just right.

00:00:19.190 --> 00:00:20.811
Carol Ann on the mic,

00:00:20.850 --> 00:00:22.452
wants a star on the ice.

00:00:22.532 --> 00:00:24.193
Games athlete so strong,

00:00:24.213 --> 00:00:25.873
keeps the balance precise.

00:00:26.195 --> 00:00:28.795
And Jamie's in the house,

00:00:28.835 --> 00:00:29.657
the engine full of grit.

00:00:29.917 --> 00:00:31.597
Never backing down, down Thursday night.

00:00:36.582 --> 00:00:38.284
So buckle up, friends,

00:00:45.212 --> 00:00:51.838

00:00:53.180 --> 00:00:54.642

00:01:07.951 --> 00:01:10.112
we are two we're about to be three

00:01:11.093 --> 00:01:13.016
uh carolyn is just finishing up dinner

00:01:13.615 --> 00:01:15.537
being polite doing that off camera

00:01:16.527 --> 00:01:17.447
She'll be here soon.

00:01:19.268 --> 00:01:19.948
It's another week.

00:01:20.688 --> 00:01:21.769
I'm sitting here thinking, like,

00:01:22.049 --> 00:01:23.150
is there going to be a week, like,

00:01:23.171 --> 00:01:24.251
that we can just take off because

00:01:24.311 --> 00:01:25.111
nothing's happening?

00:01:25.352 --> 00:01:25.792
No.

00:01:25.871 --> 00:01:28.253
And then it's like CrossFit.

00:01:28.554 --> 00:01:29.713
It's as bad as the NFL.

00:01:29.754 --> 00:01:36.097
Like, it is every week.

00:01:36.138 --> 00:01:36.498
Yeah.

00:01:37.058 --> 00:01:39.539
Well, the CAC's busy, so that's good.

00:01:39.558 --> 00:01:40.140
Yeah.

00:01:40.260 --> 00:01:40.439
Yeah.

00:01:42.936 --> 00:01:44.957
um patrick clark just finished season two

00:01:44.998 --> 00:01:46.739
we were literally just talking about

00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:49.162
season two of lioness before we went on

00:01:49.183 --> 00:01:53.167
the air sure and i watched the first

00:01:53.206 --> 00:01:55.989
episode of season three this week which

00:01:56.170 --> 00:02:01.034
was phenomenal i haven't seen any is what

00:02:01.055 --> 00:02:04.317
we're talking about so yeah jamie has not

00:02:04.378 --> 00:02:04.959
seen it at all

00:02:08.002 --> 00:02:12.764
um so yeah crazy stuff it's it's but

00:02:12.824 --> 00:02:14.064
it is it is one of those shows

00:02:14.085 --> 00:02:17.566
that make you think and so like i

00:02:17.626 --> 00:02:20.727
like pairing that with like the hawk which

00:02:20.926 --> 00:02:24.049
is no think yeah we finished that did

00:02:24.068 --> 00:02:25.769
you finish it i haven't finished it yet

00:02:25.808 --> 00:02:29.610
but i'm maybe six episodes in okay

00:02:29.670 --> 00:02:31.692
wherever it's when he well i don't want

00:02:31.711 --> 00:02:32.592
to ruin anything

00:02:33.415 --> 00:02:34.818
Yeah.

00:02:34.858 --> 00:02:37.420
Easy watch.

00:02:37.540 --> 00:02:38.681
Yeah.

00:02:38.801 --> 00:02:40.685
And we started Ted Lasso this week.

00:02:41.786 --> 00:02:42.586
That's back.

00:02:43.127 --> 00:02:44.949
And then we finished Ride or Die.

00:02:45.009 --> 00:02:46.651
If you have not seen that on Prime...

00:02:48.024 --> 00:02:48.944
It is so good.

00:02:49.025 --> 00:02:51.447
It's Hannah Waddingham from Ted Lasso and

00:02:51.486 --> 00:02:54.169
Octavia Spencer and their best friends.

00:02:54.849 --> 00:02:56.411
And in the first fifteen minutes,

00:02:56.431 --> 00:02:58.652
you learn that Hannah Waddingham is a

00:02:58.693 --> 00:03:00.935
trained assassin and she's been hiding it

00:03:00.974 --> 00:03:02.735
from her best friend for twenty years.

00:03:02.876 --> 00:03:04.717
Yes, I saw the previews for this.

00:03:05.180 --> 00:03:07.461
And so it starts off as a very

00:03:08.241 --> 00:03:10.080
funny concept, right?

00:03:10.140 --> 00:03:10.901
Yeah.

00:03:10.961 --> 00:03:12.481
But it turns into a great,

00:03:12.722 --> 00:03:13.882
well-written spy.

00:03:14.301 --> 00:03:14.643
Okay.

00:03:15.163 --> 00:03:18.024
Series by the end.

00:03:18.063 --> 00:03:21.443
So highly recommend ride or die.

00:03:21.604 --> 00:03:22.564
We like,

00:03:22.625 --> 00:03:23.745
I was on the edge of my seat.

00:03:24.284 --> 00:03:25.485
Okay.

00:03:25.786 --> 00:03:27.425
We binged four episodes last night and

00:03:27.466 --> 00:03:29.326
today to finish it off.

00:03:30.387 --> 00:03:30.747
So good.

00:03:33.135 --> 00:03:35.056
Katie L says Jamie doesn't need to watch

00:03:35.137 --> 00:03:35.497
lioness.

00:03:35.537 --> 00:03:36.836
She is a lioness.

00:03:37.477 --> 00:03:42.177
Well, dang.

00:03:42.217 --> 00:03:43.899
Drew says bears going down against the

00:03:43.938 --> 00:03:44.318
pack.

00:03:45.158 --> 00:03:45.359
Well,

00:03:45.658 --> 00:03:47.079
my wife and I were figuring out our

00:03:47.118 --> 00:03:47.438
plans.

00:03:47.479 --> 00:03:50.960
We have tickets to the first bears Packers

00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:53.721
game in Lambeau field because of a great

00:03:53.760 --> 00:03:54.781
listener, Eric Mackey.

00:03:56.241 --> 00:03:57.421
And we're trying to figure out whether to

00:03:57.461 --> 00:03:58.222
fly or drive.

00:03:59.687 --> 00:04:01.628
And we're trying to price it all out

00:04:01.729 --> 00:04:03.269
and figuring out what is the most

00:04:03.348 --> 00:04:06.270
economical and what is like the easiest.

00:04:06.469 --> 00:04:08.189
There's no direct flight from Columbus to

00:04:08.210 --> 00:04:08.950
Milwaukee.

00:04:09.031 --> 00:04:09.411
Really?

00:04:09.790 --> 00:04:10.631
Can you believe that?

00:04:11.431 --> 00:04:11.991
Not really.

00:04:12.331 --> 00:04:14.171
So then we tried Chicago and then rent

00:04:14.192 --> 00:04:15.673
a car because it's only like an hour

00:04:15.733 --> 00:04:16.112
north.

00:04:16.372 --> 00:04:17.012
Yeah.

00:04:17.072 --> 00:04:19.733
And we're meeting Eric in Milwaukee and

00:04:19.793 --> 00:04:21.913
we're riding up with him to Green Bay.

00:04:22.033 --> 00:04:22.995
Okay.

00:04:23.014 --> 00:04:23.375
Yeah.

00:04:25.629 --> 00:04:28.711
And there's only a couple direct flights

00:04:28.732 --> 00:04:31.314
from Columbus to Chicago now,

00:04:31.814 --> 00:04:33.336
which baffles me.

00:04:33.536 --> 00:04:34.898
It used to be a direct flight all

00:04:34.937 --> 00:04:36.319
the time.

00:04:36.420 --> 00:04:39.062
Yeah.

00:04:39.101 --> 00:04:41.343
Because it's only a six-hour drive,

00:04:41.584 --> 00:04:42.906
so it should be just a quick...

00:04:44.007 --> 00:04:45.387
I don't want to go to Detroit before

00:04:45.447 --> 00:04:46.528
I go to Chicago.

00:04:46.548 --> 00:04:47.370
No, I wouldn't either.

00:04:47.389 --> 00:04:49.192
Yeah, that's...

00:04:51.238 --> 00:04:52.639
I feel like I had three stops on

00:04:52.658 --> 00:04:55.000
the way to California.

00:04:55.540 --> 00:04:57.240
It was a pain.

00:04:57.661 --> 00:04:58.581
If it was three stops,

00:04:58.641 --> 00:05:01.721
I'd just cancel my trip.

00:05:01.781 --> 00:05:02.781
I guess I could have done that.

00:05:04.182 --> 00:05:06.223
I did one stop to California.

00:05:06.242 --> 00:05:09.884
That was enough.

00:05:10.144 --> 00:05:11.624
But you fly out of a smaller airport,

00:05:11.663 --> 00:05:12.004
right?

00:05:12.244 --> 00:05:12.983
Grand Rapids?

00:05:13.004 --> 00:05:14.964
I usually fly out of Grand Rapids.

00:05:16.125 --> 00:05:18.565
I got really lucky flying out of Lansing

00:05:18.685 --> 00:05:19.706
and actually did get a

00:05:20.543 --> 00:05:22.663
I think a one-stop when I went to,

00:05:23.863 --> 00:05:25.463
um, Del Mar, I think,

00:05:27.404 --> 00:05:30.204
I think it went Lansing to Detroit and

00:05:30.264 --> 00:05:31.206
straight over to,

00:05:31.706 --> 00:05:33.185
and it's usually really hard to get

00:05:33.266 --> 00:05:34.045
flights out of Lansing.

00:05:35.165 --> 00:05:35.305
Yeah.

00:05:35.326 --> 00:05:40.567
I was Minnesota to the shirt.

00:05:41.468 --> 00:05:42.608
Tessa wants to see the shirt.

00:05:43.949 --> 00:05:44.928
I'm so proud of the shirts.

00:05:44.949 --> 00:05:45.889
They came out so nice.

00:05:51.653 --> 00:05:52.718
Jamie says it's a good fit.

00:05:53.321 --> 00:05:54.988
Yeah, perfect fit.

00:05:55.492 --> 00:05:56.055
Nice and soft.

00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:00.360
If you want yours or thirty dollars,

00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:01.860
you just Venmo me.

00:06:03.420 --> 00:06:05.380
Vicky had to take the night off because

00:06:05.740 --> 00:06:07.182
her husband's leaving town for a while.

00:06:07.742 --> 00:06:10.122
So just go to my Instagram.

00:06:10.523 --> 00:06:11.983
There's a Venmo thing there.

00:06:12.283 --> 00:06:13.103
Thirty two dollars.

00:06:13.144 --> 00:06:14.504
Just put your size, name,

00:06:14.903 --> 00:06:17.404
address in the comment section and I'll

00:06:17.425 --> 00:06:18.386
ship ship them out.

00:06:18.485 --> 00:06:19.985
And I just got a couple orders today,

00:06:20.625 --> 00:06:22.247
so I'll probably do another shipment

00:06:22.286 --> 00:06:23.127
tomorrow or Tuesday.

00:06:27.036 --> 00:06:28.677
A definite master show talking about

00:06:28.757 --> 00:06:29.718
airports next up.

00:06:29.737 --> 00:06:30.918
Which highway did you take?

00:06:32.338 --> 00:06:32.559
Yeah.

00:06:33.598 --> 00:06:34.740
Yeah.

00:06:34.779 --> 00:06:35.399
Masters.

00:06:35.420 --> 00:06:36.060
Speaking of masters,

00:06:36.100 --> 00:06:38.380
I had my twenty five year high school

00:06:38.401 --> 00:06:39.740
reunion yesterday.

00:06:43.482 --> 00:06:47.023
OK.

00:06:47.644 --> 00:06:47.843
Yeah.

00:06:49.884 --> 00:06:50.865
Wow.

00:06:50.904 --> 00:06:51.805
That makes me feel old.

00:06:53.305 --> 00:06:54.766
Not very many people came at all.

00:06:55.322 --> 00:06:56.302
yeah i graduated with like two hundred

00:06:56.322 --> 00:06:58.504
fifty people there was like twelve or

00:06:58.543 --> 00:07:05.406
thirteen of us there crazy um kdl i

00:07:05.427 --> 00:07:07.187
wore my cloud snow shirt to work lunch

00:07:07.266 --> 00:07:09.408
to a work lunch the other dude's reaction

00:07:09.447 --> 00:07:11.649

00:07:11.689 --> 00:07:13.689
more jacked than i thought i gave the

00:07:13.709 --> 00:07:16.511
shirt all the credit hey if you want

00:07:16.531 --> 00:07:17.350
to look jack too

00:07:20.992 --> 00:07:24.095
You can order a shirt as well.

00:07:24.115 --> 00:07:25.435
Larry Young's already wanting another

00:07:25.475 --> 00:07:25.716
color.

00:07:26.817 --> 00:07:30.079
Oh.

00:07:30.139 --> 00:07:31.199
You know how long it took me to

00:07:31.259 --> 00:07:32.081
get these in?

00:07:33.221 --> 00:07:35.562
And I still have like a bunch of

00:07:35.583 --> 00:07:37.165
them.

00:07:37.225 --> 00:07:39.146
And thank goodness I did inventory of the

00:07:39.165 --> 00:07:39.725
whole thing.

00:07:39.987 --> 00:07:43.149
And the ones that are being ordered the

00:07:43.189 --> 00:07:45.050
most are the sizes I ordered the most

00:07:45.149 --> 00:07:47.172
of.

00:07:47.471 --> 00:07:47.891
Perfect.

00:07:47.911 --> 00:07:48.833
So we're doing well.

00:07:51.940 --> 00:07:53.322
CrossFit keeps making fun of us.

00:07:53.341 --> 00:07:55.264
I know.

00:07:55.303 --> 00:07:56.165
So I did want to say,

00:07:56.285 --> 00:07:57.826
before we get into the CrossFit stuff,

00:07:59.766 --> 00:08:01.267
I watched Supergirl on Friday night.

00:08:01.809 --> 00:08:02.970
Yeah.

00:08:02.990 --> 00:08:03.911
I really enjoyed it.

00:08:05.211 --> 00:08:05.492
Really.

00:08:05.851 --> 00:08:08.353
I think because the bar was set so

00:08:08.394 --> 00:08:10.555
low by the critics and what everybody was

00:08:10.576 --> 00:08:11.276
saying about it,

00:08:11.757 --> 00:08:13.937
I went with zero expectation.

00:08:14.939 --> 00:08:16.560
And I just really enjoyed it as a

00:08:16.641 --> 00:08:17.120
fun movie.

00:08:19.214 --> 00:08:20.714
it's not going to win any Academy awards

00:08:20.735 --> 00:08:21.396
and that's fine.

00:08:21.995 --> 00:08:23.216
It just was fun.

00:08:23.435 --> 00:08:25.016
Okay.

00:08:25.076 --> 00:08:26.997
If you want to see super girl kick

00:08:27.016 --> 00:08:29.538
people's ass for an hour and a half,

00:08:30.598 --> 00:08:34.379
it's a good movie.

00:08:34.678 --> 00:08:40.880
And Jason Momoa as Lobo was fantastic.

00:08:40.980 --> 00:08:42.601
I feel like the critics are always wrong.

00:08:42.621 --> 00:08:47.202
Uh, I wouldn't say always wrong, but I,

00:08:47.222 --> 00:08:47.243
I,

00:08:49.071 --> 00:08:51.371
not everything has to be an Academy award

00:08:51.412 --> 00:08:52.011
winning movie.

00:08:52.232 --> 00:08:53.513
Correct.

00:08:53.592 --> 00:08:53.852
Right.

00:08:54.134 --> 00:08:55.693
And some of the stuff they like as

00:08:56.033 --> 00:08:56.875
Academy award winning.

00:08:56.914 --> 00:08:57.975
I'm like, that was weird.

00:08:57.995 --> 00:08:59.495
No, thanks.

00:08:59.576 --> 00:09:02.376
Yeah.

00:09:02.418 --> 00:09:03.977
Jason Momoa basically paid,

00:09:04.118 --> 00:09:04.999
played Jason Momoa,

00:09:05.359 --> 00:09:06.679
but that's who Lobo is.

00:09:06.740 --> 00:09:08.360
So it was like, perfect.

00:09:09.421 --> 00:09:11.022
It's like Kevin Costner has ever played

00:09:11.081 --> 00:09:13.423
anybody, but Kevin Costner.

00:09:13.503 --> 00:09:13.663
Yeah.

00:09:15.863 --> 00:09:17.183
Whether it's Bull Durham for Love of the

00:09:17.224 --> 00:09:19.586
Game, Dancing with Wolves,

00:09:19.625 --> 00:09:21.267
it's the same damn character in every

00:09:21.307 --> 00:09:27.072
movie.

00:09:27.231 --> 00:09:28.231
CrossFit says it's fine.

00:09:28.251 --> 00:09:29.613
Masters of the Universe was better,

00:09:29.653 --> 00:09:30.553
but similar ride.

00:09:31.095 --> 00:09:32.075
I have that in my queue.

00:09:32.095 --> 00:09:35.477
I don't think I've seen that either.

00:09:36.418 --> 00:09:37.418
It just came out.

00:09:38.460 --> 00:09:39.880
I think it only lasted in theaters a

00:09:39.941 --> 00:09:40.601
couple weeks.

00:09:40.721 --> 00:09:41.341
Okay.

00:09:45.854 --> 00:09:47.514
The issue is that everybody is comparing

00:09:47.554 --> 00:09:49.096
the DCU to the MCU.

00:09:49.916 --> 00:09:51.898
And for those of you who don't speak

00:09:51.957 --> 00:09:52.317
geek,

00:09:52.918 --> 00:09:58.400
that is DC Comics versus Marvel Comics.

00:09:58.422 --> 00:10:00.722
The Marvel Comics were much better off the

00:10:00.763 --> 00:10:03.725
bat with making movies other than the Dark

00:10:03.745 --> 00:10:06.826
Knight series with Batman and then the

00:10:06.865 --> 00:10:07.667
DCU.

00:10:08.506 --> 00:10:10.008
So he is correct.

00:10:11.708 --> 00:10:13.230
But this was fun.

00:10:13.350 --> 00:10:14.370
I really, really enjoyed it.

00:10:18.057 --> 00:10:19.839
Matt Damon also plays himself.

00:10:21.340 --> 00:10:24.003
Maybe.

00:10:24.062 --> 00:10:27.304
Maybe.

00:10:27.465 --> 00:10:31.248
We watched the Ben Affleck,

00:10:31.288 --> 00:10:31.928
not Matt Damon,

00:10:31.948 --> 00:10:35.351
but we watched The Accountant two weeks

00:10:35.392 --> 00:10:35.532
ago.

00:10:35.591 --> 00:10:40.056
I like both Accountant movies a lot.

00:10:40.076 --> 00:10:40.535
Yeah, they're great.

00:10:41.015 --> 00:10:42.697
I'm a huge Ben Affleck fan.

00:10:45.067 --> 00:10:46.288
I know that's not cool to be a

00:10:46.327 --> 00:10:47.227
Ben Affleck fan,

00:10:47.268 --> 00:10:49.908
but Argo was one of the best movies

00:10:49.948 --> 00:10:50.710
I've ever seen.

00:10:54.211 --> 00:10:57.893
Good Will Hunting is an all-time classic

00:10:57.952 --> 00:11:01.094
movie.

00:11:01.634 --> 00:11:02.715
Lex wants to know if we've seen The

00:11:02.774 --> 00:11:03.095
Odyssey.

00:11:03.154 --> 00:11:03.774
I have not.

00:11:04.735 --> 00:11:06.855
I do not believe that I have.

00:11:06.975 --> 00:11:08.697
It, again, just came out,

00:11:08.956 --> 00:11:09.817
so I'm assuming no.

00:11:09.857 --> 00:11:10.018
Then no.

00:11:11.610 --> 00:11:14.913
That's a Matt Damon, and it's a long,

00:11:15.053 --> 00:11:15.835
long movie.

00:11:15.914 --> 00:11:18.216
Okay.

00:11:18.256 --> 00:11:18.417
Like,

00:11:18.437 --> 00:11:19.658
you have to go on an Odyssey to

00:11:19.697 --> 00:11:20.378
watch the Odyssey.

00:11:20.398 --> 00:11:24.942
Okay.

00:11:25.062 --> 00:11:27.864
Is it like The Martian?

00:11:27.943 --> 00:11:29.205
It is longer than The Martian.

00:11:29.225 --> 00:11:29.304
Okay.

00:11:29.325 --> 00:11:29.426
Yeah.

00:11:32.107 --> 00:11:34.109
i think it's the same guy who did

00:11:34.188 --> 00:11:36.971
oppenheimer and actually who did the dark

00:11:36.990 --> 00:11:40.812
knight movies for dc um christopher nolan

00:11:40.832 --> 00:11:43.455
yep but but lately he just seems to

00:11:43.495 --> 00:11:46.056
be like into these super long epic movies

00:11:46.096 --> 00:11:50.519
like oppenheimer was what four hours long

00:11:50.938 --> 00:11:53.321
and i think this is like in that

00:11:53.441 --> 00:11:58.744
range i haven't seen it yet but i

00:11:58.783 --> 00:12:00.524
don't mind a long movie but four hours

00:12:00.565 --> 00:12:00.644
is

00:12:01.731 --> 00:12:03.673
Probably pushing it.

00:12:03.692 --> 00:12:04.653
Yeah.

00:12:04.673 --> 00:12:06.355
The other Ben Affleck movie, The Town.

00:12:06.495 --> 00:12:10.658
I love The Town.

00:12:10.957 --> 00:12:12.639
Lex's Odyssey is three hours long.

00:12:13.139 --> 00:12:18.182
That's fine.

00:12:18.201 --> 00:12:19.582
Question of the week for Scott.

00:12:19.663 --> 00:12:19.903
Whoa.

00:12:20.923 --> 00:12:21.083
Wow.

00:12:21.104 --> 00:12:23.245
Would you rather watch the Toxic Avenger

00:12:23.385 --> 00:12:25.687
anthology or do a hundred burpees for

00:12:25.767 --> 00:12:26.027
time?

00:12:28.308 --> 00:12:29.769
I'd probably rather do a hundred burpees

00:12:29.789 --> 00:12:30.149
for time.

00:12:35.365 --> 00:12:43.567
so uh matt damon is always trying to

00:12:43.586 --> 00:12:45.508
get home saving private ryan the martian

00:12:45.528 --> 00:12:49.629
the bourne movies i love the bourne movies

00:12:49.649 --> 00:12:51.629
yeah me too oceans eleven's one of my

00:12:51.668 --> 00:12:54.029
favorite movies of all time too with matt

00:12:54.070 --> 00:12:55.870
damon but he's not even really the main

00:12:56.149 --> 00:12:58.551
character uh

00:13:02.220 --> 00:13:03.640
Uh, oh, interstellar too.

00:13:03.760 --> 00:13:04.761
Yep.

00:13:04.961 --> 00:13:05.243
Um,

00:13:05.263 --> 00:13:06.703
the other thing I wanted to say is,

00:13:06.724 --> 00:13:08.884
uh, I am teaming up with the Glintons.

00:13:09.044 --> 00:13:12.028
Well, the one Glinton and Jeremy Williams,

00:13:12.187 --> 00:13:14.649
and we are doing a sports show every

00:13:14.690 --> 00:13:18.052
Tuesday night at six PM.

00:13:18.152 --> 00:13:19.232
It is not CrossFit.

00:13:19.734 --> 00:13:23.135
We are not talking CrossFit.

00:13:23.155 --> 00:13:24.856
There's already bets over under how long

00:13:24.876 --> 00:13:26.938
it'll take us to talk about CrossFit,

00:13:27.538 --> 00:13:28.961
but it is going to be an other

00:13:29.020 --> 00:13:29.841
sports show.

00:13:30.442 --> 00:13:30.782
Okay.

00:13:32.058 --> 00:13:32.698
With Garrett?

00:13:33.499 --> 00:13:35.220
With Garrett and Jeremy Williams.

00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:36.139
Okay.

00:13:36.220 --> 00:13:36.759
And maybe Corey.

00:13:36.779 --> 00:13:40.581
All right.

00:13:40.620 --> 00:13:41.041
So we'll see.

00:13:43.461 --> 00:13:49.702
There we go.

00:13:51.182 --> 00:13:52.844
And another shirt.

00:13:54.163 --> 00:13:55.083
And looking good.

00:13:57.144 --> 00:13:57.884
Looking good.

00:13:58.664 --> 00:14:00.265
I think that shirt moves you up Hiller's

00:14:00.326 --> 00:14:01.546
list all the way to an A.

00:14:03.482 --> 00:14:04.263
I don't know about that.

00:14:06.144 --> 00:14:08.384
But I'll take it.

00:14:08.465 --> 00:14:09.225
I like it though.

00:14:09.524 --> 00:14:10.565
This is a very good color.

00:14:10.725 --> 00:14:11.326
I love this blue.

00:14:12.525 --> 00:14:13.726
Although mine looks a different blue than

00:14:13.767 --> 00:14:14.006
yours.

00:14:15.106 --> 00:14:15.506
You think?

00:14:16.027 --> 00:14:16.868
I think it's just lighting.

00:14:18.988 --> 00:14:20.369
They're all the same color in the box.

00:14:20.408 --> 00:14:20.769
Trust me.

00:14:25.770 --> 00:14:27.332
Um, so cool.

00:14:27.854 --> 00:14:28.254
Uh,

00:14:28.274 --> 00:14:29.798
the other thing I wanted to talk about

00:14:29.857 --> 00:14:30.919
real quick before we get into the

00:14:30.940 --> 00:14:31.581
Christmas stuff is, uh,

00:14:32.501 --> 00:14:35.868
my dumb cohost did the impossible mile

00:14:37.149 --> 00:14:38.852
this week.

00:14:38.893 --> 00:14:39.173
Why?

00:14:40.875 --> 00:14:42.456
We've been wanting to do it for like,

00:14:42.957 --> 00:14:43.278
I don't know,

00:14:43.298 --> 00:14:44.958
like a year at least we've been talking

00:14:44.979 --> 00:14:45.820
about it at the gym.

00:14:46.399 --> 00:14:48.922
And then I saw they like,

00:14:48.942 --> 00:14:51.384
we're doing it at the games and Veronica

00:14:51.403 --> 00:14:52.583
and I were going to go,

00:14:52.604 --> 00:14:53.445
go try to do it.

00:14:54.105 --> 00:14:55.125
And then I was like, nah, we'll just,

00:14:55.145 --> 00:14:56.868
cause there's people at the gym who wanted

00:14:56.888 --> 00:14:57.388
to do it too.

00:14:57.567 --> 00:14:57.927
So I was like,

00:14:57.988 --> 00:14:59.068
we'll just program in it,

00:14:59.229 --> 00:15:00.230
program it when we get back.

00:15:01.471 --> 00:15:02.611
Oh, and it was,

00:15:03.251 --> 00:15:07.433
it was poor Jim's seventieth birthday on

00:15:07.474 --> 00:15:07.933
Thursday.

00:15:08.014 --> 00:15:09.394
And I programmed it for that day so

00:15:09.433 --> 00:15:11.394
that people would come and spend the day

00:15:11.414 --> 00:15:11.735
with him.

00:15:12.755 --> 00:15:13.755
Oh my gosh.

00:15:14.937 --> 00:15:15.537
It was rough.

00:15:15.817 --> 00:15:17.498
How long did that take?

00:15:17.597 --> 00:15:18.957
It took me forty nine minutes,

00:15:18.999 --> 00:15:20.119
but it took a lot of people like

00:15:20.178 --> 00:15:22.240
seventy five minutes.

00:15:24.610 --> 00:15:27.133
jim peeper for people who don't know is

00:15:27.153 --> 00:15:30.115
uh one of the members of jamie's gym

00:15:30.195 --> 00:15:32.996
and he is a former crossfit games podium

00:15:33.236 --> 00:15:36.860
winner in the masters division um and it

00:15:36.899 --> 00:15:38.100
was the seventieth birthday which is

00:15:38.140 --> 00:15:40.381
really cool now he's seventy plus i know

00:15:40.422 --> 00:15:41.643
now he can be in the new category

00:15:42.583 --> 00:15:47.746
yeah yeah um but i actually texted jamie

00:15:48.807 --> 00:15:50.389
and she said it would did you not

00:15:50.428 --> 00:15:51.470
say it was a mistake

00:15:52.289 --> 00:15:54.431
I, well, yeah, when we finished it,

00:15:54.490 --> 00:15:57.072
I was like, I was like, never again.

00:15:57.413 --> 00:15:58.072
Like, that's not,

00:15:58.092 --> 00:15:59.594
that's not something I'll ever do again.

00:15:59.754 --> 00:16:01.695
And in midway through it, I was like,

00:16:02.195 --> 00:16:04.495
we need to change this for the night

00:16:04.515 --> 00:16:04.956
class.

00:16:05.797 --> 00:16:08.818
Cause like nobody should be doing this.

00:16:09.078 --> 00:16:10.619
It was, it needed to be partner.

00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:11.279
It needed to be,

00:16:11.539 --> 00:16:12.539
which a lot of people,

00:16:12.701 --> 00:16:15.442
I had already put it in leveled out

00:16:15.461 --> 00:16:16.042
level method.

00:16:16.062 --> 00:16:18.322
So a lot of people were already scaling

00:16:18.363 --> 00:16:18.443
it.

00:16:18.484 --> 00:16:19.744
Like a lot of people did it.

00:16:19.764 --> 00:16:21.245
Two hundred meters of the movement.

00:16:21.962 --> 00:16:24.144
And then jogged in two hundred meters and

00:16:24.164 --> 00:16:25.905
then the two hundred of the next movement.

00:16:25.946 --> 00:16:27.547
So they did like half the work.

00:16:28.587 --> 00:16:30.009
What I tried to get my husband to

00:16:30.028 --> 00:16:31.168
do because he came at six.

00:16:31.669 --> 00:16:31.909
I was like,

00:16:31.929 --> 00:16:34.211
you should do because I the only thing

00:16:34.231 --> 00:16:35.633
that really bothered me was the burpee

00:16:35.673 --> 00:16:36.133
broad jump.

00:16:37.514 --> 00:16:38.094
And it starts with that.

00:16:38.114 --> 00:16:39.174
So you're just you're there for like

00:16:39.195 --> 00:16:40.576
twenty five minutes doing burpee broad

00:16:40.596 --> 00:16:40.775
jumps.

00:16:40.816 --> 00:16:42.076
It just takes forever.

00:16:42.657 --> 00:16:43.638
And then you're annoyed with the whole

00:16:43.658 --> 00:16:43.998
thing.

00:16:44.578 --> 00:16:45.639
So, yeah.

00:16:46.769 --> 00:16:48.451
I had told him, I was like,

00:16:48.591 --> 00:16:49.873
you should just do a hundred meters of

00:16:49.893 --> 00:16:50.513
burpee, brow jump,

00:16:50.533 --> 00:16:51.813
a hundred meters of lunging,

00:16:51.833 --> 00:16:53.556
a hundred meters of bear crawl, jog,

00:16:53.615 --> 00:16:54.636
and do four laps of that.

00:16:54.657 --> 00:16:55.537
So it was like broken up,

00:16:56.158 --> 00:16:56.518
but he did.

00:16:56.538 --> 00:16:57.019
He was like, no,

00:16:57.038 --> 00:16:58.259
you guys all did it the right way.

00:16:58.559 --> 00:17:04.124
He's just as stubborn as me.

00:17:04.525 --> 00:17:05.464
We went to a track.

00:17:06.226 --> 00:17:07.707
So even in the evening classes,

00:17:08.288 --> 00:17:09.067
they went to the track.

00:17:09.228 --> 00:17:09.548
Yep.

00:17:09.808 --> 00:17:09.989
Yep.

00:17:10.009 --> 00:17:10.930
The gym was shut that day.

00:17:10.990 --> 00:17:12.371
I was like, show up at the track.

00:17:12.730 --> 00:17:12.991
Cool.

00:17:13.451 --> 00:17:13.551
Yep.

00:17:14.320 --> 00:17:16.801
the video i saw was of aaron yes

00:17:17.061 --> 00:17:19.083
and he looked miserable and that was the

00:17:19.103 --> 00:17:20.923
burpee broad jump so that's at the

00:17:20.963 --> 00:17:23.586
beginning already looking miserable i

00:17:23.605 --> 00:17:25.306
think i snapped i think i had snapped

00:17:25.326 --> 00:17:28.188
you scott like the lunges and the bear

00:17:28.248 --> 00:17:30.189
crawl so like a little bit of each

00:17:30.249 --> 00:17:34.851
lap yep all of aaron though and all

00:17:34.931 --> 00:17:38.393
of all of him looking miserable how far

00:17:38.432 --> 00:17:40.294
how far into the burpee broad jump where

00:17:40.314 --> 00:17:42.055
you're like i shouldn't have programmed

00:17:42.075 --> 00:17:42.694
this for the class

00:17:43.507 --> 00:17:48.811
Probably just short of two hundred meters.

00:17:48.932 --> 00:17:53.015
I was like, this is a terrible idea.

00:17:53.115 --> 00:17:55.958
It just and like the last time we

00:17:55.978 --> 00:17:57.778
did like a high rock last summer,

00:17:58.319 --> 00:18:01.942
we had done some high rocks style workout.

00:18:02.083 --> 00:18:04.025
And I don't know what it is,

00:18:04.065 --> 00:18:06.567
but I I can't do burpee broad jumps

00:18:07.147 --> 00:18:08.127
and not be crazy.

00:18:09.189 --> 00:18:11.832
like the front my tibialis is like wrecked

00:18:11.872 --> 00:18:14.314
like i still today am like in pain

00:18:14.354 --> 00:18:16.454
walking around the rest of me feels fine

00:18:16.494 --> 00:18:18.936
now um or what three days out yesterday

00:18:18.977 --> 00:18:20.358
i was still pretty sore like all over

00:18:20.419 --> 00:18:24.481
even my shoulders um but the front of

00:18:24.501 --> 00:18:26.844
my shins kill i don't know what it

00:18:26.884 --> 00:18:29.286
is i don't know i it's probably just

00:18:29.306 --> 00:18:30.606
the way i land when i broad jump

00:18:31.027 --> 00:18:32.388
i don't even i do not like broad

00:18:32.409 --> 00:18:33.730
jumps at all well you would be lifting

00:18:33.849 --> 00:18:33.950
your

00:18:34.423 --> 00:18:36.665
lifting your feet up probably reaching and

00:18:36.685 --> 00:18:38.367
it's just that motion that you're not used

00:18:38.387 --> 00:18:38.548
to.

00:18:39.229 --> 00:18:40.851
Like if you're doing like a box jump,

00:18:40.891 --> 00:18:42.792
you're just a quick but just the amount

00:18:42.833 --> 00:18:44.015
of times that you're gonna have to

00:18:44.035 --> 00:18:44.756
dorsiflex there.

00:18:44.776 --> 00:18:47.499
Yeah, it's gonna, it's gonna get you.

00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:48.599
Yeah,

00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:50.520
my son did it with us at noon

00:18:50.861 --> 00:18:53.482
and he he went out hot like he

00:18:53.502 --> 00:18:55.384
was like fifty meters ahead of me on

00:18:55.403 --> 00:18:56.203
the burpee broad jump.

00:18:56.565 --> 00:18:58.184
He like he can burpee broad jump like

00:18:58.365 --> 00:18:59.465
two to two to one to me.

00:18:59.625 --> 00:19:01.126
Like his jump is just far.

00:19:01.287 --> 00:19:02.688
And I just was I was doing him

00:19:02.728 --> 00:19:03.647
quick but short.

00:19:04.568 --> 00:19:07.390
And I finally like he sort of like

00:19:07.410 --> 00:19:08.431
started to die towards the end of the

00:19:08.451 --> 00:19:09.030
burpee broad jump.

00:19:09.090 --> 00:19:10.852
I caught him and I just I like

00:19:10.912 --> 00:19:11.292
lunges.

00:19:11.333 --> 00:19:12.173
So that didn't bother me.

00:19:12.212 --> 00:19:13.713
Everyone else is like dying on the lunges.

00:19:16.442 --> 00:19:18.424
You know what it sounds like Jamie needs?

00:19:18.625 --> 00:19:19.786
Some Playa with Brevo.

00:19:20.106 --> 00:19:20.487
I do.

00:19:20.807 --> 00:19:22.489
But I always comment on Carol and stuff.

00:19:22.548 --> 00:19:24.369
I'm like, I can't even do...

00:19:25.431 --> 00:19:28.173
I couldn't even do half of the stuff.

00:19:29.755 --> 00:19:30.915
I went filming today,

00:19:30.955 --> 00:19:32.557
so I'm all done writing my program.

00:19:32.617 --> 00:19:35.240
Now it's about going to film every single

00:19:35.279 --> 00:19:35.621
drill.

00:19:36.602 --> 00:19:36.882
And

00:19:38.358 --> 00:19:39.660
It's going to take me so long to

00:19:39.700 --> 00:19:41.320
film every single drill that I have.

00:19:41.881 --> 00:19:43.261
You need to send me some of it

00:19:43.301 --> 00:19:46.605
and I need to film scaled versions for

00:19:46.704 --> 00:19:46.825
you.

00:19:46.845 --> 00:19:48.566
No, I am.

00:19:48.605 --> 00:19:50.426
Like I did like a hurdle jump,

00:19:50.727 --> 00:19:52.028
like a lateral low hurdle jump.

00:19:52.048 --> 00:19:53.489
But then I also had cones to the

00:19:53.528 --> 00:19:55.170
side just to show that you can also

00:19:55.210 --> 00:19:56.730
just use cones if you don't feel like.

00:19:56.770 --> 00:19:58.231
But you make it look too easy.

00:19:58.271 --> 00:19:59.212
You need the scaled.

00:19:59.232 --> 00:20:01.835
I'm working on it though.

00:20:02.881 --> 00:20:04.682
You need Jamie to do the Teemu version

00:20:04.903 --> 00:20:05.624
of the...

00:20:06.505 --> 00:20:08.507
But it's the first week it starts.

00:20:10.348 --> 00:20:11.048
It's foundation.

00:20:13.251 --> 00:20:14.173
I'm not going to do all of my

00:20:14.192 --> 00:20:15.073
crazy things on that.

00:20:16.335 --> 00:20:17.336
But there's a good progression.

00:20:19.097 --> 00:20:20.598
Jamie, does your gym do Sentinel?

00:20:21.160 --> 00:20:21.480
No,

00:20:21.900 --> 00:20:23.781
we do not do Sentinel as a gym.

00:20:24.942 --> 00:20:26.244
We probably about...

00:20:28.226 --> 00:20:29.326
Two, three months ago,

00:20:29.367 --> 00:20:31.430
we switched over from Training Think Tank.

00:20:32.111 --> 00:20:34.134
I've done a Training Think Tank affiliate

00:20:34.173 --> 00:20:35.996
programming for like four years.

00:20:36.537 --> 00:20:37.617
The day they came out with it,

00:20:37.698 --> 00:20:38.398
we've done that.

00:20:38.900 --> 00:20:40.501
And about two or three months ago,

00:20:40.541 --> 00:20:43.325
we switched over to HillerFit as a gym.

00:20:44.205 --> 00:20:45.007
So that's what we do as a gym.

00:20:45.027 --> 00:20:45.468
How do you like that?

00:20:48.209 --> 00:20:48.951
I like it.

00:20:49.692 --> 00:20:52.096
The gym does not seem to love it.

00:20:54.058 --> 00:20:54.941
Like some do.

00:20:55.622 --> 00:20:56.082
It's just,

00:20:56.163 --> 00:20:58.125
there's like a lot of like some high

00:20:58.165 --> 00:20:59.627
rep stuff that they're like,

00:21:00.563 --> 00:21:01.502
they feel beat up.

00:21:01.722 --> 00:21:03.983
I really need to like emphasize people

00:21:04.223 --> 00:21:05.305
like scaling down.

00:21:05.944 --> 00:21:07.065
There's just a lot of people who,

00:21:07.565 --> 00:21:08.586
cause I level it out.

00:21:08.726 --> 00:21:11.626
And if I put the RX plus version

00:21:11.727 --> 00:21:12.487
in at all,

00:21:13.287 --> 00:21:14.887
I have people thinking they need to do

00:21:15.067 --> 00:21:17.128
RX plus and nobody needs to be doing

00:21:17.229 --> 00:21:17.788
RX plus.

00:21:18.689 --> 00:21:18.888
Um,

00:21:18.949 --> 00:21:20.410
it's more in there for me and then

00:21:20.450 --> 00:21:21.130
like level down.

00:21:21.170 --> 00:21:23.191
But there's too many people who like still

00:21:23.230 --> 00:21:24.691
try to do what they would consider their

00:21:24.730 --> 00:21:25.171
color.

00:21:25.451 --> 00:21:26.271
And I'm like,

00:21:26.392 --> 00:21:27.711
you guys all need to just back down

00:21:27.912 --> 00:21:29.452
till we get comfortable with this.

00:21:31.673 --> 00:21:33.434
everything that i've seen from him when he

00:21:33.454 --> 00:21:35.215
would post his his programming like i

00:21:35.236 --> 00:21:37.498
think it's very smart and like yeah well

00:21:37.538 --> 00:21:38.999
done i don't know what he's done for

00:21:39.038 --> 00:21:41.401
like affiliate programming but i i follow

00:21:41.421 --> 00:21:43.442
his like affiliate page yeah yeah okay so

00:21:43.462 --> 00:21:45.464
that is yeah i like his stuff and

00:21:45.525 --> 00:21:47.365
it's it's got some creative things and

00:21:47.385 --> 00:21:52.871
it's probably good tessa i i do follow

00:21:52.911 --> 00:21:56.453
sentinel yes yes i yes i follow sentinel

00:21:56.634 --> 00:21:57.035
it's just

00:21:58.156 --> 00:21:59.477
a little, it would be a little much.

00:21:59.577 --> 00:22:00.317
I mean, honestly,

00:22:00.698 --> 00:22:01.798
I don't know when I compare it to

00:22:02.298 --> 00:22:04.679
Hiller fit, maybe it wouldn't,

00:22:04.919 --> 00:22:05.779
wouldn't be, but I,

00:22:05.960 --> 00:22:07.720
if I scaled all of it,

00:22:07.759 --> 00:22:10.240
I follow the compete in Sentinel,

00:22:10.260 --> 00:22:12.061
which is just, it's far too long.

00:22:12.521 --> 00:22:15.482
I suppose I could swap over to the

00:22:15.502 --> 00:22:17.384
classic track and it would maybe fit in

00:22:17.403 --> 00:22:17.804
an hour,

00:22:18.203 --> 00:22:20.045
but then I'm still doing something

00:22:20.085 --> 00:22:20.545
different.

00:22:21.204 --> 00:22:23.205
If I'm doing like the whole thing is

00:22:23.226 --> 00:22:23.986
like, I'm trying to get,

00:22:24.881 --> 00:22:26.741
I'm trying to not double up all the

00:22:26.781 --> 00:22:28.083
time on everything I do.

00:22:28.502 --> 00:22:29.923
So I'm trying to find something that I

00:22:29.943 --> 00:22:33.727
can do class wide weekly and add in

00:22:34.366 --> 00:22:37.509
a piece, you know, from Sentinel.

00:22:37.548 --> 00:22:40.711
So when I do the Sentinel workouts,

00:22:40.770 --> 00:22:41.191
they fit.

00:22:41.270 --> 00:22:42.291
If I do the classic,

00:22:42.352 --> 00:22:43.532
I don't do the compete.

00:22:43.972 --> 00:22:45.294
It easily fits in an hour.

00:22:47.289 --> 00:22:49.330
And they rate up like four different

00:22:49.371 --> 00:22:51.352
scales for the workout.

00:22:51.451 --> 00:22:52.972
It is super easy to use.

00:22:55.574 --> 00:22:57.213
I can't say enough good things about how

00:22:57.354 --> 00:22:57.575
easy.

00:22:57.714 --> 00:22:59.335
I've done a couple other ones.

00:22:59.795 --> 00:23:01.316
That's been the easiest one for me to

00:23:01.355 --> 00:23:04.156
follow because it gives so many scaling

00:23:04.217 --> 00:23:04.696
options.

00:23:05.577 --> 00:23:08.798
And they're very clear and precise in how

00:23:08.838 --> 00:23:11.500
they describe everything.

00:23:11.619 --> 00:23:12.921
I think I just saw that they have

00:23:12.961 --> 00:23:13.260
like a

00:23:13.931 --> 00:23:15.971
low equipment that they added as well.

00:23:16.031 --> 00:23:16.612
I think recently,

00:23:16.632 --> 00:23:17.932
I don't know if that matches up to

00:23:17.952 --> 00:23:18.932
the classic or if it's something

00:23:18.972 --> 00:23:19.334
different.

00:23:19.354 --> 00:23:21.494
But I saw that's probably something

00:23:21.555 --> 00:23:21.974
different.

00:23:22.575 --> 00:23:24.675
Because even the classic has some

00:23:24.695 --> 00:23:25.876
equipment that I don't have.

00:23:25.896 --> 00:23:32.278
And I have to like sub in things.

00:23:33.339 --> 00:23:35.340
A classic from anyone is a tough sell

00:23:35.361 --> 00:23:37.942
to members if they've done ABC stuff.

00:23:39.202 --> 00:23:40.702
I agree, it's effective stuff,

00:23:40.762 --> 00:23:42.064
but members get squirrels.

00:23:42.570 --> 00:23:45.113
they sure do man i'm never like i

00:23:45.133 --> 00:23:47.214
just try to not even listen to the

00:23:47.255 --> 00:23:48.476
feedback anymore because everyone's gonna

00:23:48.496 --> 00:23:52.140
have a complaint um and it's just i

00:23:52.160 --> 00:23:53.480
don't know it's nice to switch it up

00:23:53.621 --> 00:23:54.741
different equipment different movements

00:23:54.761 --> 00:23:56.202
like we did for a while there we

00:23:56.303 --> 00:23:58.525
did like three weeks of toes to ring

00:23:58.664 --> 00:24:01.268
and some people really were excited about

00:24:01.407 --> 00:24:03.529
getting a different movement i mean some

00:24:03.569 --> 00:24:04.631
like they can't do total bar but they

00:24:04.651 --> 00:24:06.412
can do total ring so that was fun

00:24:06.432 --> 00:24:08.173
for some people oh

00:24:08.933 --> 00:24:10.634
My biggest thing is if you're not

00:24:10.674 --> 00:24:11.275
competing,

00:24:11.835 --> 00:24:13.395
there should be some elements of fun to

00:24:13.455 --> 00:24:13.496
it.

00:24:13.516 --> 00:24:15.757
Totally agree.

00:24:15.876 --> 00:24:18.337
You're not there to go to the games.

00:24:18.738 --> 00:24:20.617
You're there to get fit and it should

00:24:20.637 --> 00:24:21.098
be fun.

00:24:21.159 --> 00:24:22.318
It should be a thing that you go

00:24:22.358 --> 00:24:24.180
do with your friends and you just get

00:24:24.220 --> 00:24:24.599
fitter.

00:24:25.180 --> 00:24:28.441
And when my gym switched to Comptrain,

00:24:28.820 --> 00:24:29.821
I lost all the fun.

00:24:31.186 --> 00:24:32.587
That was my biggest complaint with

00:24:32.627 --> 00:24:36.030
Comtrain is it was all about competing and

00:24:36.090 --> 00:24:38.252
getting to the games and doing all this

00:24:38.333 --> 00:24:39.093
dumbbell work.

00:24:39.192 --> 00:24:43.115
And it lost the fun aspect of things.

00:24:45.878 --> 00:24:47.880
And so that's what I loved about Polaris.

00:24:47.920 --> 00:24:51.923
Christy was so good about, yeah,

00:24:52.022 --> 00:24:53.124
she trains for the games,

00:24:53.203 --> 00:24:55.006
but the class work is fun.

00:24:55.645 --> 00:24:58.367
Interval work can be fun even though it's

00:24:58.407 --> 00:24:58.969
interval work.

00:25:02.051 --> 00:25:05.415
um but yeah i look that's my favorite

00:25:05.496 --> 00:25:08.940
programming of all time is christie's and

00:25:08.980 --> 00:25:16.086
i miss her dearly um agree there everyone

00:25:16.106 --> 00:25:17.628
did com train when it first got big

00:25:17.669 --> 00:25:19.991
we all got fit and super bored yeah

00:25:26.824 --> 00:25:26.864
Uh,

00:25:26.903 --> 00:25:28.625
you didn't like bike buy-ins and three

00:25:28.664 --> 00:25:31.926
minutes of overhead squats on repeats.

00:25:31.967 --> 00:25:32.728
Not so much.

00:25:35.608 --> 00:25:37.451
Um,

00:25:37.490 --> 00:25:40.471
so I wanted to talk about the CrossFit

00:25:40.531 --> 00:25:43.614
athlete council made recommendations to

00:25:43.673 --> 00:25:44.394
CrossFit.

00:25:45.335 --> 00:25:45.414
Um,

00:25:45.535 --> 00:25:46.875
I put it in our notes what those

00:25:46.915 --> 00:25:47.717
recommendations were.

00:25:47.737 --> 00:25:49.377
I have them, uh,

00:25:49.397 --> 00:25:51.959
their Instagram posts to pull up, uh,

00:25:51.999 --> 00:25:52.980
in full detail.

00:25:55.723 --> 00:25:56.846
If I can find it again.

00:25:58.669 --> 00:26:01.412
I have so many things queued up.

00:26:03.414 --> 00:26:03.816
Here we go.

00:26:06.561 --> 00:26:09.663
so um the first recommendation and i just

00:26:09.683 --> 00:26:11.226
want to get your feedback on this is

00:26:11.826 --> 00:26:13.547
and i know the feedback on this because

00:26:13.606 --> 00:26:16.308
we have talked about it endlessly over the

00:26:16.348 --> 00:26:18.951
last two seasons number one is the opening

00:26:18.990 --> 00:26:20.853
quarterfinal should be one continuous

00:26:20.913 --> 00:26:23.213
leaderboard making the top five hundred

00:26:23.253 --> 00:26:24.955
men and women individuals eligible to

00:26:25.016 --> 00:26:31.180
complete compete at semifinals yeah we've

00:26:31.200 --> 00:26:32.201
been asking for it right

00:26:35.017 --> 00:26:35.797
Yeah, I think that's good.

00:26:36.038 --> 00:26:36.538
Like I have,

00:26:37.317 --> 00:26:38.259
I've been saying that forever.

00:26:38.298 --> 00:26:39.838
Like the open style workouts are a

00:26:39.858 --> 00:26:41.039
different style of workouts.

00:26:41.140 --> 00:26:42.019
And then you have the quarterfinals,

00:26:42.039 --> 00:26:43.121
which is a different style workout.

00:26:43.800 --> 00:26:45.221
And I don't think that the open should

00:26:45.241 --> 00:26:45.582
get a race.

00:26:45.622 --> 00:26:46.501
It makes the open matter.

00:26:46.521 --> 00:26:48.623
I like it.

00:26:48.723 --> 00:26:50.403
I've always liked that.

00:26:50.423 --> 00:26:50.584
Yeah.

00:26:50.624 --> 00:26:51.664
I really like that.

00:26:51.765 --> 00:26:53.266
It's the one week too.

00:26:53.286 --> 00:26:54.925
Like they could have made the leaderboard

00:26:54.987 --> 00:26:55.626
continue on,

00:26:55.686 --> 00:26:58.167
even if it was like last year's format,

00:26:58.847 --> 00:27:00.108
a month and a half later or whatever.

00:27:00.548 --> 00:27:01.470
I really liked that.

00:27:01.509 --> 00:27:04.310
They moved the open up like two weeks.

00:27:04.929 --> 00:27:06.651
So I feel like we're going to basically

00:27:06.851 --> 00:27:09.313
end when the Open ended last year,

00:27:09.333 --> 00:27:10.153
and we're going to be done with

00:27:10.173 --> 00:27:10.713
quarterfinals,

00:27:11.355 --> 00:27:14.758
which was our complaint last year, right?

00:27:14.778 --> 00:27:14.877
Well,

00:27:14.897 --> 00:27:18.661
it gives two more weeks for the semifinals

00:27:19.201 --> 00:27:22.324
to use this leaderboard as opposed to

00:27:22.424 --> 00:27:24.306
invites and their own qualifiers.

00:27:24.365 --> 00:27:25.166
Right, right.

00:27:27.403 --> 00:27:29.722
But the thing that I think is frustrating

00:27:29.762 --> 00:27:31.483
for me is the number of people who

00:27:31.604 --> 00:27:33.104
want the open scrapped,

00:27:33.544 --> 00:27:35.164
who think that it's useless.

00:27:35.785 --> 00:27:37.785
It's still a valid test for certain

00:27:37.845 --> 00:27:38.325
things.

00:27:38.785 --> 00:27:40.625
And when you add in the other four

00:27:40.705 --> 00:27:43.405
or five workouts and it becomes a part

00:27:43.445 --> 00:27:44.205
of the whole,

00:27:44.625 --> 00:27:46.666
it even makes a more complete test.

00:27:47.686 --> 00:27:50.426
And it lets you open up the quarterfinals

00:27:50.988 --> 00:27:52.867
to be even higher skill.

00:27:55.301 --> 00:27:55.923
Yeah, for sure.

00:27:56.083 --> 00:27:56.303
Yeah.

00:27:57.025 --> 00:27:59.728
Because you see a lot of people who

00:27:59.769 --> 00:28:00.269
are really,

00:28:00.308 --> 00:28:02.873
really good at high skill gymnastics and

00:28:02.932 --> 00:28:04.414
very, very heavyweights.

00:28:04.915 --> 00:28:06.157
But if you ask them to go light

00:28:06.557 --> 00:28:08.741
and fast, they're not that good.

00:28:09.462 --> 00:28:10.022
And they have a hole.

00:28:10.884 --> 00:28:13.286
and when we just count the quarterfinal or

00:28:13.306 --> 00:28:15.686
even the semifinal let's say but well for

00:28:15.727 --> 00:28:18.147
this purpose the quarterfinal they can

00:28:18.968 --> 00:28:21.429
hide their hole very very well and then

00:28:21.709 --> 00:28:23.390
just focus on the high skill heavy weights

00:28:23.470 --> 00:28:25.810
and like that's not what fitness is it's

00:28:26.131 --> 00:28:27.651
not just that you have to also be

00:28:27.671 --> 00:28:29.071
able to do the rest so i think

00:28:29.092 --> 00:28:31.732
it's it makes sense it's going to give

00:28:31.792 --> 00:28:34.134
people you know seven maybe eight scores

00:28:34.153 --> 00:28:35.855
that they're we all took the same test

00:28:36.214 --> 00:28:38.214
now from there who gets to go to

00:28:38.234 --> 00:28:38.855
semi-finals

00:28:39.875 --> 00:28:41.498
I think that's way better.

00:28:41.518 --> 00:28:45.080
Agreed.

00:28:45.121 --> 00:28:46.402
Yeah, I've seen a lot of comments like,

00:28:46.422 --> 00:28:46.741
oh,

00:28:46.781 --> 00:28:48.864
you're going to have to change the way

00:28:49.344 --> 00:28:50.125
the ompens run.

00:28:50.144 --> 00:28:51.286
You need to add a lift in the

00:28:51.385 --> 00:28:51.766
ompen.

00:28:51.786 --> 00:28:53.708
And I mean,

00:28:53.748 --> 00:28:55.809
we go through this every year and people

00:28:55.829 --> 00:28:56.849
complain about the programming.

00:28:58.451 --> 00:29:00.653
The base of the pyramid is metabolic

00:29:00.693 --> 00:29:01.153
conditioning.

00:29:01.193 --> 00:29:03.076
I feel like people are not aerobically fit

00:29:03.115 --> 00:29:05.116
enough.

00:29:05.136 --> 00:29:06.858
They just want the heavy lift.

00:29:10.711 --> 00:29:12.775
Does this mean videos are on our system?

00:29:13.256 --> 00:29:13.615
I know.

00:29:14.136 --> 00:29:16.881
I mean, that's another subject completely.

00:29:17.521 --> 00:29:18.623
They address that later on.

00:29:18.722 --> 00:29:20.645
As far as video review,

00:29:20.846 --> 00:29:22.909
one idea would be to opt in to

00:29:23.009 --> 00:29:25.752
compete versus, I don't know, participate.

00:29:26.299 --> 00:29:26.519
Yeah,

00:29:26.740 --> 00:29:28.441
when signing in for the CrossFit Open,

00:29:28.780 --> 00:29:30.182
this would still be the same leaderboard,

00:29:30.261 --> 00:29:32.563
but only those who are competing would be

00:29:32.643 --> 00:29:34.864
eligible for quarterfinals and beyond and

00:29:34.903 --> 00:29:37.025
would also require a video link during the

00:29:37.065 --> 00:29:39.025
score submission window for both Open and

00:29:39.066 --> 00:29:39.705
quarterfinals.

00:29:40.306 --> 00:29:42.126
Only videos with high public scrutiny

00:29:42.146 --> 00:29:42.987
would be reviewed,

00:29:43.467 --> 00:29:45.468
or HQ could request a video from one

00:29:45.508 --> 00:29:47.828
workout at the end of quarterfinals for

00:29:47.868 --> 00:29:50.250
semifinal qualifiers as a spot check of

00:29:50.329 --> 00:29:50.770
sorts,

00:29:51.451 --> 00:29:53.912
like past CrossFit Open requirements.

00:29:55.588 --> 00:29:56.368
Regardless,

00:29:56.528 --> 00:30:00.109
having that as an option over no one

00:30:00.151 --> 00:30:02.070
gets their video reviews and it's always

00:30:02.111 --> 00:30:03.090
been an honor system.

00:30:03.571 --> 00:30:05.271
That's already a step up if we were

00:30:05.291 --> 00:30:07.272
to at least have, you know,

00:30:07.313 --> 00:30:08.932
the compete versus participate and then

00:30:08.952 --> 00:30:10.193
the compete have their videos,

00:30:10.473 --> 00:30:11.173
let's say public.

00:30:12.034 --> 00:30:12.654
Right.

00:30:12.714 --> 00:30:14.075
Like that's already a step that we,

00:30:14.734 --> 00:30:15.655
we already don't have.

00:30:15.695 --> 00:30:17.056
So I'm good at that.

00:30:17.881 --> 00:30:19.803
And I think just by having to put

00:30:19.823 --> 00:30:22.224
your video public, it still makes people,

00:30:22.265 --> 00:30:23.945
or at least it should make people think

00:30:23.986 --> 00:30:25.528
about their movement standards.

00:30:33.755 --> 00:30:33.994
Yeah.

00:30:35.797 --> 00:30:36.538
It sucks.

00:30:37.218 --> 00:30:37.898
I know it sucks.

00:30:37.919 --> 00:30:38.098
I mean,

00:30:38.338 --> 00:30:39.200
I have to do it every year.

00:30:40.511 --> 00:30:42.772
I get that it may deter some people,

00:30:43.492 --> 00:30:46.515
but if you truly are competitive and

00:30:46.535 --> 00:30:47.454
you're going to click compete,

00:30:47.535 --> 00:30:49.655
it means you want to move on and

00:30:49.717 --> 00:30:51.758
you have to submit a video for

00:30:51.778 --> 00:30:52.298
quarterfinals.

00:30:52.317 --> 00:30:54.199
So like, what's the,

00:30:54.239 --> 00:30:56.240
what's the issue with videoing three more

00:30:56.259 --> 00:31:00.981
workouts?

00:31:01.001 --> 00:31:02.163
Most people do anyway,

00:31:02.242 --> 00:31:03.242
if you're a competitor.

00:31:03.702 --> 00:31:05.824
Exactly.

00:31:05.903 --> 00:31:07.065
Right.

00:31:07.085 --> 00:31:08.945
You see people's video on Instagram and,

00:31:10.375 --> 00:31:14.788
Just, you know, I don't know.

00:31:16.721 --> 00:31:18.281
And then I've had people say to me,

00:31:18.301 --> 00:31:20.143
well, why not just do a five-week open?

00:31:20.883 --> 00:31:21.064
One,

00:31:21.243 --> 00:31:23.204
doing multiple workouts in one weekend is

00:31:23.224 --> 00:31:25.826
a harder test than doing one workout a

00:31:25.865 --> 00:31:26.186
week.

00:31:26.686 --> 00:31:28.448
So it's a different style of test.

00:31:28.847 --> 00:31:30.489
The other thing is when you get to

00:31:30.509 --> 00:31:31.890
the higher level skills,

00:31:32.269 --> 00:31:34.531
the equipment becomes more scarce in

00:31:34.571 --> 00:31:35.211
affiliates.

00:31:35.652 --> 00:31:37.192
GHDs aren't as plentiful.

00:31:37.512 --> 00:31:38.753
Ropes aren't as plentiful.

00:31:39.294 --> 00:31:40.454
Rings aren't as plentiful.

00:31:41.035 --> 00:31:41.174
So...

00:31:42.296 --> 00:31:44.678
You need to help out the affiliates by

00:31:45.077 --> 00:31:48.039
funneling down the number of people doing

00:31:48.079 --> 00:31:54.864
those higher skills.

00:31:54.903 --> 00:31:56.964
Because the equipment just is more scarce

00:31:57.486 --> 00:32:03.288
at that point.

00:32:03.328 --> 00:32:05.290
Not everybody's like CrossFit Polaris that

00:32:05.310 --> 00:32:07.152
had a rope in every lane and an

00:32:07.211 --> 00:32:09.032
echo bike and a rower in every lane

00:32:09.472 --> 00:32:10.614
and all of that stuff, right?

00:32:12.587 --> 00:32:19.791
That's very rare.

00:32:19.892 --> 00:32:20.672
I like the idea.

00:32:20.771 --> 00:32:25.914
I hope they do have to video.

00:32:25.934 --> 00:32:27.736
Does your open rank relative the open

00:32:27.796 --> 00:32:29.557
field or quarterfinal field count towards

00:32:29.576 --> 00:32:31.117
your quarterfinal rank?

00:32:32.118 --> 00:32:33.479
In this case, Max,

00:32:33.640 --> 00:32:37.741
it is the combination of all workouts from

00:32:37.882 --> 00:32:39.762
both is your overall rank.

00:32:43.622 --> 00:32:44.242
Right.

00:32:44.383 --> 00:32:44.522
Yeah.

00:32:44.542 --> 00:32:47.705
Like all seven scores count together as

00:32:47.746 --> 00:32:48.247
your test.

00:32:48.366 --> 00:32:49.367
It's not like you're open.

00:32:49.387 --> 00:32:50.788
Let's say you finished the fifteenth and

00:32:50.808 --> 00:32:52.049
all of a sudden you carry that over,

00:32:52.069 --> 00:32:53.010
which they've done before.

00:32:53.351 --> 00:32:53.771
Yeah.

00:32:54.372 --> 00:32:55.753
That's how they used to do the Masters.

00:32:56.034 --> 00:32:58.036
That's dumb.

00:32:58.076 --> 00:32:58.256
Yeah.

00:33:00.188 --> 00:33:00.567
Yeah,

00:33:00.607 --> 00:33:01.990
it would count like as their first score

00:33:02.029 --> 00:33:04.612
of the next stage.

00:33:04.711 --> 00:33:05.472
But no,

00:33:05.512 --> 00:33:07.454
this each of them would count equally

00:33:08.154 --> 00:33:08.756
altogether.

00:33:09.175 --> 00:33:11.538
I'm not sure if when you go to

00:33:11.557 --> 00:33:14.401
the quarterfinals, if it's only the seven,

00:33:14.500 --> 00:33:15.000
like if you're,

00:33:15.682 --> 00:33:17.143
if they have like another type of

00:33:17.222 --> 00:33:17.923
leaderboard,

00:33:18.644 --> 00:33:21.047
where it's only the people that have taken

00:33:21.146 --> 00:33:22.807
all those tests that are kind of ranked,

00:33:23.409 --> 00:33:25.089
or if during the open when you were

00:33:25.151 --> 00:33:25.431
ranked,

00:33:26.112 --> 00:33:28.231
whatever if it's just added on i don't

00:33:28.251 --> 00:33:29.553
know if that makes sense or not but

00:33:30.212 --> 00:33:33.453
yeah no i agree because yeah if if

00:33:33.513 --> 00:33:36.314
you finished two hundredth in a workout

00:33:36.453 --> 00:33:38.634
and thirty of those people didn't sign up

00:33:38.694 --> 00:33:40.934
you you really would be one seventy on

00:33:41.015 --> 00:33:47.096
the in the quarterfinal leaderboard it i i

00:33:47.136 --> 00:33:50.257
have a feeling crossfit is not going to

00:33:50.277 --> 00:33:52.097
do that work no i i think that's

00:33:52.117 --> 00:33:53.258
too much work i think you'll just

00:33:54.695 --> 00:33:55.655
Yeah, everything combined.

00:33:55.776 --> 00:33:57.136
And these are just recommendations.

00:33:57.176 --> 00:33:58.936
We don't know that CrossFit's doing any of

00:33:58.957 --> 00:33:59.237
this.

00:33:59.477 --> 00:34:00.116
Well, that's true.

00:34:00.477 --> 00:34:01.396
Yeah, they haven't approved it.

00:34:02.238 --> 00:34:04.157
Yeah, my point is,

00:34:04.357 --> 00:34:05.917
I have a feeling CrossFit will say, no,

00:34:05.938 --> 00:34:06.578
we can't do that.

00:34:07.318 --> 00:34:08.139
And this won't happen.

00:34:08.179 --> 00:34:10.980
Because they're just going to be like,

00:34:11.059 --> 00:34:12.739
yeah, we're... I mean,

00:34:13.659 --> 00:34:15.800
there's probably someone here freaking in

00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:17.141
our chat who could do this in a

00:34:17.161 --> 00:34:17.380
day.

00:34:18.960 --> 00:34:20.782
Well, Patrick doesn't...

00:34:23.327 --> 00:34:24.568
Patrick makes a good point.

00:34:25.469 --> 00:34:28.269
The one big bugaboo with this, I think,

00:34:28.329 --> 00:34:30.650
is reducing the field from two thousand to

00:34:30.690 --> 00:34:33.210
five hundred who make it to semifinals,

00:34:33.751 --> 00:34:35.231
because that is a lot of money that

00:34:35.271 --> 00:34:37.293
CrossFit is giving up.

00:34:38.313 --> 00:34:39.733
Because a lot of people signed up to

00:34:39.773 --> 00:34:42.635
do the online semifinal that had to pay

00:34:42.695 --> 00:34:43.315
that fee.

00:34:44.195 --> 00:34:46.476
And now you're reducing that overall fee.

00:34:47.320 --> 00:34:50.224
pieced down by fifteen hundred people not

00:34:50.264 --> 00:34:52.686
that every one of them signed up but

00:34:52.726 --> 00:34:55.288
it's just reducing the pool a great deal

00:34:56.108 --> 00:34:58.170
from people who act who did sign up

00:34:58.190 --> 00:34:59.012
to see what they could do

00:35:00.757 --> 00:35:02.318
That is going to be.

00:35:02.338 --> 00:35:05.061
It says to compete live at a semifinals.

00:35:05.701 --> 00:35:07.802
You can still probably have a bigger pool

00:35:07.842 --> 00:35:10.625
of people that can be for an online

00:35:10.804 --> 00:35:11.445
semifinal.

00:35:12.045 --> 00:35:13.527
Like I think that if you're in the

00:35:13.567 --> 00:35:14.427
top five hundred,

00:35:14.487 --> 00:35:16.829
you can get asked for a semifinal,

00:35:16.849 --> 00:35:17.210
let's say.

00:35:17.309 --> 00:35:18.210
But past that,

00:35:18.250 --> 00:35:20.172
maybe it's the online because I just see

00:35:20.271 --> 00:35:21.012
live here.

00:35:21.992 --> 00:35:23.114
So that's one thing.

00:35:23.949 --> 00:35:25.771
I think the bigger issue with that is

00:35:26.331 --> 00:35:26.731
the,

00:35:27.052 --> 00:35:29.454
because you can look at this past year's

00:35:29.713 --> 00:35:31.514
semifinal registrations and the year

00:35:31.534 --> 00:35:31.976
before,

00:35:32.556 --> 00:35:34.938
and it's a pretty stark difference because

00:35:35.137 --> 00:35:38.179
of the number of spots given to that

00:35:38.320 --> 00:35:39.179
online semifinal.

00:35:39.601 --> 00:35:41.922
And later they talk about they want to

00:35:42.001 --> 00:35:42.722
have it be one or two,

00:35:42.762 --> 00:35:44.423
and I think that's going to be their

00:35:44.443 --> 00:35:45.764
fatal flaw if they want to make money

00:35:45.905 --> 00:35:46.224
online.

00:35:47.574 --> 00:35:49.175
You have to have more than one or

00:35:49.195 --> 00:35:51.317
two spots if you want people to pay

00:35:51.376 --> 00:35:52.157
to compete online.

00:35:53.079 --> 00:35:53.199
Yeah,

00:35:53.219 --> 00:35:54.500
because people will just look at the

00:35:54.519 --> 00:35:55.880
workouts and then be like, no,

00:35:55.900 --> 00:35:56.661
not for one spot.

00:35:56.882 --> 00:35:58.824
Yeah.

00:35:58.903 --> 00:36:00.525
And that's the crux of everything.

00:36:02.106 --> 00:36:04.568
We are giving up making it a better

00:36:04.789 --> 00:36:08.731
and more seamless transition to make the

00:36:08.751 --> 00:36:10.112
quick buck.

00:36:10.132 --> 00:36:10.233
Yeah.

00:36:10.693 --> 00:36:12.155
Instead of trying to make a more

00:36:12.614 --> 00:36:15.717
longer-lasting season that makes sense.

00:36:18.416 --> 00:36:21.422
um and looking at the future dollars as

00:36:21.481 --> 00:36:25.487
opposed to the current dollars but if

00:36:26.780 --> 00:36:28.922
semifinals run a two day competition.

00:36:29.902 --> 00:36:30.822
Now all of a sudden,

00:36:30.882 --> 00:36:32.362
if you want to do two days prior

00:36:32.443 --> 00:36:33.724
teams or masters,

00:36:34.804 --> 00:36:36.565
that can also add into the pool of

00:36:36.804 --> 00:36:39.706
semifinal athletes in person and adding to

00:36:39.726 --> 00:36:43.628
the revenue of these semifinal host

00:36:44.228 --> 00:36:44.927
competitions.

00:36:45.547 --> 00:36:46.929
I think it would add more people there

00:36:46.969 --> 00:36:48.028
so that people can still sit there

00:36:48.048 --> 00:36:48.969
semifinal athletes.

00:36:49.849 --> 00:36:51.250
Because right now like the teams don't

00:36:51.271 --> 00:36:52.070
have many options.

00:36:52.351 --> 00:36:52.411
So

00:36:56.490 --> 00:36:57.170
Seth Jumpship,

00:36:57.210 --> 00:36:58.751
who is a big part of writing these

00:36:58.791 --> 00:37:00.592
recommendations, is in the chat.

00:37:00.612 --> 00:37:02.353
The theory is that you would get more

00:37:02.414 --> 00:37:04.375
from increased quarterfinal participation

00:37:04.394 --> 00:37:06.615
fees than you would lose from an online

00:37:06.655 --> 00:37:08.336
semifinal.

00:37:08.396 --> 00:37:08.597
Right.

00:37:09.376 --> 00:37:09.757
I mean,

00:37:09.878 --> 00:37:13.018
it makes sense to me whether or not

00:37:13.059 --> 00:37:14.599
they can convince HQ.

00:37:15.139 --> 00:37:18.762
We have loved this idea for two years.

00:37:18.802 --> 00:37:20.742
Carolyn brought this up two years ago to

00:37:20.842 --> 00:37:21.083
us,

00:37:21.844 --> 00:37:23.764
and we have been banging this drum a

00:37:23.804 --> 00:37:24.405
long time.

00:37:25.972 --> 00:37:29.373
It's getting CrossFit to see that, okay,

00:37:29.494 --> 00:37:31.454
you may lose a couple dollars today,

00:37:31.753 --> 00:37:32.853
but you're going to make way more in

00:37:32.873 --> 00:37:35.394
the future is a really hard sell.

00:37:35.775 --> 00:37:37.414
With the past administration,

00:37:37.755 --> 00:37:39.016
we don't know what's going to happen with

00:37:39.036 --> 00:37:45.117
the new guy.

00:37:45.137 --> 00:37:46.257
Barry makes a great point.

00:37:46.277 --> 00:37:47.217
Twenty years, eventually,

00:37:47.237 --> 00:37:47.918
they'll get it right.

00:37:48.737 --> 00:37:49.717
Will they?

00:37:49.737 --> 00:37:51.398
They could make it worse in another

00:37:51.438 --> 00:37:51.637
twenty.

00:37:51.958 --> 00:37:53.199
Yeah, Patrick's got it right here.

00:37:53.219 --> 00:37:53.798
Yeah, read that one.

00:37:54.757 --> 00:37:55.918
The last time they did last chance

00:37:55.958 --> 00:37:57.159
qualifier in twenty twenty five,

00:37:57.179 --> 00:37:58.679
they had one spot available for men and

00:37:58.719 --> 00:37:58.938
women.

00:37:59.440 --> 00:38:01.199
Only seven men and fifteen women did all

00:38:01.219 --> 00:38:03.101
the five workouts and less than one

00:38:03.141 --> 00:38:04.141
hundred signed up total.

00:38:04.161 --> 00:38:05.481
Yeah.

00:38:05.521 --> 00:38:08.123
So you're like the people's argument.

00:38:08.143 --> 00:38:09.762
I was one of the fifteen.

00:38:09.862 --> 00:38:10.143
Right.

00:38:10.242 --> 00:38:11.523
I mean, it wasn't very many people.

00:38:11.664 --> 00:38:14.025
And you say like five hundred is not

00:38:14.065 --> 00:38:15.764
enough to advance semis.

00:38:16.065 --> 00:38:16.605
Honestly,

00:38:16.644 --> 00:38:18.286
like if those five hundred feel like they

00:38:18.306 --> 00:38:20.766
have a shot and there's five spots online,

00:38:20.847 --> 00:38:22.688
you're going to get way more signups than

00:38:23.467 --> 00:38:23.887
one spot.

00:38:24.954 --> 00:38:26.856
i also feel like for the quarterfinals

00:38:26.876 --> 00:38:29.358
there's a lot of members that would enjoy

00:38:29.577 --> 00:38:30.659
i know it's more expensive to do the

00:38:30.699 --> 00:38:32.880
quarterfinals but that they'll get a

00:38:32.920 --> 00:38:34.641
better idea of their fitness when they

00:38:34.661 --> 00:38:36.922
have all those scores counted and then

00:38:37.422 --> 00:38:39.164
they get to see okay i was really

00:38:39.204 --> 00:38:40.724
bad at the high skill but i'm really

00:38:40.744 --> 00:38:43.786
good here and like i'm this place with

00:38:44.007 --> 00:38:46.467
seven events versus just three and then

00:38:46.507 --> 00:38:49.409
starting over and then getting you know

00:38:49.449 --> 00:38:51.990
kicked out or just not kicked out but

00:38:52.010 --> 00:38:52.211
like

00:38:53.192 --> 00:38:54.572
really beat up in the quarterfinals

00:38:54.592 --> 00:38:55.572
because you were not ready.

00:38:55.733 --> 00:38:57.672
I just think it gives members also a

00:38:57.713 --> 00:39:01.313
better picture so that their levels are

00:39:01.494 --> 00:39:03.233
more appropriate for the Community Cup.

00:39:04.195 --> 00:39:05.994
Yeah.

00:39:06.054 --> 00:39:10.436
Which was not really talked about that

00:39:10.476 --> 00:39:10.755
much.

00:39:11.115 --> 00:39:14.056
It kind of just came by fast.

00:39:14.217 --> 00:39:15.836
I don't think I heard one thing about

00:39:15.856 --> 00:39:17.338
the Community Cup at the games.

00:39:19.018 --> 00:39:20.978
And that could have been a great

00:39:20.998 --> 00:39:22.018
opportunity to talk about it.

00:39:23.688 --> 00:39:27.070
It was on a reel of videos that

00:39:27.090 --> 00:39:28.110
showed up on the screen,

00:39:28.771 --> 00:39:30.813
but I didn't hear anybody say anything

00:39:30.853 --> 00:39:37.556
about it.

00:39:37.577 --> 00:39:38.038
Number two,

00:39:38.197 --> 00:39:40.639
forty men and women should qualify to the

00:39:40.659 --> 00:39:43.601
CrossFit Games.

00:39:43.840 --> 00:39:44.061
Yeah,

00:39:44.081 --> 00:39:45.001
I don't know if I agree with this

00:39:45.121 --> 00:39:45.181
one.

00:39:47.443 --> 00:39:49.403
i'm not completely opposed to it but like

00:39:49.423 --> 00:39:52.445
i said we've the thirty seems to be

00:39:52.987 --> 00:39:55.228
a sweet spot i think i think i

00:39:55.248 --> 00:39:56.469
said this last week unless you can figure

00:39:56.489 --> 00:39:58.751
out a twelve lane system and have thirty

00:39:58.791 --> 00:40:01.172
six that's probably three heats is

00:40:01.271 --> 00:40:04.554
probably i think the sweet spot yeah like

00:40:04.614 --> 00:40:06.496
thirty six with twelve so that'd be great

00:40:06.536 --> 00:40:08.317
yeah i would love that i'm just of

00:40:08.356 --> 00:40:10.778
the opinion and we're all i think

00:40:11.809 --> 00:40:13.809
for all of us that whoever goes to

00:40:13.849 --> 00:40:14.329
the games,

00:40:14.869 --> 00:40:16.630
you take the full test and each test

00:40:16.650 --> 00:40:16.989
matters.

00:40:17.289 --> 00:40:17.769
Correct.

00:40:18.070 --> 00:40:20.411
That's my bigger issue with saying let's

00:40:20.471 --> 00:40:21.090
get forty there.

00:40:21.331 --> 00:40:22.490
I don't want someone to go there and

00:40:22.510 --> 00:40:27.532
not and not complete the weekend.

00:40:27.632 --> 00:40:28.972
I'm also the opinion that like all the

00:40:28.992 --> 00:40:31.012
tests should be like equally ranked,

00:40:31.052 --> 00:40:34.373
like a five hundred meter sprint should be

00:40:34.612 --> 00:40:38.873
as important as a six mile trail run.

00:40:39.934 --> 00:40:41.617
a bag throw if you view it as

00:40:41.717 --> 00:40:42.878
important to put in the test.

00:40:43.878 --> 00:40:48.523
Hundred points like.

00:40:48.623 --> 00:40:50.605
Maximally the big pro of this year was

00:40:50.626 --> 00:40:52.748
the high tempo of events for heat starts

00:40:52.788 --> 00:40:53.668
to drone on.

00:40:54.989 --> 00:40:55.750
Here's what I'll say.

00:40:56.250 --> 00:40:58.090
I have always been a proponent of the

00:40:58.170 --> 00:41:01.554
forty people at the games until I saw

00:41:01.673 --> 00:41:02.755
it play out this year.

00:41:02.894 --> 00:41:04.896
And they did do an excellent job of

00:41:05.036 --> 00:41:07.478
moving things quickly through,

00:41:08.097 --> 00:41:09.599
which I think is a necessity.

00:41:10.019 --> 00:41:11.621
The other problem is we've never seen

00:41:11.721 --> 00:41:13.902
forty with the forty best athletes.

00:41:13.922 --> 00:41:14.503
Correct.

00:41:15.824 --> 00:41:18.326
So you're comparing apples to oranges.

00:41:19.641 --> 00:41:22.623
This year we had probably the closest we

00:41:22.643 --> 00:41:25.126
have ever had to the thirty best athletes

00:41:25.525 --> 00:41:27.867
at the games.

00:41:27.927 --> 00:41:28.829
It's still not perfect,

00:41:28.869 --> 00:41:30.309
but it was close to.

00:41:31.811 --> 00:41:36.253
And I always loved the forty athletes,

00:41:36.293 --> 00:41:38.036
but we didn't have the right forty there.

00:41:38.056 --> 00:41:41.778
I agree with that.

00:41:41.818 --> 00:41:43.519
So it's hard to like compare.

00:41:43.898 --> 00:41:44.059
Well,

00:41:44.119 --> 00:41:45.880
I think that's what makes the cuts idea

00:41:46.360 --> 00:41:46.661
even...

00:41:46.701 --> 00:41:48.043
Because I feel like if we go this

00:41:48.103 --> 00:41:50.164
route and we get the right forty athletes,

00:41:51.125 --> 00:41:52.666
I really don't want someone cut.

00:41:53.567 --> 00:41:54.068
In the past,

00:41:54.128 --> 00:41:55.949
I could maybe have justified that there

00:41:55.969 --> 00:41:57.510
were eight to ten people who probably

00:41:57.550 --> 00:41:59.052
didn't even really deserve to be there.

00:41:59.132 --> 00:41:59.853
And so if they get cut,

00:41:59.873 --> 00:42:00.353
they get cut.

00:42:00.413 --> 00:42:00.974
It is what it is.

00:42:01.293 --> 00:42:02.855
But I think if you have the right

00:42:03.036 --> 00:42:06.137
forty people, you don't want any cuts.

00:42:06.197 --> 00:42:06.699
So like...

00:42:07.936 --> 00:42:08.396
I mean,

00:42:08.418 --> 00:42:10.259
I just think you figure out how many

00:42:10.278 --> 00:42:11.079
people you can run.

00:42:11.539 --> 00:42:13.039
The cuts are the semifinals.

00:42:13.079 --> 00:42:14.141
The cuts are the quarterfinals.

00:42:14.221 --> 00:42:14.721
The open.

00:42:15.521 --> 00:42:16.601
Those are the cuts.

00:42:17.001 --> 00:42:18.043
And then you get to the games.

00:42:18.302 --> 00:42:19.123
This is the test.

00:42:19.204 --> 00:42:20.844
So if you look at the decathlon,

00:42:21.324 --> 00:42:22.184
you're not getting cut.

00:42:22.224 --> 00:42:23.206
These are the events.

00:42:24.422 --> 00:42:26.204
who at the end of this specific test

00:42:26.643 --> 00:42:27.264
is the fittest.

00:42:27.503 --> 00:42:28.143
Same thing for us.

00:42:28.164 --> 00:42:30.105
Like it just makes no sense to me

00:42:30.144 --> 00:42:32.306
that like you would cut someone after

00:42:32.405 --> 00:42:33.706
seven or eight events when there's

00:42:33.726 --> 00:42:35.947
thirteen to fifteen events and all of

00:42:35.967 --> 00:42:37.708
their strengths could have been there and

00:42:37.728 --> 00:42:39.329
they could have really affected the

00:42:39.369 --> 00:42:40.389
leaderboard and all that.

00:42:40.409 --> 00:42:41.530
Like I just don't think it gives

00:42:42.552 --> 00:42:45.172
a good representation of what everyone's

00:42:45.213 --> 00:42:47.293
fitness is when you you cut people short,

00:42:47.313 --> 00:42:48.713
then the order of the events matter.

00:42:49.172 --> 00:42:52.193
The scoring system changes after the cut

00:42:52.233 --> 00:42:54.193
some events if they change the scoring

00:42:54.213 --> 00:42:54.474
system.

00:42:54.494 --> 00:42:56.335
So now the events are worth more.

00:42:56.914 --> 00:42:58.295
So why are those events worth more than

00:42:58.335 --> 00:42:58.855
these ones?

00:42:59.755 --> 00:43:00.775
Just I don't know.

00:43:01.175 --> 00:43:03.775
I just think for our methodology and the

00:43:03.835 --> 00:43:06.695
definition of fitness, who's ever there,

00:43:06.755 --> 00:43:08.496
whether it's twenty, thirty, forty,

00:43:08.817 --> 00:43:09.356
take the test.

00:43:10.170 --> 00:43:13.157
And then let's see who's ranked where.

00:43:13.998 --> 00:43:15.041
And we've never gotten a...

00:43:17.684 --> 00:43:20.606
an event after the cuts that was promised

00:43:21.065 --> 00:43:22.246
that now that we're cuts,

00:43:22.266 --> 00:43:24.027
we can do this where we couldn't in

00:43:24.047 --> 00:43:26.708
the before that's never happened.

00:43:27.047 --> 00:43:28.608
It's been a promise that's never been

00:43:28.648 --> 00:43:29.168
fulfilled.

00:43:30.028 --> 00:43:31.668
And I agree with everything that Carolyn

00:43:31.708 --> 00:43:32.188
just said,

00:43:32.510 --> 00:43:35.349
like that the points change after the

00:43:35.409 --> 00:43:35.751
cuts,

00:43:36.090 --> 00:43:39.931
the order of events really is crucial when

00:43:39.952 --> 00:43:40.791
you're having cuts.

00:43:41.532 --> 00:43:43.273
And depending on what kind of an athlete

00:43:43.313 --> 00:43:43.693
you are,

00:43:44.757 --> 00:43:46.318
one year you might get cut the other

00:43:46.498 --> 00:43:47.759
year you might not get cut.

00:43:47.818 --> 00:43:49.139
Like it's just, yeah.

00:43:49.179 --> 00:43:50.239
Like a lot of times it's like the

00:43:50.280 --> 00:43:52.121
single modality things at the start.

00:43:52.201 --> 00:43:53.702
And then here comes all the CrossFit,

00:43:53.742 --> 00:43:56.123
which you could be excelling at so much

00:43:56.143 --> 00:43:56.824
when it's mixed.

00:43:58.824 --> 00:43:58.965
Yeah.

00:43:58.985 --> 00:44:00.065
Like, and people will say, Oh,

00:44:00.085 --> 00:44:01.025
the cuts are exciting.

00:44:01.085 --> 00:44:02.447
It's exciting to see who gets cut.

00:44:02.467 --> 00:44:04.947
Who's going to not, but like, it's just,

00:44:05.108 --> 00:44:08.130
it's not comparable to playoffs or other

00:44:08.210 --> 00:44:08.550
sports.

00:44:08.570 --> 00:44:09.971
Like this is a test of fitness.

00:44:10.090 --> 00:44:12.652
And these are the events that the director

00:44:12.692 --> 00:44:13.773
chose to put forward and,

00:44:14.666 --> 00:44:16.967
And I feel like all should take part.

00:44:16.987 --> 00:44:19.429
The drama that happens from the cuts is

00:44:19.469 --> 00:44:20.550
a bullshit argument.

00:44:21.110 --> 00:44:23.012
Because if that's your argument,

00:44:23.132 --> 00:44:25.512
you would not have five attempts to

00:44:25.552 --> 00:44:27.875
qualify for the games.

00:44:27.954 --> 00:44:30.036
If you want the drama in the season,

00:44:31.077 --> 00:44:32.557
it's going to be another recommendation

00:44:32.577 --> 00:44:36.840
that's coming up on this list.

00:44:36.920 --> 00:44:38.641
If you truly cared about the drama,

00:44:39.161 --> 00:44:40.681
there are points in the season you can

00:44:40.722 --> 00:44:41.563
have a lot of drama.

00:44:46.844 --> 00:44:48.764
Um, Seth was, I need to find it.

00:44:48.784 --> 00:44:52.288
Um, the cuts are a concession to HQ,

00:44:52.347 --> 00:44:54.548
not a recommendation of the CAC, uh,

00:44:54.608 --> 00:44:57.271
forty athlete spot strengthens live semis.

00:44:57.690 --> 00:44:59.411
More will fight to participate because of

00:44:59.452 --> 00:45:04.695
the increased opportunities.

00:45:04.735 --> 00:45:06.077
I really struggle with this one.

00:45:06.097 --> 00:45:09.079
Cause I know one of their recommendations

00:45:09.199 --> 00:45:12.380
is to increase semifinals fields.

00:45:12.481 --> 00:45:13.702
And I think that is.

00:45:16.487 --> 00:45:21.030
I just – I don't see the benefit

00:45:21.050 --> 00:45:21.690
in that.

00:45:22.110 --> 00:45:23.130
In all honesty,

00:45:23.170 --> 00:45:25.751
the best way for HQ to make money

00:45:27.052 --> 00:45:28.414
is to do all online.

00:45:30.375 --> 00:45:33.496
And pushing those spots out to in-person

00:45:33.536 --> 00:45:37.237
semis that – and I know they're going

00:45:37.277 --> 00:45:40.619
to, you know,

00:45:40.639 --> 00:45:42.059
push that off to somebody else and not

00:45:42.099 --> 00:45:43.621
have any cost incurred with it.

00:45:43.760 --> 00:45:44.221
I just –

00:45:46.920 --> 00:45:48.443
They're also not going to get the revenue

00:45:48.483 --> 00:45:48.824
from it,

00:45:48.864 --> 00:45:51.047
so I don't see why that's a benefit.

00:45:51.166 --> 00:45:53.009
I know we want we as a sport

00:45:53.028 --> 00:45:55.492
would like in-person events,

00:45:56.753 --> 00:46:01.159
but I don't see how this improves things

00:46:01.179 --> 00:46:03.603
for HQ, money-wise, personally.

00:46:03.965 --> 00:46:05.306
No, because one,

00:46:05.686 --> 00:46:07.465
I think one of the recommendation was for

00:46:07.525 --> 00:46:09.146
half of the quarterfinal money to go

00:46:09.206 --> 00:46:13.469
towards these events to help them for

00:46:13.509 --> 00:46:15.469
registration, or maybe not registration,

00:46:15.510 --> 00:46:17.351
but to offset some of their costs.

00:46:18.030 --> 00:46:19.952
I just don't see how CrossFit's going to

00:46:19.992 --> 00:46:22.472
say, oh, yes, let's do that.

00:46:22.492 --> 00:46:24.532
Because like you said, and I fully agree,

00:46:24.753 --> 00:46:30.655
the online version of CrossFit makes HQ so

00:46:30.675 --> 00:46:33.036
much money.

00:46:33.097 --> 00:46:33.197
Yeah.

00:46:35.885 --> 00:46:38.367
The quarterfinal edition was brilliant for

00:46:39.588 --> 00:46:40.407
HQ.

00:46:40.568 --> 00:46:41.809
It was the smartest move that they

00:46:41.849 --> 00:46:43.630
probably could have made to add another

00:46:43.730 --> 00:46:47.170
fifty bucks for that and then you added

00:46:47.210 --> 00:46:48.331
the online semifinal.

00:46:48.351 --> 00:46:51.652
That's just easy for them to take all

00:46:51.672 --> 00:46:52.012
that money.

00:46:54.574 --> 00:46:56.135
Semifinal athletes should have one

00:46:56.275 --> 00:46:58.135
opportunity to qualify for the CrossFit

00:46:58.155 --> 00:46:59.175
Games at a live event.

00:47:00.016 --> 00:47:00.416
Agree?

00:47:01.077 --> 00:47:03.938
Two billion thousand zillion percent.

00:47:04.802 --> 00:47:05.672
I do agree with this.

00:47:08.922 --> 00:47:10.623
For the director of the semifinals,

00:47:10.804 --> 00:47:11.945
Sanity, yes.

00:47:12.204 --> 00:47:13.867
And also, like, yeah,

00:47:13.887 --> 00:47:15.268
if you pick one that was stacked,

00:47:15.327 --> 00:47:16.849
it does suck, but then you would have,

00:47:16.889 --> 00:47:17.208
let's say,

00:47:17.228 --> 00:47:19.351
the last chance online to do that,

00:47:19.371 --> 00:47:20.711
or if you were sick or whatnot,

00:47:21.152 --> 00:47:23.494
because then it becomes who has the most

00:47:23.534 --> 00:47:24.155
sponsors,

00:47:24.534 --> 00:47:27.297
who has no job and can go and

00:47:27.336 --> 00:47:29.659
travel everywhere around the world or has

00:47:29.699 --> 00:47:31.519
the funding or support to be able to

00:47:31.559 --> 00:47:34.181
do this versus you get one shot,

00:47:34.222 --> 00:47:37.505
pick your region, and then if you don't,

00:47:38.438 --> 00:47:39.300
online.

00:47:39.420 --> 00:47:40.460
Then the online would be really,

00:47:40.481 --> 00:47:43.182
really interesting.

00:47:43.262 --> 00:47:44.704
We have lost all the drama in the

00:47:44.744 --> 00:47:45.143
season.

00:47:46.505 --> 00:47:48.706
And I think that's because CrossFit has

00:47:48.766 --> 00:47:53.070
given up any role in the season until

00:47:53.110 --> 00:47:53.710
the games.

00:47:54.471 --> 00:47:55.032
And so they,

00:47:55.172 --> 00:47:56.833
all they focus on is the drama of

00:47:56.853 --> 00:47:58.853
the games and they don't give a shit

00:47:58.893 --> 00:48:00.516
about the drama, the rest of the season,

00:48:01.135 --> 00:48:03.557
which is a horrible way to look at

00:48:03.597 --> 00:48:05.659
it and is never going to grow the

00:48:05.679 --> 00:48:05.960
sport.

00:48:06.619 --> 00:48:09.400
think that's why i'm like hesitant to say

00:48:09.460 --> 00:48:11.739
let's get let's bring on more semi-finals

00:48:12.260 --> 00:48:13.699
i don't want more third-party

00:48:13.760 --> 00:48:15.380
organizations doing their own you're

00:48:15.420 --> 00:48:24.181
jumping ahead okay um so we agree on

00:48:24.202 --> 00:48:27.023
that one crossfit hq should seek out new

00:48:27.103 --> 00:48:29.362
semi-final event organizers even at the

00:48:29.382 --> 00:48:32.603
affiliate level now go jamie

00:48:33.199 --> 00:48:37.003
I, it just, I don't, I don't like,

00:48:37.623 --> 00:48:39.304
it's literally the exact same thing as

00:48:39.344 --> 00:48:40.545
what's going on for the masters.

00:48:41.786 --> 00:48:44.728
Like giving that responsibility to

00:48:44.748 --> 00:48:49.331
somebody else just cheapens the whole feel

00:48:49.411 --> 00:48:50.172
of the whole thing.

00:48:50.452 --> 00:48:53.175
Like I know some of these event organizers

00:48:53.195 --> 00:48:54.456
can do an incredible job.

00:48:55.188 --> 00:48:57.409
But if you're going to then have twelve

00:48:57.630 --> 00:49:01.713
random semifinals that run however they

00:49:01.733 --> 00:49:04.496
want to run with maybe one guideline,

00:49:05.215 --> 00:49:05.976
I think it's crazy.

00:49:06.538 --> 00:49:08.278
I'd rather see four big semifinals that

00:49:08.318 --> 00:49:12.322
have seven spots, eight spots each.

00:49:12.983 --> 00:49:14.063
I thought Syndicate that year,

00:49:14.083 --> 00:49:14.784
when there was whatever,

00:49:14.844 --> 00:49:15.724
nine spots available,

00:49:15.764 --> 00:49:18.527
was incredibly exciting.

00:49:18.568 --> 00:49:20.789
I know it's not the three podium spots

00:49:20.829 --> 00:49:21.650
that you're looking at,

00:49:21.670 --> 00:49:22.371
you're looking down here,

00:49:22.411 --> 00:49:23.652
but that's exciting to me.

00:49:24.670 --> 00:49:26.090
Like there was a bunch of good athletes

00:49:26.110 --> 00:49:26.271
there.

00:49:26.530 --> 00:49:28.271
People will travel to see that.

00:49:28.291 --> 00:49:29.733
People aren't going to travel to twelve

00:49:29.773 --> 00:49:32.474
different semifinals when there's two good

00:49:32.554 --> 00:49:35.556
athletes at them for one or two spots.

00:49:35.596 --> 00:49:37.096
Like you need to bring.

00:49:38.697 --> 00:49:40.818
Thirty of like the best athletes to fight

00:49:40.918 --> 00:49:44.179
over nine spots and it's a mini games

00:49:44.219 --> 00:49:44.840
and people will.

00:49:45.059 --> 00:49:46.481
That's where you're going to maybe get

00:49:46.940 --> 00:49:49.983
people going to view in live in person.

00:49:53.880 --> 00:49:56.121
So here's the thing.

00:49:56.240 --> 00:49:57.521
I see both sides of this in a

00:49:57.541 --> 00:49:57.780
way.

00:49:59.541 --> 00:50:00.882
I don't think we need more semifinal,

00:50:01.443 --> 00:50:03.123
but we need more people that are willing

00:50:03.163 --> 00:50:06.684
to run semifinals and learn how to.

00:50:06.744 --> 00:50:08.744
We are burning out the semifinal people

00:50:08.764 --> 00:50:10.144
that we have that are good at it,

00:50:11.206 --> 00:50:12.786
and we're going to lose them because of

00:50:12.846 --> 00:50:12.945
it.

00:50:13.505 --> 00:50:16.166
The other thing is CrossFit is giving them

00:50:16.226 --> 00:50:19.387
no support, no way to sustain themselves,

00:50:19.969 --> 00:50:20.869
and they're losing money.

00:50:22.773 --> 00:50:24.994
And they've given them a shitty part of

00:50:25.014 --> 00:50:27.217
the season where there is no drama.

00:50:28.016 --> 00:50:29.518
People can go to eighteen different

00:50:29.797 --> 00:50:31.059
semifinals if they want.

00:50:32.619 --> 00:50:35.260
People aren't traveling to them to watch

00:50:35.322 --> 00:50:37.123
because there's so many of them and

00:50:37.143 --> 00:50:38.804
they'll get another opportunity down the

00:50:38.864 --> 00:50:40.385
road to see their favorite CrossFit

00:50:40.405 --> 00:50:40.844
athlete.

00:50:41.945 --> 00:50:43.545
So who wants to sign up for that

00:50:43.585 --> 00:50:43.927
junk?

00:50:47.889 --> 00:50:49.809
I think rather than add more,

00:50:49.829 --> 00:50:50.990
we're probably going to lose some.

00:50:52.385 --> 00:50:54.327
rightfully so i've said that if i was

00:50:54.347 --> 00:50:57.088
an event organizer i would say no f

00:50:57.128 --> 00:50:59.188
you run it yourself do it the way

00:50:59.208 --> 00:51:01.989
it should be done like and that's i

00:51:02.028 --> 00:51:03.590
think truly what needs to happen is people

00:51:03.610 --> 00:51:04.989
need to just back out and make hq

00:51:05.010 --> 00:51:06.510
take it over i think it's a lost

00:51:06.550 --> 00:51:08.211
cause that hq is probably never going to

00:51:08.231 --> 00:51:09.632
take it back over if that's what happens

00:51:09.672 --> 00:51:10.711
they'll probably go a hundred percent

00:51:10.751 --> 00:51:13.673
online um but yeah i'd rather see three

00:51:14.173 --> 00:51:17.775
incredibly strong semi-finals events

00:51:21.893 --> 00:51:22.956
And if you don't make it,

00:51:23.016 --> 00:51:24.318
you have the online portion.

00:51:24.818 --> 00:51:26.561
And if not, this is when, you know,

00:51:26.661 --> 00:51:27.983
trying to make WFP,

00:51:28.123 --> 00:51:30.045
going to Waterpalooza and all these other

00:51:30.106 --> 00:51:33.110
events are also rogue, are also options.

00:51:33.210 --> 00:51:33.731
And honestly,

00:51:33.751 --> 00:51:34.893
it makes more money than the CrossFit

00:51:34.913 --> 00:51:37.135
Games season because all of those

00:51:37.255 --> 00:51:37.757
athletes...

00:51:38.677 --> 00:51:40.539
that don't make it half the time they

00:51:40.559 --> 00:51:42.121
don't make anything at the games anyways

00:51:42.681 --> 00:51:44.242
so if you don't make it that year

00:51:44.262 --> 00:51:45.804
it just there's other opportunities in the

00:51:45.844 --> 00:51:47.947
season to continue to compete it's just

00:51:48.547 --> 00:51:50.168
you know people put all their eggs

00:51:50.188 --> 00:51:51.550
obviously across the game season because

00:51:51.590 --> 00:51:54.452
that is the biggest one like for sure

00:51:55.313 --> 00:51:57.655
but they would have a second chance online

00:51:58.836 --> 00:52:01.159
so it's still two chances there and i

00:52:01.199 --> 00:52:04.282
do think that that still works

00:52:07.003 --> 00:52:08.583
So Patrick says only in North America,

00:52:08.603 --> 00:52:10.226
French, Jordan, Torian, Far East, Copa,

00:52:10.246 --> 00:52:11.467
Sur and rebel are doing fine.

00:52:11.827 --> 00:52:13.509
That's because they only have one event

00:52:13.548 --> 00:52:14.369
per country.

00:52:14.829 --> 00:52:16.110
Well, I mean,

00:52:16.150 --> 00:52:17.132
he has a point there for one.

00:52:17.431 --> 00:52:19.333
I feel like, I mean, let's be real.

00:52:19.753 --> 00:52:21.014
Norcale is doing fine.

00:52:21.356 --> 00:52:22.737
And maybe Norcale shouldn't be a

00:52:22.777 --> 00:52:23.317
semifinal.

00:52:23.356 --> 00:52:24.778
They should just continue to run their,

00:52:26.041 --> 00:52:28.882
well like well-run comp that brings in a

00:52:28.943 --> 00:52:31.003
ton of community and that should be their

00:52:31.023 --> 00:52:32.565
thing and they should continue to make

00:52:32.605 --> 00:52:35.126
money on their event and then syndicate

00:52:35.766 --> 00:52:38.829
stays the like premier one here because

00:52:38.849 --> 00:52:43.592
it's kind of central and that's i i

00:52:43.672 --> 00:52:45.132
think the i mean that was the problem

00:52:45.152 --> 00:52:48.755
is we tore syndicate and nor kill in

00:52:48.815 --> 00:52:51.077
half being on the same weekend like you

00:52:51.117 --> 00:52:52.237
can't do that kind of thing

00:52:53.967 --> 00:52:54.708
I don't want more.

00:52:54.788 --> 00:52:56.128
I want less and I want everyone to

00:52:56.168 --> 00:52:59.030
go there.

00:52:59.110 --> 00:53:00.451
And then you have Del Mar and mayhem

00:53:01.331 --> 00:53:01.592
added.

00:53:01.652 --> 00:53:04.233
So now you have four semifinals in one

00:53:04.293 --> 00:53:06.675
country with people going to all like

00:53:06.715 --> 00:53:07.876
signing up for all of them,

00:53:07.936 --> 00:53:09.016
except for when they're on the same

00:53:09.036 --> 00:53:09.476
weekend.

00:53:10.737 --> 00:53:12.057
It's just bananas.

00:53:12.358 --> 00:53:13.418
I mean, mayhem is small.

00:53:13.539 --> 00:53:15.219
You're only going to draw so much crowd.

00:53:15.559 --> 00:53:18.242
So I'm not opposed to them remaining one.

00:53:19.302 --> 00:53:21.103
What sucks is it's so close to syndicate.

00:53:22.070 --> 00:53:22.952
location wise, right?

00:53:22.992 --> 00:53:24.813
Like it's kind of already that same crowd.

00:53:25.672 --> 00:53:25.813
Um,

00:53:25.893 --> 00:53:28.235
but ma'am is so small that not everyone

00:53:28.275 --> 00:53:28.954
can go there.

00:53:29.034 --> 00:53:33.737
So I guess syndicate could pull a bigger

00:53:33.777 --> 00:53:34.177
crowd.

00:53:35.139 --> 00:53:35.438
I don't know.

00:53:35.458 --> 00:53:37.440
All right.

00:53:37.920 --> 00:53:38.501
Next one.

00:53:39.021 --> 00:53:40.322
Quarterfinals revenue should be,

00:53:40.402 --> 00:53:42.884
have a percentage based and transparent

00:53:42.903 --> 00:53:45.184
split between CrossFit HQ and semifinal

00:53:45.385 --> 00:53:47.947
event hosts.

00:53:48.007 --> 00:53:48.246
Yes.

00:53:48.916 --> 00:53:50.217
I, I get it.

00:53:50.356 --> 00:53:50.836
Cause I think,

00:53:51.177 --> 00:53:52.117
I think they need to do a better

00:53:52.157 --> 00:53:55.259
job with handing money over for like age

00:53:55.298 --> 00:53:55.699
group too,

00:53:55.739 --> 00:53:58.400
but I just don't see them agreeing to

00:53:58.440 --> 00:53:58.621
this.

00:54:00.061 --> 00:54:00.242
Well,

00:54:00.461 --> 00:54:02.143
what's funny is the rule book says that

00:54:02.182 --> 00:54:03.844
the money earned from the open goes to

00:54:03.884 --> 00:54:06.105
like the prize purse and the quarterfinal.

00:54:06.125 --> 00:54:09.166
We have no idea where that goes to

00:54:09.186 --> 00:54:10.788
the, to the games budget.

00:54:10.987 --> 00:54:13.248
I'm sure it's not in the rule book.

00:54:13.628 --> 00:54:14.949
You're just making a big assumption.

00:54:15.443 --> 00:54:15.804
Yeah.

00:54:15.824 --> 00:54:16.043
Well,

00:54:16.905 --> 00:54:18.184
who knows if it even goes towards the

00:54:18.204 --> 00:54:18.766
games budget?

00:54:18.786 --> 00:54:20.005
Maybe that's just their pocket.

00:54:20.065 --> 00:54:21.847
And that's the money that like Karen said,

00:54:21.867 --> 00:54:22.467
that's their,

00:54:22.967 --> 00:54:25.268
that's how they made their books look back

00:54:25.289 --> 00:54:27.710
in black.

00:54:27.789 --> 00:54:32.532
It could be, I don't know.

00:54:32.972 --> 00:54:33.853
It's a private company.

00:54:34.152 --> 00:54:35.594
We're never going to know where that goes

00:54:35.634 --> 00:54:37.114
unless it's spelled out somewhere and it's

00:54:37.153 --> 00:54:37.875
not spelled out.

00:54:38.494 --> 00:54:39.835
Could be the Easter bonus for the

00:54:39.876 --> 00:54:40.295
employees.

00:54:40.315 --> 00:54:40.715
Who knows?

00:54:48.315 --> 00:54:50.956
But I do like the idea of me

00:54:50.996 --> 00:54:52.175
being more transparent with the

00:54:52.195 --> 00:54:54.496
quarterfinal money and showing where it

00:54:54.536 --> 00:54:54.916
goes.

00:54:56.077 --> 00:54:57.458
If they showed that it went to the

00:54:57.478 --> 00:54:58.177
game's budget,

00:54:58.619 --> 00:55:00.318
at least we'd know it's going to that.

00:55:00.818 --> 00:55:01.840
But there are people that do

00:55:01.880 --> 00:55:02.760
quarterfinals,

00:55:03.159 --> 00:55:04.521
and I don't know how big of a

00:55:04.561 --> 00:55:06.742
percentage this is, to support the season.

00:55:07.041 --> 00:55:08.702
People think that they're paying that

00:55:08.742 --> 00:55:10.643
money in support of the season,

00:55:10.963 --> 00:55:12.244
and we don't even know if the money

00:55:12.304 --> 00:55:13.224
goes to the season.

00:55:13.871 --> 00:55:14.090
Well,

00:55:14.652 --> 00:55:17.853
we also think people pay for the Open

00:55:17.893 --> 00:55:18.715
to support the season.

00:55:19.434 --> 00:55:20.396
We're getting to that, too.

00:55:24.679 --> 00:55:26.780
Individual semis should uniformly be a

00:55:26.840 --> 00:55:29.021
two-day competition with five to six

00:55:29.041 --> 00:55:30.882
scored events.

00:55:30.963 --> 00:55:31.503
At least six.

00:55:33.434 --> 00:55:34.635
I'm totally on board for the two-day.

00:55:35.375 --> 00:55:35.675
Totally.

00:55:35.695 --> 00:55:36.556
I'm on board for the two-day.

00:55:36.815 --> 00:55:37.295
I do agree.

00:55:37.335 --> 00:55:39.237
I think six is better because every

00:55:39.277 --> 00:55:41.036
semifinal always does a max lift and a

00:55:41.097 --> 00:55:41.297
run.

00:55:41.318 --> 00:55:42.257
I don't know.

00:55:42.577 --> 00:55:44.978
I just think six is a more well-rounded

00:55:45.039 --> 00:55:45.278
test.

00:55:45.298 --> 00:55:48.981
Yeah.

00:55:49.001 --> 00:55:50.721
The athletes can handle three events a

00:55:50.740 --> 00:55:51.282
day.

00:55:51.342 --> 00:55:52.702
A hundred percent.

00:55:52.762 --> 00:55:53.581
As long as, yeah.

00:55:53.922 --> 00:55:55.103
And then the other two days you could

00:55:55.143 --> 00:55:57.184
put the teams or masters there if you

00:55:57.224 --> 00:55:59.784
needed more or community divisions to add

00:55:59.804 --> 00:56:02.306
to your weekend.

00:56:05.065 --> 00:56:06.166
All right, and then finally,

00:56:06.266 --> 00:56:07.947
CrossFit should lean into age group

00:56:08.027 --> 00:56:10.889
athletes and team live semifinals as a way

00:56:10.929 --> 00:56:12.690
to improve competition and generate more

00:56:12.731 --> 00:56:15.273
participation.

00:56:15.293 --> 00:56:16.313
Yes, if you want to add the teams,

00:56:16.353 --> 00:56:16.813
that's one thing,

00:56:16.833 --> 00:56:19.596
but I think the age group kind of

00:56:19.615 --> 00:56:21.237
made their stand there this year on how

00:56:21.257 --> 00:56:21.858
that worked out.

00:56:24.239 --> 00:56:25.219
Well, there was no lean.

00:56:25.681 --> 00:56:25.880
I mean,

00:56:25.900 --> 00:56:27.742
they'd have to start leaning to lean more

00:56:27.802 --> 00:56:28.202
into.

00:56:29.684 --> 00:56:32.005
When you don't even acknowledge that they

00:56:32.065 --> 00:56:32.626
happened...

00:56:33.795 --> 00:56:35.856
during the games that were just down the

00:56:35.896 --> 00:56:37.918
street and it happened just days before

00:56:39.679 --> 00:56:42.000
there were no updates from the the teen

00:56:42.159 --> 00:56:44.320
group during the weekend while it was

00:56:44.360 --> 00:56:47.884
going on there now granted things move

00:56:47.923 --> 00:56:49.625
pretty quickly and there wasn't a lot of

00:56:49.684 --> 00:56:51.905
break between events but they had that

00:56:51.945 --> 00:56:54.146
video board running different things on it

00:56:54.588 --> 00:56:57.849
you're telling me you can't run footage of

00:56:58.942 --> 00:57:01.262
carolyn winning the thirty five to thirty

00:57:01.322 --> 00:57:03.603
nine noah winning thirty five to thirty

00:57:03.643 --> 00:57:05.844
nine rudy berger winning forty to forty

00:57:05.885 --> 00:57:08.826
four yeah yeah but they're not even

00:57:08.865 --> 00:57:13.487
talking about them highlighting like the

00:57:13.507 --> 00:57:15.467
games masters they're not even talking

00:57:15.507 --> 00:57:16.469
about they're literally talking about

00:57:16.548 --> 00:57:19.289
adding them to semifinals and i don't i

00:57:19.329 --> 00:57:20.909
don't think that that went well for the

00:57:21.110 --> 00:57:22.371
for the age groups

00:57:24.436 --> 00:57:25.777
Well, again, there's still no lean.

00:57:25.998 --> 00:57:27.577
Even when they were in the same place

00:57:27.737 --> 00:57:29.059
doing things at the same time,

00:57:29.398 --> 00:57:36.722
they didn't lean into that.

00:57:37.021 --> 00:57:39.623
All right.

00:57:40.284 --> 00:57:42.184
So I think that's all seven of the

00:57:42.804 --> 00:57:45.365
CAC recommendations.

00:57:45.405 --> 00:57:46.166
So I'll stop sharing.

00:57:46.686 --> 00:57:48.427
I appreciate the work that the CAC is

00:57:48.447 --> 00:57:49.007
doing, though,

00:57:49.128 --> 00:57:50.407
to bring these points up and...

00:57:53.614 --> 00:57:56.115
get some better, you know,

00:57:56.135 --> 00:57:57.335
get a better structure for the season.

00:57:57.476 --> 00:57:59.217
So definitely appreciate the work that

00:57:59.237 --> 00:58:00.918
they're doing and their ideas.

00:58:02.157 --> 00:58:03.818
Even if not everyone agrees with every

00:58:03.858 --> 00:58:05.599
single one of them, I think just having,

00:58:06.840 --> 00:58:07.039
you know,

00:58:07.079 --> 00:58:09.701
different representation on there and at

00:58:09.740 --> 00:58:13.362
least getting a dialogue going with HQ and

00:58:14.282 --> 00:58:15.922
the sport, I think is important.

00:58:15.943 --> 00:58:18.324
So we'll see where that goes.

00:58:20.398 --> 00:58:21.400
I wanted to,

00:58:21.420 --> 00:58:23.342
I'm going to skip ahead a little bit.

00:58:25.784 --> 00:58:27.306
WFP workouts were what,

00:58:27.427 --> 00:58:31.110
two weekish away from WFP tour stop two?

00:58:32.148 --> 00:58:34.108
while patrick's in the comments i'm going

00:58:34.128 --> 00:58:35.389
to put him on the spot since jamie

00:58:35.409 --> 00:58:37.188
and i have applied for media credentials

00:58:38.048 --> 00:58:40.048
uh we have not heard back in writing

00:58:40.289 --> 00:58:42.389
in and have not been able to make

00:58:42.429 --> 00:58:46.590
hotel reservations in indianapolis yet uh

00:58:46.610 --> 00:58:50.530
so just nudge nudge push push we have

00:58:50.570 --> 00:58:53.452
applied maybe i'll message brian again i

00:58:53.472 --> 00:58:55.152
had messaged brian because i was trying to

00:58:55.172 --> 00:58:56.891
look in to see if they had age

00:58:56.931 --> 00:58:59.472
group here but they don't they only have

00:58:59.492 --> 00:59:00.193
the finals unfortunately

00:59:00.853 --> 00:59:02.934
Yeah, and just in addition to this,

00:59:02.994 --> 00:59:09.077
Monster Games did announce that the

00:59:09.117 --> 00:59:11.398
winners of their competition get to go to

00:59:11.438 --> 00:59:12.719
Copenhagen and compete,

00:59:13.360 --> 00:59:14.820
and they put out a thing on Instagram,

00:59:14.860 --> 00:59:15.782
I believe it was today,

00:59:16.282 --> 00:59:17.983
which was a pretty cool little thing.

00:59:18.003 --> 00:59:20.103
Oh, we're approved.

00:59:21.063 --> 00:59:21.565
So we're approved,

00:59:21.864 --> 00:59:23.226
and so we need to clip this,

00:59:23.846 --> 00:59:25.306
print it out so we can bring it

00:59:25.327 --> 00:59:25.786
with us.

00:59:28.856 --> 00:59:29.817
All right.

00:59:29.836 --> 00:59:30.858
I need to get with Jamie then.

00:59:30.958 --> 00:59:33.579
And we need to figure out hotels.

00:59:33.599 --> 00:59:34.358
YouTube official.

00:59:37.041 --> 00:59:37.920
I'm going to put up, okay.

00:59:38.161 --> 00:59:40.601
Clip that clip clip that there we go.

00:59:40.621 --> 00:59:41.742
All right.

00:59:42.902 --> 00:59:44.784
So the workouts came out this week.

00:59:45.945 --> 00:59:46.045
Um,

00:59:46.925 --> 00:59:49.846
and Carolyn is going to be doing them.

00:59:49.865 --> 00:59:51.646
So I'd love to get the feedback on

00:59:51.686 --> 00:59:53.768
what we think of the workouts, uh,

00:59:53.827 --> 00:59:56.469
for tour stop number two in grand park,

00:59:56.889 --> 00:59:57.809
uh, Indiana.

01:00:00.353 --> 01:00:02.516
The Combine.

01:00:02.536 --> 01:00:04.099
Forty-yard dash, pro agility,

01:00:04.141 --> 01:00:06.605
five-ten-five shuttle, max broad jump.

01:00:06.625 --> 01:00:08.969
Loves it.

01:00:10.085 --> 01:00:11.967
Big hearts, big hearts, big hearts.

01:00:12.706 --> 01:00:13.246
Yeah, I mean,

01:00:13.407 --> 01:00:16.527
I've been waiting for thirteen years for

01:00:16.568 --> 01:00:17.528
something like this to show up.

01:00:17.588 --> 01:00:17.789
I mean,

01:00:17.969 --> 01:00:20.449
I would have liked to have been younger,

01:00:21.289 --> 01:00:22.971
but I'm excited for them to do this.

01:00:22.990 --> 01:00:26.092
I haven't actually been sprinting because

01:00:26.132 --> 01:00:28.333
I hurt my hamstring running a couple weeks

01:00:28.413 --> 01:00:30.873
or a week and a half ago.

01:00:30.914 --> 01:00:31.153
So,

01:00:31.293 --> 01:00:32.693
but I'm hoping to be back in all

01:00:33.175 --> 01:00:35.956
Tuesday to start re-implementing some

01:00:36.315 --> 01:00:37.036
sprinting again.

01:00:38.217 --> 01:00:39.317
Went a little bit too hard

01:00:39.856 --> 01:00:40.896
And I'm a little too old.

01:00:41.777 --> 01:00:42.597
Know your age.

01:00:44.858 --> 01:00:45.617
It wasn't too bad.

01:00:45.657 --> 01:00:46.018
It was just,

01:00:46.199 --> 01:00:48.099
it was a little bit of a pull,

01:00:48.398 --> 01:00:49.898
but it was just enough that I was

01:00:49.938 --> 01:00:51.059
like, okay, you're not,

01:00:51.519 --> 01:00:52.719
you're not twenty-five anymore.

01:00:53.159 --> 01:00:54.659
Can't do what you used to do.

01:00:55.221 --> 01:00:59.380
So, it was a little wake-up call.

01:01:00.981 --> 01:01:02.442
I'm hoping this isn't a place it's easy

01:01:02.481 --> 01:01:03.001
to watch.

01:01:04.063 --> 01:01:05.682
I want to see the five-ten shuttle so

01:01:05.722 --> 01:01:05.943
bad.

01:01:08.282 --> 01:01:09.927
That's the one I think I like the

01:01:09.967 --> 01:01:12.413
most of the three, I believe.

01:01:15.938 --> 01:01:18.320
Yeah.

01:01:18.340 --> 01:01:20.840
There was supposed to be a vertical jump,

01:01:21.039 --> 01:01:22.981
but I don't know if they took that

01:01:23.001 --> 01:01:23.380
away.

01:01:23.840 --> 01:01:25.101
So like at the Monster Games,

01:01:25.121 --> 01:01:26.260
they did a vertical jump,

01:01:26.440 --> 01:01:28.302
but it was like a time in the

01:01:28.402 --> 01:01:28.561
air.

01:01:29.041 --> 01:01:31.181
I think sometimes people kind of pike and

01:01:31.521 --> 01:01:32.862
because it's not just like a hitting,

01:01:33.023 --> 01:01:34.463
it was just like a vertical jump.

01:01:34.503 --> 01:01:35.862
And I think they probably just scratched

01:01:35.882 --> 01:01:36.063
that.

01:01:36.202 --> 01:01:38.224
I'm assuming because of the difficulty of

01:01:38.264 --> 01:01:39.864
judging that movement.

01:01:39.923 --> 01:01:42.945
But yeah, excited to see this combine.

01:01:43.711 --> 01:01:44.992
I wanted to put this up because this

01:01:45.012 --> 01:01:45.952
is a topic for later.

01:01:47.054 --> 01:01:47.994
Seth has taken off,

01:01:48.054 --> 01:01:50.375
but he'll say for future discussion that

01:01:50.394 --> 01:01:52.155
the master's payouts will be a topic of

01:01:52.195 --> 01:01:54.757
discussion at Thursday's CAC meeting.

01:01:54.896 --> 01:01:57.697
We've been told we will get clarity on

01:01:57.737 --> 01:01:57.958
that.

01:01:58.498 --> 01:01:58.778
Good.

01:01:59.039 --> 01:02:01.719
I saw Halpin's post that asked if they

01:02:01.739 --> 01:02:03.920
could audit the numbers if the CAC gets

01:02:03.940 --> 01:02:05.442
asked for an audit.

01:02:06.313 --> 01:02:06.474
I mean,

01:02:06.494 --> 01:02:07.655
it's not just affecting the masters,

01:02:07.715 --> 01:02:08.815
it's affecting the individuals.

01:02:08.856 --> 01:02:10.358
They're going off the same numbers for the

01:02:10.398 --> 01:02:10.898
individual.

01:02:10.918 --> 01:02:13.380
So people like, it's not, yeah,

01:02:13.460 --> 01:02:14.521
it's all of it.

01:02:15.922 --> 01:02:16.163
Yeah.

01:02:16.182 --> 01:02:16.724
Awesome.

01:02:17.463 --> 01:02:18.284
I'm glad to hear that.

01:02:19.726 --> 01:02:19.806
Uh,

01:02:20.027 --> 01:02:21.887
Indianapolis is the home of the combine

01:02:21.927 --> 01:02:22.608
for the NFL.

01:02:22.929 --> 01:02:24.070
So it is kind of cool that they're

01:02:24.090 --> 01:02:25.831
doing the combine in Indianapolis.

01:02:26.905 --> 01:02:27.927
That is cool.

01:02:28.306 --> 01:02:28.806
I'm looking forward.

01:02:28.827 --> 01:02:30.949
I think you have some athletes that are

01:02:30.969 --> 01:02:31.869
probably going to do really,

01:02:31.909 --> 01:02:33.951
really well here that we just don't know

01:02:33.990 --> 01:02:35.411
that they have this type of background.

01:02:35.552 --> 01:02:37.432
We've never tested this in CrossFit.

01:02:38.052 --> 01:02:38.313
Never.

01:02:38.614 --> 01:02:43.237
No one's had the balls to do it.

01:02:44.498 --> 01:02:45.358
I'm excited to see it.

01:02:45.679 --> 01:02:46.858
Who's the fastest?

01:02:47.139 --> 01:02:47.860
Who's agile?

01:02:47.920 --> 01:02:49.681
Who can jump far?

01:02:49.721 --> 01:02:50.121
I love it.

01:02:51.041 --> 01:02:52.043
I don't know how they're going to score

01:02:52.123 --> 01:02:52.222
it.

01:02:53.557 --> 01:02:54.998
Because we have fifty athletes taking the

01:02:55.039 --> 01:02:55.480
test.

01:02:56.460 --> 01:02:56.601
Like,

01:02:56.621 --> 01:02:59.083
are they worth thirty three something

01:02:59.503 --> 01:03:00.905
point three points each?

01:03:00.925 --> 01:03:02.567
I don't know.

01:03:02.586 --> 01:03:03.068
Fifty points.

01:03:03.228 --> 01:03:03.387
Yeah.

01:03:03.507 --> 01:03:04.208
At Monster Games,

01:03:04.248 --> 01:03:06.431
I think Corey told me they were there

01:03:06.451 --> 01:03:08.313
was four events and they were twenty five

01:03:08.393 --> 01:03:08.833
each.

01:03:09.193 --> 01:03:09.454
OK.

01:03:10.791 --> 01:03:12.331
Um, so,

01:03:12.472 --> 01:03:14.913
and then Patrick did say that they,

01:03:15.152 --> 01:03:16.893
that monster was a test run.

01:03:17.873 --> 01:03:18.833
So we'll see.

01:03:19.833 --> 01:03:20.054
Um,

01:03:21.394 --> 01:03:24.054
there was something I wanted to share and

01:03:24.074 --> 01:03:24.875
now I lost it.

01:03:27.715 --> 01:03:31.197
Oh, well, um, yeah.

01:03:31.556 --> 01:03:34.657
Excited for that one too.

01:03:35.018 --> 01:03:36.097
Uh, Phil says,

01:03:36.157 --> 01:03:37.478
I think he might do well in this

01:03:37.577 --> 01:03:37.657
one.

01:03:39.559 --> 01:03:40.219
I think you're right.

01:03:41.735 --> 01:03:44.398
again they're in a field of fifty there

01:03:44.438 --> 01:03:46.661
can be someone that has a hundred meter

01:03:46.702 --> 01:03:48.623
track and field background that we have no

01:03:48.704 --> 01:03:51.867
idea about or like a pure sprinter like

01:03:51.887 --> 01:03:53.668
we have no idea like we just haven't

01:03:53.708 --> 01:03:57.072
tested this this type of stuff and i

01:03:57.092 --> 01:04:00.836
don't know what um birchfield means and he

01:04:00.856 --> 01:04:02.900
says i don't know about that carolyn

01:04:05.422 --> 01:04:08.724
um pro vent to uh twelve parallel

01:04:08.764 --> 01:04:11.306
handstand push-ups twenty four ghd sit-ups

01:04:11.346 --> 01:04:14.407
twelve box jump over six flip sled four

01:04:14.447 --> 01:04:17.248
rounds for time i love the flip sled

01:04:17.748 --> 01:04:22.552
yeah it's it's really just a mini pig

01:04:22.592 --> 01:04:24.012
i've never really used i think i've only

01:04:24.132 --> 01:04:25.974
used it once and it was at wadapalooza

01:04:26.353 --> 01:04:27.175
many many years ago

01:04:28.018 --> 01:04:28.400
Um,

01:04:28.420 --> 01:04:30.041
I normally like the pig at the games.

01:04:31.061 --> 01:04:31.641
I like this one.

01:04:31.661 --> 01:04:33.362
There's some, um,

01:04:33.382 --> 01:04:34.483
like the flip side is almost like a

01:04:34.523 --> 01:04:34.985
clean and jerk,

01:04:35.005 --> 01:04:36.626
which will get the shoulders tired for

01:04:37.445 --> 01:04:38.407
probably hands and pushups.

01:04:38.427 --> 01:04:38.527
Like,

01:04:38.547 --> 01:04:40.168
I think this is a nice athletic event

01:04:40.469 --> 01:04:42.110
and I like it.

01:04:42.190 --> 01:04:43.090
I really like this event.

01:04:43.630 --> 01:04:44.211
Yeah, it's cool.

01:04:45.172 --> 01:04:46.253
Uh, then we have a ten K run.

01:04:47.833 --> 01:04:50.577
So we go forty yard dash to ten

01:04:50.617 --> 01:04:51.918
K run.

01:04:52.018 --> 01:04:53.298
I mean, if I like number one,

01:04:53.358 --> 01:04:54.820
I probably don't like number three for

01:04:58.543 --> 01:04:59.967
But I think both are important in a

01:05:00.007 --> 01:05:00.688
test of fitness.

01:05:01.449 --> 01:05:01.670
You know,

01:05:01.690 --> 01:05:04.134
someone like Kringle will do well at both.

01:05:05.115 --> 01:05:06.277
And that's why she's the fittest.

01:05:07.719 --> 01:05:09.242
But I think it's an important test that

01:05:09.262 --> 01:05:09.744
like, like,

01:05:10.427 --> 01:05:11.088
You have to do both.

01:05:11.148 --> 01:05:13.608
And we always only do the distance.

01:05:14.190 --> 01:05:15.710
So that's why I'm finally happy that we

01:05:15.731 --> 01:05:16.911
get to see the other side of it.

01:05:17.753 --> 01:05:19.554
Because there are people that we always

01:05:19.713 --> 01:05:21.034
assume that they're horrible runners,

01:05:21.536 --> 01:05:23.117
but they're just not great distance

01:05:23.157 --> 01:05:23.496
runners,

01:05:23.757 --> 01:05:26.139
but they could be excellent sprinters.

01:05:26.179 --> 01:05:28.081
So yeah, I think that's fine.

01:05:28.860 --> 01:05:30.302
And then Scott's favorite workout,

01:05:30.461 --> 01:05:34.344
the one rep max bench press.

01:05:34.405 --> 01:05:38.568
I'm going to get embarrassed here.

01:05:38.849 --> 01:05:40.150
Is Alex doing a WRP?

01:05:41.157 --> 01:05:45.498
no no okay she really wanted to do

01:05:45.559 --> 01:05:47.079
it because of the bench press i think

01:05:47.099 --> 01:05:49.119
she was very very curious but i think

01:05:49.159 --> 01:05:51.780
on the girls um podcast she said that

01:05:52.300 --> 01:05:53.661
she had a trip or something and then

01:05:53.701 --> 01:05:55.822
didn't want to think about having to train

01:05:55.842 --> 01:05:58.802
for wfp so i think she doesn't like

01:05:58.862 --> 01:06:01.822
it or is not doing it me personally

01:06:01.842 --> 01:06:09.025
you know number three and four is no

01:06:09.085 --> 01:06:09.905
yeah i'd like to be great

01:06:11.094 --> 01:06:11.855
I mean, I think, again,

01:06:11.894 --> 01:06:12.695
but I think it's going to be cool

01:06:12.715 --> 01:06:14.675
to see who can bench.

01:06:14.715 --> 01:06:14.896
I mean,

01:06:14.916 --> 01:06:16.137
that's kind of part of like the combine

01:06:16.197 --> 01:06:21.257
all the time is bench.

01:06:21.277 --> 01:06:22.179
Yeah.

01:06:22.219 --> 01:06:25.199
The test in the combine is taking two

01:06:25.239 --> 01:06:27.179
twenty five as many reps as you can.

01:06:27.340 --> 01:06:27.539
Right.

01:06:28.061 --> 01:06:28.981
And like for women,

01:06:29.021 --> 01:06:31.242
maybe that's one forty five or one fifty.

01:06:31.362 --> 01:06:31.762
I don't know.

01:06:32.121 --> 01:06:32.581
Somewhere in there.

01:06:33.295 --> 01:06:34.655
I don't think you would do one fifty

01:06:34.675 --> 01:06:34.835
five,

01:06:34.856 --> 01:06:36.197
which would normally be the standard.

01:06:36.336 --> 01:06:37.478
I think you would probably do.

01:06:37.858 --> 01:06:37.978
Yeah,

01:06:38.018 --> 01:06:40.059
I think guys can just bench better than

01:06:40.099 --> 01:06:41.400
females in general.

01:06:41.440 --> 01:06:42.780
Minus like a few.

01:06:44.349 --> 01:06:46.650
Um, but yeah, I mean, you know,

01:06:46.750 --> 01:06:48.471
this is setting up to be a back

01:06:48.490 --> 01:06:51.711
squat probably in the finals of WFP

01:06:51.751 --> 01:06:54.313
because last year they had some, um,

01:06:54.373 --> 01:06:56.293
Olympic lifting for their three stages of

01:06:56.333 --> 01:06:57.054
their max lift.

01:06:57.474 --> 01:06:59.755
Now you're seeing, um, power lifts,

01:06:59.974 --> 01:07:01.876
you know, you had the deadlift, the bench,

01:07:02.096 --> 01:07:04.976
and then the back squat is what I'm

01:07:04.996 --> 01:07:06.498
assuming will be in the finals.

01:07:07.438 --> 01:07:08.219
But, uh,

01:07:14.373 --> 01:07:16.112
um so then we move on to uh

01:07:17.114 --> 01:07:19.173
number five two rounds for time fifty

01:07:19.193 --> 01:07:21.295
chest to bar twenty five sandbag squats

01:07:21.675 --> 01:07:26.635
hundred fifty sled push ouch legs heavy uh

01:07:26.655 --> 01:07:28.775
sandbag squats i'm assuming we can

01:07:28.815 --> 01:07:32.717
probably hold the big sandbag here but

01:07:33.617 --> 01:07:35.838
yeah that's gonna be painful i mean i

01:07:35.898 --> 01:07:37.077
kind of hope you have to have it

01:07:37.117 --> 01:07:38.918
up there like i hope it's not the

01:07:39.038 --> 01:07:40.659
bear hug because people will just like hit

01:07:40.679 --> 01:07:41.378
it off their thighs

01:07:42.751 --> 01:07:43.431
Yeah, I don't think so.

01:07:43.451 --> 01:07:44.731
And I don't think it's going to,

01:07:44.751 --> 01:07:46.351
maybe just one shoulder.

01:07:47.052 --> 01:07:48.172
Is it two hundred one fifty?

01:07:49.112 --> 01:07:50.413
Yeah, it's pretty heavy.

01:07:51.494 --> 01:07:53.034
I don't know that I've done a one

01:07:53.054 --> 01:07:53.914
fifty squat.

01:07:55.275 --> 01:07:57.835
But that's a tough one.

01:07:58.496 --> 01:07:59.335
Those legs are going to be sore.

01:07:59.735 --> 01:08:00.076
Workout.

01:08:00.215 --> 01:08:00.677
I like this one.

01:08:00.717 --> 01:08:01.617
It'll be fun to watch.

01:08:01.657 --> 01:08:01.777
Yeah.

01:08:03.503 --> 01:08:08.327
um number six uh four time thirty twenty

01:08:08.367 --> 01:08:10.010
two calorie echo bike hundred and fifty

01:08:10.050 --> 01:08:12.391
yard swim rest two minutes hundred and

01:08:12.411 --> 01:08:15.255
fifty yard swim thirty twenty two cal echo

01:08:15.275 --> 01:08:18.478
bike carolyn's gonna be wearing her wings

01:08:18.497 --> 01:08:22.542
i mean

01:08:23.347 --> 01:08:24.569
participating in this one?

01:08:25.229 --> 01:08:26.310
This is early.

01:08:27.311 --> 01:08:28.773
This is I think the first one has

01:08:28.813 --> 01:08:30.015
a I think the first one has a

01:08:30.095 --> 01:08:31.315
five minute time cap.

01:08:31.376 --> 01:08:33.217
And then everyone originally,

01:08:33.238 --> 01:08:35.640
I think that's how they had posted it.

01:08:35.659 --> 01:08:36.820
So you have a five minute time cap

01:08:36.860 --> 01:08:38.243
rest two minutes and then you start the

01:08:38.262 --> 01:08:38.622
other way.

01:08:39.604 --> 01:08:40.244
But well,

01:08:40.265 --> 01:08:42.627
that would equal to the overall cap.

01:08:42.646 --> 01:08:44.469
So that makes sense.

01:08:44.488 --> 01:08:47.671
And then finally,

01:08:50.372 --> 01:08:52.654
we'll go to the four-time, thirty-five,

01:08:52.673 --> 01:08:53.814
twenty-five calorie row,

01:08:54.293 --> 01:08:55.515
twenty-five bar muscle-ups,

01:08:55.534 --> 01:08:56.875
hundred-fifty handstand walk,

01:08:57.335 --> 01:09:02.476
five squat snatch.

01:09:02.516 --> 01:09:04.936
What's the weight?

01:09:04.957 --> 01:09:06.658
It is two-forty-five, one-seventy.

01:09:07.177 --> 01:09:07.957
Jesus!

01:09:09.078 --> 01:09:10.099
Yeah, that's hard.

01:09:10.139 --> 01:09:10.719
I haven't tried that,

01:09:10.979 --> 01:09:11.878
but nine-minute time cap,

01:09:12.239 --> 01:09:13.060
that's going to be heavy for me on

01:09:13.079 --> 01:09:14.020
the barbell.

01:09:14.079 --> 01:09:15.841
That is insane.

01:09:15.881 --> 01:09:17.220
For me, it's like a weight that

01:09:18.180 --> 01:09:18.520
You know,

01:09:18.780 --> 01:09:20.801
I haven't touched a barbell in this

01:09:20.862 --> 01:09:21.323
workout.

01:09:21.943 --> 01:09:22.884
You know, you have a ten,

01:09:22.923 --> 01:09:23.984
fifteen minute corral.

01:09:24.345 --> 01:09:25.405
You have the bar muscle ups.

01:09:25.426 --> 01:09:26.345
You have the handstands.

01:09:26.386 --> 01:09:28.007
You're very fatigued in the shoulders,

01:09:28.028 --> 01:09:28.847
your high heart rate.

01:09:29.248 --> 01:09:30.128
And then for me,

01:09:30.168 --> 01:09:31.591
this is a weight that like I have

01:09:31.631 --> 01:09:33.532
to definitely respect.

01:09:33.891 --> 01:09:35.212
And it's a heavy weight for me.

01:09:35.873 --> 01:09:37.015
So I don't know how I'm going to

01:09:37.034 --> 01:09:37.895
feel when I get there.

01:09:37.954 --> 01:09:39.055
I haven't tested this workout.

01:09:39.256 --> 01:09:40.618
I'll probably give it a go at some

01:09:40.637 --> 01:09:42.338
point this week or next week.

01:09:45.173 --> 01:09:46.314
And then the people that are very,

01:09:46.354 --> 01:09:46.954
very strong,

01:09:47.515 --> 01:09:49.595
I think the front half will be irrelevant

01:09:49.614 --> 01:09:50.796
because if they're able to do the

01:09:50.815 --> 01:09:53.936
one-seventy and just go boom, boom, boom,

01:09:54.077 --> 01:09:56.617
or even, I mean, if you're Gi,

01:09:56.636 --> 01:09:57.957
you can maybe go touch and go.

01:09:58.478 --> 01:10:00.099
I think that's the big separator is the

01:10:00.118 --> 01:10:01.198
five-squat snatches,

01:10:01.298 --> 01:10:03.158
and the rest is all movements that anyone

01:10:03.179 --> 01:10:04.600
in this field would have no problem doing.

01:10:05.140 --> 01:10:06.520
So I think you could have just done

01:10:06.560 --> 01:10:07.501
almost a snatch there.

01:10:07.720 --> 01:10:10.601
This is exactly how I felt about the

01:10:10.662 --> 01:10:12.862
second workout at the Masters Games.

01:10:12.902 --> 01:10:13.042
Like,

01:10:13.141 --> 01:10:14.502
I don't like this workout for you guys.

01:10:15.485 --> 01:10:17.027
dumb.

01:10:17.046 --> 01:10:18.127
It's just not a test of fitness.

01:10:18.148 --> 01:10:21.890
I think it's fine,

01:10:21.911 --> 01:10:24.271
but I do think it's very skewed to

01:10:24.311 --> 01:10:25.813
the barbell at the end.

01:10:31.136 --> 01:10:33.319
Can I just say overall, I really,

01:10:33.399 --> 01:10:34.500
really like these events.

01:10:35.591 --> 01:10:37.131
I like that you have sled pushes.

01:10:37.311 --> 01:10:39.332
I like that you have a combine.

01:10:39.472 --> 01:10:42.533
I like that you have flip sleds.

01:10:42.573 --> 01:10:46.194
There's all the odd object stuff that we

01:10:46.253 --> 01:10:51.314
didn't have at the Masters CrossFit Games.

01:10:51.414 --> 01:10:51.534
Yeah.

01:10:51.555 --> 01:10:52.954
I think they did a great job with

01:10:52.975 --> 01:10:53.635
the programming.

01:10:54.836 --> 01:10:56.155
And they're not making them squat with a

01:10:56.195 --> 01:10:56.515
med ball.

01:10:56.536 --> 01:10:58.435
Yeah.

01:10:58.456 --> 01:10:59.636
There's events that I'm not going to like

01:10:59.676 --> 01:11:00.636
or I'm not going to do very well,

01:11:00.657 --> 01:11:02.497
but I still think it's a good test.

01:11:06.310 --> 01:11:06.569
Yeah.

01:11:07.551 --> 01:11:09.152
I love that it's sled pushes.

01:11:09.231 --> 01:11:12.515
I love that it's flip sleds and just

01:11:12.574 --> 01:11:14.756
grunt work at times.

01:11:15.436 --> 01:11:17.639
That's the gritty CrossFit that has to be

01:11:17.658 --> 01:11:18.520
a part of something.

01:11:19.439 --> 01:11:20.240
And if it's not there,

01:11:20.261 --> 01:11:26.666
it just doesn't feel special.

01:11:26.725 --> 01:11:26.886
I mean,

01:11:26.945 --> 01:11:28.908
I know when a local comp has a

01:11:28.967 --> 01:11:29.488
flip sled,

01:11:29.507 --> 01:11:31.329
we get all excited because it's something

01:11:31.890 --> 01:11:33.030
you don't get to touch every day.

01:11:36.046 --> 01:11:43.090
so uh those are those are um those

01:11:43.109 --> 01:11:47.131
are the workouts uh justin kotler agrees

01:11:47.152 --> 01:11:58.256
with prevo uh good competition for tutor i

01:11:58.275 --> 01:11:59.917
don't know how good he is running gonna

01:11:59.957 --> 01:12:01.917
be good yeah i don't feel like i

01:12:01.938 --> 01:12:03.018
don't even know how he'll be at the

01:12:03.057 --> 01:12:04.899
combine to be honest like i don't know

01:12:05.833 --> 01:12:08.975
I've not seen his athleticism on display

01:12:09.015 --> 01:12:11.636
to know.

01:12:11.856 --> 01:12:12.898
I think Carolyn's right.

01:12:12.957 --> 01:12:14.057
I think we don't know.

01:12:14.958 --> 01:12:16.760
The combine is a we don't know,

01:12:16.899 --> 01:12:18.980
unless you're Guy or Amy Kringle.

01:12:20.282 --> 01:12:22.063
You know certain people that will do well,

01:12:22.203 --> 01:12:23.423
but you don't know who's going to win

01:12:23.463 --> 01:12:25.805
because in a field of fifty,

01:12:26.225 --> 01:12:28.046
there's some outliers on this kind of

01:12:28.126 --> 01:12:28.405
stuff.

01:12:29.087 --> 01:12:30.868
I know I'm going to do well at

01:12:30.908 --> 01:12:31.347
the combine,

01:12:31.448 --> 01:12:32.748
but I don't know where I am.

01:12:33.809 --> 01:12:35.210
There could be freaks there.

01:12:36.328 --> 01:12:37.511
Um, like, you know,

01:12:37.530 --> 01:12:38.971
Kringle is going to do well at all

01:12:38.992 --> 01:12:40.154
of it, but for the most part,

01:12:40.613 --> 01:12:42.036
I think people are going to enjoy a

01:12:42.076 --> 01:12:43.618
couple of the workouts and then get

01:12:43.677 --> 01:12:45.219
exposed on other parts of the workouts.

01:12:45.260 --> 01:12:48.283
And I think that's exciting.

01:12:48.603 --> 01:12:48.904
Like that,

01:12:48.944 --> 01:12:50.324
that that's a good test of fitness.

01:12:50.404 --> 01:12:53.288
If you're kind of worried with some and

01:12:53.389 --> 01:12:54.250
excited for others.

01:12:54.990 --> 01:12:55.952
Um, yeah.

01:12:57.574 --> 01:12:59.856
How are some of the girls doing that

01:13:00.077 --> 01:13:00.757
were at the games?

01:13:00.877 --> 01:13:03.158
Is Lydia coming?

01:13:03.260 --> 01:13:04.020
Is Hannah Black?

01:13:04.541 --> 01:13:05.902
How's her back?

01:13:07.182 --> 01:13:08.262
They're signed up right now,

01:13:08.283 --> 01:13:09.564
so I think Lydia,

01:13:10.685 --> 01:13:12.046
Hannah Black is doing it.

01:13:12.846 --> 01:13:14.207
Annika's not doing it.

01:13:14.908 --> 01:13:17.649
Fi, who's a pro, not doing it.

01:13:18.951 --> 01:13:20.372
I think those are the two female pros

01:13:20.393 --> 01:13:21.153
that aren't doing it.

01:13:22.054 --> 01:13:23.494
And then, yeah, I mean, you have

01:13:25.091 --> 01:13:26.832
Who else from the games Burgos is there

01:13:26.891 --> 01:13:27.252
as well.

01:13:27.273 --> 01:13:29.154
Okay.

01:13:29.173 --> 01:13:29.954
She's not a pro,

01:13:30.114 --> 01:13:31.676
but she was an athlete that was at

01:13:31.695 --> 01:13:32.176
the games.

01:13:33.256 --> 01:13:35.137
But certainly will be in the picture to

01:13:35.177 --> 01:13:36.158
get a pro card this year.

01:13:38.480 --> 01:13:39.560
Yeah, even bench press.

01:13:40.202 --> 01:13:41.603
It's more than raw strength.

01:13:41.643 --> 01:13:43.823
If you don't keep the barbell path, right,

01:13:43.844 --> 01:13:44.805
you're not going to make the lift.

01:13:45.345 --> 01:13:48.807
Like it is consistency with raw strength.

01:13:51.859 --> 01:13:53.360
And that's going to be a question mark

01:13:53.381 --> 01:13:53.621
too.

01:13:53.661 --> 01:13:55.302
Like, yeah, this person's strong,

01:13:55.342 --> 01:13:57.304
but are they strong in a consistent manner

01:13:57.323 --> 01:13:58.005
with a bench press?

01:13:58.024 --> 01:14:02.788
Yep.

01:14:06.171 --> 01:14:06.490
Chivalry.

01:14:06.511 --> 01:14:06.572
Yep.

01:14:06.591 --> 01:14:08.592
I have the rosters if people want to

01:14:08.613 --> 01:14:09.793
see it, but it's fifties,

01:14:09.953 --> 01:14:10.795
a lot of names to read.

01:14:12.235 --> 01:14:15.377
I don't know how many sub-fives on the

01:14:15.377 --> 01:14:17.038
.

01:14:15.658 --> 01:14:16.118
I'm not sure,

01:14:16.158 --> 01:14:17.979
but I also don't know how they're going

01:14:18.079 --> 01:14:20.702
to calculate it if you get to start

01:14:20.962 --> 01:14:27.506
one yard behind the speed gates or not.

01:14:28.386 --> 01:14:31.369
Depending on where the gates start,

01:14:31.770 --> 01:14:34.412
it can affect how many people I think

01:14:34.431 --> 01:14:35.292
can get sub-five.

01:14:37.654 --> 01:14:38.014
Listen,

01:14:38.475 --> 01:14:40.435
sub-five is not that difficult for a male

01:14:41.015 --> 01:14:41.697
that's in shape.

01:14:42.832 --> 01:14:43.353
In high school,

01:14:43.412 --> 01:14:45.574
I ran sub five and I'm not that

01:14:45.595 --> 01:14:47.775
fast.

01:14:47.796 --> 01:14:49.658
These guys are in way better shape than

01:14:49.757 --> 01:14:52.340
I was.

01:14:52.359 --> 01:14:52.479
Like,

01:14:52.539 --> 01:14:54.621
I wouldn't be surprised if geese like four

01:14:54.740 --> 01:14:59.244
or five, four, six.

01:14:59.404 --> 01:15:01.786
It depends if they go a yard before

01:15:01.865 --> 01:15:02.567
he would be faster.

01:15:09.229 --> 01:15:09.389
I mean,

01:15:09.429 --> 01:15:12.731
I was like four nine in high school,

01:15:12.771 --> 01:15:15.333
but I did go sub five.

01:15:16.354 --> 01:15:17.756
And we had kids on my football team

01:15:17.796 --> 01:15:21.259
going four sixes, four sevens.

01:15:22.439 --> 01:15:25.542
So if they can do it as...

01:15:25.622 --> 01:15:27.703
The Apex were going on this past weekend,

01:15:27.743 --> 01:15:28.664
I think in Chicago.

01:15:29.104 --> 01:15:30.166
And you have a lot of the forty

01:15:30.185 --> 01:15:33.488
times there.

01:15:33.529 --> 01:15:34.050
For females,

01:15:34.069 --> 01:15:35.411
there's a few that were sub five.

01:15:37.815 --> 01:15:38.737
for the men.

01:15:38.756 --> 01:15:39.597
I think there was one guy that was

01:15:39.618 --> 01:15:41.298
like four to something.

01:15:41.920 --> 01:15:42.420
But again,

01:15:42.479 --> 01:15:48.867
I think they were starting a yard behind.

01:15:48.886 --> 01:15:48.987
Yeah,

01:15:49.006 --> 01:15:51.769
I think Patrick says NFL combined

01:15:51.788 --> 01:15:52.250
standards,

01:15:52.289 --> 01:15:54.011
and I think that is like a track

01:15:54.051 --> 01:16:00.016
start.

01:16:00.056 --> 01:16:00.797
And then it becomes...

01:16:02.155 --> 01:16:03.457
what do they allow for the starting

01:16:03.497 --> 01:16:03.917
position?

01:16:04.077 --> 01:16:05.158
Does it have to be a two point

01:16:05.198 --> 01:16:05.497
start?

01:16:05.979 --> 01:16:08.199
Can you do like,

01:16:08.220 --> 01:16:09.541
I don't know if they have certain rules,

01:16:09.581 --> 01:16:13.003
I guess we'll see what the standards are

01:16:13.024 --> 01:16:16.086
for how they want us to start.

01:16:16.105 --> 01:16:27.713
Three point or two point.

01:16:27.774 --> 01:16:28.515
So, okay.

01:16:30.056 --> 01:16:31.859
last thing i wanted to talk about tonight

01:16:32.259 --> 01:16:34.201
and seth already addressed this in the

01:16:34.240 --> 01:16:41.908
comments earlier um well there's okay the

01:16:42.949 --> 01:16:49.716
masters payouts were announced they came

01:16:49.777 --> 01:16:51.679
in lower than what people expected

01:16:52.608 --> 01:16:54.190
They were based on two hundred forty two

01:16:54.211 --> 01:16:55.993
thousand participants in the open.

01:16:56.914 --> 01:16:58.658
When CrossFit itself announced that there

01:16:58.677 --> 01:17:01.682
were two hundred fifty four thousand plus

01:17:02.123 --> 01:17:02.784
participants,

01:17:03.445 --> 01:17:05.789
meaning that twelve thousand participants

01:17:05.970 --> 01:17:07.192
and their money disappeared.

01:17:11.194 --> 01:17:13.216
And when,

01:17:13.235 --> 01:17:15.137
and I talked about this on Friday a

01:17:15.158 --> 01:17:17.859
little bit, but when spin posted this,

01:17:17.918 --> 01:17:20.701
the comments were about how much money the

01:17:20.961 --> 01:17:22.601
masters were getting or not getting,

01:17:22.681 --> 01:17:23.922
or was it fair?

01:17:23.962 --> 01:17:24.743
Was it not fair?

01:17:25.104 --> 01:17:27.164
The big story here is not that the

01:17:27.204 --> 01:17:31.127
big story is that there is money missing.

01:17:31.148 --> 01:17:31.368
Yeah.

01:17:33.583 --> 01:17:33.743
Yeah,

01:17:33.764 --> 01:17:36.645
the comments kind of drifted sideways

01:17:36.685 --> 01:17:37.766
there in the Masters.

01:17:37.987 --> 01:17:40.328
And that wasn't what the spin was bringing

01:17:40.408 --> 01:17:40.568
up.

01:17:40.627 --> 01:17:43.229
It was literally that it's based off a

01:17:43.350 --> 01:17:45.591
lower registration than what we're

01:17:45.631 --> 01:17:46.311
anticipating,

01:17:46.332 --> 01:17:48.273
which means not only our money would be

01:17:48.332 --> 01:17:50.234
lower, but the individual's money,

01:17:50.333 --> 01:17:51.095
the team's or whatever.

01:17:51.755 --> 01:17:53.355
It's just calculating differently.

01:17:55.377 --> 01:17:55.516
Well,

01:17:55.596 --> 01:17:57.759
and it also happened with the individual

01:17:58.738 --> 01:18:01.180
athletes in the elite division.

01:18:02.457 --> 01:18:04.318
They were based on two forty two as

01:18:04.377 --> 01:18:04.658
well.

01:18:04.719 --> 01:18:07.418
So their paychecks were lower than they

01:18:07.559 --> 01:18:10.079
anticipated them to be.

01:18:10.239 --> 01:18:13.079
I've actually seen record where if you

01:18:13.140 --> 01:18:15.301
count all the people that registered for

01:18:15.341 --> 01:18:17.841
the open up until the open was over,

01:18:18.301 --> 01:18:20.622
it's even greater than the two fifty four.

01:18:22.082 --> 01:18:24.082
But that number was never announced.

01:18:24.603 --> 01:18:26.622
CrossFit announced a number when the open

01:18:26.662 --> 01:18:27.122
started.

01:18:27.243 --> 01:18:30.323
Twenty five point one or twenty point one.

01:18:32.662 --> 01:18:33.981
And I've seen that there were actually

01:18:34.181 --> 01:18:37.682
more people that signed up after that.

01:18:38.564 --> 01:18:40.484
And to sign up means you have to

01:18:40.524 --> 01:18:44.185
pay the twenty dollars.

01:18:44.225 --> 01:18:46.725
So there's at least twelve thousand

01:18:47.166 --> 01:18:48.485
registrations missing,

01:18:48.985 --> 01:18:51.487
possibly way more than that.

01:18:54.949 --> 01:18:56.069
So I emailed CrossFit about it.

01:18:57.011 --> 01:18:59.252
And I got an email back saying that

01:19:00.594 --> 01:19:02.876
from one of the support people that they

01:19:02.895 --> 01:19:04.617
were going to go back and look at

01:19:04.657 --> 01:19:05.698
it and come back to me with an

01:19:05.757 --> 01:19:07.859
answer.

01:19:07.918 --> 01:19:09.060
I mean, if you're going to announce...

01:19:09.079 --> 01:19:11.122
So they were going to look into it.

01:19:12.122 --> 01:19:12.603
Yeah.

01:19:12.662 --> 01:19:13.583
I think if you're going to announce that

01:19:13.623 --> 01:19:15.425
two hundred fifty two thousand people

01:19:15.465 --> 01:19:16.326
signed up for the open,

01:19:16.345 --> 01:19:19.007
you should probably use that number.

01:19:19.028 --> 01:19:19.627
Moving forward.

01:19:20.349 --> 01:19:23.150
And that's probably on the low side of

01:19:26.023 --> 01:19:28.244
the actual breakdown per division is

01:19:28.364 --> 01:19:31.226
identical to what they did last year um

01:19:31.266 --> 01:19:33.748
like of the ten percent eight point five

01:19:33.788 --> 01:19:35.449
went to the winner three point five the

01:19:35.489 --> 01:19:38.152
second then it was two percent to the

01:19:38.212 --> 01:19:40.993
third and then each division is the same

01:19:41.033 --> 01:19:44.697
breakdown it's just the total is off i

01:19:44.737 --> 01:19:47.118
think from what signed up in the open

01:19:48.238 --> 01:19:51.381
but i think like from from my position

01:19:51.421 --> 01:19:52.823
i think it's a difference of maybe

01:19:53.908 --> 01:19:56.989
fifteen hundred dollars or something like

01:19:57.010 --> 01:19:58.251
that but someone like Sprite could be a

01:19:58.270 --> 01:20:01.592
difference of almost fifteen thousand that

01:20:01.653 --> 01:20:03.494
he would be lower and then when you

01:20:03.534 --> 01:20:06.856
start adding all of the tax or the

01:20:06.896 --> 01:20:10.219
state tax stuff like that will you know

01:20:10.319 --> 01:20:12.780
it ends up mattering so you just want

01:20:12.801 --> 01:20:16.622
it to be accurate that's all well just

01:20:16.663 --> 01:20:18.765
an explanation not just blindly throw it

01:20:18.824 --> 01:20:21.046
out there one it was supposed to be

01:20:21.087 --> 01:20:22.868
announced prior to the game starting

01:20:24.301 --> 01:20:27.483
It came out two weeks after and it's

01:20:27.542 --> 01:20:27.983
not right.

01:20:28.042 --> 01:20:29.503
It's not correct.

01:20:29.845 --> 01:20:31.805
According to the announcement you made

01:20:32.466 --> 01:20:33.027
about the open.

01:20:33.046 --> 01:20:33.747
Right.

01:20:34.967 --> 01:20:36.809
And yet people complain about the WFP and

01:20:36.828 --> 01:20:40.872
the athletes making more money.

01:20:40.931 --> 01:20:42.453
At least,

01:20:42.472 --> 01:20:43.634
you know what you're making there.

01:20:45.074 --> 01:20:46.314
I know there was a lot of complaints

01:20:46.355 --> 01:20:49.377
in there about like.

01:20:49.398 --> 01:20:50.457
Thirty five, thirty nine,

01:20:50.497 --> 01:20:53.100
making more and then drop off stuff like.

01:20:54.171 --> 01:20:55.313
But that's not the story.

01:20:55.653 --> 01:20:56.252
No, I know.

01:20:56.554 --> 01:20:57.953
But I feel like if you're like,

01:20:59.095 --> 01:21:01.657
if you're trying to allocate money,

01:21:01.716 --> 01:21:04.338
I feel like the smartest thing to do

01:21:04.439 --> 01:21:05.198
is, well, you know,

01:21:05.259 --> 01:21:08.900
if a thousand seventy plus people sign up,

01:21:09.502 --> 01:21:11.243
that's their pool of

01:21:12.594 --> 01:21:14.775
money and and how many thirty five to

01:21:14.796 --> 01:21:16.537
thirty nine sign up and how many forty

01:21:16.556 --> 01:21:18.557
to forty like honestly it should probably

01:21:18.578 --> 01:21:21.020
like it's increasing yeah like every age

01:21:21.039 --> 01:21:24.002
group is just yeah and individuals

01:21:24.042 --> 01:21:25.643
eighteen to thirty four should not get

01:21:27.564 --> 01:21:29.166
they need they need more participation if

01:21:29.185 --> 01:21:33.309
they want more money uh tessa nobody's

01:21:33.328 --> 01:21:34.229
complaining right now anymore

01:21:40.400 --> 01:21:42.060
Because like there's a division of like

01:21:42.140 --> 01:21:43.261
the forty to like, I don't know,

01:21:43.282 --> 01:21:44.101
to fifty four.

01:21:44.162 --> 01:21:46.222
Maybe you have the same as what you're

01:21:46.243 --> 01:21:46.622
saying.

01:21:46.863 --> 01:21:48.203
Basically, each age group,

01:21:48.283 --> 01:21:50.323
it should slowly start to go down as

01:21:50.384 --> 01:21:52.304
the number of participants in that age

01:21:52.344 --> 01:21:53.423
group is also lower.

01:21:53.564 --> 01:21:54.265
Yeah,

01:21:54.284 --> 01:21:56.784
that's how I think it should be allocated.

01:21:57.225 --> 01:21:57.704
But yes,

01:21:57.805 --> 01:22:01.426
I think I think that makes sense.

01:22:01.466 --> 01:22:02.747
The thing that I.

01:22:05.372 --> 01:22:06.895
The other numbers I was finding when I

01:22:06.914 --> 01:22:09.436
was looking for the open numbers is that

01:22:09.697 --> 01:22:12.039
sixty one percent of the open

01:22:12.079 --> 01:22:15.962
registrations were masters athletes.

01:22:15.983 --> 01:22:17.225
Yes, that's my point.

01:22:17.305 --> 01:22:18.525
Sixty one percent.

01:22:19.426 --> 01:22:21.368
So when you're nickel and diming the

01:22:21.429 --> 01:22:23.490
people that are paying all the money,

01:22:24.311 --> 01:22:26.573
that's a really, really freaking bad look.

01:22:32.610 --> 01:22:34.012
And then the team's registration,

01:22:34.353 --> 01:22:40.720
they don't get a dime.

01:22:40.760 --> 01:22:41.340
You know what?

01:22:43.863 --> 01:22:44.783
I remember the team,

01:22:44.844 --> 01:22:45.824
they don't get a dime,

01:22:45.925 --> 01:22:47.587
and then they also don't get drug tested.

01:22:47.686 --> 01:22:49.288
They don't get drug tested,

01:22:49.328 --> 01:22:50.750
so they maybe shouldn't get paid.

01:22:51.190 --> 01:22:54.474
But I think it's only, what, ATP?

01:22:55.430 --> 01:22:57.612
what they do, twenty and twenty of each,

01:22:58.131 --> 01:22:59.773
so eighty people, eighty athletes,

01:23:00.613 --> 01:23:03.256
you're better off asking the sponsor,

01:23:03.336 --> 01:23:03.515
I mean,

01:23:04.976 --> 01:23:07.318
I wouldn't like it as a master, but,

01:23:07.337 --> 01:23:07.519
like,

01:23:07.698 --> 01:23:09.340
you're better off giving them the full

01:23:09.380 --> 01:23:10.841
kit.

01:23:10.940 --> 01:23:13.722
That was the big pull for teams.

01:23:13.762 --> 01:23:16.043
You know, three grand, four grand of gear.

01:23:16.444 --> 01:23:19.466
Like, all that, like, getting the bag,

01:23:19.487 --> 01:23:21.028
the shoes, like,

01:23:21.148 --> 01:23:23.729
it's twenty of them in each age bracket,

01:23:23.829 --> 01:23:24.010
like,

01:23:25.037 --> 01:23:27.179
supply them and you don't you don't have

01:23:27.198 --> 01:23:28.760
to pay them but like it was always

01:23:28.800 --> 01:23:30.461
about the kit for so many people i

01:23:30.501 --> 01:23:31.481
know that was the whole reason i was

01:23:31.521 --> 01:23:34.063
going like i was never like that's what's

01:23:34.122 --> 01:23:35.444
frustrating about this whole thing and

01:23:35.463 --> 01:23:37.326
then to yes nickel and dime us and

01:23:37.365 --> 01:23:42.909
not like well not only shortchange you

01:23:42.930 --> 01:23:45.091
guys on the kit now but then then

01:23:45.131 --> 01:23:47.512
claim exclusivity when other sponsors want

01:23:47.533 --> 01:23:50.895
to give you stuff that's the the part

01:23:50.994 --> 01:23:51.815
of the masters

01:23:54.011 --> 01:23:56.091
Because you're connected to the CrossFit

01:23:56.112 --> 01:24:00.814
Games.

01:24:00.835 --> 01:24:00.954
Well,

01:24:01.335 --> 01:24:04.277
the price to register keeps going up,

01:24:04.896 --> 01:24:06.557
but the things that we're getting keep

01:24:06.597 --> 01:24:07.278
going down.

01:24:07.438 --> 01:24:08.198
And before, like,

01:24:08.238 --> 01:24:09.920
let's say we paid two fifty or four

01:24:09.939 --> 01:24:12.020
hundred, whatever, to go to the games.

01:24:12.320 --> 01:24:14.862
You took home so much more than what

01:24:14.903 --> 01:24:15.643
you paid for.

01:24:15.762 --> 01:24:16.743
So it was kind of cool.

01:24:17.783 --> 01:24:19.164
Now you're not.

01:24:20.324 --> 01:24:20.685
you know,

01:24:20.704 --> 01:24:22.445
you're not getting even close to that.

01:24:22.985 --> 01:24:24.466
And then the amount of events that we're

01:24:24.506 --> 01:24:26.186
actually doing are decreasing as well.

01:24:27.146 --> 01:24:29.587
So like, it's, yeah, but like,

01:24:29.807 --> 01:24:30.988
I remember when I first made the games,

01:24:31.047 --> 01:24:31.908
it was all about the kit,

01:24:32.368 --> 01:24:33.269
and they've had cuts.

01:24:33.788 --> 01:24:34.868
And it was like, make the cut.

01:24:34.890 --> 01:24:36.250
So you can get an extra shirt, like,

01:24:38.010 --> 01:24:38.270
you know,

01:24:39.091 --> 01:24:40.030
I just wanted to get the kit,

01:24:40.911 --> 01:24:42.051
want to get a sign of my name

01:24:42.112 --> 01:24:43.492
on it like that, you know,

01:24:43.551 --> 01:24:44.532
and for the teenagers, like,

01:24:45.472 --> 01:24:47.252
that would be super, like,

01:24:47.412 --> 01:24:49.173
cool for them to have like a full

01:24:49.194 --> 01:24:49.434
kit.

01:24:52.663 --> 01:24:54.865
Wonder how long this CFO search will last.

01:24:56.327 --> 01:24:56.527
Well,

01:24:56.546 --> 01:24:58.809
apparently it's way more needed than we

01:24:58.849 --> 01:25:04.873
thought.

01:25:04.914 --> 01:25:06.136
Sounds like my grocery bill.

01:25:06.195 --> 01:25:07.115
That is correct.

01:25:07.877 --> 01:25:10.399
Your grocery bill keeps going up and the

01:25:10.418 --> 01:25:11.579
amount of food you get to bring home

01:25:11.640 --> 01:25:12.461
is less and less.

01:25:15.944 --> 01:25:17.484
And Jay Birch, your math is off.

01:25:17.564 --> 01:25:19.146
It's only twenty dollars to register for

01:25:19.167 --> 01:25:19.447
the open.

01:25:22.823 --> 01:25:23.984
What did he say it was?

01:25:24.005 --> 01:25:30.149
Thirty.

01:25:30.269 --> 01:25:33.992
I paid seven dollars for two onions today.

01:25:34.112 --> 01:25:35.412
I went to a farmer's market and paid

01:25:35.453 --> 01:25:36.453
way less than that, dude.

01:25:44.115 --> 01:25:44.896
Anyway, so all that's happened.

01:25:44.917 --> 01:25:45.697
The queue has been announced that it is

01:25:45.716 --> 01:25:46.957
happening August, August, August, August,

01:25:46.978 --> 01:25:47.698
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:47.717 --> 01:25:48.538
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:48.578 --> 01:25:49.539
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:49.560 --> 01:25:50.600
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:50.619 --> 01:25:51.320
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:51.341 --> 01:25:52.981
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:53.002 --> 01:25:54.082
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:54.101 --> 01:25:55.023
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:55.042 --> 01:25:56.123
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:56.144 --> 01:25:57.163
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:57.184 --> 01:25:57.864
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:57.885 --> 01:25:58.784
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:58.805 --> 01:25:59.666
August, August, August, August, August,

01:25:59.706 --> 01:26:00.846
August, August, August, August, August,

01:26:00.867 --> 01:26:03.068
August, August, August, August, August,

01:26:03.207 --> 01:26:04.048
August, August, August, August, August,

01:26:04.069 --> 01:26:04.828
August, August, August, August, August,

01:26:04.849 --> 01:26:05.770
August, August, August, August, August,

01:26:05.789 --> 01:26:06.791
August, August, August, August, August,

01:26:06.810 --> 01:26:07.390
August, August, August, August,

01:26:07.411 --> 01:26:07.530
August

01:26:07.931 --> 01:26:09.213
Did you say it's August twenty-first

01:26:09.234 --> 01:26:09.895
through the twenty-third?

01:26:10.494 --> 01:26:11.136
Yep.

01:26:11.155 --> 01:26:12.618
So it's during WFP?

01:26:13.538 --> 01:26:14.940
No, WFP's the next weekend.

01:26:14.961 --> 01:26:15.902
Oh, yeah, yeah.

01:26:17.684 --> 01:26:18.244
You still going?

01:26:18.966 --> 01:26:22.210
Yeah.

01:26:22.250 --> 01:26:22.430
Okay.

01:26:22.449 --> 01:26:23.391
I don't know why I was thinking, yeah,

01:26:23.431 --> 01:26:24.092
that's the twenty-eighth.

01:26:24.273 --> 01:26:25.113
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:26:25.134 --> 01:26:25.975
It's on my calendar.

01:26:28.614 --> 01:26:30.136
But that's a, that's a tough,

01:26:30.775 --> 01:26:34.377
because the rogue qualifier is the hardest

01:26:34.418 --> 01:26:37.600
qualifier there is with the hardest

01:26:37.619 --> 01:26:38.180
standards.

01:26:38.440 --> 01:26:38.680
Yeah.

01:26:38.940 --> 01:26:40.301
You got to weigh everything in.

01:26:41.262 --> 01:26:43.184
It's forty minutes of videoing before you

01:26:43.203 --> 01:26:44.444
can even start the workout.

01:26:45.265 --> 01:26:47.445
I mean, that's how WFP is lesson learned.

01:26:48.067 --> 01:26:48.886
And then a week later,

01:26:48.907 --> 01:26:50.307
you've got to compete at WFP.

01:26:51.229 --> 01:26:53.310
That that's a tough back to back.

01:26:59.565 --> 01:27:05.287
um so anyway it's happening it always gets

01:27:05.307 --> 01:27:08.627
some big names um i guess that rogue

01:27:08.667 --> 01:27:10.988
has sent out invitations to people they're

01:27:11.009 --> 01:27:12.529
not allowed to say if they got it

01:27:12.548 --> 01:27:16.229
or not um angelo let it leak today

01:27:16.270 --> 01:27:19.631
that page got hers okay uh so we

01:27:19.650 --> 01:27:23.431
know one i guess i'm betting you can

01:27:23.471 --> 01:27:25.573
assume that james and amy got theirs

01:27:28.962 --> 01:27:30.622
But we don't know because just because you

01:27:30.643 --> 01:27:31.764
get it doesn't mean you accept it.

01:27:33.125 --> 01:27:34.966
The real question is how many spots for

01:27:35.006 --> 01:27:35.967
the online qualifier?

01:27:36.488 --> 01:27:36.648
Right.

01:27:36.667 --> 01:27:38.010
That's the question because that hasn't

01:27:38.029 --> 01:27:40.631
been consistent year to year and it's

01:27:40.692 --> 01:27:41.131
changed.

01:27:41.292 --> 01:27:43.453
So that's what I'm curious about.

01:27:43.673 --> 01:27:45.456
How many spots are going to allow for

01:27:45.475 --> 01:27:45.876
the online?

01:27:48.658 --> 01:27:50.300
After Scotland, where's the next location?

01:27:50.760 --> 01:27:53.042
Columbus, Ohio.

01:27:53.122 --> 01:27:53.622
One can hope.

01:27:54.172 --> 01:27:56.033
i think so because they're building right

01:27:56.073 --> 01:28:00.435
now um more like didn't they take over

01:28:00.475 --> 01:28:04.235
like even more land there so i bet

01:28:04.256 --> 01:28:06.256
you when that's done they're coming back

01:28:06.617 --> 01:28:08.697
to columbus that's where the games needs

01:28:08.737 --> 01:28:12.738
to go they um yeah so the the

01:28:13.137 --> 01:28:15.838
warehouse facility the whole bit was a

01:28:15.918 --> 01:28:18.380
city block and i think now it is

01:28:18.439 --> 01:28:18.600
too

01:28:22.600 --> 01:28:24.001
It is so massive.

01:28:25.162 --> 01:28:28.664
Even when they first built on that

01:28:28.704 --> 01:28:31.327
location, they had Rogue,

01:28:31.927 --> 01:28:32.729
the Invitational,

01:28:32.809 --> 01:28:34.390
in the front yard of that building.

01:28:34.829 --> 01:28:38.233
That front yard is gone.

01:28:38.292 --> 01:28:40.335
Where they held Rogue the first year is

01:28:40.795 --> 01:28:41.876
now gone.

01:28:45.259 --> 01:28:47.341
But they had five buildings in Columbus,

01:28:47.381 --> 01:28:49.101
and they're consolidating it all to the

01:28:49.221 --> 01:28:49.823
one location.

01:28:51.380 --> 01:28:53.943
And they have built enough building to do

01:28:53.983 --> 01:28:57.046
that.

01:28:57.106 --> 01:28:59.210
It is so big.

01:28:59.670 --> 01:29:02.734
It's going to touch the convention center.

01:29:08.496 --> 01:29:08.895
Really?

01:29:09.636 --> 01:29:10.277
I'm just kidding.

01:29:10.617 --> 01:29:12.157
It just feels that way.

01:29:12.837 --> 01:29:14.537
Because they're both on Fifth Avenue,

01:29:14.957 --> 01:29:16.439
the convention center, and Rogue.

01:29:17.019 --> 01:29:18.939
And Rogue is just moving closer and closer

01:29:19.000 --> 01:29:22.060
to touch butt up with the convention

01:29:22.100 --> 01:29:28.722
center.

01:29:29.323 --> 01:29:31.884
So the parking lot got changed to

01:29:31.923 --> 01:29:32.484
building,

01:29:32.904 --> 01:29:34.685
and then the parking lot got moved to

01:29:34.725 --> 01:29:36.786
where they held the Rogue Invitational.

01:29:39.608 --> 01:29:41.850
So it was like building over the parking

01:29:41.890 --> 01:29:42.150
lot,

01:29:42.251 --> 01:29:45.413
then parking lot got moved out closer to

01:29:45.453 --> 01:29:45.873
the street.

01:29:50.078 --> 01:29:51.279
I used to work on Fifth Avenue.

01:29:51.479 --> 01:29:53.162
I was only ten minutes from Rogue

01:29:53.181 --> 01:29:53.742
headquarters.

01:29:54.603 --> 01:29:58.487
It was an easy lunch hour stop by.

01:29:58.527 --> 01:29:59.948
Now I work from home and it's like

01:29:59.967 --> 01:30:00.488
a half an hour.

01:30:05.221 --> 01:30:07.622
But I love that first Rogue.

01:30:07.662 --> 01:30:09.423
That might have been my favorite in-person

01:30:09.444 --> 01:30:12.685
competition of all time.

01:30:12.706 --> 01:30:13.966
Was that the one that they had the

01:30:14.046 --> 01:30:15.047
tug-of-war with the teams?

01:30:15.648 --> 01:30:16.068
They did.

01:30:17.529 --> 01:30:18.670
And the shooting.

01:30:18.729 --> 01:30:20.230
And the rifle shoot.

01:30:21.331 --> 01:30:22.051
Yeah, with the skiers.

01:30:22.914 --> 01:30:25.055
But it was the stuff indoors where they,

01:30:25.296 --> 01:30:26.336
in the factory,

01:30:26.676 --> 01:30:30.118
they built stands and a rig and the

01:30:30.158 --> 01:30:30.578
whole bit.

01:30:30.818 --> 01:30:31.838
It was so cool.

01:30:31.939 --> 01:30:32.719
And then,

01:30:33.760 --> 01:30:37.740
seventeen point two open announcement was

01:30:37.780 --> 01:30:38.402
held there too.

01:30:39.202 --> 01:30:40.261
And I was there for that.

01:30:41.323 --> 01:30:44.043
And they built inside the factory again,

01:30:44.524 --> 01:30:48.966
which was so cool.

01:30:48.985 --> 01:30:50.207
Wouldn't that be a cool show?

01:30:52.238 --> 01:30:56.560
Lunch with the Clydesdale at Rogue HQ.

01:30:57.180 --> 01:30:57.539
Right now,

01:30:57.560 --> 01:30:58.640
I just have to be out in the

01:30:58.680 --> 01:31:01.740
parking lot with my iPad.

01:31:01.761 --> 01:31:03.582
Dear Bill and Katie, please let me in.

01:31:11.663 --> 01:31:13.625
Andrew, stop arguing with me.

01:31:14.125 --> 01:31:16.125
The one side of it's on High Street.

01:31:16.185 --> 01:31:18.786
The north side of it is on Fifth

01:31:18.845 --> 01:31:19.145
Avenue.

01:31:26.391 --> 01:31:31.595
It's an L.

01:31:33.416 --> 01:31:35.016
Larry and Shelly are at every major

01:31:35.037 --> 01:31:35.716
competition.

01:31:36.257 --> 01:31:37.118
They were there too.

01:31:37.177 --> 01:31:37.677
Love that one.

01:31:37.717 --> 01:31:39.219
I think that's where we first saw Colton

01:31:39.259 --> 01:31:42.841
Mertens compete.

01:31:42.881 --> 01:31:44.242
The first time I saw Colton was at

01:31:44.322 --> 01:31:44.662
Mayhem.

01:31:44.681 --> 01:31:48.243
At twenty one.

01:31:48.583 --> 01:31:49.805
Yeah.

01:31:50.564 --> 01:31:51.786
When I saw Lex complete.

01:31:54.905 --> 01:31:55.967
Yeah, she was there that year.

01:31:56.007 --> 01:31:56.507
She did well.

01:32:01.234 --> 01:32:05.240
But anyway, all right.

01:32:05.261 --> 01:32:05.981
With that, guys,

01:32:06.944 --> 01:32:07.845
we're going to call it a night.

01:32:08.886 --> 01:32:09.887
