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.
We got workouts.
We got Hopper going the Francais.
And all of that and so much more
on Lunch with Clydesdale.
From the gym to the screen, yeah,
we cover it all.
Midday motivation every time you press
call.
Lunch with the Clydesdale.
Cowboy bring the heat.
CrossFit moving.
Music on repeat.
Half hour hustle, yeah,
we building that brand.
Grab a plate.
Tune in now, you're part of the fam.
I got it all mixed together, man.
All the things.
I don't know what does what anymore.
That's fantastic.
We got several buttons.
It's fine.
Not a big deal.
Now we can start the show.
It's beautiful.
I feel much better now.
There we go.
Dude.
I told you before we went on the
air,
I've literally been in a meeting since
eight o'clock this morning.
Not a meeting.
Several meetings back to back to back to
back.
Like one little ten second,
ten minute break to pee.
Yeah.
And that's been about it.
And let's get back into it because we
definitely have things that truly need to
be discussed.
Yeah.
Definitely didn't need to be an email.
Well,
Actually,
the meetings have actually been productive
today.
I will have to give them that.
These were meetings that could not have
been an email that actually had to occur.
They had to go through them.
Well, thankfully,
because that's not normally the case.
So good on them.
So I was watching Dave's Weekend Review
yesterday.
And he made the announcement that media at
the new location will have to be shrunk
down.
And he stopped and said, well,
it's because every arena is different and
the floor space is actually different.
You wouldn't think it is because it's like
a basketball or a hockey.
And they should all be about the same
size.
But the way the seats come in,
it's all different.
So they're going to have to shrink the
media pits in San Jose,
meaning that they're going to have to
reduce the number of credentials that they
give out.
And then he said, well,
and we're thinking about not doing the
Sparkly Band this year.
What's the Sparkly Band?
So the Sparkly Band is what I got
last year after...
some weird things kind of transpired and
it allows you in the warmup area,
all the, all the like all access stuff.
Right.
And how I could do the Hattie thing,
like while she was warming up and all
of that.
Right.
And you know what?
I'm okay with it.
Well, here's the thing.
Everybody gets it or nobody gets it.
I disagree.
If CrossFit media is going to be there,
that's one thing.
What I'm talking about outside media,
you know,
all the other people from you to whoever
else, everybody gets it.
Nobody gets it.
I disagree.
It all depends on your plan with it.
In my opinion.
Okay.
After being back there last year and
everybody having it,
Not everybody,
but a lot of people having it.
It was too much.
It was too much, I think,
for the athletes.
When I was back there,
I felt like because so many people were
there,
I was another annoyance to the athletes.
Okay.
That's fair.
Right.
If one T like,
and just because he's done it for so
long,
if Siobhan is doing a behind the scenes
and he has a plan to do this,
that makes sense to me okay right but
if i'm if i'm lucy campbell or emily
rolf or pat velner or justin madaris i
don't want sixteen people coming up to me
doing behind the scenes that's fair right
and after being back there and seeing some
people just sitting there with their
camera doing nothing
like why why are we back here you
just are doing it because you can and
you're not really doing anything with it
and you got it just to be able
to be back there with everybody else and
feel it feel important right so after
seeing it like play out with so many
people getting them last year i'm okay
with the reduction all right like come in
and say we're giving out
two sets of sparkly bands to two different
media companies because they,
they came to us with this proposal that
will help promote CrossFit.
That would be more.
Yeah.
I'd be, I'd be much better with that.
But the wild West of last year shouldn't
happen again.
Well,
I think if anybody's back there and
they're just sitting back there,
like you said,
like having to have a camera in their
lap and you're not meeting at that point,
you're just creepy hanging out and just
wanting to be close to the athletes
because you want to be close to the
athletes.
That's nonsense.
When I think people go in with the
intentions,
I'm going to be able to do stuff,
but those athletes are trying to win the
CrossFit games.
Like,
They have things that they are planning on
doing and need to get into a headspace
that allows them to do it.
Like when I did behind the scenes at
the Masters Games, it was just me.
I'm the only one back there doing it.
So it's not eighteen cameras.
And I tried to be very...
meticulous about seeing you can tell when
someone's like in the beginning of their
warm-up and when they're about to go to
the corral yeah right the the intensity is
changing and so you approach them when
they're when they've got the green band
like you know stretching it out and they
can talk not when they're snatching a
hundred and eighty just warming up to to
hit the corral
True story.
So,
and I'm not sure everybody in the media
space that got a sparkly band last year
knew the difference.
I think you're wise enough to be able
to point to,
let me not say point out as if
we're trying to accuse people,
but be able to see the difference.
Right.
Because you've been back there long enough
to see people that clearly have a plan
and are doing stuff that they know what
to do.
And then people that are back there,
they're just like, well, I'm here.
Now what?
Yeah.
Mr. David Johnson is correct.
You don't like it.
Just wait till next year.
They're going to change it again anyway.
Pretty much.
Pretty much.
Shout out to David Johnson while I got
his...
Name on my brain for punching his ticket
this past weekend at Magic City Games.
That dude is cool.
Got to hang out with him a bit.
Actually,
a fairly good amount this weekend,
and he is unbelievably fit.
He's a beast.
Good friend.
Yeah, he's chiseled too, man.
Oh, yeah, a hundred percent.
A hundred percent.
Mark Phillips,
you're giving them way too much credit,
in my opinion.
Well, Mark,
I think what's going to happen is,
because what I said is what I think
should happen,
I didn't say it will happen.
Right.
Because CrossFit doesn't know that they're
either at volume one or volume eleven.
They don't know there's a five on the
dial.
These amps go to eleven.
Right.
It's like the Masters in-person semis.
They want them.
Let's just throw everybody in the hopper
with forty people per age group and just
make it a total crazy thing that has
to be handled.
Not like, hey, let's try this out.
This is their version of trying it out.
David Johnson, Scott,
did you know Corey isn't six foot tall?
I had no idea.
I kind of did.
The conversation we had before,
before we got up there was he was
asking me about the, uh,
fourteen point seven.
He's like, man,
I think the little guys are gonna like,
just smash us on that one.
And I said something effective.
I've been five foot six since I was
fifteen.
He was like, damn it.
He said in my head,
everybody's the same size as I am.
I haven't met.
And I'm like, dude,
I ain't never been six feet tall or
anything close to it.
As a matter of fact,
while we're talking about that.
Speaking about six foot tall people,
Savan's in the chat.
Media standing around and not doing shit
is crazy and common.
Yeah.
I wouldn't lie.
I wouldn't lie.
I would forego a sparkly ban if we
got a good behind the scenes.
A hundred percent.
right where athletes aren't like overrun
with people and the people putting it
together that i trust to do a good
job would have that ability oh i see
you warming up for the snatch what's your
favorite color yeah nobody and there were
people back there that i saw no content
from like get published right why are you
back there at that point right
That's a sparkly band that could have gone
to somebody else.
Or that's space you're taking up for no
good reason.
Like, come on.
Yeah.
So a couple things happened in the last
twenty four hours.
One is Jason Hopper made a announcement.
A secret,
they say that he has decided to go
to the French throwdown.
If it's a secret,
why did he announce it?
I don't know.
Maybe that's just me.
I don't know.
And maybe he didn't call it a secret.
Maybe just the person with the thumbnail
did.
Who the hell knows?
The rules of this season are you can
go wherever you want to go and you
can punch in your ticket, whatever.
Where it gets confusing to me is...
is that he was not on the roster.
Oh.
Like the initial roster.
And now he is on the roster.
It just comes across as, oh, my God,
the games champ wants to come.
Let's find a spot.
Yeah, the champ called up and was like,
hey, man,
you think I could roll up over there?
And they're like, yeah,
because they don't want to turn him down.
because he is in fact a champ right
and i get it from french throwdown's
perspective we just got a draw to our
event hell yeah we're gonna take it yeah
it's gonna sell more tickets but it it
just goes back to like all the semifinals
can play it however they want to play
it and and then it gets confusing
It's already a confusing system,
and then you add these little tidbits to
it to make it even more confusing.
Lito,
who is going to the French Throwdown in
the Masters Division.
French Throwdown had two ways of
qualifying,
online qualifier and quarterfinals,
no invites,
but obviously different if you're the
champ, I guess.
I'm sure he had a high quarterfinal
finish.
But I don't know that he got an
invite or how that all went down from
that.
Well,
I would like to know what the time
limit was supposed to be on invites
because I know anything I've ever done
that I've had to qualify for,
like you have until X date to say
yes or no.
Not just, hey, here's an open invite.
If you decide to come the day before
it starts, just let us know.
We'll make spot for you.
Like, I'm pretty sure that's not a thing.
So that is a super,
I'm super curious as far as that's
concerned.
Sorry, quarterfinals in Europe only.
Online qualifiers are open worldwide.
So yeah,
so let's just make it even a little
bit more confusing.
Just add a little bit more stuff to
the pot.
I don't know, dude, that's odd.
He took Roman's spot probably.
It's not about that there wasn't a spot,
but there's a backfill process that they
just threw out the window to allow him
to come.
And again, Jeremy asked,
can you blame them?
No, I don't blame them.
I don't blame French Throwdown for doing
it.
You have a draw that is coming to
your event that will sell tickets.
Sell tickets, get eyes on the stream,
all of it.
The champs coming to town.
And in this wild west of a season
that we have this year,
you do what you need to do to
survive.
I had a great talk with Wilson Pak
on Friday.
And it's hard for these event
coordinators.
It's hard during this season of the invite
process.
Just filling the roster is hard.
Making money is hard.
Trying, not even making money,
breaking even is hard.
They're just in a really bad spot where
they can't promote who's coming until last
minute because of the way the invite
processes are happening,
whether it's blanket invite,
quarterfinal invite.
Qualifier, no.
It's just impossible to narrow down your
list of athletes until last minute.
I do like what David said up there
about the setup of the season.
Setup of the season allows athletes to
make it to the games who otherwise
wouldn't if the top athletes don't travel.
Well, in the Masters division, for sure.
big time big time there's a lot of
that going on but yeah and then what
uh lito right there
Personally, I'm buzzing.
I get to see the champ compete.
Not going to lie.
But I get the frustrations of qualifying
athletes who made the decision to go there
based on who else was going.
And now, surprise.
Hey, by the way.
Yeah, the champ's going to come here.
Just, you know,
just in case y'all were wondering.
Just want to go ahead and let everybody
know that the champ's not going to come
here.
So we're going to let him come here
because he's the champ.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, go back.
If we'd had these rules back then,
like Matt could have gone anywhere he
wanted to.
Right.
We kind of had those at in nineteen
with that wild sanctional year.
Where everybody I say everybody,
I feel like the majority were also giving
out prize money.
So like you could go make some money
if you qualified already.
Cool.
They'll just go down the list like Pat
Vellner wasn't even real sure how he
qualified that year.
Because he was like,
I think it was through the open,
but then I also won Waterpalooza.
And it was just, okay, this guy's here.
He already qualified.
Oh, you just won that.
All right, so you're already qualified.
So we need to move you from here
to there.
And then this guy's actually going to go
now.
Bro, it was a mess.
I remember that vividly.
Jeremy says he's injured, though.
What do you think he's operating at,
seventy five or eighty percent?
I don't know.
But what I do know is when he
was talking about it on Boys Interrupted,
he said,
I've seen the workouts and I know it's
not going to affect my groin like mayhem
would have.
So if he waited to make this decision
until he saw the workouts,
now we're talking even another level of
like, what the hell?
Right.
I'm just going to wait and see.
And then when they come out,
I make my decision.
Here's the thing, though.
Like you said,
the season is set up where he can
do that.
He can't.
And if you're taking advantage of the
rules,
you're taking advantage of the rules.
Yeah.
Barry McOchner says it would be a fun
event to watch.
I don't disagree with you.
I'm excited to tune into the French
Snowdown now because you know Europe's
going to bring some decent athletes.
Jason's going to be there.
Lito's going to be there.
I'm going to watch.
I think he's pulling a Tom Brady-Pats
injury report.
And if you weren't a football fan back
in the day when Belichick was in his
heyday,
he got busted for not putting people on
the injury report correctly.
So he put everybody on the injury report.
Yeah.
Everybody's injured.
It's fine.
Yeah.
This person has a, a Nick,
this person has a sprain.
This person's just tired.
He playing the game.
Right.
You can look at injury report and go,
I mean,
technically everybody on this team has got
something going on at some point.
Some of the stuff they're going to
address,
some of the stuff you can play through,
some of the stuff is legit.
Let's put it all out there and see
what happens.
And then it makes it very hard to
prepare for on the other end.
I'm not mad at it.
The right people will qualify.
So let me pose this question to you
because I've gone back and forth in my
own head and I can't.
I think the way,
if you want the event organizers to be
able to survive,
we have to go back to assigning people
to one event.
Whether we call that regionals,
whether we call that semifinals,
whatever you want to call it,
the event organizers are not going to
survive unless that happens.
But I've also said we have areas of
the world that cannot compete.
And if you go back to regional base,
you're going to get people at the games
that are guaranteed to finish thirtieth,
twenty ninth.
What's his name from South Africa that was
like forty and made the games because he
was Smith before Smith.
Yeah.
Before he popped.
But he's physically in South Africa.
Steroids and no steroids.
And he was, what, thirty seven,
thirty nine, something like that.
The last time he made the games,
it was something ridiculous like that
before he actually before they finally got
him.
That's the kind of stuff you've got to
run into.
Right, so.
If you if you need these event organizers
to survive and to run your semifinals,
you need to help them out.
by setting the lineup early enough for
them to promote.
Ooh, Ortega.
What if he doesn't punch his ticket in
France?
Ooh.
So this goes back to we've removed all
the drama.
We've removed all the drama from the sport
because he said it last night on Boys
Interrupted.
If I don't qualify at the French,
I will go to syndicate.
I have a backup plan.
Which is the third backup plan at this
point.
Right.
It's the backup to the backup.
Waterpalooza, he tried to buy his way in.
Yep.
Last minute.
Because he liked the workouts.
And he liked the prize money.
Then signed up for Mayhem.
Had to withdraw three days before.
Now he's going to go to French.
But he's still got his registration down
here at Syndicate.
Just in case.
What fun is the qualification to the games
when you get to have this backup plan
down here?
The backup to the backup plan.
It just... Yeah, I don't like it.
It takes away from everything that is
great about sports.
Oh, this guy's here.
Oh, wait, no, he's also here.
Oh, wait, no, he's also here as well.
You didn't get that beforehand.
And Syndicate has a great rule that if
you qualify for the games,
you're no longer eligible to compete there
because they want the podium to be the
people that go to the games.
Thank you, Wilson Park, for making sense.
So like Anika Greer and Miley Wade
qualified out of Brazil,
they're on the roster.
They're no longer coming to syndicate.
They probably would want to anyway.
Next man up.
Well, no, once you point your ticket,
dude, that's it.
We locked in.
Games is up next.
There's nothing else to do.
Unless you're Colton Mertz,
who probably would go to every competition
they'd let him attend if they let him.
That's just who that dude is.
Yeah.
Lito said his three spots in France,
though.
I just don't see who are the three
people who are going to beat him,
I guess, even at his eighty percent.
The fear, Lito, is if that groin pops,
and he's no longer at eighty percent,
and if that happens on event one,
now you're stuck.
This season structure allows people to
take the path of leash resistance.
Because Jason can look at these workouts,
because everybody's not doing the same
workouts.
And he can look at these workouts and
go, and look, and more power to him.
I'm not faulting him for that.
I'm just saying,
or anybody that is taking whatever path
that they can get.
But you can look at those workouts and
go,
and then look at the field and go,
yeah,
I can come in top three on those,
even at eighty percent.
Whereas everybody did the same workouts.
You might have had it.
I did them a week later or a
week before anybody did.
But then you showed up,
and you did whatever you did.
And if you made it, cool.
If you didn't, Sam Briggs.
Yeah.
But Sam Briggs' story is legendary.
It's legendary because she didn't have a
backup plan.
That's what I'm saying.
It's all or nothing.
The Katrin David's daughter story of not
being able to do a rope climb
became the antithesis of,
I went from all the way down here
to CrossFit Games champion.
Yep.
You don't get that story with backup
plans.
No.
And I think it's...
It's okay if the champ doesn't make it
back to the games because this was his
only way that he can.
Like, it's all right.
Yeah,
the Sam Briggs is exactly the example.
She won in XIII,
didn't qualify out of regionals in XIV.
It happens.
And the games went on.
The games went on.
She is still a legend.
FYI.
She made it back.
Fifteen.
Sixteen.
Shit.
I said.
Seventeen.
Pretty sure.
At least.
Right.
I think she's probably going to come back
in twenty eight.
Just.
Would not surprise me in the least.
I saw her name on a roster somewhere.
I'd be like.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That makes sense.
Yeah.
So like,
so I go back to this question.
I truly, so I'm going to,
I'm going to put some parameters around
it.
If we go to a system where you
get one shot,
one opportunity and everything you ever
wanted and we,
do we want it regionally locked or you
get to pick one and,
I think if you get to pick one,
it's going to end up being regionally
locked.
Does that make sense?
Like, well, you know,
there's someone going,
I'm going to Africa.
I'm first up Africa.
Right.
But then you got to set.
Okay.
So then you got to get with all
those event organizers.
Hey man, look,
we're sending all of these out at the
same time.
And like you get however many days to
choose, choose wisely.
There's going to be a lot of frantic
phone calls in the middle of the night.
Be like, hey, man, where are you going?
Hey, man, where are you going?
Hey, man, where are you going?
I know the boys in the real estate
say that they don't necessarily take that
into account to a degree.
They do,
so they're not just beating up on each
other.
But I will guarantee you,
if you put all the invites out on
one day and you just tell the athletes,
hey, choose.
Choose wisely.
And let's see what happens.
That would cause a drama.
Or we do like two,
twenty-three semis where they were semi,
they were continent locked.
Yeah.
And then like the U.S.
told you which one in the U.S.
you're going to or North America.
Yeah.
There, whatever.
Yeah.
Right.
I'm kind of in the camp of,
even though I was against it back in
the day, going back to regionally locked,
I think that you get more fans coming
to see their local heroes in their local
area than you do with a choose wherever
you go.
Yeah,
you're going to get more butts in the
seats if it's regionally allowed.
Yep.
I would agree with that.
David Johnson,
I think they should let them travel but
limit it to one in person.
You get back to people having temporary
residence for the easier path.
No system is without flaws.
I'm okay with that flaw.
If you're willing to rent a house...
in a region that makes sense to you,
if it means that much to you to
circumvent the system, go to town.
If you wanted to rent a house in
Cookville, Tennessee,
because you feel like that's your best,
then hey, bro, go for it.
You know people wanted out of the East
there for a while.
I live in St.
Louis.
I'm on the West now.
No, no, no.
Hey, bro, technically, I'm in the West,
even though I'm on the east side of
the Mississippi River,
which makes zero sense whatsoever,
but okay.
You'd think that'd be a demarcation line.
It's not.
Jeremy says it wasn't broke,
but they decided to fix it anyway and
subsequently made it worse.
That is classic CrossFit HQ stuff.
Oh, Amanda.
I met Amanda this weekend.
Amanda's awesome.
Use how you're ranked after the opening
quarterfinals as priority for choosing.
Higher ranking chooses first.
Puts emphasis on doing well in both.
Make the open mean something.
I don't hate that.
Make the open mean something.
For the up-end, higher-end athletes,
make quarterfinals mean something.
Other than just a pay-per-view win.
Yep.
Good job, Andrew.
Just put your parents' address for the
West if you live in the East.
That was done, that's for sure.
But again,
if it means that much to you to
show residents somewhere else.
Yeah, if you're willing to spend,
I don't know if you've looked at rent
prices anywhere here recently,
but it ain't cheap.
It ain't cheap.
If you're willing to spend that amount of
money just to be able to say that
you live in Idaho, then hey, bro,
go for it so you can compete in
the West.
By all means, please do.
Even though you're still training at
Mayhem in Cookville or wherever.
By all means, please do.
Knock yourself out.
You're just throwing money away just to be
able to say you live in the West.
well i don't i don't think the east
is necessarily the best anymore no i'm
just like all like dylan james and justin
are all over there now on the west
side yep it's it'd be it'd be interesting
to see how it went regionally locked now
but again i'm gonna i don't hate andrew
stenn's idea not at all because it does
make the open matter then
so yeah one last thing before i get
back to my deluge of meetings today um
age group workouts are out and available
yes sir and at first glance i do
not hate these i i think they're very
entertaining
What always sucks to me is CrossFit seems
to do their – well, CrossFit wrote these.
I did get confirmation on that, right?
These are not Bob and Joe.
These are CrossFit.
These are the ones I want to watch.
That deadlift ladder looks freaking
awesome as a spectator sport.
Okay,
so I saw – Let's go through them
real quick.
Yeah, please.
So we have the first one is five
rounds of time, seven squats, snatches,
three rope climbs.
Second one is three rounds of twenty
lateral burpee box jump overs,
ten fifty foot shuttle runs,
then three rounds of one hundred double
unders, fifty foot handstand walk.
Handstand walk means nothing.
I like it, though, because it's there.
And I like the shuttle run in this
stage.
Sorry, my throat.
No, you're good.
Ten, fifty-foot shuttle runs.
So, three rounds.
So, sixty bucks.
Is the fifty-foot shuttle,
it's fifty-foot down and back or it's
fifty-foot down?
So,
like twenty-five feet down and back is
one?
I think it's probably twenty five feet
down and back.
But that's one hundred and fifty of those.
Three is a thousand meter row,
fifty thruster, chest to bar pull ups.
It's Jackie.
It's double Jackie.
I love it.
I'm not mad at it.
And then one deadlift every minute on the
minute until ten minutes.
And wherever you cannot lift the deadlift,
Max cleans for the tiebreak.
Oh, so the weights are set.
Yes.
Okay.
Yeah.
It's a big spreadsheet because all the
ages have different weights.
Of course they do.
Of course they do.
And then finally...
As many reps as possible in ten minutes,
a fifty foot dumbbell walking lunge,
and then two, four, six, eight, ten,
et cetera.
Strict handstand pushups.
That I do like.
I do.
I like it.
I think adding the squat to the snatch
makes that a more technical lift.
Oh, for the first one,
for the rope climb one?
Yeah.
I think that having strict handstand
push-ups and a handstand walk,
because I think it's unbroken for the
younger age groups, the handstand walk,
it just makes you think about it before
you do it each time.
But anyway, I don't hate these.
For Shanna, who can...
deadlift the ladder.
She said it's just a race to see
who can do as many cleans as possible.
I need to go see what the weights
are on the deadlift ladder for me because
let's see.
But Shana has a pretty good deadlift for
her age group.
Where are the semifinals?
interesting to ted's test deadlift and
strict handstand push-ups again since we
did those in quarterfinals but i'm not
here to complain about it i just do
what's written david johnson says last
weight is five hundred for you all for
us well that's my one rep here's the
thing like they tell you the increment
that you have to go up and they're
not
It's sometimes there's like big jumps.
Sometimes it's little jumps,
but you have to do ten deadlifts.
So even your one rep may be whatever.
How often do you deadlift one rep at
a heavier weight that many times in that
short time frame?
Not super often,
if I'm being completely honest.
Oh, wait, that's the wrong one.
Right.
Is that four?
Alito says I'm a really poor deadlifter
and I can lift the final bar.
It is very light.
I just think the compounding effect,
I'm anxious to hear after this is all
over,
what is said about having to do that
many heavier deadlifts that quickly
through this ladder.
Yeah.
Yeah.
see okay nope that's girls that's women
boys david jones there we go so three
sixty five three seventy five four five
four thirty five forty five fifty five
that's not terrible so david johnson says
this one would be amazing to watch in
a live setting because people would be
randomly failing and then running to clean
the bar
That is correct.
You never know who it's going to be.
That's correct.
You're going to have to have a hell
of a pit crew as well.
Yeah.
Adding weights, changing weights, whatnot.
That would be really fun to watch live.
He's absolutely correct because all of a
sudden, like you said, people are failing,
running around, trying to get to the bar.
Yeah.
A minute,
especially once you start getting those
super heavyweights,
that's not a whole lot of time to
change weight.
It just isn't.
Yeah.
See, I know for me,
my first rep sucks,
and then my other reps are pretty decent.
And so to force me to make it
a one rep every time would kill me.
And my back would be smoked.
towards the end of this ladder,
having to do that many lifts.
I'm looking at cows at CrossFit.
Just have eleven boars out.
Amanda says pit crew will be vital.
A lot of it is like ten pound
increases,
but there are a couple bigger jumps.
Most of the women is...
like just slapping stuff on yeah mine's
ten pounds thirty pounds three seventy
five to four or five thirty pounds ten
pounds ten pounds ten pounds ten pounds
ten pounds fifteen pounds I guess for
loading sake it probably in terrible
Imagine misloading the last bar and not
realizing it until afterwards.
Or one of the middle ones.
I think that would be worse.
Yeah.
Well,
because if it's one of the middle ones
and you don't realize it,
you just kind of keep going.
And then all of a sudden somebody's like,
I don't know if we loaded that more
correctly.
Like that's going to be, that could be,
that's a nightmare scenario.
Yeah.
Our friend Lana loved the deadlift
workout.
David Reed says,
the deadlift workout can be gamed.
If I knew I was at my limit,
I would go to the next round,
obviously not try the deadlift and recover
for the cleans.
What if you don't attempt the lift that
gives you an extra five seconds to clean?
ish and you have to have that bar
sitting to the side because it's a
different weight yeah of course you're not
going to clean it and it still needs
to be on camera yeah i'm late watching
from the beginning like share and
subscribe and uh congrats on the abadabado
yeah it took us a couple attempts but
it's fine we know where it's at now
it's cool
It was us hitting the yabba-dabba-doo
button.
It was like Dave Castro deadlifting.
We were almost there.
We were almost there.
And finally, after about thirty seconds,
we got there.
I will have that video burning in my
brain for the rest of my life.
You don't even have to attempt.
You can use the full sixty seconds for
cleans.
Yep.
Well,
I had a lot more planned than this.
Well, it'd be like that sometimes.
But I've got to get back to work.
You knuckleheads have to get back to work
too.
But you know what helps me get through
the workday?
A good night's sleep.
Good night's sleep after taking my third
Z,
getting that collagen protein in to
recover because I'm back to working out
again.
And I need that because my muscles are
sore as hell.
And I need that non-melatonin aid to get
me to sleep through the night.
That's a wonderful thing.
And you can get it for fifteen percent
off by using Jazzy at checkout or go
to thirdsy.com backslash Jazzy.
Get fifteen percent off.
I'm trying to find the Dave Castro
deadlift.
And you would think Google would just be
like, oh,
you need a Dave Castro deadlifting.
Got it.
Apparently he's hired someone to scrub.
Because I am not.
Nope, not there.
I was trying to do a quick for
you, Barry.
But struggling.
Yeah, I don't see it.
I don't see that one, I should say.
There's a bunch of videos of Dave Cash.
Oh, wait.
Huh.
That's odd.
Lipson and Kalipa.
Okay.
The fun part about this is that it's
taken almost as long to find it as
he did to actually deadlift it.
Oh, here we go.
Progenics.
Here we go.
I'm sorry, dude.
Drive, drive!
Nice, dude.
That ain't it.
That's not the one.
Yeah, that's PR.
Come on.
And here we go.
Woo!
Shout out to Dave's grip.
Shout out to Dave's grip,
to Dave's grip strength,
because like that was what?
Twenty four seconds of him with four
hundred sixty five pounds in his hands.
Wow.
Wow.
There it is.
And he doesn't even make the lift.
No.
Twenty four seconds of fighting.
And then finally, he was just like, yeah,
this ain't happening.
Grit determination drive.
Dave Castro.
Castro.
Castro.
Castro.
