- 0:55What's going on, everybody?
- 0:58I think I'm getting better at that.
- 1:00It sounds better.
- 1:02I prefer this over the one-time recording
- 1:04at this point.
- 1:08I don't know what that is,
- 1:10but that's the feeling I have.
- 1:13Going to sixty seconds,
- 1:14right before they finally took out when
- 1:16they were listening to Lowrider,
- 1:18and then Nicolas Cage goes, okay,
- 1:21let's ride.
- 1:21Just what I want to be is Nicolas
- 1:23Cage.
- 1:24And that leather jacket with the fake
- 1:26hair.
- 1:26Fuck.
- 1:27Yeah, dude.
- 1:27Yeah.
- 1:28Oh,
- 1:32and braided Angelina Jolie sitting beside
- 1:37me for long braids.
- 1:41Yeah.
- 1:42What I think of when I see this
- 1:44is like back when SeaWorld still was a
- 1:46thing, that's how they sent the orcas off.
- 1:49Is it now?
- 1:50I've never been to SeaWorld.
- 1:52I believe you do.
- 1:53Holy smokes.
- 1:56Go do the flip.
- 1:59It's fantastic.
- 2:01SeaWorld bring the flip.
- 2:05The boy's looking very spiffy today.
- 2:07Well, it's all about impressing you,
- 2:11Vicky.
- 2:12If we've impressed you,
- 2:13we have done our thing.
- 2:17Honestly, this is my lunch break.
- 2:18Y'all lucky I have a shirt on, period.
- 2:19Yeah.
- 2:25I finished my – I was telling Corey
- 2:27right before we went on,
- 2:28I just finished my seventh training in
- 2:33three weeks of conducting,
- 2:36and today was the last one,
- 2:38so I'm done.
- 2:39Don't have to do that anymore.
- 2:43But I was going through,
- 2:44and there was a piece where I had
- 2:46to show –
- 2:48A comparison.
- 2:49And usually you hit the button and it
- 2:51pops up a window and you see the
- 2:53side by side of everything.
- 2:56Hit it today in the training and it
- 2:57didn't work.
- 2:59And I acted like that's normal.
- 3:03Let's just keep on rolling.
- 3:05Because I was not stopping.
- 3:07I was not giving up the finishing of
- 3:10this training.
- 3:11No way, no how.
- 3:13We are just going to act like that
- 3:14is normal and keep on trucking.
- 3:17Absolutely.
- 3:18Absolutely.
- 3:19You play the hand you were dealt like
- 3:21it's the hand you wanted every single
- 3:22time.
- 3:23All right,
- 3:24and moving right along from this.
- 3:26It's fantastic.
- 3:32I thought it was agreed yesterday that you
- 3:33would have Gabby on today.
- 3:35The problem is she didn't sign the deal.
- 3:40She's not she's not I don't
- 3:43She's not here.
- 3:44No.
- 3:49I have done hundreds upon hundreds upon
- 3:52hundreds of interviews.
- 3:54I have tried to get Gabby on.
- 3:56She has never returned a single message
- 4:00from me ever.
- 4:04So, yeah.
- 4:07Hexy Lover,
- 4:08I sound like Steve Perry singing Don't
- 4:10Stop Believing during lunchtime.
- 4:12I will take that every day of the
- 4:14week and twice on Sunday.
- 4:16Yes, one hundred percent.
- 4:19Don't stop believing in lunchtime with the
- 4:24Clydesdale.
- 4:29That's funny.
- 4:31Yeah, if Gabby came on the show,
- 4:32it would take focus off of her rogue
- 4:34aspirations.
- 4:36Sorry, we can't distract from that.
- 4:39Not with the games in a week and
- 4:40a half.
- 4:42Yeah.
- 4:43Oh, man.
- 4:48Corey, however, does not.
- 4:51Dude.
- 4:51Dude.
- 4:52They're coming hard.
- 4:53It's fine.
- 4:54It's true.
- 4:57Yeah.
- 4:59I don't pretend to sound like Steve Perry.
- 5:02I don't think anybody has.
- 5:04Yeah.
- 5:08the little Asian guy that they were
- 5:10singing for the longest time that dude
- 5:12sounds just like Steve I refuse to go
- 5:15see Journey with that dude I know he
- 5:19sounds like him it ain't him you know
- 5:22not only does he sound like him we
- 5:24were on the floor and at one point
- 5:27you lose track of him right because he's
- 5:29a ball of energy or at least he
- 5:30was whenever we saw him right and he
- 5:33came running through the middle aisle and
- 5:37while singing in full voice like running
- 5:40through the crowd right past us and we
- 5:41were like what because steve perry ain't
- 5:45doing that steve perry is a hundred and
- 5:47twenty seven years old he ain't running by
- 5:49nobody singing in full voice listen i have
- 5:56i have three steve perry albums i know
- 6:00i have seven journey albums on vinyl
- 6:04I need to get money and buy myself
- 6:05a Journey album.
- 6:06Real Journey and real Steve Perry.
- 6:09I'll slap it on my record player and
- 6:11I'll be good to go.
- 6:13I'm to the point in my life where
- 6:15if I'm going to go to a concert,
- 6:17I want to see the people.
- 6:21Going to see Foreigner with absolutely not
- 6:24a single person left in.
- 6:25Not one.
- 6:29It just does not sound like a good
- 6:31time to me.
- 6:32Yeah, that was an interesting show.
- 6:35That's who actually it was.
- 6:37Night Ranger, Foreigner, and then Journey.
- 6:39What I have noticed is everybody I've said
- 6:43I've refused to go,
- 6:44you have gone and seen.
- 6:45yeah well to be fair um i've seen
- 6:49foreigner twice the second time was at a
- 6:53casino in lake charles and they played
- 6:55literally for like an hour and fifteen
- 6:57minutes and got tight like that was a
- 6:59wrap oh and i was fine and spending
- 7:02the rest of the night getting absurdly
- 7:04drunk um before then was when i saw
- 7:08them with night ranger and then journey
- 7:10and um they were amazing but that was
- 7:13also in like
- 7:15two thousand eleven twelve somewhere up in
- 7:18that area something like that so i don't
- 7:22know it was they were good though good
- 7:24stuff um have you guys ever seen ariana
- 7:31imitating all these different singers it's
- 7:32fantastic yeah she's amazing she is yeah
- 7:35no she's so good at impersonating the
- 7:37other singers yeah
- 7:39The Saturday Night Live where she actually
- 7:41fills in on the radio because the radio
- 7:43station went down.
- 7:44So like she does Britney Spears or she
- 7:47does Whitney Houston is phenomenal.
- 7:49That skit is awful, is awesome.
- 7:52Andrew Sten,
- 7:53not sure I wanted to see Van Halen
- 7:54with David Lee Roth when they were
- 7:55touring.
- 7:55And I think you mean again,
- 7:57like the last, yeah,
- 8:00right before Eddie died.
- 8:01Roth looked and sounded awful.
- 8:05So I saw David Lee Roth by himself
- 8:08at a bar here in Columbus in like,
- 8:11two thousand one, two.
- 8:15And he was pretty good at that point,
- 8:20but he showed up two hours late.
- 8:24He started to sing Jump,
- 8:26jumped in the air,
- 8:27and the power blew all of his equipment
- 8:30on the stage about an hour and fifteen
- 8:32in, and then he just left.
- 8:37Two hours late, hour and fifteen in,
- 8:40power blows, deuces.
- 8:42I'm going to go ahead and get on
- 8:44out of here.
- 8:45But he did.
- 8:47It was promoted as Sing the Hits of
- 8:48Van Halen,
- 8:49and he did all the old school Van
- 8:51Halen.
- 8:53But it was wild.
- 8:56He's an interesting cat.
- 8:58Love the skyscrapers.
- 9:00Mark, I hear you.
- 9:06And when it was out,
- 9:07I really did dig it.
- 9:09But it ain't nothing.
- 9:11Nothing like Eat Em and Smile with Yankee
- 9:14Rose and Tobacco Road and all of that.
- 9:18If you go back and think about when
- 9:20that came out,
- 9:21I had Edmund Smile on tape.
- 9:23Van Halen,
- 9:24Fifty One Fifty came out at the exact
- 9:26same time.
- 9:27And it was David on his own and
- 9:29the new Sammy Van Halen kind of going
- 9:32toe to toe.
- 9:33And both those albums, in my opinion,
- 9:35are phenomenal.
- 9:36Fifty One Fifty is a fantastic album.
- 9:38Edmund Smile is also a fantastic album.
- 9:40I did not have Fifty One Fifty,
- 9:41but I did have mostly mostly bought it
- 9:44like I knew who he was.
- 9:46right even as a kid but like the
- 9:48out the album cover the artwork is still
- 9:51imprint imprinted into my brain and always
- 9:54probably will be um yeah i have i
- 10:00have every van halen on vinyl every every
- 10:04single one buy some more um i will
- 10:10never ever get sick of the song yankee
- 10:13rose
- 10:15steve eye on the guitar talking back to
- 10:18david lee roth at the beginning is classic
- 10:23hairband rock whatever you want to call it
- 10:26from the eighties all day long steve is
- 10:31a bad dude
- 10:33I was watching video on YouTube when Van
- 10:35Halen was on Jimmy Kimmel in twenty
- 10:36fifteen.
- 10:37Painful.
- 10:37That's when David Lee Roth smacked himself
- 10:39in the face with the microphone stand and
- 10:42was bleeding for the end of Panama.
- 10:45I believe it was Panama.
- 10:46I think it was Panama.
- 10:50And Scott,
- 10:51I've been playing your Van Halen playlist
- 10:52on Spotify a bunch.
- 10:55I might listen to some Edie Rock the
- 10:57rest of the day.
- 10:57That sounds like a good idea.
- 10:58Yeah.
- 11:01And Avera is tired of us talking about
- 11:03anything other than CrossFit.
- 11:09We talked about this yesterday, Avera.
- 11:12So you're a little late to the party.
- 11:14I was talked out of this thing by
- 11:18people saying that the total actually
- 11:21skews it more because if you have a
- 11:24good deadlift, it throws everything off.
- 11:28Or a good squat, it throws everything off.
- 11:31Um, so yeah, I'm, I'm, uh,
- 11:35I'm better with it today with the being
- 11:39and all of that stuff.
- 11:42I just think it's interesting that they're
- 11:44doing it the way that they are,
- 11:45but we beat that horse yesterday.
- 11:48It is in fact dead.
- 11:51Well,
- 11:51and the chat and you kind of talked
- 11:54me out of being upset about it.
- 11:56And again, I said yesterday,
- 11:58the first five events or five scores of
- 12:01the games, it's awesome.
- 12:05Keep bringing it.
- 12:07Yeah.
- 12:11Yeah.
- 12:12John George,
- 12:13this is what was said yesterday.
- 12:15I like it this way.
- 12:16You can't hide a weakness.
- 12:20I'm laughing at Siobhan.
- 12:25Yeah.
- 12:25Live concerts with more than two hundred
- 12:27people equals stupid.
- 12:29It does now.
- 12:30Now that I'm in my fifties,
- 12:33hundred percent dude i do not look kid
- 12:36rock and uh several other people it was
- 12:41a festival happened right by my house and
- 12:45when i say right by my house i
- 12:47mean like a four and a half five
- 12:48minute drive total from doorstep to there
- 12:53um and we did not go because it
- 12:55was going to be a festival atmosphere
- 12:59And like,
- 12:59I would love to go see Kid Rock
- 13:00and like some of the other people that
- 13:01were playing, I think Jason Aldean, like,
- 13:04you know, my country stuff.
- 13:06Southern, it's a bunch of good names.
- 13:08And we're like, nah, nah.
- 13:11I'll be honest.
- 13:12Like I even teeter on the CrossFit games
- 13:17at times.
- 13:18Like do,
- 13:21do I spend the money to go get
- 13:24in a big crowd of people and
- 13:28the older I get,
- 13:28the less I just want to be in
- 13:30crowds.
- 13:30I just want, I like my circle.
- 13:33I like hanging out with my people.
- 13:36Every time one of my,
- 13:39like one of the people that I,
- 13:40you know,
- 13:40it's close to my age group or,
- 13:42you know, suggest, Hey,
- 13:45we should go do water Palooza.
- 13:47It sounds great for about.
- 13:50Forty-five seconds.
- 13:51And I remember what the crowds look like
- 13:53over there.
- 13:54And I'm like, Hmm,
- 13:57No.
- 13:59What would the crowds used to look like?
- 14:01Well, I mean, even with the new venue,
- 14:03dude, like,
- 14:05there's still a lot of people there.
- 14:06It is.
- 14:07Like, a lot of people there.
- 14:08I'm going to tell you right now,
- 14:09Fitness at the Coast had a ton of
- 14:11people there.
- 14:13And they separated, you know,
- 14:15the first two days were individuals,
- 14:16second two days was teams.
- 14:17And we only went on team on,
- 14:19you know, on our days.
- 14:20I started from the first day to go
- 14:22register.
- 14:23And there are still a ton of people
- 14:25there just trying to make your way through
- 14:27the crowd.
- 14:27I don't like it.
- 14:28Like, it's too much.
- 14:30And I'm a people person.
- 14:33I see people everywhere I go.
- 14:35And, like,
- 14:35I know a ton of people and whatnot,
- 14:37but.
- 14:38Man,
- 14:38there's just a whole bunch of people
- 14:39milling about and trying to get in,
- 14:42see who they're trying to see and all
- 14:43that other good stuff.
- 14:46No, thank you.
- 14:49I go to the movies as late as
- 14:51possible and definitely not in the first
- 14:52couple weeks to avoid the crowds also.
- 14:55Yeah.
- 14:57And I can't think of anything worse than
- 14:59a festival feel.
- 15:01Except for I have been pounding the drum
- 15:03that a festival feel for the CrossFit
- 15:05Games is the way to go.
- 15:07Yeah.
- 15:08But a big open space like Madison was,
- 15:11you didn't feel like confined even in
- 15:15Albany with half an arena to get in.
- 15:19You had to like smush down the street
- 15:22with vendors and,
- 15:25Like, you know,
- 15:28I'm just not into that anymore.
- 15:30And look, what Daniel's saying right here,
- 15:33I don't like crowds.
- 15:34I literally look at everyone as a threat.
- 15:35If my kids are with me,
- 15:36it's a thousand times worse.
- 15:37That's way worse.
- 15:39If I am somewhere with my wife and
- 15:41my children,
- 15:42I am on high alert the entire time
- 15:45I'm there.
- 15:46especially if it's somewhere where there's
- 15:48like a whole bunch of people and it's
- 15:50you know basically the public and whatnot
- 15:54i am on high alert hit on a
- 15:56swivel the entire time for that reason
- 15:59right there because like i don't want to
- 16:01lose him she's eight she can get i
- 16:03mean she's getting bigger as a case maybe
- 16:05but i don't i don't like that at
- 16:08all not to get morbid or anything but
- 16:11like i i just can't make myself worry
- 16:14about that
- 16:16Like, one, my kid isn't with me anymore.
- 16:17She's off on her own doing her own
- 16:19thing.
- 16:19So I don't have kids.
- 16:20But if it's my time and that breaks
- 16:23out, it is what it is.
- 16:25Like,
- 16:26I can't spend my life worrying about what
- 16:28might come.
- 16:30It's not that I'm trying to, believe me.
- 16:32It's just that I'm walking around and I
- 16:34am... She's eight.
- 16:35It's not so much Jennifer.
- 16:37I get it with the kid.
- 16:39I get it with the kid.
- 16:41But if it's just me and Julie now,
- 16:43like...
- 16:44And I don't want anything to happen to
- 16:45my wife, but like, I was,
- 16:48I was worried about Brody for the longest
- 16:49time, but that dude is fucking five foot,
- 16:52eleven and two hundred and probably thirty
- 16:55five pounds right now.
- 16:56Ain't nobody stealing him.
- 16:57And he's nineteen years old.
- 16:58Are you are you sure he's yours?
- 17:00and uh no he's no he's my stepson
- 17:03he's oh okay okay i was at five
- 17:06eleven i was like it's funny dude no
- 17:07it's hilarious like when people uh he came
- 17:11he actually came to five a.m when i
- 17:12coached wednesday morning and um he was
- 17:15showering after and was leaving to go to
- 17:17uh to go to work and as people
- 17:19walk in i'm like have y'all met my
- 17:20son and every time i say that they
- 17:22look at him and they look at me
- 17:23and they look at him and they look
- 17:24at me i'm like yeah cool he's big
- 17:27whatever moving right along
- 17:33Apparently we're playing truths and lie
- 17:36because Joseph says he's five eleven.
- 17:39If Joseph is five foot eleven,
- 17:41I am six foot three.
- 17:43Which is how big David Johnson thinks I
- 17:48am.
- 17:48What it sounds like, Scott,
- 17:49is Julie is on her own.
- 17:51I mean.
- 17:55Listen,
- 17:56if someone was trying to shoot my wife,
- 17:59I would dive in front of the bullet.
- 18:01I love that woman with all my heart.
- 18:03Yep.
- 18:05But again,
- 18:07the percentage of people that are killed
- 18:09at an open event is so,
- 18:12why would I,
- 18:13why would I spend fifty percent of my
- 18:15life worrying about what point one percent
- 18:19may happen?
- 18:19One percent.
- 18:22It's just a math equation in my head.
- 18:26Does that make sense?
- 18:28Oh, no, it absolutely does.
- 18:31Having said that,
- 18:32the time when it was absolutely the worst
- 18:34was when Brody, his junior year,
- 18:39he was in a band all four years
- 18:40in high school and they played at Carnegie
- 18:42Hall.
- 18:44And so like we were there for four
- 18:45days, five days, something like that.
- 18:47And we did things around New York City.
- 18:49Right.
- 18:50We stayed in Times Square and like there's
- 18:53a whole bunch of kids in the band.
- 18:54And so they need, you know,
- 18:57guidance basically.
- 18:58And I was in charge of a group
- 18:59of children.
- 19:00And if you've never been in charge of
- 19:01a group of teenagers and trying to get
- 19:03them all herded and going in the same
- 19:04direction while being in the biggest city
- 19:07on the face of the planet.
- 19:10It's not fun.
- 19:12Like I probably got eighteen, twenty five,
- 19:15thirty,
- 19:15forty hundred more gray hairs that weekend
- 19:17alone just from.
- 19:20Because I don't like big cities,
- 19:24I don't like big crowds and I'm in
- 19:26charge of children and I got all three
- 19:28of them at the same time.
- 19:30And I'm speaking for myself.
- 19:32I know there's people in the chat with
- 19:33PTSD that have been through things that
- 19:35I've never been through.
- 19:36And,
- 19:37and that is a whole different nightmare
- 19:39that I don't ever want to experience.
- 19:41Right.
- 19:42Right.
- 19:42So I am not speaking for them.
- 19:44I'm speaking for myself.
- 19:45Oh yeah.
- 19:46A hundred percent.
- 19:47We know that now to add some levity,
- 19:49uh,
- 19:49they saw him showering and knew it wasn't
- 19:51your son.
- 19:52Yeah.
- 19:52Seven.
- 19:52That's exactly what it was.
- 19:54Yeah.
- 20:01so all right uh so no new events
- 20:03since we talked yesterday no uh but
- 20:06something yesterday so the red barn is out
- 20:09yes i see that uh so was that
- 20:15a red herring the entire time
- 20:20So this is what the way my mind
- 20:22works.
- 20:24My mind works is that they didn't have
- 20:26the zoning yet for the ranch.
- 20:28So it was plan B.
- 20:32And now they got the zoning for the
- 20:34ranch, and they don't need that.
- 20:36But I've heard a lot of speculation.
- 20:38Amanda Harry said today,
- 20:40there's some construction on the
- 20:41one-on-one, and that would affect things.
- 20:44And she lives there.
- 20:45I don't.
- 20:46I don't know.
- 20:49Everything is just a guess or speculation.
- 20:52But my mind worked as...
- 20:54You got to prepare for the worst.
- 20:55And then if something better happens,
- 20:58there you go.
- 21:00And I know they've always had trouble
- 21:02getting zoning at the ranch for anything
- 21:04large.
- 21:06Sixty athletes is large.
- 21:09And that doesn't even count like other
- 21:10people that need to be there.
- 21:13Yeah.
- 21:13Judges, staff, volunteers,
- 21:15all that good stuff.
- 21:18And so.
- 21:19So, yeah.
- 21:25Yes, Mark Phillips.
- 21:26Only two Masters events out,
- 21:29and I have seen nothing about the actual
- 21:31number of events that they're supposed to
- 21:32have.
- 21:33Having said that,
- 21:33the two events that are out,
- 21:35I'm not mad at.
- 21:39I might actually run through them this
- 21:40weekend.
- 21:41I'm going to train with my buddy Gareth
- 21:43Saturday morning.
- 21:45We might run through, and...
- 21:49I do have a problem, but,
- 21:51and I'll say it in a minute,
- 21:52but this makes me feel like I'm on
- 21:54the right track.
- 21:55If Savan says I agree with.
- 21:58I would think so.
- 22:03When it comes to that,
- 22:04when it comes to that area of the,
- 22:06of the country and that kind of planning
- 22:09and stuff and whatnot,
- 22:10I would think that Savan would have a
- 22:11pretty good handle on what's probably
- 22:15actually going on.
- 22:16So.
- 22:18John George goes, what are they?
- 22:20I haven't seen them.
- 22:20First, I want to say this.
- 22:22An email did go out to the athletes
- 22:24earlier this week.
- 22:25I've seen the email.
- 22:27They changed the announcement date for the
- 22:29number of workouts until the thirteenth.
- 22:33I believe it's the thirteenth, right?
- 22:37So from this past Monday to the next
- 22:39Monday.
- 22:41How you wouldn't know the number of events
- 22:43at this point if you're starting to
- 22:45release them...
- 22:47Is really scary in my mind.
- 22:50But maybe they just want the cloak over
- 22:52that number until next week.
- 22:54I don't know.
- 22:56Well,
- 22:56then why tell them you're going to release
- 22:59everything at all?
- 23:02First of all, why even say that?
- 23:04And if you are,
- 23:05why are you not changing the date?
- 23:07Because you're still testing workouts?
- 23:08You're still trying stuff?
- 23:09You're still doing... Yeah, I'm with Lito.
- 23:12That just means that they don't know.
- 23:15Or John George.
- 23:15They're still rating them.
- 23:18So here are the two workouts for those
- 23:20of you who don't know what they are.
- 23:22We have four rounds for time,
- 23:23twenty-five toes to bar,
- 23:25seventy-five double-unders, and a four,
- 23:27three, two, one snatch.
- 23:29The snatch weights go up in weight on
- 23:33every round.
- 23:34So for thirty-five to thirty-nine,
- 23:36it's two oh five, one forty-five,
- 23:38two fifteen, one fifty-five,
- 23:40two twenty-five, one sixty,
- 23:41two thirty-five, one sixty-five.
- 23:47And then it changes throughout.
- 23:49Yeah.
- 23:51So there's that.
- 23:53And then the other workout that just was
- 23:58released last night is four-time,
- 24:02twenty-one, fifteen, nine thrusters,
- 24:05twelve, nine, six bar-facing burpees.
- 24:10That's an open workout.
- 24:12Well, and... But this is my...
- 24:14And I'm okay...
- 24:16I don't mind the movements,
- 24:18and I don't mind it being a couplet.
- 24:23Here's the Bob and Joe issue.
- 24:27When in doubt, barbell.
- 24:31Yep.
- 24:32Right?
- 24:32So the first event announced,
- 24:35that snatch can get heavy for some people.
- 24:38And in some age groups, I would say,
- 24:41other than five people,
- 24:42you're going to have some people standing
- 24:44there looking at a bar.
- 24:47Oh, as soon as it came out,
- 24:48I was talking to David and my buddy
- 24:51Chris, both in Forty Five Forty Nine.
- 24:53We all kind of agree.
- 24:54Like if you can snatch heavy,
- 24:56it's a total bar workout because the
- 24:57double unders don't mean shit.
- 25:00But we have to remember,
- 25:01it's OK that there's an open style event
- 25:04at the games because we're starting at
- 25:06zero.
- 25:07Sure.
- 25:08Right.
- 25:08And you need to test all the elements
- 25:10of fitness.
- 25:12But this is this is my problem with
- 25:14this workout that's up here right now.
- 25:17Why twelve nine six on the burpees?
- 25:18Yeah, I don't get that.
- 25:21Why not just make it a straight twenty
- 25:23one fifteen nine?
- 25:24Yeah.
- 25:25Why?
- 25:26Why lean towards the barbell on another
- 25:28workout?
- 25:29Yeah.
- 25:31Right.
- 25:33This is going to hurt.
- 25:35FYI,
- 25:36because West with them cutting down the
- 25:40number of burpees and
- 25:43It's a thruster workout completely.
- 25:46The burpees are not enough to make a
- 25:47difference.
- 25:48It's going to be whoever can thruster the
- 25:50fastest.
- 25:51And it's a light barbell,
- 25:53but it's just more barbell, right?
- 25:56And if you went twenty one fifty nine
- 26:00for all of it,
- 26:01you're only adding a minute.
- 26:05To the overall workout, maybe.
- 26:07ish i mean these are elite athletes i
- 26:11even know they're older than the elites
- 26:13they can burpee pretty damn fast and put
- 26:18the cap where you want it if people
- 26:20are slower than that they get capped and
- 26:22they're out yeah that that's my only beef
- 26:27with the programming thus far we i need
- 26:31to see the rest of it
- 26:32But so far,
- 26:33we're going into a heavy-ish snatch,
- 26:39and we're adding less fitness,
- 26:43more barbell to the second workout.
- 26:48Yeah, I mean, the chat's wild right now,
- 26:51but it's everybody's making suggestions
- 26:54that are pretty simple that would make
- 26:56this a much better games test,
- 27:00a much better games workout.
- 27:05What Joseph is saying is perfect.
- 27:09like yeah i like his but john george
- 27:10scott we've tested that combination we
- 27:12don't need thrusters test again yes you do
- 27:16because everybody starts at zero yeah no
- 27:18and so if you have been good at
- 27:20thrusters and you want to get to do
- 27:22them again to get your score at the
- 27:24games why do we throw out that you
- 27:27were good at them three times ago yeah
- 27:33If it didn't start at zero and scores
- 27:35carried over,
- 27:36your logic would make perfect sense to me.
- 27:39I might actually do that workout this
- 27:40afternoon just to see.
- 27:45Don't lose your pass, Scott.
- 27:46I know.
- 27:48I did not go crazy.
- 27:50All I said was it's leaning doorbell.
- 27:52Yeah.
- 27:52That's all.
- 27:54So I will say this as soon as
- 27:55Chris sent it to me yesterday,
- 27:57I said I got it.
- 27:58I just he just sent the screenshot and
- 28:00I said, OK, what's the weight?
- 28:01Because my initial thought for even my age
- 28:03group would have been one thirty five.
- 28:06And it's not it's ninety five, forty five,
- 28:08forty nine.
- 28:09Right.
- 28:09Which it's a it's a light thruster weight.
- 28:12It is a light thruster weight.
- 28:14Forty forty four is like one oh five.
- 28:16I mean,
- 28:16one fifteen would have been at least a
- 28:18little bit more of a separator for for
- 28:21my particular age group as far as that's
- 28:22concerned.
- 28:24but like if you're going to make it
- 28:26lean barbell then make it lean barbell you
- 28:28know what i mean like if you're going
- 28:30to make it a thruster workout make it
- 28:32an actual thruster workout and put some
- 28:34weight on the board don't just but don't
- 28:36suggest that because we don't need more
- 28:37barbell workouts i'm just telling you that
- 28:39that's in my opinion in my humble opinion
- 28:47um
- 28:49You need to,
- 28:49if you're going to make it to where
- 28:51the burpees are just kind of there,
- 28:53then you need to put the weight on
- 28:55the barbell because there's not going to
- 28:56be enough separation,
- 28:58especially not with a ninety five pound
- 28:59thruster.
- 28:59There's just won't be.
- 29:01And it's going to be like Lito said
- 29:02earlier,
- 29:03it's going to be no rep city when
- 29:07people are just trying to fly through,
- 29:08whether your chest isn't touching the
- 29:10ground on the barbell,
- 29:11if you're not hitting, you know,
- 29:12not necessarily hitting depth,
- 29:14not necessarily hitting full extension,
- 29:15like judges are going to have their hands
- 29:17full.
- 29:18Yeah, especially in the Masters division,
- 29:20getting full extension at the top of
- 29:22movements is already a difficult thing to
- 29:25do.
- 29:26And now you're going this light barbell
- 29:29and people are getting elbows extended is
- 29:33going to be very, very hard.
- 29:36It's going to be... It's going to be...
- 29:38Look...
- 29:39To be fair, I love it.
- 29:41I think it looks fun as shit.
- 29:42I'm probably going to do it this afternoon
- 29:43when I go to the gym.
- 29:46At the same time, though,
- 29:48I can see it being a problem for
- 29:50the judges.
- 29:51And like Lito just said,
- 29:53most people are going to be finishing
- 29:54within seconds of each other.
- 29:56It's going to be quick.
- 29:57There's just not enough separation.
- 29:58Shit.
- 30:03Who needs judges at the games anyway?
- 30:05Yeah.
- 30:09It's wild.
- 30:14Andrew,
- 30:15I'm not saying don't bring more barbell.
- 30:18What I'm saying is why can't the burpees
- 30:22be equal to the barbell?
- 30:24They shouldn't be.
- 30:25That's all.
- 30:27It's my opinion.
- 30:29They don't listen to me anyway.
- 30:31No, twelve nine six is throw away.
- 30:33They don't mean anything.
- 30:38But I...
- 30:41And again, we don't,
- 30:42John George said earlier,
- 30:43when you only have five or six events,
- 30:45we don't know that it's only five or
- 30:46six events.
- 30:47We know it's at least five because this
- 30:49is Workout Dome of Five.
- 30:50Right.
- 30:52A couple years ago, it was eight.
- 30:55Or last year, I think it was eight.
- 30:56And the year before, that was nine.
- 30:58Yeah.
- 31:00So...
- 31:06Andrew Sten doesn't listen to me either.
- 31:10He only listens for my Van Halen takes.
- 31:12Hey, that's fair.
- 31:15Whatever you're listening for,
- 31:16we love the fact that you're here.
- 31:18How about that?
- 31:20Yeah.
- 31:22Anyway,
- 31:23there's a lot of cool suggestions for
- 31:25workouts.
- 31:27Joseph had a cool one.
- 31:28Daniel has a few.
- 31:31But again, we're not programmers.
- 31:34And I really hate talking programming,
- 31:35I'll be honest with you,
- 31:37because I'm not an elite athlete.
- 31:39I don't really know.
- 31:43But it's just an observation I saw.
- 31:48Miss Lito Calogiani,
- 31:50any chance we're swimming or biking?
- 31:53Pretty please.
- 31:54I'm going to say this.
- 31:56No way are you swimming.
- 31:58if they're not swimming or biking and we
- 32:02are swimming at monster games in the
- 32:06center of the country and they didn't find
- 32:10a way to kind of incorporate it in
- 32:12for for the masters or even a bike
- 32:16a bicycle i rode a bicycle in birmingham
- 32:19they're doing it again for uh magic city
- 32:22games this weekend or next weekend
- 32:24whenever whenever it is
- 32:27those guys can find a way the guys
- 32:29that are in charge of the actual games
- 32:31should be able to find a way yeah
- 32:36i don't know we'll see yeah um so
- 32:43yesterday yesterday i was listening to
- 32:46hillar's hot takes and he was saying that
- 32:53we need to go to a two-year four-year
- 32:57pace of the games and his hot takes
- 33:02and i and i'm and i said i
- 33:03think i said yesterday the day before i'm
- 33:05okay with doing that but if you're gonna
- 33:07do that you still have to fix the
- 33:09season yeah hundred percent moving that
- 33:12alone doesn't do shit no the season has
- 33:18to make sense whenever they do that
- 33:24Right.
- 33:25No argument here.
- 33:27So it can't be done on its own.
- 33:31No argument here.
- 33:33Um, I mean, we've, we've,
- 33:34we've said that several different times.
- 33:36If they are, if they are,
- 33:38if you're going to make adjustments,
- 33:40you're going to, or are you going to,
- 33:41especially if you're going to completely
- 33:42revamp it,
- 33:42then you definitely need to completely
- 33:44revamp it.
- 33:45And you have to make it make sense
- 33:46in a way that people can follow it
- 33:48and are going to follow it for the
- 33:50entirety of the time.
- 33:51Especially if you're going to start
- 33:53skipping years.
- 33:55you got to be able to hold people's
- 33:56attention and people have very short
- 34:00attention spans especially nowadays
- 34:03instant gratification has become so much
- 34:05of a thing that if you don't everybody's
- 34:09always looking for the next thing what's
- 34:10the next thing what's the next thing
- 34:12what's the next thing and if you can't
- 34:14hold their attention long enough they're
- 34:16going to lose interest and they're going
- 34:17to go elsewhere
- 34:19Yep.
- 34:22Yep.
- 34:23Um, just another catch up thing is, uh,
- 34:26Guy, I was watching the, um,
- 34:32I was watching the Guy interview with
- 34:33Dave.
- 34:33Okay.
- 34:33Yeah.
- 34:34So they can,
- 34:36and we talked the other day that ten
- 34:37of the thirty women athletes all started
- 34:40in the teen division.
- 34:43Seven of the thirty men started in the
- 34:45teen division.
- 34:46That's pretty comparable.
- 34:48Yeah,
- 34:49they're finally starting to catch up.
- 34:52And then that jaw-dropping thing,
- 34:54and I think it happened in twenty
- 34:56seventeen.
- 34:57Guy snatched at the team games.
- 35:02Two ninety one.
- 35:03Of course he did.
- 35:06And I remember it took me back to
- 35:08this vivid memory.
- 35:09I was volunteering on North Park.
- 35:13there was this scuttle that this teen had
- 35:15in the arena at madison had just snatched
- 35:23and the buzz around the entire festival
- 35:28was this kid just blew it out of
- 35:30the park
- 35:33And it's been so like kind of going
- 35:37down that memory lane with Dave on that
- 35:41interview.
- 35:41It was really cool because.
- 35:43Turns out that was Guy Mejeros.
- 35:46And that Guy interview was really good.
- 35:49It's the best I've seen Guy in an
- 35:52interview.
- 35:54Maybe somebody bought him a bicycle and
- 35:56he's probably kind of calmed down.
- 35:58Well,
- 35:59what's funny is the bicycle thing came to
- 36:01my head because he was sitting by his
- 36:02pool.
- 36:03Oh.
- 36:04His in-ground pool.
- 36:07Out back.
- 36:11My backyard pool is three inches high.
- 36:15You have to blow it up.
- 36:17You got one that you got to blow
- 36:18up?
- 36:18Mine's just made out of hard plastic.
- 36:21Really hard to travel with.
- 36:25I don't think he needs a bike when
- 36:27I saw his backyard at his house.
- 36:30It's not even that...
- 36:32That memory is stuck with me.
- 36:34That's another thing that's going to be
- 36:35there forever.
- 36:36I wish somebody would just buy me a
- 36:38bicycle.
- 36:38I wish somebody would buy me a bicycle.
- 36:40Hey, everybody out there,
- 36:43if anybody wants to buy Corey a bike,
- 36:45I will happily take it.
- 36:47DM me.
- 36:48I will send you my address.
- 36:49Ship it.
- 36:53Meg's pool goes with her turtle sandbox.
- 36:55Yeah.
- 36:59Meg,
- 36:59you can actually take the sand out and
- 37:00fill that turtle sandbox with water and
- 37:03it's dual purpose at that point.
- 37:05Or you can leave half the sand in
- 37:06and put the water in.
- 37:07It's just like being at the beach.
- 37:10True.
- 37:13The other thing that was popping in my
- 37:15head is, you know,
- 37:16Davis said there's going to be a handful
- 37:18of BAM events.
- 37:20Yep.
- 37:21meaning less than five seconds, right?
- 37:25I was hoping he meant bam by like,
- 37:27bam, we're live.
- 37:28And then Savant just shows up and does
- 37:30a ten-minute echo bike workout.
- 37:32Well, from my experience,
- 37:34wherever Dave is at the games, bam,
- 37:38Savant's right behind him.
- 37:41It's fun watching those old
- 37:43behind-the-scenes stuff and whatnot,
- 37:45and you see they're following Dave.
- 37:47Somebody's got a camera on Dave,
- 37:48and you see Savant just kind of
- 37:52right behind him the whole time.
- 37:53It's fantastic.
- 37:54Or like telling him some crazy shit and
- 37:56Dave's just kind of looking at him like,
- 37:58would you shut the F up and leave
- 37:59me alone?
- 38:00It's entertaining.
- 38:03Well, back to the BAM events.
- 38:06Yes.
- 38:07Guy is going to crush that.
- 38:10Guy is going to crush that.
- 38:12Oh, yeah.
- 38:12Any of the short, fast time domain stuff.
- 38:17So he's going to hit some home runs.
- 38:21It's just how he does it all.
- 38:24Can he do enough damage control on the
- 38:27seven point two K?
- 38:30No.
- 38:34I don't like being that guy,
- 38:35but I'm going to be that guy.
- 38:36No, he cannot.
- 38:44Yeah, I agree.
- 38:45So on the interviews Dave has been doing
- 38:47have been great.
- 38:48So dense with info.
- 38:50Yeah.
- 38:51I think the athletes have been way more
- 38:53open this year.
- 38:54I think Dave is much more relaxed and
- 38:58I think they're coming off much, much.
- 39:01He's gotten better.
- 39:02That is for certain.
- 39:03It's almost like somebody gave Dave media
- 39:05training to be able to, you know,
- 39:07get people to be more relaxed talking to
- 39:09him and whatnot.
- 39:10And I think he's actually having more fun
- 39:11with it than what he did before.
- 39:15That makes sense.
- 39:18Um,
- 39:20Scott, speaking of teens,
- 39:21I have an interesting thing to send you
- 39:23about the teens games that my husband
- 39:25found out when he pulled some data,
- 39:27but basically the field is becoming a lot
- 39:29more international.
- 39:34You,
- 39:35you had to see if you've watched the
- 39:37teens at all, you saw that coming.
- 39:43Um,
- 39:46south america europe are flooding the teen
- 39:50division she just sent me a dm i
- 39:55see it lito i will look at it
- 39:57but i only have five minutes before my
- 39:59meeting so um yeah when savan's behind
- 40:05dave all you see is the top of
- 40:06his head
- 40:07if he's wearing that big ass hat it's
- 40:10that and like two camera bags just kind
- 40:13of floating through the camera it's
- 40:16fantastic the only question i've ever had
- 40:19about savan doing that is if you look
- 40:22at all the old um behind the scenes
- 40:25there's a lot of blurry shots the
- 40:27content's awesome he has like six lenses
- 40:31hanging off of him that he apparently
- 40:33never uses does any of do any of
- 40:35them focus
- 40:40I say that only because at the Masters
- 40:41games last year, I totally messed up.
- 40:44And I had so many shots out of
- 40:45focus.
- 40:47It happens.
- 40:48But yeah.
- 40:51always like and i know that he's moving
- 40:54the camera quick to catch whatever the
- 40:56person's saying but yeah honestly it's
- 41:01gonna sound like i'm over here uh stroking
- 41:04some on off but i like it because
- 41:08you you know it feels real like it
- 41:10feels like you turn around turn quick and
- 41:14Like, oh,
- 41:14somebody's right there and they're saying
- 41:15something and you're trying to figure out
- 41:16exactly what's going on at that time.
- 41:19Especially like if he's talking to
- 41:20somebody else and then somebody else walks
- 41:22up or talking to somebody and somebody
- 41:24else walks up and then like just kind
- 41:25of starts interjecting in the
- 41:27conversation.
- 41:27All of a sudden he just flips back
- 41:28around to him.
- 41:30I love that kind of stuff because that
- 41:31feels like you're in it with him.
- 41:34I think that's what made those things so
- 41:35good is shit like that.
- 41:39Joseph Vermeer's autofocus.
- 41:41The problem, Joseph,
- 41:41is when you swing the camera fast,
- 41:43you can't guarantee what it grabs to focus
- 41:47on.
- 41:47Yep.
- 41:49And if you watch the behind the scenes,
- 41:51a lot of times it'll focus on something
- 41:52in the background and the background is
- 41:54crystal clear.
- 41:55Yeah.
- 41:57And the foreground is not.
- 41:58The person he's talking to is not.
- 42:04This year will be special, I promise.
- 42:07Dude, last year was special.
- 42:08The behind the scenes from last year are
- 42:10fantastic to watch.
- 42:13Highly entertaining.
- 42:13Yeah.
- 42:16Well, with that, guys,
