We cover the sport of CrossFit from all angles. We talk with athletes, coaches and celebrities that compete and surround in the sport of CrossFit at all levels. We also bring you Breaking News, Human Interest Stories and report on the Methodology of CrossFit. We also use the methodology to make ourselves the fittest we can be.
According to the National Weather Service,
we're coming in like a tornado today.
I love the chase and the hunt and
I set the pace when I'm running.
I always take what I want and I
always give it one hundred.
Don't need a bank, no I'm funded.
Play the game like it's nothing.
I'm always thankful for something.
Don't take for granted, stay humble.
Now wake up!
It's time to look at the enemy.
Look in the mirror if he is no
friend to me.
It's not working out,
maybe it's the chemistry.
It's time to break up.
it's lunch time what is going on everybody
welcome to lunch with the clydesdale we
are back and better than ever it is
A wild weather Wednesday here in Columbus,
Ohio.
Woke up to thunderstorms.
Then got a wind advisory until seven p.m.
tonight.
And then got a tornado watch until noon
today, which we got through.
But all of this,
I was in meetings up until the show.
Outside my house,
like the trees are beating on the outside
of my house.
it was crazy man my wife actually like
screamed at one point uh because it got
a little hairy but uh so yeah crazy
crazy crazy but hopefully tornado watch is
done hopefully we are in the clear for
the rest of the evening um but yeah
crazy crazy stuff and then i'm trying to
catch up with all the crossfit news in
like five minutes before the show goes
live
And holy crap, did a lot happen.
Yeah, I would agree to that.
So just what I saw in the last
little bit, let's hit a couple of these.
Okay.
Let's start here.
I saw this.
Oh, yeah.
Jason Hopper wants to compete at
Wadapalooza,
and he's offering three grand for someone
to drop out.
I mean, he's committed.
We've never seen anything like that
before.
No.
And then you saw Hiller in the comments
offering five grand.
I did not see that.
Oh, there it is.
I'm offering five.
There we go.
That's wild, dude.
I mean, hey, he wants to go.
Jenny comments there are about ten on the
leaderboard that should take that offer.
CrossFit, just so you know,
if you didn't see the emblem,
this is from the barbell spin.
Because I don't...
This CrossFit news network,
I still haven't figured out.
I'm assuming it's a competitor to the
spin.
Which is bananas because that's where
Sylvain normally gets his news from
anyway.
But the CrossFit Network has created their
own news website and own news channel on
Instagram.
I like the layout of the website.
I'm not going to lie.
I think it's really fresh.
I think it looks really good.
It's sectioned out into gossip, into news.
They even have the top streaming podcast,
top ten streaming podcast for the last
month.
It's got a lot of new and updated
kind of stuff in it.
I found it was pretty easy to read,
pretty easy to get through.
I don't know what any of the sources
are.
I don't know who's putting it together.
um i meant to reach out to jenny
and see if she was behind some of
it uh maybe i'll do that later today
but i've just been so busy with work
this week that i haven't had time to
to do that across that wants to know
is there a schmear tab no this is
where you get the schmear the schmear is
all right here's live baby yeah we do
live we only only schmear live and here
You can't get that just anywhere.
Chad Anufi wants to know if this means
that Jason Hopper knows what twenty six
point three is and is feeling extra
confident.
I think he knows what all the other
workouts are.
And.
Maybe he thinks he wants to be James.
Well,
he's probably looking at the leaderboard
and.
And thinking I would have a pretty good
chance of winning this thing or at least
being on the podium if I go.
And I probably should have did the
qualifiers and I did not.
And I got three grand to burn.
And maybe it's not even three grand to
burn.
Maybe it's like I'm willing to invest
three to get ten.
Sure.
I think is the way he's looking at
it.
Jason knows he's already in Miami has
flown and has a place to stay and
probably gets a live appearance fee from
sponsors to probably gets all of that.
And they're doing team, right?
It's him and Madaris and Dallin.
I think.
Yeah.
So you're already there.
So I want to give up their spot.
I mean, if you,
if you qualified an elite and you know
that you're going to be towards the bottom
of the leaderboard,
And you have any sort of little,
maybe my knees not feeling quite as good
as it normally was or my shoulders.
And I could pay off my hotel bill
and hang out in Miami for the weekend.
I was about to say,
and I slept funny last night and Miami
nightlife sure looks nice.
And I could pay this for this whole
trip and still be here and still be
able to like go walk around.
And yeah, why not?
So that came out.
Then we had this pop-up.
Oh, yeah.
I was pretty excited about that.
The Mayhem Classic will be live-streamed.
I have not had an opportunity to watch
it.
I don't know who's streaming it.
I didn't see who was streaming it.
I did see Rich's comment there that he
said,
we lost a lot of money last year
and we're trying to lose a little bit
less this year.
Whatever that means.
CrossFat makes a good point.
I don't need to show my feet on
the internet for another month.
Yeah.
Although I hear that's very lucrative.
Yeah, I hear.
My daughter jokes with us almost daily
that she is selling her feet on the
internet.
And I'm almost wondering, is she joking?
Right.
Did she make any large purchases here
recently without consulting you?
Yeah.
Yeah,
do you think I ought to buy this
car?
I hear, okay, Corey.
Believe me,
if somebody would pay me to send them
pictures of my feet and my horrible,
horrible toenails,
I would be a wealthy man because I
have no problem doing that whatsoever.
Yeah.
Listen,
you got to make the money how you
can.
I'm saying.
Inflation's going up.
We're trying to figure things out these
days.
Everything's expensive.
Whatever pays the...
I'm going off on a rail here,
but I got my gas bill today.
My usage charge was half of what my
delivery charge was.
That makes no sense whatsoever.
Because like two months ago,
our gas bill shot way up.
Yeah,
I remember seeing our house fairly cool.
So we don't use like a ton of
gas in the winter.
And so our gas bill is usually around
a hundred.
And last month it was one eighty.
Now, yes, it got cold,
but that was like a big jump.
And so I got the new bill for
today and I just wanted to see what
the hell's going on.
And here the delivery charges have
skyrocketed,
and you're not using any more gas.
Like, it's so stupid, man.
I mean,
I feel like it's just delivered via pipe
to your house.
It's not like they're rolling up with a
truck and then, all right.
And they didn't put a new pipe in.
It's the same old pipe they've been using
for twenty-whatever years.
If not longer than that.
That's insane, dude.
Anyway.
There's that.
So Mayhem Classic will be live streamed.
They have a great lineup.
That's awesome.
So good to hear.
Whether they're doing it in-house or
bringing somebody in,
I think it'll be a great, great feed.
So there is that.
The other things that have come out this
morning are, let me share this thing.
We've all been waiting for it.
Oh,
I saw it on my way in this
morning.
It's this one.
Okay.
The Dave Castro clue.
So I think what I see,
there's a production company on TV.
that shows like an aerial shot of these
houses and it kind of like goes to
me that's what it looks like blown up
yeah it looks like a neighborhood right
and but there's a production company on tv
that uses of like a shot of this
but it's a google map it or not
a google map but a google earth maybe
that's what it's a google earth of a
neighborhood
Let me know if it's a compound.
Denise wants to know if it's a map.
I don't think it's a map.
I think it's a Google Earth.
It looks a lot like it.
So in my wife's Tesla,
you can look at the map,
like where you're driving or whatnot,
and you can switch from different views.
And it looks a lot like if you
switch to the satellite photo or whatnot.
It looks a lot like that.
uh zach tv says it's iran so twenty
six three is gonna be explosive on fire
mostly full of sand i don't understand
what then what you're getting at um a
chipper no we already had a chipper i
had an open up and down chipper a
milk mile jesus christ mark
Yeah,
there is an X in the top left.
Oh, there is.
I just saw that.
But what is that?
If it's Iran,
women's weights won't be equal.
Does that mean we're all good to fly
to Australia and try to become citizens
because we don't want to go home?
Is that part of it?
This means Denise would think something
inverted.
I love the guesses like,
but Craig Pasley ascending and descending
deadlifts and burpee box jumps.
I'm not doing box.
You're doing another box jump.
Nope.
I ain't gonna see another box.
So maybe quarterfinals or semis ain't
gonna happen.
Um, I dunno,
don't see a lot of funny guesses this
time.
Well, no,
because people think they have it figured
out.
They're like, we're just doing it again.
Burpees and, uh, deadlifts.
Like I saw that guess a lot,
a lot, a lot.
And in two different places I saw this
morning or Pete reporting that supposedly
it got it it's leaked and it's, uh,
Fifteen point one.
I think it was again,
which is like total bar Various barbell
stuff and then a max clean and jerk
afterwards and then people are and then
people on that same thread are saying
well,
uh Water polo already has a one rep
max you're not gonna do that twice and
I don't think dave gives a shit I'm,
sorry
CrossFit says fifteen one and one a yeah
fifteen one a man I my grip was
so shot yeah trying to just pick up
the barbell I imagine I went for like
a two twenty five and the bar flew
out of my hands right at my judge
fun yeah that vivid memory of that I
don't know why it sticks in my head
but crazy
Trent Olive with round one and two being
power cleans and burpees.
Round three and four squat cleans and
burpees.
Round five and six clean and jerks and
burpees.
I would love that.
I'd be one hundred percent down for that.
Burpees in a barbell.
Sign me up.
So, yeah.
So anyway, that came out today.
So we have that.
Um,
and then the last thing is we've been
talking about Xenon a lot.
Yep.
Um,
they are asking for volunteers and judges.
Looks like a pretty good deal.
They are training their judges.
Oh, um, okay.
And, um,
Judges are the backbone of any good
competition,
driving the standards and virtuosity
expected in our sport.
From first-time judges to elite-level
masters of the craft, we provide training,
guidance, and the best view of the action.
Volunteers and judges get access to a wide
range of benefits, including free merch,
food and drink,
discounts and early access to future
tickets, and stipends for senior roles.
Okay.
And so they have a link in their
bio on Instagram.
You can go to that and apply to
be a volunteer and or a judge.
But I thought that was pretty cool.
That is very cool.
Good on them.
Good on them for that.
So good stuff.
One little funny thing I saw here.
I don't know if you, you know,
I've been having trouble with my heart
rate and everything.
So I saw this and as someone,
I came up with a new breathing technique.
Yes, I did see that.
It's fantastic.
Turn the sound up.
that's not actually a camel making that
noise they actually got me after a workout
and just recorded my recorded my sound
because that's more or less what i sound
like uh so yeah yeah that's how i
sounded um when the other day so good
stuff
It's actually a live sound from me.
They just dubbed it over that baby camel.
So I think that's all like the quick
hitting stuff that I saw in the five
minutes coming downstairs.
Right.
I have the wrong notes.
That's fine.
You have the wrong notes.
I have no notes.
We are not the same person.
I never give you notes, man.
Mm-mm.
Do you know what always hits the right
note?
Oh,
Ladies and gentlemen, Scott Switzer,
king of the Segway.
It always hits the right note,
especially when you're in the third week
of the open and you need the best
recovery tool on the market.
Gets you your sleep,
gets your collagen protein,
helps you recover, helps you sleep,
helps you get all the stuff ready for
twenty six point three.
And they're running a deal until Monday.
Monday is the last day you're running out
of time.
Twenty five percent off code Jazzy.
Collagenprotein.com backslash Jazzy.
Yes.
Collagenprotein is definitely a thing in
there because my nails are growing like
crazy as I've been taking it regularly.
And when I was taking collagen protein
regularly, same thing.
Like my nails would grow like it was
going out of style.
They don't usually grow that fast.
Meredith says that camel is her after
she's getting her kids ready for school.
Uh,
Vicky says that's me waking up in the
morning, getting out of bed.
Uh, chat a new fee.
Oh,
your tear tear almost full rupture in my
suspirin.
And a partial in my labrum, uh,
waiting on the doc call.
Come for the segues.
Stay for the pronunciation.
Yeah, I'm king of medical pronunciation.
That's terrible, Chattanooga.
That sucks.
Daniel Arnson,
I ordered mine over a week ago and
still waiting for it.
It's because the deal's so good.
The deal's just that good at Thirdsy.
So many people are taking advantage of the
open deal.
I'm going to be one of them because
I'm about halfway through my second bag of
the lemonade I got at home.
I'm just going to go ahead and order
two more while the deal is going on.
Just take advantage of it.
Why wouldn't you?
Growing nails for the feet pics.
I got to grow them for something.
You got to take advantage of every
opportunity that comes your way.
And listen to Leslie like and subscribe.
I've said this before.
You realize like only forty percent of the
people that listen to the show are
subscribed.
It's insane.
You're here.
Most of you are here every day.
Just hit the subscribe button.
That way,
if we do a special show someday can
pop on.
Yeah, it's right there.
Train all of the camel is the Clydesdale
spirit animal.
Well, of course,
the Clydesdale is the main spirit animal.
But yeah, we'll take the camel too.
Take whatever we can get.
Yeah, no, the lap's not wrong.
Comps ain't free, folks.
Yep.
Registration freeze, plane tickets,
Airbnbs, food.
I don't know if y'all know this or
not,
but just because I weigh a hundred eighty
five pounds does not mean I don't eat.
I eat a lot.
I'm hungry right now,
as a matter of fact.
Frida says that was me.
The camera was her after hauling twenty
kilograms of water,
three stories due to water outage.
I think the water wasn't outraged.
I think it was a water outage.
I mean, hey, bro,
you don't know what they do over there.
Maybe the water was outraged.
This morning was that had an outrage to
it.
So anyway, so there's that.
What a palooza kicks off tomorrow.
That's what I hear.
So we,
I don't know if you saw the lineup.
I did not yet.
I meant to look at it yesterday and
I forgot.
I told you we were going to talk
about this.
I know.
That's why I meant to look at it
yesterday.
The road to hell is full of intentions.
It is.
It's paved with them.
Paved with them.
See if I can find the lineup.
Is this it?
Let's start with the most obvious one.
Here we go.
James.
So,
I will blow this up a little bit.
This is both men and the women.
Matilda Gorns, Emma Tall.
More team people.
Emily Turner, Emily Rolfe, Lucy Campbell,
Astrid Tin, Hannah Black, Abby Domitz,
Lydia Fish, Ariel Loewen, Elisa Fuliano,
Janie Chevery.
Who's your pick to win on the women's
side?
Oh, man.
Not Martina.
Lucy.
That's easy.
Yeah,
everybody picked Lucy on the Sunday show.
I went with Lisa Fuliano just to be
different.
Yeah, but you got to pick a winner,
dog,
and second at the games and push Tia
a little bit.
I'm going with Lucy.
Um, on the men's side,
I think it's even less star studded.
You have James Sprague is the headliner.
And then you have like Nick Matthew,
Austin Hatfield, Yona Koski, Pat Vellner,
Ty Jenkins, Max Krieg with Bill.
Uh, uh,
Sure.
Yeah,
whoever the rest of those people are.
Alex Majors was, when I was at CrossFit,
Polaris was my coach.
My new coach.
He trains with Rudy Berger.
I know me some Rudy.
Who are these people?
Yeah, some say it, man.
I think James is the obvious choice to
win unless Hopper gets someone to drop.
if hopper can pay three thousand dollars
to i don't know let's say nico whatever
that dude's last name is sure that guy
then it's a two-man race at that point
between him and and the champ but other
than that and and look i love max
and i love uh bill leahy those are
the two the two my boys but uh
I mean, Austin's good,
but if Austin's in Florida,
he's probably going to Disney more than
he's going to compete at freaking...
CrossFit makes a great point.
It's easier to pick who Hopper's replacing
than it is to pick the winner.
Yeah.
My money's on Bernardo Costa taking three
thousand dollars from Hopper.
I'm going with Philip Lundqvist.
Philip Lundqvist.
Lundqvist.
Whoever that guy is.
Kenneth DeLapp says Ty Jenkins.
One, I would never,
ever take Kenneth DeLapp's predictions.
That nobody picks with their heart more
than Kenneth DeLapp.
Absolutely.
You can't even get men's field out of
your mouth before he's yelling Colton.
I'm surprised he's not picking Colton
right now,
even though he's not on the list.
Yeah.
You know what would be hilarious?
If Nick Matthew was like,
I'll take three thousand dollars and you
just swapped it out.
Because like, Nick's a damn fine athlete.
Instead of one of these guys that nobody
knows who they are.
It's not that these guys aren't good
athletes, right?
It's that James is at a different level.
Austin...
a year ago I would have said could
compete, but I don't,
I don't know where he is right now.
He hasn't shown us anything on a floor
that makes me believe he's ready to take
on James.
Correct.
And I don't think Ty is ready yet.
He's on his, he's on the way up.
He could, but I, again,
haven't seen enough consistency to see
that.
Um,
So, yeah, there are good athletes in here,
but James Sprigg is at a different level.
After last year, winning Waterpalooza,
third at the Games, what, third at Rogue,
winning the WFP,
he's just at a different level.
Yeah.
So there's nine people on there whose name
I immediately recognize, right?
Nick Matthew, Hatfield, Luka.
Ewan Koski, Pat Vellner, Jenkins,
I guess Connor Volz.
I don't know who that is, too.
Max.
So you figure half the field is people,
is names that you know.
James is in shoulders above.
Ninety percent of those people take out
your Patrick Vellner,
who's actually won a couple of times,
but I still don't think that means
anything.
Right.
Yeah, it really doesn't.
I'm interested to see how Pat does.
Absolutely.
He's had the ablation.
He's not going to have the heart flutter
no more.
He's not going to show up in his
performance.
But again, we don't know.
We know James is there to win.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
And so the rest of these dudes,
as much as my heart wants to say
Bill and Max is going to be fighting
for the podium,
I think Bill will be fighting for top
five or top seven because I think he's
there in this group.
He's there to fight for that.
If Bill doesn't get top seven,
there's a problem.
That's what I'm saying.
But beyond that,
it's James and everybody else.
I think the champ is looking at that
list and going,
it's James and everybody else.
If I can get somebody to swap out,
it'll be James and me and everybody else.
CrossFet says, Ablation,
isn't that what we call Tiger Woods?
It didn't start with an A.
It didn't start with an A, CrossFet.
Kenneth says,
Ty qualified out of the syndicate.
That should mean more.
James Prigg wasn't at syndicate.
He just,
Dallin Pepper wasn't at Syndicate.
Jason Hopper wasn't at Syndicate.
These are, it's a different level.
This is a whole different thing right
here.
As Nick Jonas says, levels, levels,
levels.
Get on my elevator.
I told you it was going to be
karaoke with us now.
Always.
Always.
Always.
Um, Frida says Koski can still surprise.
I'll give you that.
Sure.
Are they swimming?
I don't know.
I haven't looked at the, at the workouts.
Yeah.
Cross fat says tie qualifying out of the
syndicate is like Miami of Ohio.
Unbelievably accurate is unbelievably
accurate.
Oh,
Yeah, but I'll give you Koski.
I'll give you Pat Vellner.
Good surprise.
Austin Hatfield.
Good surprise.
Sure.
If they won, I wouldn't be like,
oh my goodness, what the hell happened?
No.
But I would also think that James probably
had a couple of bad events,
which you can't in because this is just
two days.
So you can't really afford to have a
couple of bad events.
You need to have four out of five
good ones.
There are levels to this whole thing,
and there is a level of guys that
can win any competition regardless of the
programming, and James is in that league.
The others are very program dependent.
Agreed?
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
In this field,
the people that can win regardless of
programming are Jason Hopper,
Dallin Pepper, James Sprague,
Ricky Garrard,
A healthy Roman Krennikoff.
A Jake Grouch.
Justin Medeiros.
I'll give you Justin.
I want to see Justin this year.
I feel like he's going to have a
good year.
I want to see it.
Yeah.
Oh, absolutely.
And then your Pat Vellners,
your Yona Koskis are in that next tier.
Their time is coming and going.
I mean, Pat is, what, thirty-four?
Thirty-four.
Thirty-three, thirty-four,
something along those lines.
Like,
he's been at this for quite some time
now.
Takes a toll, man.
Kenneth DeLapp is still hoping for a team
of Mertens, Hatfield,
and Tetlow to show up.
And their team name would be,
we're not tall enough for this ride.
Hundred percent.
Must be this tall to ride.
Colton and Scott are just about the same
height.
Like, almost exactly.
And Scott's shorter than I am.
And that's saying something.
So...
Having said that,
he is about a hundred times fitter than
I am.
So there's also that.
Yeah.
Yeah, Tetla's freaking awesome, man.
Scott's a fantastic dude.
Team down here.
We're down here.
So that's Waterpalooza.
What's going on?
Will be.
I talked about this a little bit on
Sunday night,
but I had to talk about it a
little bit more,
and that is I am completely addicted to
the show Drive to Survive.
I need to check it out.
So I finished up the twenty twenty four
season last night.
All that I have left to catch up
to real time is the twenty five season.
I am going to get a speeding ticket
if I don't finish this soon.
Yeah.
You just clip it apexes and accelerating
out of corners and it's breaking.
I forgot how much fun it was accelerating
out of a corner.
I used to drive like a maniac dude.
And like, but it was calculated.
It wasn't, you know,
just cutting in front of people in traffic
and whatnot.
Like I drove fast to try to get
where I was going.
And it's because I used to be a
huge racing fan, uh, back in the day,
mostly when I was still driving like that.
Now I got a Jeep.
So twice as fast as arrow, uh,
any brick and half as aerodynamic.
Which is good.
I don't need to do that kind of
shit.
If I take the wife's Tesla somewhere and
I get annoyed in traffic,
I need to be by myself.
I need to have the family with me
because I'll scare the shit out of
everybody in that thing because it's
quick.
Sunday,
Julie and I went for a drive and
she's like, I'm going to die.
You'll be fine.
I was like, it's all right.
It's all right.
You'll be fine.
CrossFit says do the cycling and tennis
one next.
Golf one is meh.
So I started with the golf one.
So I've watched all the full swing.
And now I,
then I picked up drive to survive.
And there is,
there is more drama in drive to survive
than a soap opera.
Like guys hate each other.
Guys reckoned each other on purpose.
Like,
Guys don't want to play well with their
teammates.
People get fired mid-season.
It is in complete insanity.
I know if you go... It runs across...
I get clips like that come up on
my Instagram from time to time.
Like the in-car radios from NASCAR guys
and whatnot.
Talking about other people.
And if he does that again,
I'm going to put him in the wall.
That's going out over live...
Over the air radios and whatnot.
I don't want to say talking shit about
him because it's not necessarily that.
It's more like if he does this again...
This is going to happen.
I don't know how this dude is still
out here type stuff.
And like, it gets chippy, man.
But in their defense,
they're running around a track at two
hundred miles an hour.
Like,
it don't take much for somebody to be
like, hey, man, don't do that.
We could all die.
Yeah.
And what I what I respect about Formula
One is don't race in any weather.
Oh, yeah.
anyway put on the rain tires and the
tracks are so long and wide that it
could be raining on one end of the
track and not on the other it's uh
cory has the look of a guy who
goes hook when he jumps down from a
truck every time i step out of my
jeep or into it for that matter i
got pool handles bro gotta get up
I got tiny legs, man.
Hobbit, you know what I'm saying?
Or not Hobbit, excuse me.
Good Lord.
Hobbit, Elf, what's the other one?
Dwarf.
Dangerous over short distances.
Daniel Arnson,
what do we constitute a tall for the
male athlete and short?
And Kenneth Lapp says greater than
five-eighth tall,
less than five-eighth short.
See, I would say like the five,
six to five, ten range is you're probably,
you're mean.
Yeah, pretty normal, normally.
And so if you're shorter than five, six,
then you're short.
If you're taller than five, ten,
then you're tall.
Yeah.
And I'm five, six.
If I have somebody shorter than me,
they're short a hundred percent.
But if you're bigger than five, ten,
you're, I don't say an anomaly.
You were an anomaly at one point.
If you were six foot two and doing
CrossFit,
people looked at you like you had three
heads,
but we got more big guys in the
sport now on the sports side.
So, um,
CrossFit,
I don't like the Tesla feel accelerating
and it doesn't send the message.
Corey has roll coal voice to him?
If you drive in a diesel truck,
you can downshift into a lower gear and
it'll start burning extra fuel and just
call it rolling coal and blow black smoke
everywhere like it's going out of style.
he's saying about a tesla field
accelerating is that if you get in a
regular car with like an automatic
transmission and you go to pass somebody
you can feel it shift gears like drop
two and like it's that hesitation in it
tesla doesn't do that because there's no
transmission it's a golf cart on steroids
so when you put your foot down you
had better be ready to be going in
whatever direction that you are pointed in
because that's where you're going
quickly.
At least in the Tesla.
I don't know how it is in the
Chevy Bolt or whatever the other ones are,
but that thing that we got at the
house, if you want to go,
you point it in this direction and you
smash that thing down,
there's no hesitation.
That's where you're going.
You're going to get there real quick,
fast, and in a hurry.
You just said faster than a hurry.
Quick, fast, and then a hurry.
Oh, okay.
Quick, fast, and then a hurry.
See, I don't know what,
I'm not fluent in Cajun,
so I'm just trying to keep up.
So this rolling cool,
like we call that in Pennsylvania,
jack breaking.
Where you're basically using the
transmission to slow your car down.
Yeah.
and semis use it and they actually put
up signs in because it jacks up the
road well it's super loud on an eighteen
wheeler like it's super loud um crossfits
is hotter than a fox in a forest
fire cory probably you have no idea how
many of those i have
like store it away for a rainy day
uh it's it's a whole lot there across
that mark says the torque is immediately
available dangerous in my opinion you get
used to it you get used to it
it feels different when you're driving it
for certain but you get used to it
it don't burn the tires it just goes
it's crazy
uh crossfaces if you're say if you say
if saying you played anything but
wrestling surprises people you're short
when i tell them i was on the
basketball team in high school they look
at me like i like i just said
i just landed here from another planet but
you're short yeah i'm aware uh
Slater wants to know, Corey,
what are your grips of choice?
I'm in the market for new ones.
Been using the Victory Freedoms.
Frog grips.
Elite, whatever they are,
whatever number that they are.
No chalk and sticky as hell.
Love them.
Love them, love them, love them.
I hear good things about Frog.
I love my frog grips.
I'm on passenger.
You get nausea.
Third pair.
Uh, frog is so expensive.
I was explaining that to one of the
new members this morning.
Um, cause she was saying something about,
she was looking at jump ropes the other
day.
Um,
cause she's still learning how to in fact
jump rope and, uh,
She said something about it being
expensive.
I said,
what do you think is expensive for a
jump rope?
And she was like, I mean,
some of the ones I was looking at
was like forty dollars.
I said,
I want you to think about it this
for a second, because I'm asking you,
how much do you think the jump rope
that I like my newest one ran me?
And she was like, I don't know,
like forty five, fifty bucks.
And I said, if I could get a
I could get my speed rope for fifty
bucks.
I would do a backflip.
I can't do a backflip,
but I'd figure that shit out.
But no.
She's like, how much was it?
I said, my Oryx Morgan,
I think it was like a hundred and
sixty.
I said, you are, congratulations.
You're in an expensive hobby.
Corey has that bougie one ten rope.
I got the, whatever the Oryx
RX Evo,
whatever the big bad RX Evo is.
Yeah.
That's the one I got.
So I have the traditional RX and I
have the RX where you can change out
the ropes.
Yeah.
The quick change.
Yes, Larry, the Evo.
Evo Go?
I have the Evo Go.
No, I got the Evo...
Yeah, I know.
Yours is... Whatever it is.
Mine has the bead, the regular buff rope,
and then a speed rope.
And you can just snap them in and
out real quick.
That actually sounds really nice.
Because my speed rope is in my box.
My drag rope is in my box.
My weighted rope is in my box.
And my speed rope just stays with me.
I have...
That's the other thing I told her.
I was like,
if you told me that as a forty
eight, almost forty nine year old man,
I was going to own five different jump
ropes and use them all for different
things.
I'd have laughed at you ten years ago.
But here we are.
Mark's right.
I think it's called the free vote now
that he says that evil like an electric
mower, I think.
I don't know,
but I think it's a free vote and
it's and it has snap in.
The handles just snap into different
ropes.
It does not spin as well as my
traditional, um, as my traditional rope.
Yeah.
When I got that fricking that eat my
evil, I literally did like this.
I started my timer and just spun it
and just held it like that.
And it ran for like a minute and
thirty five minute, forty seconds.
Amanda says legends required, uh, evil.
That's kind of crazy.
Peter Benoit says,
I need to mortgage the house to buy
some of the fancy jump ropes.
What ain't that bad?
It ain't like you're eating at Arby's.
Yeah.
I didn't have to take out a second
mortgage.
I'll call my wife before I bought it
and be like, look,
we ain't gonna be able to eat out
this month.
I'm going buying the jump ropes.
uh mister missed the opportunity to collab
with devo and call it the whip it
not yet i mean opportunity is still out
there nobody else has done it uh yeah
everybody has all kinds of ropes man
it's wild dude that uh model they uh
i bought my weighted rope actually at
monster games because the the teams use
the velites one it's got a heavy cable
and heavy handles and you can add and
reduce weight to the heavy handles and
that thing is brutal larry said that uh
shelly tried the evo at regionals her face
lit up and i just took my wallet
out
We've all been there, buddy.
We've all been there.
Not necessarily for a rope,
but we've been there for sure.
Damn it.
Why do you keep finding stuff that you
like?
My wife pulls the purse off the rack.
Son of a bitch.
I don't.
she sent me uh my wife sent me
a link to one like a month and
a half ago or something like that and
i was like oh cool and then it
showed up at the house like three days
later four days later whatever it was
whatever uh peter says the horvat rope is
us didn't even know she had one she's
with rx isn't she uh possibly
mean she used to do a lot of
like their videos and stuff yeah i want
to say that rings a bell like that
would make sense but god dog two hundred
fifty bucks for what to have her name
written on it like there's no way it
could spin any better than the one that
i have uh crossfit says i had a
good i had good luck on timu and
ali express for knockoffs yeah i'm not
spending two hundred fifty dollars on a
rope
uh the lower horvat rope goes kadoos
kadoos kadoos bro yeah i'm not spending
just like i'm not spending two hundred
fifty dollars on running shoes like oh
it's got a carbon plate on the inside
and for two hundred fifty dollars it
better pick me up and run run me
like i shouldn't have to do a whole
lot it's just make my feet go two
hundred fifty dollars it needs to be wiley
coyotes with the rocket ships on the
bottom
Slater, I got the HD Frog Rip Elite.
Yeah, Doug.
Yes,
and she was doing crossover dubs in a
video for them a month before Boz ever
programmed them.
Yeah.
Not saying that means nothing, but...
Just saying,
I know an athlete that when that was
announced at the games, watched all the,
like half the other athletes pull the
beaded rope out of their bags that nobody
had ever seen before.
Yeah.
Oh, look, I just happened to have this.
As it turns out, it works really,
really well for crossovers.
I mean, come on, dude.
Yeah.
I don't have...
so uh lito actually is complimenting cross
fat for being on fire today and then
lupe says cross fat just be talking both
things can be true so true so true
ah i don't uh
I mean, look,
I did spend a hundred and fifty dollars
on my running shoes,
but that's about my limit for any kind
of any pair of shoes.
The only shoes I spent more than that
was on my cowboy boots.
I got a new pair of running shoes.
I went to the bargain sale bin online,
found some there.
They had my size left.
Click it, forty dollars.
Oh, if I can get them on sale,
like when I went bought my tears,
the first thing I did when I went,
I say the first thing,
the second thing I did,
I went and looked on their site and
decided I was going to go ahead and
try to get some of this as I
texted Rudy to see if we had a
code.
a coupon code because I know he's
sponsored by him.
I was like, hey man,
we got like a tier discount code or
something I can put in.
Purple, I guess, Scott, probably.
They're actually blue.
It's like a pretty...
I actually said to my wife,
they were actually pretty.
They're like a pretty blue.
The ones I wanted were orange and black,
but they didn't have them in my size.
It happened like that.
Um...
I don't understand the carbon plated
stuff.
Are you worried you're going to get shot
on the running course?
In the bottom of your feet?
Supposedly, because of the way it's made,
it'll spring you along.
Now I got it, though.
When you're selling your feet pics,
you got to protect the feet.
You got to take care of them.
You got to invest on the feet because
they're the money makers.
A hundred percent.
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Yeah, I have racing flats.
In case y'all wondering,
left over from my running days,
that I will run a five K weight
if I'm actually trying to win or trying
to think I can.
But other than that,
Uh, CrossFit is giving me advice,
energy return and stability.
But if you're slow, like us,
it reminds us we're slow.
I don't need, I don't need reminders.
I want to know if I'm slow.
You can just go look on my, uh,
my garment history at the last couple of
times I ran.
That'll tell you everything you need to
know right there.
Uh,
I only use them for race day though.
Not for training.
Yeah, because they're, oh, Kenny,
I'll give it to, of course,
you're going to get the Colton,
the Colton specials.
Kenneth DeLapp, I'm sorry.
Kenneth DeLapp is so in love with Colton
Mertens.
One,
I'm not going to be surprised when the
restraining order is sent.
I'm surprised it's not on the way now.
Right.
But he thinks his next pair of shoes
will be Lu Xiaoyi Zheng.
I'm hoping that's close.
That one, you got me on that one.
Lu Zhang.
Lu Zhang.
Okay.
Yeah.
And probably only because Colton wears
them.
Sponsored by him.
Didn't he have, like, gold ones last year?
When they first made the announcement,
like, they were all gold.
Yeah.
It's all about the rebound.
Think like prosthetic or adaptive sprinter
uses.
Yeah, it'll make you the Blade Runner.
I can spend two hundred dollars on a
shoe,
but if I don't have a twenty dollar
insert insole,
then every shoe sucks for me.
I think I'm getting to that point.
I used to run,
like when I was running a whole lot,
I insisted on the zero drop or a
little, little drop as possible.
Barefoot style.
I didn't want all that cushion bullshit.
I want to be able to run,
you know, feel the ground, et cetera,
et cetera, et cetera.
And then I bought these.
And if you will notice,
that's got a whole lot of cushion in
it.
And
I was wrong the entire time,
as it turns out.
I should have been running in these giant
pillows the entire time because, like,
I ran Monday morning, dude, and oh,
my God.
I just feel nice.
Apparently, I need to rename this show.
This is really the feet episode.
Picks, jump rope, shoes.
So, last thing.
I don't know.
There has not been an announcement,
but did you notice that Ariel Lohan is
now wearing Reebok?
No, I did not.
She's been a tier two athlete for a
while.
Yes.
She is now appearing at the Power Hour
in Miami with other Reebok athletes,
Fisa Goffey and maybe Elisa Fuliano.
I thought Elisa was Nike.
Who?
Elisa?
Yeah.
No, she's been Reebok a while.
Okay.
And in her last picture in her garage,
her last video,
she was wearing Reeboks in the workout.
So I think,
I think she is switching over to be
a Reebok athlete.
They're going to pay her.
Why wouldn't you be?
So there for a while, Reebok,
other than European athletes,
they'd kind of like,
it was like she and a bunch of
Reebok and a bunch of European athletes
were
Now they're leaking back into the U.S.
Do you think they're making a move back
into the U.S.
market?
I hope so, man.
I mean,
I haven't bought a pair of Nanos in
quite some time,
but it's just because I found something
that I like better.
But it's OG.
I mean,
they threw so much money at the sports
side of it,
it's not even funny why they were running
that stuff.
And they do make good shoes.
They do.
Reebok fit better than any other shoe for
CrossFit.
I have no complaints about any pair of
Nanos I ever owned.
And I had quite a few.
To the point where... He ain't wrong.
Nope.
And I was asked if they were going
after the Xenon market.
Entirely wrong.
This is how much we believe in him
around the house, I guess you could say,
is that like my wife thought she liked
no bulls.
when she was still at the gym to
the point where like I bought her two
different pair.
She bought herself a pair and whatnot,
but then she would always complain that
her feet hurt.
All my feet hurt.
All my feet hurt.
I said,
that's because you wearing those bricks on
your feet.
And then one day I just bought her
a pair of Nanos.
I found a pair that were in her
size that looked like they were going like
a colorway I thought she would like.
They showed up at the house.
She's like, he bought more shoes.
I was like, actually these are for you.
Gave them to her.
She put them on.
She came back from the gym and apologized
to me.
She's like, my feet don't hurt.
And I was like, yeah,
I bet they don't.
No one liked Nobles.
They were convinced they liked Nobles.
Correct.
I liked them while lifting and wadding,
but I only wear my nanos if I
need shoes.
I'm assuming Jodi works out in her garage.
I think basement, but yeah, same thing.
Same.
Uh, I have nano since forever,
but I typically divert to innovates.
Uh, currently have the tier CX twos,
but rope climbs means nanos.
Um, it's confirmed publicly,
but the second gen nobles definitely
messed up Justin's feet.
I can do Reebok nano X two and
X through X four,
but the X five are way better.
I have hated every Reebok since the nine.
And when the nines were getting put on
sale, I bought a ton of them.
So I have a ton of nines in
my closet to break out when I need
them.
I had eight nines.
I didn't get the ten because I thought
the upper looked kind of funny.
But then elevens, twelves.
I think that's the last ones,
maybe thirteens.
Cause when I was still getting my military
discount or when they were still giving
the military, it was.
So like I could buy a pair and
then basically get a pair free.
So when a new colorways would drop,
like when the new one would come out,
I would just go buy two pairs of
shoes and I'd have one in one color,
one on the other color.
You can look at my,
my closet right now.
Like they're still all in there.
So like I have,
there's probably eight pairs of Nanos in
there just lined up.
When I'm feeling froggy,
I still have a pair of nano fours
I put on.
Oh, those are so pretty.
I like those a lot.
Uh, they're orange and black and they are,
I just,
I love that rubber gate on the toe.
Same.
They're,
they're practically indestructible.
Um,
and I just keep them around for like
when I want to deadlift or maybe some
lifting.
I don't,
I don't want to run in them or
do anything like that, but.
I think I have like six pairs of
nines.
I wish they would bring back like they
bring back the two because everybody loves
the two.
So they just started making twos again.
I wish they would do that with the
sixes because I think the sixes look like
as far as design is concerned,
it's one of my favorite looking shoes I've
ever seen.
Is everything in Pittsburgh really black
and gold?
Pretty much.
My favorite color is orange.
I like orange accents on things.
And I'm a Bears fan, so they're orange.
And that's probably where it comes from.
But that's just me.
CrossFit, that's what I'm in right now.
Strike movements.
That's my CrossFit shoes.
Lucy Campbell wears Metcons too.
Coincidence?
I think not.
Yet Reebok stayed active in Europe,
but they did not in the U.S.
And so I found it like just a
little sneaky big news that Ariel's been
wearing Reeboks.
Good on her.
I stopped wearing Nike Metcons after the
fours because I couldn't run further than
a four hundred and without them feel like
I had bricks strapped to my feet and
they hurt a lot.
Be nice.
All those yinzers can't figure out more
than two colors.
See,
I'm a Penguin fan and a Pirate fan,
so I do get into the black and
gold a little bit, but yeah.
Pitt University is blue and gold, though,
not black and gold.
University of Pittsburgh, I should say.
They would never be the other way I
say it.
Anyway.
All right.
I think we've had enough.
The Scott anchor original innovate were my
favorite.
Scott, the Scott pan check.
I mean,
he wears innovates or did for the longest
time.
I don't know if he still is.
I love nerdy shoe talk.
Well, you came to the right place today.
We're here to serve the people.
That's what we do.
Strike movement looks good, though,
for sure.
I think they look good.
They're just a tiny bit narrower than the
Reebok.
Not for me, they're not.
And I got a wide foot.
I got so many.
Dude, my toes spread out in them.
I love them.
I absolutely love them.
I just love the toe box of the
Reeboks.
And it's really hard to find anything
else.
Their problem is durability and bad return
policy.
Who's durability and bad return?
I mean, strike movement.
Mine are pretty damn durable.
I beat the shit out of mine and
they're holding up.
I hate the, I hate the tears.
I'm so again, like the,
the back cuts into my Achilles,
something fierce.
good news is that there's enough options
out there because everybody's feet are
built differently so there's enough
options out there for people because that
people say like that and like i put
i put them on i'm like i don't
feel the same thing and i know people
that ran literal half marathons in metcon
fours and i'm like y'all are you're a
soldier i don't even know how you did
that because they beat the out of my
feet look i just really like them it's
wide
yes vicky i have two different pairs of
savage ones love them so many options well
