
- 41:31Um,
- 41:34We've already had some people withdraw
- 41:35from semifinals that were invited.
- 41:39And so we've been talking about that for
- 41:44a while now,
- 41:45that the invites aren't based on this
- 41:49season.
- 41:50And therefore, I, I will speak for myself,
- 41:53do not believe that is right.
- 41:56You should not be able to advance in
- 41:58a season based on last year's performance.
- 42:01You should have to compete this year to
- 42:03be able to move forward.
- 42:05And we already have Mano Anganese and
- 42:07Ariel Lowen who have withdrawn from
- 42:08Mayhem.
- 42:09And I am sure that's just the start.
- 42:13So my question to you is now that
- 42:15this is starting to happen,
- 42:17do you see a flood of withdrawals coming
- 42:19or do you think it's going to be
- 42:21just a handful?
- 42:24I don't see a flood of withdrawals
- 42:25happening.
- 42:26I think it'll just, yeah,
- 42:27I think it'll just be a few.
- 42:31I think it'll be just a few because
- 42:33people are trying to get into the semis
- 42:34right now.
- 42:35The way that it's set up,
- 42:37once this quarterfinals is done,
- 42:38it's the same people that are going to
- 42:40get asked to go to all of these
- 42:42semifinals that are accepting spots.
- 42:49I think it's crazy that only four out
- 42:51of the ten are not filled right now.
- 42:55All the other ones are basically not using
- 42:59the quarterfinals.
- 43:01That's crazy that everything happened
- 43:03prior.
- 43:03Only four of the ten are using
- 43:05quarterfinals.
- 43:06Yeah, correct.
- 43:07Did I say the opposite?
- 43:09I don't know.
- 43:11Oh, yeah.
- 43:11Only four of the ten are using.
- 43:13And, like,
- 43:13the other ones all had an online
- 43:15competition prior or an invite like Mayhem
- 43:18based off of Leaderboard or –
- 43:21whatnot with points.
- 43:23I think that mayhem has since gone to
- 43:25the open leaderboard for their last couple
- 43:28invites.
- 43:29Cause I think they grabbed some of the
- 43:31top Americans from the open.
- 43:34I believe.
- 43:35And we don't know who's been,
- 43:36who's denied the invite either from them.
- 43:40Cause once the withdrawal happens,
- 43:41they have to go down a list and
- 43:43people have to either accept or deny.
- 43:46And we don't know how far down the
- 43:47list they needed to go.
- 43:48Well, I just think that some,
- 43:49there's no way that they have enough
- 43:51points on the rogue leaderboard because
- 43:53they're just having some people like the
- 43:54last one that they invited.
- 43:56Yeah.
- 43:57Like she would not have many points.
- 43:58She's new.
- 43:59Yeah.
- 43:59So I'm assuming they just grabbed her from
- 44:01the open.
- 44:04Yeah.
- 44:04Newer, I should say.
- 44:05Um,
- 44:07Yeah.
- 44:07But just, it's just crazy.
- 44:09Like if you weren't on the ball of
- 44:11like doing your online qualifiers prior to
- 44:13the open starting and you were like still
- 44:15cruising through your off season,
- 44:17you may have missed your shot to go
- 44:18to an in-person competition this year in
- 44:20the semis,
- 44:21your only shot will now be doing the
- 44:23online semifinals.
- 44:26And that's crazy.
- 44:29Cause there's a lot of people who are
- 44:30extremely good in person who may not excel
- 44:34as much in an online atmosphere than
- 44:38and won't get that chance to compete.
- 44:42I think there's going to be more than
- 44:43a handful of withdrawals,
- 44:45and I think it's due to this.
- 44:46I think people accepted more than they
- 44:48were going to do and waited until we
- 44:51get to this point in the season to
- 44:53figure out which one they're actually
- 44:55going to go to.
- 44:57And two,
- 44:58I think as we get further in the
- 44:59season,
- 44:59people are going to qualify and then
- 45:01withdraw for the future ones that they've
- 45:04already signed up for.
- 45:07or if workouts come out and you know
- 45:11you have no chance at that one and
- 45:12you've accepted two different weekends
- 45:14back to back you're like cancel that one
- 45:16that's not going to be good for me
- 45:17looking at that field I'm going to go
- 45:19here you could do that I think it
- 45:24CrossFit
- 45:25great sports analogy if sometimes feels
- 45:27like opting out of bowl games or load
- 45:30management bs yeah there's nothing more
- 45:32frustrating as a fan of a college football
- 45:34team and half the team opts out of
- 45:36the bowl game to save themselves for the
- 45:38nfl draft like it's not even your team
- 45:41out there competing anymore um uh steven
- 45:49braver steven and in braver
- 45:55I don't know.
- 45:56Stephen Den Braver.
- 45:57I don't know.
- 45:58We'll go with that.
- 45:59Can we please talk about how women get
- 46:01a scale on wobble height target but get
- 46:03to use the same handstand push-up length?
- 46:06It should be smaller, right?
- 46:11You're muted, Jenny.
- 46:11I had a cap in there.
- 46:16This is where I feel like
- 46:19I mean, I get what you're saying, Steven,
- 46:20but there's plenty of women who have...
- 46:23I have longer arms than Colton.
- 46:25I can promise you that.
- 46:27So, no.
- 46:29But what sucks is, like,
- 46:30I think Dave was on the right,
- 46:32or whoever put it into place,
- 46:34was on the right track with that
- 46:36measurement.
- 46:37It just...
- 46:39that wasn't great either,
- 46:40but I feel like there's gotta be,
- 46:43I like the wall walk cause you got
- 46:45to travel and then you do one and
- 46:47you're going to get fatigue if you're
- 46:49shorter and you got to take more steps
- 46:51or if that's a further reach for you
- 46:53than somebody who's here when they start
- 46:55the wall walk.
- 46:56I think it's sort of levels that playing
- 46:58ground a little bit to add the wall
- 47:01walk in.
- 47:02The thing with the wall balls is like
- 47:05four,
- 47:06The vast majority for a big population of
- 47:10the woman in the open, the nine foot,
- 47:14I still think is appropriate in terms of
- 47:16like women are traditionally smaller and
- 47:18will not be as strong.
- 47:21But then at the elite level,
- 47:22at the higher end of the females,
- 47:24that's where like ten foot should be
- 47:26happening.
- 47:27And that's what normally happens when you
- 47:28get to the quarterfinals or semifinals is
- 47:31now you get ten feet for both and
- 47:33it's just twenty fourteen.
- 47:34But I think in the open,
- 47:35I'm OK with the height being nine to
- 47:39be a little bit more inclusive there.
- 47:42The handstand push up line.
- 47:44Yeah, I mean, it's not.
- 47:46great I don't know how to fix it
- 47:48because it definitely is an advantage to
- 47:52someone that can place their hands certain
- 47:54way and then other ones that are like
- 47:56super tall long arms are now very like
- 47:59very much way more narrow hitting like
- 48:02their range of motion um
- 48:06I wish there was a way to travel
- 48:09distance.
- 48:09If you are locked out and you have
- 48:12six inches, you got to do sixty inches.
- 48:17I don't know.
- 48:17Like lunges.
- 48:18If it's twenty-five feet,
- 48:20everyone's got to get through twenty-five
- 48:21feet.
- 48:22I mean, it's impossible.
- 48:24Everyone's going to skirt that somehow,
- 48:26but...
- 48:27But that's why Colton's never finished top
- 48:29ten at the games.
- 48:31On these events where he has an advantage,
- 48:33there are a handful of other events where
- 48:36he has a disadvantage.
- 48:38And that's why it has to be a
- 48:40balance test, right?
- 48:42Yes.
- 48:43It needs to be paired with a tall,
- 48:46favorable movement for sure so that it
- 48:48balances out.
- 48:49Which I think they maybe thought the row,
- 48:51but I don't think that it does because
- 48:53it's meters and they don't get the spread
- 48:55there.
- 48:56Yep.
- 48:57Exactly.
- 49:00Yes,
- 49:01it could have been handstand walk this
- 49:02time instead of the strict handstand
- 49:03pushup.
- 49:04I think that would have been a good,
- 49:05like I said,
- 49:05the wall walk complex or handstand walk.
- 49:09Let's say it's finished with three hundred
- 49:10feet of handstand walking.
- 49:12Yeah, I would have taken that.
- 49:13Yep.
- 49:13I think that would have been a really
- 49:14good test.
- 49:15Cause they like the thirties on that one.
- 49:16You do three hundred feet.
- 49:18You check a box.
- 49:19That's a that's a that's a number that
- 49:20we see often.
- 49:23And if it's less than that,
- 49:25there's not as much separation.
- 49:26But that three hundred is a dense enough
- 49:28number where the speed of your turnaround
- 49:32like is a huge factor.
- 49:33Your shoulder stamina gets tested there
- 49:36and the higher skill.
- 49:38I think that would be good.
- 49:39Yep.
- 49:43I think like, I still think the best,
- 49:45I'm going to go back to,
- 49:46did I just do it?
- 49:47He's he's muted.
- 49:50No, it's happening.
- 49:53I think going back to the season format,
- 49:55I think the best way to do it
- 49:56would be an open.
- 49:58Let's say three weeks for the open.
- 50:00You get a week off and then you
- 50:02get cut.
- 50:03Twenty five percent gets cut.
- 50:04And then it's a continuation on the fifth
- 50:06week and basically quarterfinals.
- 50:08Right.
- 50:08Yeah.
- 50:08Next before test.
- 50:09All of those scores are combined for that
- 50:11test.
- 50:12Everyone has one semifinal regional base,
- 50:14kind of like regionals.
- 50:16If you get a stacked semifinals,
- 50:18it's okay because the open is at the
- 50:20– or the online semifinals is at the
- 50:22end of the season, and it's a catch-all.
- 50:25And if you were in the top whatever
- 50:28percent in the – let's say the
- 50:32quarterfinals or your open quarterfinal,
- 50:35or if you were a certain place away
- 50:38from qualifying from your region –
- 50:42you get automatic to the online last
- 50:44chance qualifier.
- 50:45And it kind of is the catch all
- 50:46at the end.
- 50:47Then you get one semifinal shot in person
- 50:50and then you get your online,
- 50:51not like it doesn't become who has the
- 50:53most money and can spot and can go
- 50:55to all of these places and get sponsors
- 50:57to pay for them.
- 50:57Cause that's what it, that's what it is.
- 50:59That's what it's like.
- 51:00I wish I could do all these comps,
- 51:01but I can't.
- 51:02Yeah.
- 51:03I'm going to try to at school,
- 51:05but yeah.
- 51:05I don't know what they're going to say
- 51:06in this next month.
- 51:09But it just becomes who has more money
- 51:11and who doesn't work versus let's see
- 51:15who's the fittest out of these places.
- 51:17Like one semifinal and then last chance.

- 51:56It pays for the platforms to bring you
- 51:58this awesome entertainment each and every
- 52:01Sunday night.
- 52:02Thanks, Ken.
- 52:05Um,
- 52:08so I missed some of what you were
- 52:10saying, but I get it.
- 52:11I got most of the gist.
- 52:14So, um, are,
- 52:17are we getting the right people to
- 52:18semifinals?
- 52:21If you're not getting through on the top
- 52:23two thousand here,
- 52:24you have no business doing any high skill
- 52:26or higher strength.
- 52:27That doesn't necessarily mean you're going
- 52:29to get to go to an in-person semi.
- 52:32That's true.
- 52:32You get a guaranteed at the online
- 52:34semifinal is what I'm saying.
- 52:36You at least get a further chance in
- 52:38your season.
- 52:38Your season is not over.
- 52:42Yeah, I agree.
- 52:43Then someone brought up that Brooke Wells
- 52:45got a special invite to Syndicate.
- 52:48It wasn't a special invite.
- 52:49It was an invite based on last year's
- 52:52results.
- 52:53However,
- 52:54Syndicate only allows people to compete
- 52:58who are still eligible to gain a
- 53:00qualification spot to the games.
- 53:03So if you've already qualified through
- 53:05another means,
- 53:06you're not allowed to compete at
- 53:07syndicate.
- 53:09If you didn't make the top two thousand,
- 53:11you are not allowed to compete at
- 53:12syndicate.
- 53:13Syndicate has very strict rules because
- 53:16they want it.
- 53:17Then they want to be able to say
- 53:19the podium is going to the games,
- 53:22which I love.
- 53:23I love that, too.
- 53:24I do, too.
- 53:25And nobody's messing up.
- 53:26Someone's not taking points away or
- 53:28messing up a leaderboard in that
- 53:29competition.
- 53:33I love Wilson Park.
- 53:34People go to multiple because it's an
- 53:36opportunity for money.
- 53:38Yeah.
- 53:39Yeah.
- 53:40But I don't think people would burn out
- 53:41as much if they had one there.
- 53:44And then they can do maybe some stuff
- 53:45in the offseason.
- 53:46And those are the big money ones anyways.
- 53:48These semifinals aren't giving that much
- 53:50money.
- 53:50Yeah.
- 53:54So I love that they made that decision
- 53:57because as a fan,
- 53:58you now can look at the leaderboard and
- 54:00know the top three people,
- 54:02that's who's going to the games.
- 54:06Agree.

- 55:05So five lucky listeners.
- 55:06How do you get gifted?
- 55:08So it just randomly picks from the chat.
- 55:10People that don't have it?
- 55:13Correct.
- 55:14So five people.
- 55:16Start writing in the chat.
- 55:20They're going to get a free Clydesdale
- 55:22media membership.
- 55:24Mark, you are the best.
- 55:25You're here every day at lunch.
- 55:27You're here every Sunday night.
- 55:29You are freaking awesome.
- 55:31Love you guys to death.
- 55:32Love every one of you.
- 55:34We have so many members,
- 55:36and I appreciate each and every one of
- 55:37you.
- 55:41Hexy Lover,
- 55:42with all the eyes on impressive live
- 55:43streams,
- 55:44has any news come out about who's
- 55:45streaming, steering the ship?
- 55:50I don't think it matters.
- 55:52I've said this a million times.
- 55:54The CEO is just the face of the
- 55:55board.
- 55:57The board is the one giving the direction.
- 56:00Unless the board says,
- 56:02we are giving you full autonomy to whoever
- 56:05becomes the CEO, none of that matters.
- 56:09And the board are giving the directions.
- 56:11And honestly, right now,
- 56:14They're not doing a bad job.
- 56:16Media,
- 56:17they did live stream live events on
- 56:20Friday.
- 56:21They have promoted the open and
- 56:22quarterfinals better than a lot of people
- 56:25have.
- 56:27A lot of years we have.
- 56:29They're doing an awesome job.
- 56:33So kudos to them.
- 56:35Yeah,
- 56:36they do seem like they've really leaned
- 56:37into the media focus.
- 56:41And we know that they were following the
- 56:42boys this weekend.
- 56:44They were probably elsewhere also.
- 56:47And then they had, yeah,
- 56:48they emailed the previous games athletes,
- 56:50um, this week saying,
- 56:52if you want to hop live on Friday
- 56:54at two o'clock Eastern, I think maybe one,
- 57:00it was like, I don't know, eleven,
- 57:02eleven Pacific time.
- 57:03Let us know.
- 57:04We're going to have people comment, uh,
- 57:06commentating on your, um, event.
- 57:09Um,
- 57:10Yeah,
- 57:11they also emailed us athletes from last
- 57:13year like a code.
- 57:16So like if at checkout you use the
- 57:19code CFG, so CrossFit Games, Prevo,
- 57:23P-R-E-V-O,
- 57:25then I get a kickback of I think
- 57:29it's ten percent.
- 57:30to help fund like my season,
- 57:32hopefully for the game.
- 57:33And they haven't, I don't remember them.
- 57:35I mean,
- 57:35not in the years that I've done, um,
- 57:38them doing that.
- 57:39So each games athlete from last year has
- 57:41a code that can help fund.
- 57:43Hopefully there's,
- 57:44I don't know what happens if that athlete
- 57:46doesn't make it and where that money goes,
- 57:48but feel free to use that code.
- 57:51That's cool.
- 57:52I think you have to buy a three-day
- 57:54ticket throughout the weekend.
- 57:57It's not like a single day.
- 57:58So if you buy a three-day pass,
- 58:01then the athlete would get a kickback.
- 58:06Daniel Arnson,
- 58:07who has paid for it for four ninety
- 58:08nine to tell Mark to pick him when
- 58:11I think it's up to the randomness of
- 58:13YouTube.
- 58:15But thank you very much for the four
- 58:16ninety nine.
- 58:18And Daniel, you become a very
- 58:20frequent listener as well.
- 58:21And we really appreciate you.
- 58:22Thank you so much for that.
- 58:25Um,
- 58:29I think that was also a cool way
- 58:30for CrossFit to give exposure to athletes.
- 58:33Amen.
- 58:34Exactly.
- 58:37Uh, John George, sorry, I'm late.
- 58:38Had to do a couple of crock quarterfinal
- 58:39workouts.
- 58:40One to go, uh, dude,
- 58:42the deadlines like in a couple hours,
- 58:45tomorrow, p.m.
- 58:47He's good.
- 58:49He's got a while.
- 58:51Right up against the deadline, dude.
- 58:52No.
- 58:53You can still get two done tomorrow if
- 58:55you want.
- 58:57Go green, Daniel.
- 58:58For the arsenal of Carolyn's quilted
- 59:00jacket,
- 59:01especially since it's ninety degrees in
- 59:03Orlando this week.
- 59:05Oh, that must be nice.
- 59:08I saw a fun fact.
- 59:09Did you know that fifty percent of
- 59:11Canadians live south of Seattle?
- 59:15Well, I mean, that makes sense.
- 59:17It's the top is not really,
- 59:19it'd be way too cold.
- 59:21I think it's more than I didn't realize
- 59:23that the United States curves up that
- 59:25much.
- 59:25Yeah.
- 59:26Yeah.
- 59:27On the point.
- 59:30Yeah.
- 59:30Like there's some places that are more
- 59:32North in the States than us.
- 59:34I definitely would have,
- 59:36I would have figured that with Maine
- 59:38because Maine goes way up there,
- 59:40but I did not think that for Seattle.
- 59:45No one lives in the place called the
- 59:47Northern Territories.
- 59:49Not without a toque.
- 59:52Not without a toque in the moose.
- 59:57It's ninety degrees in Southern
- 59:59California, too pretty, stinking hot.
- 1:00:03I think it's supposed to get like sixty
- 1:00:05here tomorrow.
- 1:00:06Del Mar,
- 1:00:07is the Legends comp outside or inside?
- 1:00:09I guess I don't even know that.
- 1:00:11It's at the fairgrounds like regionals
- 1:00:13was.
- 1:00:14I don't remember.
- 1:00:15So it's covered.
- 1:00:16Okay.
- 1:00:16But technically,
- 1:00:18I don't think it has any sides.
- 1:00:20Okay.
- 1:00:22So you're saying I should do some sauna
- 1:00:23work and get used to heat?
- 1:00:26Yeah.
- 1:00:34Okay.
- 1:00:34Vicky says, Fergie, shush.
- 1:00:36It was thirty eight degrees here.
- 1:00:39It's actually warming up here.
- 1:00:40We're supposed to be in the seventies
- 1:00:41tomorrow.
- 1:00:45Uh, it's in a horse stall.
- 1:00:49Well,
- 1:00:50I think it's bigger than a horse stall.
- 1:00:51I think it's several horse stalls.
- 1:00:58so yeah but it's you can go back
- 1:01:01and watch the old west regionals i know
- 1:01:03i have to go back and watch some
- 1:01:05of them because i know that bob and
- 1:01:08joe were saying how much they love those
- 1:01:10workouts but aren't they just the right
- 1:01:11same regional workouts from any region
- 1:01:13okay so i don't really need to watch
- 1:01:15the regionals there it's the same workout
- 1:01:19they've probably done many times with some
- 1:01:23twists on it that i'm sure they'll put
- 1:01:26Yes.
- 1:01:26Multiple horse style, horse stalls,
- 1:01:28cross fat.
- 1:01:31Um, yeah.
- 1:01:34And I was actually thinking this,
- 1:01:35just watch the bridges and road to the
- 1:01:37games where Brooke blows up on Mars.
- 1:01:42And it happened in the fairgrounds.
- 1:01:44I think I just watched that, uh,
- 1:01:46when I was doing that,
- 1:01:46I was watching that episode.
- 1:01:49It's a good one.
- 1:01:51Because both of them were supposed to make
- 1:01:52the games and neither one did.
- 1:01:55And it was all caught on camera.
- 1:02:03Kenneth,
- 1:02:03that was more like watching a domestic
- 1:02:04dispute.
- 1:02:05Kind of was.
- 1:02:06That was the start of the fall.
- 1:02:10Yeah, they both seem better for it.
- 1:02:13Yeah, I agree.
- 1:02:19So it's literally on the water.
- 1:02:21So you will get a breeze probably.
- 1:02:28I have a question.
- 1:02:28Were teams doing any of these workouts and
- 1:02:31they don't have a quarterfinals.
- 1:02:33So teams go from the open to an
- 1:02:37in-person semi or an online.
- 1:02:39Do they have an online semi as well?
- 1:02:41Yep.
- 1:02:42Yeah.
- 1:02:42Like six teams or something.
- 1:02:45Okay.
- 1:02:45You only get twenty total.
- 1:02:47Yeah.
- 1:02:48And it's like two from like
- 1:02:50So it's definitely much easier on the
- 1:02:53teams this year.
- 1:02:54They don't have to be together as often.
- 1:02:56Like, really,
- 1:02:56it's just the three weeks of the open
- 1:02:58and two of those almost this year.
- 1:02:59If you were doing a lot of Palooza,
- 1:03:00you had to be together and then in
- 1:03:02person.
- 1:03:03Yep.
- 1:03:06Okay.
- 1:03:08A couple quick hitters before we head out
- 1:03:10of here tonight.
- 1:03:13Haven't talked to you guys since the
- 1:03:14four-year ban came down for cheating.
- 1:03:16Yeah.
- 1:03:18So CrossFit handed out a four-year ban for
- 1:03:22cheating.
- 1:03:23I guess we could consider PEDs cheating.
- 1:03:27So not the first time.
- 1:03:29What are your thoughts on the video
- 1:03:32doctoring getting a four-year ban?
- 1:03:36I mean, it's way more than I expected.
- 1:03:40Yeah, I thought maybe two.
- 1:03:42Before, I was like, damn.
- 1:03:44But that's going to scare people from
- 1:03:46doing that.
- 1:03:46And you know it's happening.
- 1:03:48It has happened before.
- 1:03:52I've always been scared now with AI that
- 1:03:54people will use AI to change things.
- 1:03:58I guess we should have thought that that
- 1:03:59was...
- 1:04:00a possibility with yeah the bachmeyers do
- 1:04:04you really mean other other people have
- 1:04:06gotten this four-year ban before i don't
- 1:04:07know why we didn't think about that um
- 1:04:12it don't yeah i don't know it's i
- 1:04:16appreciate that she i mean i don't even
- 1:04:19know because i don't even know if she
- 1:04:19necessarily i mean she came clean
- 1:04:21obviously but it took multiple stages of
- 1:04:23coming clean like she wasn't gonna come
- 1:04:25clean she's just sorry she got caught
- 1:04:28even in the final coming clean and clean
- 1:04:31more at the end of the beginning.
- 1:04:34Yeah.
- 1:04:34So I feel like,
- 1:04:35I don't think it was a half admission.
- 1:04:39Like it was like the, Oh, I don't,
- 1:04:42I thought,
- 1:04:42I think I use the right weight,
- 1:04:44but you're not letting the barbell drop on
- 1:04:46any point and lowering it with nice and
- 1:04:49control.
- 1:04:50Like, you know,
- 1:04:51when you're using a training bar.
- 1:04:53Oh, for sure.
- 1:04:54Yeah.
- 1:04:55You don't warm up with a ten.
- 1:04:56There's still a lot of things that she
- 1:04:59didn't quite all say.
- 1:05:03What I'm curious about is you're giving a
- 1:05:06four-year ban to a video that she did
- 1:05:09not submit to CrossFit, right?
- 1:05:13This is a video that she gave to
- 1:05:15Hiller.
- 1:05:17No, the original, the first video as well,
- 1:05:20sped up the first video with the clock
- 1:05:23put in with what we think is a
- 1:05:24training bar.
- 1:05:25Yeah.
- 1:05:26What she submitted to CrossFit.
- 1:05:28Cause Hiller pulled that video.
- 1:05:29So that one has a training bar,
- 1:05:32which she technically doesn't admit to in
- 1:05:35her, in her confession.
- 1:05:38Added a clock there,
- 1:05:41but doesn't actually admit to the,
- 1:05:44we know, but yeah.
- 1:05:48We know,
- 1:05:49but there's not a confession that she used
- 1:05:52a light barbell there.
- 1:05:54She did.
- 1:05:55She did confess to it at the end
- 1:05:56of the podcast,
- 1:05:58but said she did it by accident.
- 1:06:00Oh, okay.
- 1:06:04But based off that video, that's what,
- 1:06:06and then she didn't show the weights there
- 1:06:08prior before or after the workout.
- 1:06:11So they had invalidated that score.
- 1:06:15But that score,
- 1:06:15was that one sped up or just the
- 1:06:17clock was added?
- 1:06:18Just the clock was added.
- 1:06:19So really you're giving a four-year ban on
- 1:06:22a video that wasn't her submitted video.
- 1:06:24It's a video that you're giving to Andrew
- 1:06:28Hiller, which is not,
- 1:06:29it's just your proof of your score.
- 1:06:32So the initial submitted video had a
- 1:06:34doctored clock with two light awaits.
- 1:06:38But she didn't admit to that technically.
- 1:06:40We know.
- 1:06:42Yeah,
- 1:06:43but how are they proving that she cheated
- 1:06:47other than having to put a clock in,
- 1:06:50which arguably maybe she did.
- 1:06:51That's what I'm saying.
- 1:06:52She has admitted that it was a trade-off.
- 1:06:54If I'm a lawyer, which I'm not,
- 1:06:56I have a case to defend,
- 1:06:59even though we know.
- 1:07:02And we don't know if CrossFit said, hey...
- 1:07:05We don't believe this video.
- 1:07:07Do you have something to back it up?
- 1:07:09And she submitted a second video.
- 1:07:11True.
- 1:07:11It just never got posted on the website.
- 1:07:15Right.
- 1:07:15We don't know what happened behind the
- 1:07:17scenes.
- 1:07:17Cause in the KL layman case,
- 1:07:19Dave said they asked for additional
- 1:07:21information and they could never prove it
- 1:07:25because I don't think he ever sent
- 1:07:27anything.
- 1:07:28I think she sent it.
- 1:07:31She sent the secondary one as well.
- 1:07:33Yeah,
- 1:07:33but didn't the affiliate that Cale said he
- 1:07:38did that workout in say that he didn't?
- 1:07:43I don't think he ever admitted it.
- 1:07:46It's not up to Cale.
- 1:07:48I feel like he just put,
- 1:07:49kind of like this situation,
- 1:07:51she just put this score two in with
- 1:07:53this affiliate because it auto-validated.
- 1:07:55They didn't.
- 1:07:57I think they didn't do enough due
- 1:07:59diligence in the kale Lehman situation,
- 1:08:01in my opinion, that one frustrates me.
- 1:08:06Because now people will cheat and just not
- 1:08:11provide evidence and just deny and just
- 1:08:13get things taken off.
- 1:08:15Yeah, zero.
- 1:08:16We've seen people get just zeroed because
- 1:08:18they didn't provide a score or the video
- 1:08:21was inaccurate, invalid.
- 1:08:23Like people have measured wrong.
- 1:08:24It's just an invalid video.
- 1:08:26Right.
- 1:08:26So technically like you have the wrong
- 1:08:28weight, invalid video.
- 1:08:29People have had wrong measurements on
- 1:08:31handstand pushup.
- 1:08:32I remember, I think it was like,
- 1:08:33was it Laura a couple of years ago
- 1:08:34or Magala?
- 1:08:38Well, that's the bars.
- 1:08:40Yes.
- 1:08:41Like you have to read the workout or
- 1:08:42what, you know,
- 1:08:43it's just normally a set of like a
- 1:08:45zero.
- 1:08:46I'm just surprised because in my opinion,
- 1:08:50there's a case to be made.
- 1:08:52If she did not send the sped up
- 1:08:54video to CrossFit,
- 1:08:58That,
- 1:08:58and maybe I watched you on TV and
- 1:08:59lawyer stuff that she didn't admit to
- 1:09:03knowing that it was a light barbell,
- 1:09:07even though,
- 1:09:08but at the end of the day,
- 1:09:09she did admit to enough stuff.
- 1:09:12And all it took was Andrew Hiller
- 1:09:13admitting he took BPC one, five,
- 1:09:16seven to get a ban.
- 1:09:17Other athletes have admitted to that and I
- 1:09:19have not gone to ban.
- 1:09:20I'm very well known and has not gone
- 1:09:24to ban.
- 1:09:27True.
- 1:09:28I'm not going there tonight.
- 1:09:33Yeah,
- 1:09:34HQ did remove her video prior to Hiller
- 1:09:36because there were missing components that
- 1:09:38are required for a video.
- 1:09:40But it didn't necessarily say she cheated.
- 1:09:43She just didn't have...
- 1:09:45What Karen was saying, it didn't...
- 1:09:47didn't have the requisite information it
- 1:09:50needs to have to be a valid video
- 1:09:53but that didn't mean she cheated it's only
- 1:09:55after the fact when there was more digging
- 1:09:57in that we found out there was more
- 1:09:59to that but it needs it doesn't matter
- 1:10:03cross fat's giving a lot of examples of
- 1:10:05like josh golden he and his affiliate were
- 1:10:07banned because of a social media video um
- 1:10:13We've talked about in the past weeks of
- 1:10:15the guy that didn't have the rope on
- 1:10:16his handles doing double unders,
- 1:10:18the guy who looped his video ten times.
- 1:10:21All those people were banned as well from
- 1:10:25what I've heard.
- 1:10:26So none of us know what the evidence
- 1:10:30submitted by her to HQ was.
- 1:10:34maybe maybe her video was invalidated
- 1:10:37before the end of the submission period
- 1:10:39and she submitted the second video to get
- 1:10:42the score back up and that's when they
- 1:10:44found her cheating yeah i'm saying i'm not
- 1:10:48mad i'm just saying there's a case i
- 1:10:51found the lawyer she did cheat on purpose
- 1:10:52it's fine for sure no no for sure
- 1:10:54and more than one more than one of
- 1:10:56her scores as well
- 1:10:58Not just that last one.
- 1:11:00Like there's more problems.
- 1:11:02I'm just saying.
- 1:11:04I was surprised for the four-year man
- 1:11:06looking at the video that what she
- 1:11:08admitted to, the sped up,
- 1:11:10and that was basically the main thing.
- 1:11:12And that's not the video,
- 1:11:15at least I don't think,
- 1:11:16is the one that,
- 1:11:17I don't know if the original one was
- 1:11:18sped up.
- 1:11:19I didn't see the original one because it
- 1:11:20was taken down.
- 1:11:21Well,
- 1:11:21the original one said she said the clock
- 1:11:23didn't start.
- 1:11:24So she imported a clock that wasn't there
- 1:11:27while she was going.
- 1:11:30Which is still a doctored clock.
- 1:11:31Yeah.
- 1:11:33Because it wasn't really the clock that
- 1:11:34was running during her workout.
- 1:11:36Yeah.
- 1:11:39But anyway.
- 1:11:47Carolyn,
- 1:11:48Barry Bonds and Lance Armstrong never got
- 1:11:49caught either.
- 1:11:54but i'm just saying like there's rules for
- 1:11:56some and not uh yeah i pull up
- 1:12:04suza's comment i'm i'm so far behind did
- 1:12:10i miss it where no it's right here
- 1:12:12okay you guys remember karis chan her
- 1:12:15excuse is hilarious i don't think i
- 1:12:17remember no that is i don't either
- 1:12:22fill us in i know a lot of
- 1:12:23people got busted for pds have some wild
- 1:12:27excuses oh yeah i mean yeah we know
- 1:12:29the the emily abbott one is yeah beyond
- 1:12:36weird um this has got to be like
- 1:12:39the same if it's not safe work it's
- 1:12:41got to be almost like the same thing
- 1:12:43right gotta be um
- 1:12:50I think I know what it is,
- 1:12:51and it was an oral sex excuse.
- 1:12:54Okay, yeah, that's what I would assume.
- 1:12:58So.
- 1:13:01Yeah, okay.
- 1:13:02Exactly what I assumed.
- 1:13:04I think I got it right.
- 1:13:05Yeah.
- 1:13:10When you're in the boat,
- 1:13:10you can do whatever you want, Carolyn.
- 1:13:15Yeah,
- 1:13:15Jeremy read my mind on what I was
- 1:13:18talking about.
- 1:13:19Yep.
- 1:13:20I know what he's,
- 1:13:20I know what you're talking about.
- 1:13:22It's like Emily Abbott,
- 1:13:23but further down the base path.
- 1:13:24Yeah.
- 1:13:24I think it's an oral sex thing.
- 1:13:27Life source.
- 1:13:30Um, yeah.
- 1:13:33So that happened.
- 1:13:35Xenom also announced their point system.
- 1:13:38Did you guys have it?
- 1:13:41I went on their site and I put
- 1:13:43numbers in just to see like on the
- 1:13:45lift, let's say for the females,
- 1:13:47I think one Oh five kilograms.
- 1:13:49So like, I think two, two,
- 1:13:52two thirty one maybe is what a thousand
- 1:13:54points would be on this one max snatch.
- 1:13:57So that's basically like Hannah Black's
- 1:13:59like top two thirty one snatch.
- 1:14:01So every event has like a thousand points.
- 1:14:03That's like the standard.
- 1:14:05So I have a screen share to pull
- 1:14:07up.
- 1:14:11So you can go and like put whatever
- 1:14:13you think you have and it's going to
- 1:14:15give you what points that would be on
- 1:14:17your total of that event.
- 1:14:20So a thousand is supposed to be like
- 1:14:22what they consider perfect.
- 1:14:26And you can be above it.
- 1:14:28So like on this snatch one,
- 1:14:29I don't know if you can see it
- 1:14:31very well.
- 1:14:32So they actually listed up to fifteen
- 1:14:34hundred points and the kilograms across
- 1:14:36the bottom.
- 1:14:38But it'll show you like one hundred fifty
- 1:14:40four kilograms is that's this is for men
- 1:14:44is a thousand and seven points.
- 1:14:49So,
- 1:14:50and they have this for every single event.
- 1:14:54And it's, if you look,
- 1:14:57it's a lot of math.
- 1:15:01Where is it at?
- 1:15:03They have the formula in here, it's crazy.
- 1:15:05So points equals A times P minus B,
- 1:15:10caret C. Okay.
- 1:15:15scaling factor they figured it all out i
- 1:15:17think it gives you like if you have
- 1:15:19let's say above seven thousand you're
- 1:15:21considered elite yeah i've got that so
- 1:15:24here's the burpee workout uh the burpee
- 1:15:27echo ski echo bike and the performance and
- 1:15:32reps the then here's your points i like
- 1:15:37it though it's like like
- 1:15:40like that you can enter your points in
- 1:15:42there i don't think it was their website
- 1:15:43or something and like you could calculate
- 1:15:45it yourself and so if you're like looking
- 1:15:48at an event as a spectator you would
- 1:15:51be able to see quickly their results in
- 1:15:53terms of points instead of waiting
- 1:15:55Let's say when Tyler does it,
- 1:15:57we're waiting for him to finalize his
- 1:15:58leaderboard.
- 1:16:00We could see someone's score,
- 1:16:02and it's already set what the performance
- 1:16:04is.
- 1:16:05We're not waiting for what is the median
- 1:16:07score of the results.
- 1:16:08That median or whatever score is already
- 1:16:11given.
- 1:16:11The scale has already been established.
- 1:16:12Yeah,
- 1:16:13which makes it easier to follow as a
- 1:16:15spectator because the idea of the P
- 1:16:18scoring that Tyler has –
- 1:16:21I get it.
- 1:16:22But if you're a spectator,
- 1:16:23you're kind of waiting for that scoring
- 1:16:25system to be done during the competition.
- 1:16:27Like here would just be easier for people
- 1:16:30to get the scores quickly.
- 1:16:32So you can see like seven thousand plus
- 1:16:34is world class.
- 1:16:35You're an elite athlete and progress
- 1:16:38through quarters to semis.
- 1:16:40If five thousand seven hundred,
- 1:16:42you're a competitive athlete pursuing
- 1:16:43advanced gymnastics,
- 1:16:44conditioning and weightlifting.
- 1:16:46You qualify or aim to qualify for
- 1:16:48quarterfinals.
- 1:16:50I love that they're using CrossFit
- 1:16:51terminology.
- 1:16:54To kind of put because I've heard a
- 1:16:56lot of people like on the spin and
- 1:16:58some other places talk about this being
- 1:17:01like a CrossFit Games fantasy camp.
- 1:17:03And so by using that terminology,
- 1:17:06it kind of lets you know if you
- 1:17:08finish here,
- 1:17:09this is where you have a shot to
- 1:17:10be.
- 1:17:12Three to three, five, a one.
- 1:17:16I think the five, four,
- 1:17:17five thousand is you regularly take on
- 1:17:19workouts as described and have strong
- 1:17:21proficiency in gymnastics,
- 1:17:23conditioning and weightlifting.
- 1:17:25And then it goes all the way down
- 1:17:26to zero to two thousand,
- 1:17:27which is a starting line.
- 1:17:29You've been training regularly and have
- 1:17:30developed basic proficiency in the core
- 1:17:32movements and skills.
- 1:17:37So I like it.
- 1:17:38They're putting together a lot of cool
- 1:17:40stuff to go with this.
- 1:17:43Yeah,
- 1:17:45it's going to be really interesting to see
- 1:17:48who's the most well-rounded out of this
- 1:17:52and how it plays out.
- 1:17:52I'm very curious.
- 1:17:56We still don't have the full set of
- 1:17:57tests, right?
- 1:17:57I think there's missing one or two.
- 1:18:01Just one.
- 1:18:02I guess I haven't put it on paper
- 1:18:04to look if it's...
- 1:18:06truly evenly based or if it's more geared
- 1:18:10to power that's what I'd be curious on
- 1:18:13I need to put them all down and
- 1:18:15then look at if there's anything missing
- 1:18:17and if we can really so CrossFit says
- 1:18:20bands do it Richard Petty experience Coach
- 1:18:22K camp and then there's a reason Porsche
- 1:18:25and BMW have driving experiences and
- 1:18:28Hyundai does not
- 1:18:34watch the f-one race today too so uh
- 1:18:37now that i've i've created a mclaren
- 1:18:39myself um i all i can do is
- 1:18:42root for that that team in the f-one
- 1:18:45and finally both racers finished the
- 1:18:47freaking race this year um
- 1:18:55what uh we have one last thing wfp
- 1:18:58announced the roster for london uh tour
- 1:19:02stop one i have that as well gosh
- 1:19:07it's a lot of names and our very
- 1:19:09own carolyn's on it i'm not trying to
- 1:19:11dog it um but the sign pros are
- 1:19:15all listed here it looks like all twenty
- 1:19:20they're considering coming to this
- 1:19:23Then they have the challenger invites.
- 1:19:26These are the people that went to
- 1:19:28Copenhagen last year,
- 1:19:29but did not earn a pro card.
- 1:19:31They all got invites to this,
- 1:19:34the London event.
- 1:19:36Then there's wild card invites.
- 1:19:38Three men got wild cards.
- 1:19:40One woman got a wild card.
- 1:19:44And then here are the people who qualified
- 1:19:47as challengers through the online
- 1:19:49qualifier,
- 1:19:50including our very own Carolyn Prevost.
- 1:19:57I mean,
- 1:19:57I still haven't booked anything yet.
- 1:19:59You got to go.
- 1:20:00They said you're going.
- 1:20:01It's right here.
- 1:20:02It's in black and white.
- 1:20:04It's just hard because I would be missing
- 1:20:08seven out of nine days back to back
- 1:20:11for school.
- 1:20:12And that gives me so much stress right
- 1:20:16now thinking about doing that to my
- 1:20:17students.
- 1:20:19Your kids will understand.
- 1:20:20They'll understand.
- 1:20:23Yeah.
- 1:20:27But I actually,
- 1:20:27what's wild to me is their invites from
- 1:20:31Copenhagen last year are lesser known
- 1:20:33names than the people that went through
- 1:20:35the online qualifier.
- 1:20:38And I think that speaks to who the
- 1:20:41WFP is going to be for moving forward.
- 1:20:43And it's the athletes like Carolyn who
- 1:20:47could fund her whole season.
- 1:20:49Right.
- 1:20:51doing some workouts because you have like
- 1:20:53reggie fossa you have uh george's caravas
- 1:20:58uh toby buckland uh samuel cornway on the
- 1:21:03women's side you have mathilde garness you
- 1:21:07have hannah hardy dana perrin these are
- 1:21:10semi-final athletes um and some of them
- 1:21:15have made the games before
- 1:21:17Andra Moistus.
- 1:21:18She's on the up and coming list.
- 1:21:21She just took second at Guadalupalooza.
- 1:21:25She gets a pro card that helps her
- 1:21:27out for years to come.
- 1:21:32And my favorite name to say in the
- 1:21:35world is M. Day Gooch.
- 1:21:37Yeah.
- 1:21:38She's my bracket.
- 1:21:41She's good athlete.
- 1:21:44So.
- 1:21:44She has some very good strengths.
- 1:21:47Yep.
- 1:21:48I've done online qualifiers against her a
- 1:21:49few times and throwing post-a-bar stuff.
- 1:21:53Some gymnastic stuff she was really,
- 1:21:55really good with.
- 1:21:57That's just like what sticks out to my,
- 1:22:00from what I remember.
- 1:22:03Kenneth Lab says,
- 1:22:03I thought Sam Well retired twice.
- 1:22:08I just think he's retired from the
- 1:22:09CrossFit game season.
- 1:22:12The man has not made it through a
- 1:22:13CrossFit game season healthy.
- 1:22:15Yeah.
- 1:22:17And maybe he's deciding maybe three tour
- 1:22:19stops is easier on his body than trying
- 1:22:23to get through the game season.
- 1:22:24And if they're going to pay him to
- 1:22:25do it and pay him to get there,
- 1:22:29why not?
- 1:22:37CrossFit says Samuel has like torn six
- 1:22:39limbs and keeps coming back.
- 1:22:42It's but a flesh wound.
- 1:22:51Yeah, Carolyn, I think you got to go.
- 1:22:53You got to just...
- 1:22:56I mean, right now,
- 1:22:56I want my hamstring to be good for
- 1:22:59Del Mar.
- 1:23:00But I just have to think about even
- 1:23:03how to take these days off.
- 1:23:05I don't know.
- 1:23:08I think it's just hard to put my
- 1:23:10students in that position.
- 1:23:12I understand, but think about how many...
- 1:23:14There's got to be other teachers in your
- 1:23:16school who...
- 1:23:19are it's my math class that i'm like
- 1:23:22that i want i don't i just they
- 1:23:24don't do anything with it but there's got
- 1:23:26to be people who go on maternity leave
- 1:23:28and are out for a while there's got
- 1:23:29to be people who are nowhere near as
- 1:23:32fit as you who get sick and are
- 1:23:35in the hospital for a week like so
- 1:23:37because you're so fit and you don't get
- 1:23:39sick and don't take days off ever like
- 1:23:41yeah taking one day off
- 1:23:43From the whole first half of the year.
- 1:23:45And it's not even because I was sick.
- 1:23:47It was just,
- 1:23:48I think it was for mayhem.
- 1:23:50You need to just do it.
- 1:23:52So I've saved my days,
- 1:23:53but it's just because they're like
- 1:23:54back-to-back chunks.
- 1:23:55That's like very stressful.
- 1:23:58Other people will take back-to-back
- 1:24:00chunks.
- 1:24:00There will be reasons.
- 1:24:02And I mean, it's expensive too.
- 1:24:04I'm on my own dime to go to
- 1:24:06London.
- 1:24:06Like I'm going Del Mar.
- 1:24:08It would be the next weekend, London,
- 1:24:11NorCal.
- 1:24:12And then if I do Xenom in June,
- 1:24:15and then hopefully the games.
- 1:24:17It's your summer, right?
- 1:24:18You guys don't have summer school.
- 1:24:20No, I teach in June.
- 1:24:21I teach all the way until the end
- 1:24:22of June.
- 1:24:23So basically Xenon happens on the weekend
- 1:24:27that I just finished teaching.
- 1:24:28So like I think June twenty seventh might
- 1:24:30be like a PD day or twenty six.
- 1:24:32That's like our last day.
- 1:24:34And then we get summer July and August.
- 1:24:36OK,
- 1:24:37so normally I get like one month to
- 1:24:39train for the games where I'm actually
- 1:24:41leveled with my competitors like full
- 1:24:43time.
- 1:24:46Kenneth says, have Jay Birch be your sub.
- 1:24:48The problem, Kenneth,
- 1:24:49is I don't think Jay Birch speaks French.
- 1:24:54Carolyn teaches at a French school.
- 1:24:57I'm teaching math in French.
- 1:25:00And I think Jay Birch is a history
- 1:25:02teacher, which would not help.
- 1:25:03He could take my fitness class, though,
- 1:25:05if he wants.
- 1:25:06Put those people in line.
- 1:25:08You're getting so much encouragement to do
- 1:25:09it.
- 1:25:11But Teresa said, I'm like Carolyn,
- 1:25:13can't spend that much PTO next to each
- 1:25:14other.
- 1:25:16Yeah.
- 1:25:16It's not about the seven days because I
- 1:25:17have those available.
- 1:25:20It's the chunks that are together.
- 1:25:22It's like a red flag to the school
- 1:25:25board.
- 1:25:26What's that?
- 1:25:30Give your math students an assignment
- 1:25:32comparing your placements using P score,
- 1:25:34Z score, and standard score.
- 1:25:39And what are the differences?
- 1:25:43It's because I have to prepare them for
- 1:25:45like their provincial tests.
- 1:25:46So it's like a state test.
- 1:25:48We do it like in grade three,
- 1:25:49grade six, grade nine.
- 1:25:50So like,
- 1:25:51there's a lot of pressure on like that
- 1:25:53one because just it ranks our school very
- 1:25:56high.
- 1:25:58So I care about that.
- 1:26:02When we were kids,
- 1:26:02we were told it's not like you can
- 1:26:03have a computer in your pocket.
- 1:26:05Surprise.
- 1:26:06It's a calculator and a translator.
- 1:26:09And now they have their watch.
- 1:26:10So they're like this on their watch.
- 1:26:13Yeah.
- 1:26:14So many, so many tricks now.
- 1:26:18Um, there was something I missed up here.
- 1:26:21Uh, Mark Phillips had my back.
- 1:26:22I made a Monty Python joke and he
- 1:26:24said,
- 1:26:24everybody's too young in this audience to
- 1:26:27even get my Monty Python joke.
- 1:26:30And then CrossFat came back with Help Me
