Transcript
- 0:03The big question is,
- 0:05is James Sprague an alien?
- 0:19I love the chase and the hunt and
- 0:21I set the pace when I'm running.
- 0:22I always take what I want and I
- 0:24always give it one hundred.
- 0:25Don't need a bank, no I'm funded.
- 0:27Play the game like it's nothing.
- 0:28I'm always thankful for something.
- 0:29Don't take for granted, stay humble.
- 0:31Now wake up!
- 0:33It's time to look at the enemy.
- 0:35Look in the mirror if he is no
- 0:37friend to me.
- 0:38It's not working out,
- 0:39maybe it's the chemistry.
- 0:40It's time to break up.
- 0:42It's over.
- 0:52what is going on everybody welcome to
- 0:55lunch with the cladsdale i don't think it
- 0:57played it's got i didn't hear it you
- 1:00didn't hear you abadabadoo my road cat uh
- 1:05stream yard and the road caster are not
- 1:08my friends they work together so well
- 1:11sometimes it's amazing so well
- 1:15Ah, well,
- 1:18I'm less than fired up to be here
- 1:20today, but I wanted to have a show.
- 1:23Still coming off the Twilight Meds.
- 1:27Who knows what I might say?
- 1:31That's why I wanted to have a show
- 1:32today,
- 1:33just because we don't know exactly what's
- 1:34fixing to come out of your mouth.
- 1:36This could be awesome.
- 1:40Let's start with this.
- 1:42You like sushi?
- 1:44Love sushi.
- 1:45Me too.
- 1:47Well, my question to you is,
- 1:48would you eat this?
- 1:57It is a push-up sushi.
- 2:00Remember the push-ups as a kid?
- 2:02I do.
- 2:03Yeah, it's push-up sushi.
- 2:08Um, I mean, look, I eat, uh,
- 2:12grocery store sushi.
- 2:13So, uh, yeah,
- 2:14probably depending on where you get it
- 2:17from in Chicago,
- 2:22dump your soy in the top,
- 2:25pop up your sushi.
- 2:31Honestly,
- 2:33Like I said,
- 2:33I'll eat grocery store sushi that they
- 2:37make right there in the store.
- 2:38So yeah, I'd probably eat that.
- 2:43It's an interesting concept.
- 2:44I will give them that.
- 2:45Yeah.
- 2:46Not sure I would eat it publicly.
- 2:49Right.
- 2:50There is that as well.
- 2:52Maybe push it up and then like grab
- 2:53a piece off the top.
- 2:55Yeah.
- 2:55Yeah.
- 2:59Vicky says, finally made it to YouTube,
- 3:01and that's the first thing I see.
- 3:03You're welcome, Vicky.
- 3:05Again,
- 3:06just one of the many features we provide
- 3:08over here.
- 3:09You can't get that kind of service
- 3:10anywhere else.
- 3:13Yeah, Omar, lesson fired up.
- 3:18I guess we'll get to that.
- 3:20So I had a TEE and a cardio
- 3:26version scheduled for this morning.
- 3:29T E went fine.
- 3:30No blood clots in my heart.
- 3:32No blood clots in my lungs.
- 3:34Went to do the cardio version and it
- 3:38didn't take, I'm still in a fib.
- 3:42So here we sit same space we were
- 3:46yesterday.
- 3:48Uh, but you know,
- 3:53now we've got to think about next steps.
- 3:56I'm not a medical doctor.
- 4:00But I slept at a Holiday Inn Express
- 4:01last night.
- 4:03And my guess is the next step is
- 4:05what happened with Pat Velner.
- 4:08And that is an ablation to correct the
- 4:10problem permanently as opposed to these
- 4:14temporary fixes.
- 4:16But I got to meet with my cardiologist
- 4:18because his partner did this procedure,
- 4:21not him.
- 4:23And so I'm assuming I got to schedule
- 4:25a meeting and have a conversation.
- 4:30About where we go from here.
- 4:33Prayers up to the big man that we
- 4:34get a plan of action that we can
- 4:38get this fixed ASAP,
- 4:40sooner rather than later.
- 4:42Yeah, I think so.
- 4:45Uh, someone who is an MD, uh,
- 4:48ablation time.
- 4:50That's my guess.
- 4:51I have not talked to my cardiologist.
- 4:54Uh,
- 4:54we're going to have to have that
- 4:55conversation,
- 4:55but I'm guessing that is the next step.
- 4:58It's been,
- 4:59it's been discussed as part of the tears
- 5:03that we're going to go through.
- 5:04Um, and I think I have, uh,
- 5:08exhausted all other options.
- 5:13So after the first time,
- 5:16shocking it back in the rhythm and then
- 5:17it went back out of rhythm and then
- 5:20we're here now.
- 5:20And then the second time it didn't take,
- 5:22it would seem to be that that would
- 5:23be the next step.
- 5:24Again, I'm also not a doctor,
- 5:26definitely not a heart doctor,
- 5:28which seems like it'd be more.
- 5:30Couple more,
- 5:30couple extra steps added to doctor, so.
- 5:34So first shock was shocked to get it
- 5:37back.
- 5:37See if it would stay.
- 5:39Second shock changed medicine.
- 5:41See if that would help it stay.
- 5:45Shock didn't work.
- 5:46Now I think we're ablation.
- 5:49So that's where we're at.
- 5:56Um, um,
- 6:00very clearly stated by Dave Castro floor.
- 6:07I was,
- 6:07I was wondering if he was having a
- 6:09stroke while he was trying to say it,
- 6:11like all at the same time.
- 6:12Like if you're just going to come up
- 6:13and be like,
- 6:15I can't move my left side.
- 6:16I need help.
- 6:18And like,
- 6:18just start throwing out random words
- 6:19because as many times as I've seen that
- 6:21dude do what he did yesterday,
- 6:24that's the worst time he's ever had
- 6:27fumbling word,
- 6:28trying to get out what he was trying
- 6:29to say.
- 6:31Somebody said it.
- 6:31I don't know if it was Joseph or
- 6:33somebody else said that like he needs a
- 6:34whiteboard because he can talk while
- 6:37writing.
- 6:38Right.
- 6:38He does that really, really well.
- 6:40But talking while trying to do stuff.
- 6:43Not so much.
- 6:46Well,
- 6:46I think it wasn't the easiest workout to
- 6:49explain.
- 6:50And then when you try to surprise
- 6:51everybody with the thruster and put that
- 6:54insert that in after it just made it
- 6:57even more confusing.
- 6:58Sure.
- 7:00Yeah,
- 7:00because at first he was just saying
- 7:01burpees, and I was like, really?
- 7:02Are we just doing just straight-up
- 7:04burpees?
- 7:04Okay,
- 7:05that's going to be a judging nightmare.
- 7:07Let's not do that at all.
- 7:09And he came back, and he's like, no,
- 7:10no, no, burpees, bar burpees,
- 7:13bar-facing burpees.
- 7:14And I was like,
- 7:14bar burpees sounds like we're going bar
- 7:16hopping.
- 7:17Like, that's what bar burpees sound to me.
- 7:19I mean, I know they're in South Beach.
- 7:21I get it.
- 7:22But probably not a great idea.
- 7:25It was rough.
- 7:27So we did get through it.
- 7:29It ends up being.
- 7:31Twelve burpees.
- 7:33Twelve cleans.
- 7:34Twelve burpees.
- 7:36Twelve thrusters.
- 7:39Two times through at one weight.
- 7:41Two times through at another weight.
- 7:44And two times through at a final weight.
- 7:49A little clearer there.
- 7:51Way more.
- 7:52Way more.
- 7:54Looks like it's a rough one to finish
- 7:56again.
- 7:59And again, I'm okay with that.
- 8:01Yeah, it should be.
- 8:04Not everybody should be able to finish
- 8:06every single open workout.
- 8:08I just thought about it this morning on
- 8:09my way in here because they were talking
- 8:12about it on CJ and we talked about
- 8:14it this morning.
- 8:15And this is going to be the first
- 8:16open in quite some time that I can
- 8:19remember that I'm not going to finish at
- 8:22least one of the workouts.
- 8:25Like all three of them.
- 8:27And I'm okay with that.
- 8:28Like, it's fine.
- 8:30It's a test.
- 8:31Hey,
- 8:31this is some stuff I need to work
- 8:32on going forward.
- 8:33Not a big deal.
- 8:34Moving right along.
- 8:38Yeah.
- 8:43I'm a fan.
- 8:43I actually told the Glintons this
- 8:48yesterday.
- 8:50I wish it would have been heavier.
- 8:54That's about my only, in my opinion,
- 8:58maybe either bigger jumps or start heavier
- 9:00and end heavier, one or two.
- 9:02But I would have liked a heavier barbell,
- 9:04but I don't get to ride it.
- 9:06So it is what it is.
- 9:07I think you're nuts.
- 9:09Well, that's fine.
- 9:10A lot of people do.
- 9:11You stand in line.
- 9:13It's a big long line of people who
- 9:14think I'm insane.
- 9:16When I'm watching elite athletes struggle
- 9:19with the weight at the end,
- 9:21like I think a jump is nuts.
- 9:24I think unless you train to be an
- 9:29elite athlete,
- 9:30a one thirty five pound thruster is not
- 9:32common.
- 9:33No, I did also say that yesterday, too.
- 9:37But I should probably qualify this.
- 9:39I think it should have been heavier
- 9:40weights with less reps.
- 9:43Like one round each or one that made
- 9:46a lot of sense that actually John Young
- 9:48said this morning was like three rounds at
- 9:50the first weight,
- 9:51two rounds at the second weight,
- 9:52one round at the last weight with heavier
- 9:55weights.
- 9:57But again, I like a heavy barbell.
- 10:00I like doing heavy thrusters.
- 10:02I like doing heavy cleans as part of
- 10:04a workout.
- 10:05Like we do a whole lot of that
- 10:06kind of shit.
- 10:06So that's the kind of stuff that I
- 10:09would enjoy doing.
- 10:11I'm going to enjoy doing this one just
- 10:12because I know how much it's going to
- 10:13hurt.
- 10:14And I like putting myself through that
- 10:15mental test of let's see what we got.
- 10:17Because this test, believe it or not,
- 10:19for a lot of the average people is
- 10:22going to be a mental game of how
- 10:25bad do I want it?
- 10:27How bad am I going to make it
- 10:28hurt?
- 10:28Because you can, you don't have to,
- 10:31you no longer have to do two foot
- 10:33takeoff, two foot landing on the burpee,
- 10:35right?
- 10:35So you can just kind of get up,
- 10:37hop, skip over it.
- 10:38Long as both feet are in there, land,
- 10:40get down, get up, hop, skip over it,
- 10:43land, get down.
- 10:44It's really, really, really,
- 10:46whenever you get into it,
- 10:48going to see how much do you want
- 10:50it?
- 10:50How much,
- 10:51how much pain are you willing to put
- 10:52up with for?
- 10:54Sixteen minutes.
- 10:57And I'm a big fan of that kind
- 10:58of stuff because I like to see where
- 10:59my limits are and then try to push
- 11:01past them.
- 11:06Yeah,
- 11:10I'm a strong advocate that I like the
- 11:12weights where they are.
- 11:14And I'm going to tell you,
- 11:16Alexander Majors,
- 11:16who's competing at Waterpalooza,
- 11:19was my coach at noon at Polaris.
- 11:24And he is as strong as anybody I've
- 11:27seen in CrossFit.
- 11:30He was doing threes.
- 11:34On the thrusters?
- 11:35Yeah.
- 11:36Yeah, and the cleans.
- 11:39I'm doing singles on the cleans from the
- 11:41jump.
- 11:42Like, I'm not insane.
- 11:44I'm doing singles on the cleans from the
- 11:46jump,
- 11:46and I'm going to try to hold on
- 11:47unbroken on the thrusters for the
- 11:48lightweights as long as I can.
- 11:51The two sets of ninety-five should be
- 11:52fine.
- 11:53The first set of one-fifteen should be
- 11:54fine.
- 11:55We'll tackle that second set of
- 11:57one-fifteen when I get there.
- 12:00Joseph Ramirez,
- 12:01I tried one round of each this morning.
- 12:03One-thirty-five thrusters was a monster.
- 12:06hundred percent especially tired dude
- 12:08especially tired you look at that and you
- 12:10go oh all right here we go all
- 12:12the way down below parallel all the way
- 12:14up full extension like it's a thing for
- 12:17sure uh there are so many no reps
- 12:22on the cleans it was astonishing
- 12:24Bro, it was so bad watching that, uh,
- 12:27watching like the first heat of girls go
- 12:28yesterday, the second heat as well.
- 12:30And then the first year guys,
- 12:32like people were right here.
- 12:33Elbows pointed straight down,
- 12:35never seen anything like it.
- 12:36And they would just keep running.
- 12:43Uh,
- 12:43Trenola says the cleans were the easiest
- 12:45part.
- 12:48That would be for me for sure.
- 12:52Um,
- 12:55Yeah, I don't.
- 12:56This is wild, man.
- 12:59It's going to be something,
- 13:00that's for sure.
- 13:01I do like the fact that Dave said
- 13:02just as far as the burpees are concerned,
- 13:05like do them lateral, do them facing,
- 13:07do them, you know, however,
- 13:09just get over the bar.
- 13:10Don't matter where your body position is
- 13:12as long as your chest and thighs touch
- 13:13and then get over the bar.
- 13:14Chest and thighs touch, get over the bar.
- 13:17I like that a whole lot.
- 13:18Just it removes a lot of guesswork from
- 13:22people judging you from going, oh,
- 13:24did he take off with two feet?
- 13:25Did he not take off with two feet?
- 13:26Did he land with two feet?
- 13:27Did he not land with two feet?
- 13:29You got to worry about it.
- 13:30Boom.
- 13:30Both feet were in there at some point.
- 13:32Yes.
- 13:33Cool.
- 13:33Jump over the bar.
- 13:38Chattanooga.
- 13:40I think it's a very different workout
- 13:41between the men and the women.
- 13:43I think it might be a little bit
- 13:44different,
- 13:45but it's going to suck for both.
- 13:47So if you are a strong woman and
- 13:49have a decent size motor,
- 13:52you're probably going to get further along
- 13:54because the weight matters less.
- 13:57My training partner did it yesterday and
- 13:59she got into the first round of the
- 14:04heaviest thruster and she wants to finish.
- 14:07She's going to do it again Monday and
- 14:09try to get done with that round because
- 14:10she is absurdly strong and her motor is
- 14:14ridiculous.
- 14:15So, like, she was looking at it saying,
- 14:17I can probably finish that first round of
- 14:19thrusters at the heaviest weight.
- 14:20And she probably can.
- 14:22A little bit better pacing.
- 14:24Fall down.
- 14:25Don't jump.
- 14:26Don't step down.
- 14:27Like, don't, you know,
- 14:29don't catch yourself.
- 14:30And then let your chest touch.
- 14:32Let gravity work so you're not, you know,
- 14:35burning all your pressing power out of it.
- 14:38And then step up, jump over, and repeat.
- 14:45Chetanufi asked,
- 14:46do people actually practice cleans to do
- 14:47them that way?
- 14:48I can't fathom it.
- 14:50My gym,
- 14:51at both gyms that I belong to,
- 14:53neither one would let you get away with
- 14:56not getting your elbows in front of the
- 14:58bar on a clean.
- 14:58Yeah, same.
- 15:00I don't...
- 15:02I don't understand,
- 15:05especially not seeing at that level,
- 15:06right?
- 15:07Seeing, you know,
- 15:08what are essentially elite athletes,
- 15:10semifinal level type athletes who are not
- 15:12getting their elbows through the bar.
- 15:14I don't,
- 15:15I will never understand that whatsoever.
- 15:17Like who's coaching you?
- 15:18This is standard.
- 15:21This is standard.
- 15:23This is not.
- 15:26So you got Amanda agreeing with you.
- 15:29Women will get further on this one because
- 15:31the weights are lighter.
- 15:32If you watched the elites,
- 15:35way more women finished than men.
- 15:37Only one man finished.
- 15:39I didn't even see a man.
- 15:40Who finished?
- 15:41Sprague.
- 15:42No, he missed it by one rep.
- 15:44Yeah.
- 15:45Yeah.
- 15:45No, but I say Sprague.
- 15:48Still coming out of the twilight.
- 15:51No,
- 15:51I was watching that on my way to
- 15:52go coach yesterday.
- 15:53I just had it on in a Jeep
- 15:55while I was driving,
- 15:56listening to it more than anything else.
- 15:58And I was like, holy shit, dude.
- 16:01And he stayed on his...
- 16:04Yeah,
- 16:04he stayed on his plan the entire time.
- 16:06He was seven, five, seven,
- 16:07five the entire time.
- 16:09And just even on that last set,
- 16:11I was like, okay,
- 16:11he's just going to just go for it
- 16:12right here and just kind of try to
- 16:14get it, you know,
- 16:14do these last twelve unbroken.
- 16:17He stopped at seven.
- 16:18He squatted down for a second.
- 16:19He had like fifteen seconds left or so.
- 16:21Fifteen, fifteen, thirteen seconds,
- 16:22somewhere like that to try to get the
- 16:23last five.
- 16:24And it just wouldn't happen.
- 16:29I think he could have.
- 16:30Well, the clock is different that you see.
- 16:34Yeah.
- 16:35So it makes it hard to really judge
- 16:38how close that was at the end.
- 16:39But, yeah.
- 16:41I don't know.
- 16:42I think he's capable of finishing it.
- 16:44I absolutely think he's capable of
- 16:46finishing it.
- 16:47Whether or not he's going to do it
- 16:47again, I don't think he needs to.
- 16:49I mean, he's only in the quarterfinals.
- 16:51Like, just log your score.
- 16:52And he's not Colton.
- 16:53He's not trying to win the over.
- 17:03He missed in a couple of the midsection
- 17:05breaks.
- 17:06He may have had a wallet in the
- 17:08heat.
- 17:09Yeah,
- 17:10they're talking about like nine degrees
- 17:11outside yesterday whenever they were doing
- 17:12that.
- 17:13Sitting on that black rubber outside,
- 17:16humidity.
- 17:18I mean, it's a different animal.
- 17:23Yeah.
- 17:26All right, so the three women went.
- 17:29Ariel went out fast.
- 17:32She lost it all the way to third
- 17:38and then sprinted in the last minute to
- 17:40get second.
- 17:41Olivia Kerstetter won pretty handedly,
- 17:46but she didn't finish.
- 17:48And then, what,
- 17:49six women finished in the competition?
- 17:51Yeah.
- 17:56Oh,
- 17:56I had their names in my head yesterday.
- 17:58So does that illustrate it's better to
- 18:03watch somebody else do it first?
- 18:05I think so.
- 18:07I think so.
- 18:07Chase and I were talking about it on
- 18:08the broadcast yesterday, you know.
- 18:11everybody if you are at an elite
- 18:13competition or any kind of competition you
- 18:15want to be in the second heat if
- 18:17you have an opportunity to watch the
- 18:19people in the first heat go and kind
- 18:22of see what they did what they didn't
- 18:24do and maybe adjust your strategy you know
- 18:26like oh i was planning on doing what
- 18:28they did and they just blew smooth up
- 18:30it's probably not a good idea i'm pretty
- 18:32close to that person you know fitness wise
- 18:34if you know i'm i'm probably i can
- 18:36probably do what they did instead of doing
- 18:38what i was planning on doing
- 18:41But there's also the, holy smokes,
- 18:43that chick just smashed it,
- 18:45like finished it in thirteen and a half
- 18:46minutes or whatever it was.
- 18:48The girl in the first heat did like
- 18:49thirteen, twelve, I believe.
- 18:50I don't know.
- 18:51Something insane.
- 18:51Fourteen, twelve.
- 18:52Okay.
- 18:53Okay.
- 18:55Maybe I'm not doing that,
- 18:56but I would think,
- 18:58I've been talking to everybody I know
- 18:59that's already done it,
- 19:00like since yesterday afternoon.
- 19:03Dan Church texted me at six o'clock this
- 19:05morning telling me what his score was,
- 19:09just to kind of give me an idea,
- 19:10because I'm going this afternoon.
- 19:13Yeah, absolutely.
- 19:14Absolutely.
- 19:15I wouldn't say compare yourself to others
- 19:17necessarily,
- 19:18but you can one hundred percent take a
- 19:20look at everybody's going what everybody's
- 19:22doing and going, yeah, I like that.
- 19:24No, I don't like that.
- 19:25Yes, I like that.
- 19:26No, I don't like that.
- 19:26And kind of make a decision based on
- 19:28that.
- 19:31Oh, my word.
- 19:34Yeah.
- 19:36Jody asked if the open announcement people
- 19:39had to do it again.
- 19:40They did not.
- 19:40No, they did.
- 19:43So that brings me to my next question.
- 19:46Ariel didn't have to do it again,
- 19:48which I don't think she should have.
- 19:50But then she got extra rest going into
- 19:52event two and ends up winning event two.
- 19:56Do you think that made the difference in
- 19:58her winning?
- 20:01What was event two?
- 20:02Did that tell you how much I've been
- 20:03paying attention to what's going on over
- 20:04there?
- 20:04It was the row, wall, ball, rope climb.
- 20:08Oh, man.
- 20:11Yeah.
- 20:14Yeah.
- 20:15If I'm being honest, yeah.
- 20:17That doesn't sound like a very aerial
- 20:20workout.
- 20:22Row, wall, ball, rope climb, sure.
- 20:27But, like,
- 20:27against some of those other girls that are
- 20:28there, no.
- 20:30I just don't know when it was Legolas
- 20:33and she made up a lot of time
- 20:36on the Legolas.
- 20:37Right.
- 20:38Um,
- 20:40I also think Lucy trying to squeeze in
- 20:42a legless and not getting it was a
- 20:45huge disadvantage.
- 20:47You can't get a no rep on a
- 20:49legless.
- 20:50No.
- 20:51No, you have to be smart.
- 20:53You have to be smart.
- 20:55If anybody's ever failed a legless,
- 20:56they'll tell you.
- 20:58You knew three quarters of the way up
- 20:59if you were going to make it or
- 21:00not.
- 21:01You're still going to try,
- 21:03but you are pretty sure when you get
- 21:05three quarters of the way up, okay, nope,
- 21:07I am probably not going to,
- 21:08no amount of kipping is going to get
- 21:09me up to grab this last one.
- 21:11That wasn't the case.
- 21:12This was,
- 21:13they were three-minute intervals,
- 21:16and she tried to squeeze one in in
- 21:18one of the intervals and ran out of
- 21:21time.
- 21:22Yeah.
- 21:23She was reaching to touch the top.
- 21:26That's rough.
- 21:28That's rough.
- 21:29So that's going to blow you up, right?
- 21:30Because I just did all that for nothing.
- 21:36And then what's crazy is,
- 21:39and this was my next question,
- 21:41and if you didn't watch, just tell me,
- 21:43but one was dry.
- 21:46Heat two, rain.
- 21:50And yet still heat two outperformed heat
- 21:54one.
- 21:55Well, it's cooler outside.
- 21:58But it affected some athletes more than
- 22:01others.
- 22:01Emma Tall was wiping down her ball all
- 22:04the time.
- 22:06And she, like, literally,
- 22:07when it was coming down,
- 22:07it was sliding right out of her hands.
- 22:11Sucks.
- 22:13I will say this.
- 22:14You were heavy wall balls.
- 22:17I will say this when it comes to
- 22:19that.
- 22:20If you did the qualifiers or got invited
- 22:23or whatever,
- 22:24decided you were doing Waterpalooza,
- 22:26you knew what you were getting into.
- 22:29Or you should have because it rains every
- 22:33single year.
- 22:33There's rain delays.
- 22:35Sometimes if it's not too bad,
- 22:36they'll just push right on through
- 22:37depending on what the workout is.
- 22:38They've changed workouts on the fly
- 22:40because it was too wet outside.
- 22:44That's the luck of the draw at that
- 22:45point.
- 22:46Hey, sorry, sucks to suck,
- 22:47but we have to keep,
- 22:48we have to keep this thing moving on.
- 22:50So maybe next,
- 22:51maybe the next one you'll get,
- 22:53it'll be dry for you and be raining
- 22:54for everybody else.
- 22:55And that'll make the difference.
- 22:57Maybe the next one,
- 22:57maybe it won't rain anymore.
- 22:59That's just one of those,
- 23:00one of those things.
- 23:02When you have an event that is a
- 23:04one hundred percent outside,
- 23:06it is one hundred percent going to be
- 23:07dictated by what is happening outside and
- 23:09you cannot control the weather.
- 23:14It's live, look in.
- 23:18Where are the people?
- 23:22Hit the actual live, Scott.
- 23:24Well, this, I just paused it.
- 23:27Yeah.
- 23:27I'm asking you, like,
- 23:30where are the people?
- 23:31Great question.
- 23:36That is sad.
- 23:38Yeah.
- 23:39I've never seen Wadapalooza that desolate.
- 23:45No, and they're going right now,
- 23:48and there's still not a whole lot of
- 23:49people out there.
- 23:54Oof.
- 23:58Let's see if we can get a...
- 23:59There's people walking around and stuff,
- 24:00but I mean, even on a Friday,
- 24:04like it's Miami,
- 24:05people are going there just to go watch,
- 24:07like to go do a... That's still not...
- 24:12I mean, look at all those stands,
- 24:13empty stands, dude.
- 24:15And they are working out.
- 24:17Years past, you couldn't get a seat.
- 24:22Right?
- 24:22You might have had a ticket.
- 24:25That doesn't mean you won't be able to
- 24:26sit down somewhere and actually watch what
- 24:28was going on.
- 24:29Right.
- 24:31That's wild, dude.
- 24:34That's wild.
- 24:37It's only Friday morning.
- 24:38Well, elites are over today.
- 24:42Individuals, yeah.
- 24:43Teams start tomorrow.
- 24:45The elite competition is over.
- 24:50Bro.
- 24:58I can't talk about it.
- 24:59Yeah, Shana says it's raining pretty hard.
- 25:01I mean.
- 25:05Yeah,
- 25:05but if you paid a ticket to go
- 25:06see Wadapalooza.
- 25:09Yeah,
- 25:09I don't give a shit how hard it's
- 25:10raining.
- 25:12I'm going to have an umbrella or I'm
- 25:14going to have something or I'm just going
- 25:15to be out there getting wet.
- 25:16It's fine.
- 25:16Not a big deal.
- 25:17Like I have enough workout clothes that
- 25:19can get soaking wet and then dry off
- 25:20a little bit later.
- 25:21That's not a big deal.
- 25:22This side area is pretty full.
- 25:29It's weird that nobody's sitting in the
- 25:30stands though.
- 25:32I mean, nobody,
- 25:33obviously there are people sitting in the
- 25:34stands,
- 25:34but like not as nearly as many as
- 25:36I would have expected there to be.
- 25:42Oh, that's a grief burpee.
- 25:44Who's that right there?
- 25:47Joseph, what?
- 25:48Elites are done?
- 25:49They're done today.
- 25:51They're done today.
- 25:52There's more events after this,
- 25:54and then they're done.
- 25:59But here you have Ellie Turner on the
- 26:00left, right?
- 26:02I couldn't tell.
- 26:03Yeah, I don't know.
- 26:11Yeah,
- 26:11this crowd is looking more like Masters
- 26:13crowd.
- 26:14I'm a Masters athlete.
- 26:15Trust me.
- 26:17I know it's just like my parents and
- 26:19wife watching.
- 26:21Yeah.
- 26:22That was my podcast for a long time.
- 26:25My parents have never actually came to see
- 26:26me compete.
- 26:27They have no idea what I actually do.
- 26:28It's kind of funny.
- 26:35My nanny told me at Christmas a couple
- 26:36years ago that I need to eat a
- 26:37cheeseburger.
- 26:43I told her,
- 26:44if you knew how much I actually ate
- 26:45during the course of a day,
- 26:46you wouldn't be saying that right now.
- 26:48Trust me.
- 26:53Is the future smaller events like Crash
- 26:55and Mayhem?
- 26:57So I'm going to say this, though.
- 26:58They had...
- 27:01But what it runs fittest to the coast
- 27:02on this morning, right?
- 27:04He does not have as many people at
- 27:07his thing.
- 27:08But that when I tell you that place
- 27:10was packed.
- 27:13And I mean, packed to the rafters.
- 27:16There was nowhere like all the bleachers
- 27:18will slap for the people.
- 27:20Like there was nowhere to sit.
- 27:21Whenever we got we first got there,
- 27:23we kind of walking around checking stuff
- 27:24out, dude.
- 27:25And like there were people everywhere.
- 27:28It's also all inside.
- 27:31Like the run that we had to do
- 27:33ended up getting shortened because it was
- 27:34raining outside because it was going to
- 27:36run out the building and then back in.
- 27:39So they had a contingency for that,
- 27:40and we ended up running inside.
- 27:42But aside from that,
- 27:44everything else is in one building on two
- 27:46floors, and it was amazing,
- 27:50and it was slapped full of people.
- 27:54It was actually pretty fun to kind of
- 27:56be a part of and be around it.
- 27:59Monster Games was the same way.
- 28:00Monster Games was also probably two,
- 28:03three thousand people,
- 28:04something like that, Jason has over there.
- 28:06And again, slap for the people.
- 28:15Let me ask you this.
- 28:18How fun is this event to watch?
- 28:21Not at all.
- 28:26It's really, really fun.
- 28:27We had twenty six three.
- 28:30Not really a fun thing to watch.
- 28:33No,
- 28:35we had rowing and wall balls into legless
- 28:39rope climbs.
- 28:41The only fun part were the legless.
- 28:44That's probably the only way you could
- 28:45tell who was in the lead is who
- 28:48got up on the rope climbs first.
- 28:49Right.
- 28:51And now we have.
- 28:53A bar bar complex on the rig.
- 28:57sandbag complex and a burpee over a log
- 29:03all while wearing a vest that looks like
- 29:08they're exhausted and just flopping.
- 29:14I don't think I don't think what a
- 29:16police is doing themselves any favors with
- 29:17the programming.
- 29:20Not so far.
- 29:21I don't even know what the we'll get
- 29:22a max out later.
- 29:25and they're like a barbell complex at some
- 29:27point.
- 29:39yeah uh daniel says does anyone care that
- 29:42it was a missed opportunity to not just
- 29:45repeat one of the barbell burpee complex
- 29:47couplets from the past opens twenty one
- 29:50twenty two two fourteen five sixteen five
- 29:54thirteen one
- 30:02i i enjoy i do i do like
- 30:05retesting stuff absolutely um but i much
- 30:08prefer having something new thrown at us
- 30:12personally like give us something and give
- 30:15us a different workout you want to retest
- 30:17something retest it during the year
- 30:19whatever or every once in a while when
- 30:21it fits what else is going on here's
- 30:23the thing
- 30:26I'm not a big fan.
- 30:28While I do like this workout by itself,
- 30:31just the sheer number of wall balls,
- 30:33so squatting that we did for the first
- 30:36workout,
- 30:36and then you go to the squatting that
- 30:38we're doing for this workout seems a bit
- 30:41redundant.
- 30:42And then what was the time cap for
- 30:45the first one?
- 30:46Fifteen minutes, and then fifteen minutes,
- 30:50and then sixteen minutes.
- 30:55it's kind of weird right that's not
- 30:57usually a thing that happens even for the
- 30:59open like something short something medium
- 31:01something long is more more likely to
- 31:04happen so i don't know it's kind of
- 31:05weird dude watching slow running on sand
- 31:09made slower with a vest is not must
- 31:11see tv correct but the best comment hexi
- 31:17lover sandy flops great name for this
- 31:19workout they are looking like sugar
- 31:21cookies
- 31:25Cause that is what they're doing at this
- 31:26point is flopping.
- 31:27You're right.
- 31:27You're right about that.
- 31:28Like flop down in the ground,
- 31:30get the sandbag over,
- 31:31get themselves over flopped on the ground.
- 31:36The amount of sand,
- 31:37these people are going to be digging out
- 31:38from places.
- 31:38They did not expect to have sand in
- 31:41this morning is going to be absurd
- 31:44compounded by the fact that it's wet.
- 31:48Cause now it's wet sand and it's
- 31:50everywhere.
- 31:51Chet Anufi.
- 31:51I love watching any CrossFit live.
- 31:53Doesn't matter to the workout to me.
- 31:55You're not who I'm speaking to.
- 32:00No.
- 32:00I watched everything yesterday.
- 32:04But I'm telling you that it's not going
- 32:06to draw in anybody else but CrossFit
- 32:08nerds.
- 32:12Yeah.
- 32:13We are not the people that
- 32:16There should be,
- 32:17I won't say concerned about,
- 32:19but like trying to draw in, right?
- 32:20If you're broadcasting this live,
- 32:22we're going to watch regardless.
- 32:23It doesn't matter.
- 32:24Chattanoogies of the world are going to
- 32:25watch regardless.
- 32:26It does not matter.
- 32:27Only reason why I didn't watch the last
- 32:28event last night is because I was coaching
- 32:30and I got home and honestly,
- 32:31I just completely forgot about it.
- 32:35The other people who may,
- 32:38they may do CrossFit.
- 32:39They're kind of interested.
- 32:40They find out this event's going on, blah,
- 32:42blah, whatever.
- 32:42And they go watch and they're like,
- 32:44what is like, what is happening?
- 32:47And I'm sure chasing and Mr.
- 32:52Voice at the CrossFit Games are doing a
- 32:54fantastic job calling it.
- 32:55I have not,
- 32:56from what I heard a little bit yesterday,
- 32:58and they sounded fantastic, but like,
- 32:59it's kind of hard to say,
- 33:01especially for something like this.
- 33:02It's like, oh,
- 33:03and Lucy gets out on the run and
- 33:04here she is running.
- 33:06Cool.
- 33:07And then they made them, they,
- 33:09the ball complex is not even unbroken.
- 33:11They can just do.
- 33:13The total bar drop due to chest,
- 33:15the ball,
- 33:16and then do the bar muscle ups.
- 33:17Like it's not even that, that,
- 33:18that makes it not a complex at that
- 33:19point.
- 33:20Like it was a complex.
- 33:21You need to not let go of the
- 33:22bar.
- 33:22That's the whole purpose of a complex.
- 33:24So like by just by changing that,
- 33:26you made it even less fun to watch
- 33:27now.
- 33:28Cause it's not five, three,
- 33:30one or whatever it is.
- 33:32Uh, now it's just, oh,
- 33:34they did some total bar.
- 33:35Oh, they did some chest to bar.
- 33:36Oh, they did a bar muscle up.
- 33:40Yep.
- 33:42Just saw Ortega on the beach.
- 33:45That dude is everywhere.
- 33:49We have eCaptures out there again.
- 33:54Shared some content last night if you
- 33:55didn't see it.
- 33:56That dude takes fantastic pictures.
- 33:57He collaborated with us.
- 34:01So he's our photographer there.
- 34:07I don't have much more in me today,
- 34:08guys,
- 34:08but Hopper didn't get one of the spots.
- 34:15Do we know why?
- 34:16He said himself that if he was going
- 34:19to take one,
- 34:20he needed to know at least the night
- 34:22before so that he could get his mind
- 34:25right before he just jumped into it.
- 34:27And the initial person he was going to
- 34:30get it from wanted to test out his
- 34:32ankle.
- 34:33Excuse me.
- 34:35the next morning,
- 34:36like basically yesterday morning.
- 34:38And that wasn't going to be enough advance
- 34:39notice for, for Jason.
- 34:41That's the story.
- 34:42Whether or not that's true or not.
- 34:43I have absolutely no idea.
- 34:44Like they might've just told him.
- 34:46He said that on boys interrupted too.
- 34:48Yeah.
- 34:49Um, I just hate empty lanes.
- 34:55Yeah.
- 34:55I'm not a big fan either.
- 34:57And I mean, Bill dropped out back injury,
- 35:02uh,
- 35:05Oh, what's his name?
- 35:07The guy,
- 35:07whoever agreed to take Jason's money.
- 35:10Yeah.
- 35:11Dropped out as well.
- 35:13So,
- 35:13and I was at two outside lanes on
- 35:15the, I think on the second heat.
- 35:18So like they're going now, I don't know.
- 35:21It is what it is.
- 35:23It looks like Elisa Fuliano is going to
- 35:25withdraw after this event.
- 35:28Oh, a quad injury.
- 35:30Won't be able to complete the next one.
- 35:33Um,
- 35:36There's a lot of people, man.
- 35:37That wet rubber.
- 35:39And the wet sand.
- 35:41Maybe taking some people out.
- 35:43And the wet sand.
- 35:45Put a vest on.
- 35:46You know what?
- 35:47Don't put a vest on.
- 35:48Just go run on the beach when it's
- 35:51dry.
- 35:53Now, make that beach wet.
- 35:56Throw on a fourteen pound vest or twenty
- 35:57pound vest and go do the same run.
- 36:00Tired.
- 36:00Like your feet are digging into the sand.
- 36:03It is.
- 36:04Walking on it is not fun.
- 36:06Now you're trying to run, what was it,
- 36:08twelve hundred, something like that?
- 36:13Add in the sandbag complex and then
- 36:16getting over the log and whatnot,
- 36:18and now you're getting on the wet sand
- 36:20and trying to,
- 36:21and then they added all the ruts and
- 36:22whatnot from the gator that's running in
- 36:25front of them so they could have a
- 36:26little pace score or whatnot.
- 36:30Not ideal.
- 36:31How about that?
- 36:33Let's go with less than ideal.
- 36:35I don't like it, but that's just me.
- 36:43Any idea what's up with the Hiller hubbub?
- 36:46I didn't have my phone for like four
- 36:48hours this morning, so.
- 36:49Not a clue.
- 36:50Uh, Seve said this morning that like they,
- 36:53cause somebody had mentioned something
- 36:54about it in the chat and they went
- 36:56and looked and like,
- 36:57he didn't have any new stories up on
- 36:59his Instagram.
- 37:00Nobody's seen him since yesterday.
- 37:02He was there.
- 37:03I mean, the, the video he made,
- 37:04I was watching, uh, earlier.
- 37:07Um, he's clearly at water Palooza.
- 37:09I mean, he made that video though,
- 37:11the one we talked about yesterday.
- 37:12So like he's in Miami at the very
- 37:15least, but what's he doing?
- 37:17No idea.
- 37:20Okay.
- 37:22Something had to have happened because
- 37:24he's not just going to bug out for
- 37:26no particular reason.
- 37:28That's not how he's made.
- 37:29Everybody knows that.
- 37:31I mean, for Christ's sake,
- 37:32at the Northern Classic,
- 37:38Northern California, Spiegel got him.
- 37:41That's actually what I was going to bring
- 37:43up.
- 37:43He went and talked to Danny Spiegel.
- 37:46Like just right when he got there,
- 37:48just to get it out of the way.
- 37:49Hey,
- 37:49we're going to both be here all weekend.
- 37:53So I just want to talk to you
- 37:54about whatever.
- 37:55She was as respectful as I kind of
- 37:58expected her to be in that situation.
- 38:00And they went on about their business.
- 38:02So I don't see him just leaving for
- 38:05something unless something important
- 38:07happened.
- 38:14What are you doing?
- 38:15Twenty six three.
- 38:16I am doing twenty six point three at
- 38:18five thirty this afternoon at our gym head
- 38:21to head with one of the other coaches.
- 38:24Jay Burch is ten minutes out.
- 38:28Good luck, Birch.
- 38:34Good luck with that, guys.
- 38:39That's all I got in me today.
- 38:41It's fine, brother.
- 38:42Get you some rest.
- 38:43You need it.
- 38:43Yeah, I just I need to.
- 38:46Put on Waterpalooza, get on my couch,
- 38:48and call it a day.
- 38:49I love it.
