What's going on, everybody?

Welcome to Coffee Talk with Emily Rolfe.

Oh, is it actually?

Or is it just that I have coffee?

Well, you said let's do coffee.

Yeah.

Coffee talk.

I'm kind of past my coffee

because I'm on the East Coast,

but I'm actually drinking

like a salty element type.

Oh, nice.

I have a big workout waiting

for me this evening,

so I'm trying to prepare.

Okay.

Smart.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's one of those where it's intervals,

15 front squats, 10 pushups,

and then in the three-minute window,

max calorie assault bike.

Gotcha.

Until I accumulate 100 calories.

Right.

I love workouts like that.

Yeah.

But I always go to ham on

the first few assault bikes.

And then you're just

breaking even or just doing the buy-in.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And it makes it horrible to finish.

Is it Cal Sue, the 100 thrusters,

and you have to do five

burpees every minute on the

minute until you accumulate 100?

And I've seen people just

sit minutes out or just do

the five burpees and not be

able to do any thrusters

for three minutes in a row

just to come back down from the red line.

Yeah, yeah.

I'm going to be 55 next year,

and I've got to learn how to pace myself.

You can't?

Did you say that?

I need to learn.

I'm not good at pacing at all.

Yeah, it's tough.

Yeah.

Well, enough about me.

We're here to talk about you.

You were going back,

or you've qualified for

your sixth CrossFit Games.

Yeah, crazy.

In your wildest imagination,

could you have ever

imagined you'd be here?

Cool.

No,

I was saying that to Kali the other day.

I was like, see, you almost went there.

Lost my balance.

I was saying in my first games, 2019,

or just before that,

it was like just a dream to

make the games one day.

Like, wouldn't that be amazing?

And then, yeah, six years in a row later,

here we are.

It's crazy.

Yeah.

And what's completely

baffling to me is every

year you get better.

Yeah, so far.

The only exception is the

medical withdrawal.

But that's understandable.

Yeah.

If it was me, I would have competed.

We know that.

Yeah.

So as an athlete,

you started later in life

than most athletes, right?

Do you think that that

helped you because you

didn't have the miles on

the tread going into this?

Yeah, maybe I think, um,

definitely doing the other

sports that I did helped

like gymnastics was a huge help,

obviously.

Um, yeah, I,

cause I was probably 20

something when I started, right.

Not 17, 16, 15,

like some of the girls now.

So, I mean,

there's no way of knowing cause

I'll never say in the Dave interviews,

they started at nine.

Yeah, that's insane.

I think,

I think CrossFit's a sport that

accumulates so many other

sports so that if you do

other sports early,

you're still kind of training for that,

that you can catch on later.

So I think it's cool that

whereas like gymnastics,

you have to start when

you're five or younger.

Like you don't pick that up when you're 12,

you know,

if you're going to be compete at

a high level anyways.

Yeah.

So, so with that,

how has training changed

for you from 2018, 19 to today?

Um,

I think the intensity has definitely

changed.

Um, what I'm able to handle now,

intensity and volume is

actually higher than when I was younger.

Go figure.

Um,

And I think just like Kyle's

been coaching me now for that many years.

I think just knowing me

inside and out as an

athlete and knowing exactly

what I'm good at and what I

suck at and what I need to

work on and tailoring to

the T everything in my programming.

Whereas before I was doing

more general and I was

getting better because when

you start CrossFit,

really you just do it and

you do general things and you get better,

right?

And then as you get more and more specific,

you have to hone in on

those specific things.

You and Kyle kind of learned

this sport together, right?

And so he's become a better coach.

You've become a better athlete.

How cool has that been that

not only are you doing it

for six years in a row,

you're doing it with your dudes?

Yeah, it's so cool.

We say that all the time.

We're like, how cool is this?

We're literally traveling

the world and competing and

doing it together.

Like, I don't know if he wasn't my coach.

I don't know if I would

enjoy the process so much

and enjoy the competition

and the traveling and, you know,

the fact that we're

together doing it is it's so fun.

And you both have other jobs too.

Like this isn't your sole thing.

So you get to spend this

time together because other

times of the day you're apart.

Right.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So how has that gone?

Like the balance of work and training?

Are you getting better at

that or is it just old hat now?

I think I'm getting better.

The job that I have now is

better for CrossFit.

I'm only working four days a week.

And no nights.

I don't do nights at all anymore.

So that's huge.

Yeah, it's just, it's better.

I've learned how to make it work.

Wadzombie says, from the outside,

it looks like Kyle has the

same amount of passion for this as Emily.

Very cool to see that.

He does.

We have a rule on Sundays,

no CrossFit talk, like at dinner,

at the dinner table,

because we're trying to like separate.

And, you know,

now like coming into the games,

that rule is out the window.

But yeah, we're always just like,

he's always thinking of new ways.

He's always researching.

He's always, yeah, he's, he's in it.

He won't admit it, but he's in it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Would he ever coach anybody

else or is it just because it's you?

I don't know.

That's something you'd have

to ask him to be honest.

Okay.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Cause I'm sure that like, if he wanted to,

there'd be people that would take him up.

Yeah.

He did coach.

I don't know if you remember

Adam Davidson.

Yeah.

Yeah.

He coached him that year.

like during the COVID year.

So he had both of us and

that worked out really well, actually.

I think a guy girl scenario

works really well.

I don't know if he coached

another girl if that would work as well.

That was competing against me,

but definitely the guy girl works.

Yeah, yeah,

that that seems to be what every

good coach has.

I just watched the Ricky

Alex video yesterday.

It works for them because

it's a high-ranked guy, high-ranked girl.

They're not competing against each other.

They're so far apart anyways.

The only time they're ever

together is before the games, really.

He's on weight in Australia, right?

Not too bad at

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's funny because like I,

I go to Christie O'Connell's gym.

Right.

Like Pat has no desire to

coach anybody but her.

Yeah.

Right.

I mean,

you put in so much time and effort

and energy.

Like you have to do it

because you love it as a coach.

Like really,

you're not getting much out of it.

I mean, maybe Shane is cashing in,

but you know, you're,

you're really doing it

because you love it.

Like,

Yeah.

So he's retired with her.

They both retired together.

They're off doing other

things and enjoying life now.

Yeah, good.

Yeah.

So you went to West Coast.

You took fifth.

Never really in doubt you

were going to make the games,

which is good for you.

I've been around where

you've been on that line

going into Sunday.

Yeah.

And this time you were not.

Yeah, it was nice.

It was a calm... You're right.

Never in the weekend was I like,

I was just confident.

It was fine.

Everything was fine all weekend.

No big highs, no big lows.

It was just fine.

What did you learn that

weekend that you and Kyle

have brought back?

Am I... Okay, there we go.

I think specifics in workouts.

Um,

I've written like after every

competition I write down, you know,

I go through the whole

workout and write down what

worked and what didn't.

So there's always those specific things.

Um, but on a whole, I don't say,

like I say,

I think it was just like

confidence and it's,

it was nice just being comfortable.

No surprises.

No,

no it was good it was a

smooth I mean there were of

course things that didn't

go as I practiced and the

couple workouts I did quite

a bit worse than what I did

in training which was

disappointing so we kind of

had to pick that apart and

figure out you know what

happened there but that's

competition is is that common

no usually I'm the opposite

usually I'll shave minutes

off or I'll you know so uh

yeah the fact that I did it

was the snatch ladder I was

significantly faster in

training and then the

second event with the front

squat double under um and

yeah we went back and we

figured out you know I

switched the length of my

rope right before I

competed and I you know I

did a few rookie things

that were just stupid and

You know, you learn from them.

You still make mistakes at

this six years in.

But so, yeah, you made those mistakes,

but it's cool that you

could make those mistakes

and still never be in doubt

that you're going to the games.

Yeah, it wasn't detrimental,

which is nice.

Yeah.

And it was like that.

That event is such a high

risk event that I, you know,

I hate to say this and I hate to do it,

but I played it safe just

because the risk is so high.

And I knew where I was at.

And yeah.

you know, I knew, okay,

I'm going to take an extra 10 seconds,

pick up the dumbbells and

just go and do it all unbroken.

Like I'm not going to have to push it and,

you know, risk failure and, you know,

so that was,

I guess that was kind of nice,

but you know,

you never like to compete safe,

but sometimes it's just the

smarter thing to do.

Yeah.

To play it safe and still

take seventh in that event

is pretty good.

Did I get seventh?

You did.

Yeah.

But it shows that what you're capable of,

like, if you pushed it,

you might have taken top three.

Yep.

And I think going in, it was like,

I didn't need to do that, though.

Because, again, the risk versus reward,

like, on that event,

you saw people blow up, like...

you know,

do I try to get third in event and maybe,

you know, do better overall or do I,

and then maybe risk blowing

up and get 20th.

Like, yeah, I was,

I didn't get to come watch

you guys in the West,

but I was in the East and

the leaderboard changed

dramatically on that last event.

Yeah.

Crazy.

And they love that.

They love doing an event.

Same thing happened the year before,

like with the sandbag carry.

Like remember the Kelly Baker thing?

Like she, yeah,

it's just like creates the drama.

It does.

And I know people have been asking Boz,

did he test it so that he

knew that that was pretty

much the breaking point?

And he said, no,

that just by chance that came there.

You mean in the lunges?

Yeah.

Okay.

Interesting.

So, yeah.

So, yeah,

so the only question I have from

the semis is I know how you

are great at running.

Were you disappointed the

run was shortened?

Yeah.

I mean,

I knew I was going to do fine anyways.

So it didn't matter in the overall,

but I wanted to just,

I wanted people to get wrecked.

And I was like, yeah, make the run longer.

But I knew, like, I think they were right.

We all would have got like

capped somewhere on the run

and it would have been so hard to,

and then people would have

known they're going to get capped and,

you know, ran the race differently maybe.

So I think it was probably

smart because it was quite

a bit longer with the full berm.

of course I wanted to do

that part what I find

fascinating about because

you are you win running

events at the games then

you go into semifinals and

you have like this person

that comes out of nowhere

that's just a great runner

and he won right does that

play with your head at all

or do you just ignore that

and say you got to run your own race

yeah, you know, I knew, I knew her, like,

what she got, so I was like, okay,

that's the time to beat, like,

that's just competing,

you should know that, and yeah,

when I got second, I was like,

that's annoying, but I knew, like,

at the end of the weekend,

it wouldn't make a difference, so.

yeah it's that's what's

great about semifinals is

you have these specialists

that nobody really knows of

who are good at that one

thing and can really like

shake up a leaderboard here

and there yeah and you know

a couple other girls like

that helped me because

there was people I had to

beat and then the randoms

got like in between us so I

was like okay sweet thanks

just so you don't even know

that you know are just good

at that one thing you're right

On Sunday in the east,

someone from the first heat

took top five in every event.

Wow.

It was crazy.

Well, um, Olivia did,

didn't she win the first

two on Sunday in our thing?

Yeah.

Yeah.

And still didn't make it.

Yeah.

Which is insane.

Yeah.

It was crazy.

In the East, Tia won everything.

First place was out of the box.

So many things changed from 7 to 15.

I think Chloe was 15th going

into the last event and ended up 9th.

Chloe.

Chloe Govind David.

Oh, right.

Yeah.

You have a couple of events at the end and

I think it's done,

but it's never over until it's over,

right?

Yeah, that's great.

So we talked last night

about death sessions.

Why do you call them death sessions?

Does the intensity ramp up

right before the games or

have you been doing this for months?

So I've been doing what I was telling you,

like these Mondays and Tuesday mornings.

We call them,

Kyle calls them DOT training.

D-O-T, die or thrive.

So die, death, it's kind of the same.

And they're really tough.

Like they're,

sometimes I go to bed with a

little bit of anxiety.

No time to get up.

And Monday and Tuesday are like my work,

my evening work days.

So my first session,

it has to be right away or

else I don't have enough time in the day.

So I like get up and I go

like right away downstairs in the garage.

So it's tough.

It's like first thing I roll out of bed.

And they're mostly like high power,

high output, high intensity, minimal rest,

but kind of interval style things.

Like he'll make me do like

something on the rower, let's say.

And then get off the rower

and do thrusters or get off

the rower and do something else.

and then repeat repeat

repeat and he'll make a

pace that I have to hit

that's very it's doable but

it's extremely

uncomfortable like I would

never row the machine at

that pace if I had to get

off and do something but

like that's kind of the

idea and um yeah to kind of

kill yourself on the

machine and then you get

off and do something and

it's it's terrible they're

terrible they're hard um

But yeah, every Monday, Tuesday,

we've been doing that all year,

and it's helped immensely

in so many things.

Does it simulate something

that you think you're going

to see at the games?

Yeah,

we were talking about this the other day.

We were like,

it would be awesome if we did

an interval-style workout like that,

because that's the way I've been training,

but...

Even if we don't, just the way,

like what I've gained from

doing that kind of working

out is going to help me in

so many other workouts anyways.

So really it's a win-win.

It just sucks.

Speaking of interval training,

your question to Dave at

the end of your interview I

thought was brilliant.

And you asked him if he

could redo something, right?

And he talked about the

interval workout that he

thinks he screwed up on.

What I found really cool is

great people always look at

their negatives.

People who do great things

always look at their

negatives because he didn't

just list one.

Then he listed off a bunch

more that he messed up on.

You can tell that he wants

to think about that all the time.

What was that you cut out a little bit?

I asked him and he knew it right.

He spouted them off.

It's like he's his biggest critic.

Right.

And they're right there in

the forefront and you know,

he's thinking about them

all the time and how he's

not going to make that mistake again.

Yeah.

And it's hard when you have

someone like Tia who just

like kind of overachieves, right?

You're like, okay,

the field is going to take

three intervals for this, except her.

And it's like, well,

do you program for one

person or do you program

for the other 39?

I don't know.

Hopefully we've all like

caught up a little,

but still there's going to

be those events that, you know,

it's, it's funny.

Pat was on Savan this

morning and he was saying

that he loved it when Tia

almost broke the test and he loved it.

And BKG almost did the same

on the men's men's side.

And he was like, as an athlete,

we want to break your tests.

Yeah.

Like that's, that's cool to us.

And to him, it's a,

it's a broken thing he needs to fix.

Yeah.

That's because it's like,

that's the ultimate goal.

If you go into a workout and you're like,

okay, no one's going to finish,

it's kind of like, okay,

get as far as we can.

We know no one.

But if there's a chance that

you can or you can break it, as you say,

it's like, yeah.

Yeah.

And Dave has been saying in

these interviews,

the reason he's doing them

is because he felt like

there was an us versus them

with the athletes in CrossFit HQ.

Yeah.

Have you felt that in the past?

You know what?

I kind of not really, I want to say like,

I'm not really in the know.

Like I kind of just show up,

do what's programmed, like whatever.

Like I don't know all the

behind the scene drama and like,

I'm kind of just like, eh.

Ignorance is bliss, right?

Yeah.

Head in the sand.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I really enjoy, I'm glad he did them.

I think it did give him some

touch of what athletes go through.

I think it was cool.

I think he learned a lot about us.

Like some of the questions I was like,

do you know anything about any athlete?

But it's cool.

He's a cool guy.

Like he was fun to talk to.

I've been saying for years,

I started this whole

CrossFit life as a volunteer.

And he was so good to the volunteers.

He would come around,

shake everybody's hand,

thank them for coming,

doing all this stuff.

And nobody ever got to see that in public.

Right.

And now with these interviews,

I think they're starting to

see that in public.

Yeah.

He's not the old, like, oh,

we all hate you.

workouts are so bad and you

know I think it it's kind

of a facade like you know

everyone loves to hate the

open workout because it was

so bad and like but the guy

himself is not well and I

think at the end of the day

he wants to highlight you

guys to him that's like the

ultimate success yeah

He says over and over,

I hate programmers that

over-program and don't

let... Simple's better

because the athletes can

then show what they can do.

Yeah, I think he's big on that.

Oh, sorry.

No, no.

I was just going to say, I think he's,

he's big on more just, you're right.

Like simple,

like general fitness and the

best will come through.

It's like,

you don't need all these bells

and whistles and like weird

things and like, you know, but we'll see.

We'll see what's at the games.

I get a sense the athletes

are excited that that's,

we're going back to that.

yeah I am I know like I

think high school is cool

like I think it's it has a

time and a place but it

shouldn't I think you know

we're all doing it because

it's fitness not because so

and so can do a press to

handstand or whatever right

Right.

So speaking of the games,

a couple of things have been announced.

Chad, Dave's talked about that enough.

Then we have the run swim,

which is right up your alley.

How are you on this on the lake swim?

I'm pretty good.

I, I'm a good swimmer.

I'm not, I'm not an ex collegiate swimmer,

but I'm a good swimmer.

So

Yeah, I'm excited.

We don't have a ton of lakes around here,

so I'm only getting out

once or twice before the games,

like actual open water.

But of course,

I've been swimming all year.

And yeah, I'm excited.

I love swimming in lakes,

so it'll be good.

With it being a man-made lake,

I think the only big

difference is sight lines, right?

I did a lesson with an open

water triathlon coach,

I think two years ago now.

And yeah, that helped.

Because it is a big thing

and you have to practice it.

You can't just learn it and be like, okay,

I have it now.

It's something you have to practice.

Yeah, it's different.

And I think maybe that's the

advantage of not being an

ex-professional swimmer is because...

they're so used to looking

at that black line and

having all the sights in the pool.

Well, you were a swimmer, right?

But then when you're in a

lake and you see the dark

and murky waters and you have to spot,

it's completely different.

Yeah.

It's all about sight lines to me.

If you can swim straight,

you're going to do well.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I think it's going to be a

really cool event.

I can't wait to see you run against Tia.

Yeah.

I'm excited that the men and

the women are together.

I like that.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I think it's, it's just,

I think there are a lot of

people with good running

ability and the great

runners are going to show

what they can do.

And then can you just hang

on for the swim?

Yeah.

And I think, you know,

if you have one and not the other,

you'll still do okay.

But yeah,

it's hard to do really well,

I think because, you know,

so you blast the run,

but then you drown like you,

you know what I mean?

You're like slow in the water or, you know,

if you're not confident swimming,

maybe you can't blast the

run because your heart rate

can't be up here to go in the water.

Right.

So I think, you know,

and if you're a great swimmer,

but you're so far behind from the run,

like that's hard too.

So, you know, I think I'm okay at both.

Yeah.

And then we have Farrington field,

which is going to be a

field sprint and a 1600

meter with a happy star

somewhere in one of those.

Yeah.

I don't know.

I find it hard to believe a

field sprint is just down

the field and that's it,

but I don't know.

Maybe.

So I've said on,

on our like update show

that I hope it's a strong

man's fear type event.

Right.

Like just pick up an object,

run down the field, you know,

different kind.

Like if you remember 2017,

they did that with a yoke,

a sled and the Slater logs

from strong man.

Right.

Yeah.

Is that, is that, you're trying to sure.

I think, yeah, it's got, yeah,

that would be, that'd be super cool.

I'd like to do something like that.

And then depending how long that rest is,

you know,

maybe you have to run a mile on

like lactic legs that,

so everyone's going to

practice a mile and be like, Oh yeah,

that's my mile time.

But then who knows what, I don't know.

And we don't,

maybe the happy stars in the mile.

Yeah,

maybe you got to run with the star on

Bear Hug Mile.

Yeah, I've heard people say run 400,

then run 400 with the happy star,

then variations throughout the mile.

Could be.

Yeah.

Because it's open to the

public and it's on ESPN,

I want it to be something cool.

Not just in track meet.

You know, I hear both ends.

People are also saying like, oh,

just do like a straight up

mile so we can actually

compare CrossFit athletes

to other people that run a mile.

Well, in track,

I don't think anyone runs a mile, right?

It's 1500.

But regardless, I mean...

were pathetically slow in

comparison like let's be

honest like we're gonna

watch people in paris run

the 1500 faster than we run

the 800 pretty much so I

don't know if we'll see

yeah so do you like knowing

the events beforehand or do

you like being surprised

when you get there I don't

want to know anything I

would rather just go and

do what I mean in these next

two weeks you're probably

not going to get if you're

not a good runner you're

not getting better in two

weeks like you know you're

if you can't if you're not

a good lifter you know

you're not putting on 30

pounds in the next two

weeks like it's just

Why no stress about it?

And like people are going to

over practice and like,

how many step ups are you

going to do in the next two

weeks for chat?

Like develop, I don't know,

knee tendonitis or

something like it's just, we don't,

I get it why they do it to

create more hype and like it's coming up,

but like as an athlete, nah,

I don't want to know.

Well,

and they leave out enough details

that you don't really know

what any of these events are.

That's the thing.

You'll practice it one way

and it'll be completely different.

Like I said,

that mile could be on messed

up legs or it could be,

you're right with a sandbag without like,

whatever you train for,

it's not how you're going

to feel on day two of

competition anyways.

And we know Chad has a twist.

Yeah.

You know,

the only thing I think we know is

the run swim.

True.

Yeah.

But then again,

that's like a monostructural thing.

Like you're not getting that much better.

If you're not a good swimmer,

you're not good.

Like you're not going to be

good in two weeks.

It takes years.

Yeah.

Wadzomi says, I'd rather not know.

Can't imagine the mental

stress trying to prep if you know.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And people,

people will say like the people

who are in week three of second finals,

they'll be like, it's the worst.

Like watching is worse too.

We don't have to watch

people do it at the games,

but like just waiting and

knowing and like how many

variations and intervals

and like different things

that can you do in your training?

Like I would argue that's

not the best two weeks

leading up to a comp, right?

Right.

Right.

And you want to go in with

your body feeling good, not trash.

Yeah.

So yeah, I get that totally.

So what are your

expectations this year or

are you waiting to see what

else is out there?

Um, I'm not waiting.

I have expectations, but I'll keep those,

uh, between me and Kyle right now.

Okay.

But yeah, I want to come in healthy and,

um,

Yeah,

I want to execute the way that I can.

If I go into every event and

come out and be like,

that was the best I could do,

whether it's a first or a 20th,

that I got to be happy with.

What's crazy is we did our top 40...

rankings Sunday night, Carolyn Prevost,

Jamie and myself, I think from two to 14,

you could put in a hopper

and it could come out any which way.

Yeah.

The field has gotten so much

better as a whole.

And then we don't know how

people have improved over the year.

Yeah.

So it's crazy.

Yeah, it could be.

And especially with the games,

so much variety and

different events that you

don't see throughout the year.

So that's, that's the fun part.

So what zombie has one final

question for you and it's

not games related.

What is she doing outside work training,

reading, binging, any shows?

So what do you do?

Compress.

Um,

not much I was telling

someone else the other day

like I feel like there's no

energy to do anything in

this last like month before

the games you're just like

all the energies into

training and then eating

and sleeping like it's so

bad I was gonna sit down

and play piano the other

day because I play piano

and I just couldn't didn't

even have the energy like

to sit there and play piano

I was like I need to just

veg and watch TV um

So yeah, no shows.

I watched the Simone Biles documentary,

of course.

But other than that,

it's a very life in these

couple months here.

I'm looking forward to

letting loose in August and

doing some stuff.

I've never heard the piano

thing in all the times

we've known each other.

Yeah,

I did Royal Conservatory all the way up.

until uh end of grade 12 so

wow elise says she would

love to hear you play oh

maybe one day after the

games I'll practice a song

put it on my put it on the

gram yeah yeah that's

that's just crazy you

caught me off guard with that one

Yeah, we got our piano right in there.

And you think, like,

I guess it takes brain energy,

but I didn't think, you know,

you're just sitting there.

But I couldn't even,

didn't even have the energy for that.

I make a goal, like, games training,

I make a goal to do one

thing a day that's, like, productive.

Like, whether it's, I told Kyle, like,

it's pathetic.

The other day it was check the mail.

Or like, you know,

do one load of laundry or, you know,

scrub the toilets, like do one thing.

And like, as long as I do that one thing,

then everything's going smooth.

I need to use that on my wife.

I just need to get one thing

accomplished today and it's a success.

Yeah.

And whether it's like so

small that like pick up at

or rearrange just that thing by the door,

just like something very small.

Then, yeah, you feel good about yourself.

You're like, okay.

Her list for me is much

longer than one thing a day.

Yeah, I bet.

Well, as always, Emily,

it's a joy having you on here.

I am going to the games.

I wasn't sure that was going to happen,

but we're going.

Great.

We'll be hanging out there rooting you on.

I can't wait to see you out

there on the floor.

Cool.

We'll see you in a few shows.

Yeah, well,

thanks to everybody for joining.

We'll see you next time on

the Clydesdale Media Podcast.

Bye, guys.
