I was impressed with this fabulous sport, had never even heard speak at Crossfit here in Brazil. Sensational, are to be congratulated all the athletes for the incredible physical strength and endurance!!!
I did not start exercising regularly until Jan. 2009 at 39 years old. The big 4-0 was around the corner, and I finally had the thought, "If not now, when? It certainly is not going to get any easier from here on." So I signed on to the local Y, worked off 25 lbs. over a year, then kept at eating well (no junk, no soda, very few sweets). This progressed into a desire to take things up a notch, and it turns out CF was two notches. So much the better. Thus, my loving comments re CF above.
Its just how you talk about it. You condescend something people truly put so much into. We crush ourselves on a regular basis to get to levels we have never been and few can achieve. But your right these are all athletes that might not have been TALL enough or BIG enough. Specialists dont get far in CrossFit instead its about enduring in as many ways as possible. Im just giving you a hard time.. come train anytime, on me!
I hear your point, and cross fit doesn't nail specific muscles like gym work does or bring's your cardiovascular system to new levels like running does. But I would say that cross training makes a person the best definition of "physically fit" than any other sport does- all rounders
The guy who finished second looks like a buff version of Jim from American Pie :) This looks awesome btw, the guy who won has a physique of a superhero!
I guess I should answer your question directly: Yes. In the South Bay Family YMCA program in I was in in southern San Diego, the "Team Weight Loss Challenge" consisted of six week programs of varied fitness: running, sprinting, kettle bells, circuits on the machines, push ups, etc. It was great, and it credit it for opening the door to desire for greater fitness which led me to CrossFit.
Actually, no, I cannot. I have been CrossFitting only for 4/5 months, and what is there not to love? That you feel better than you ever have? That you can do stuff that makes your friends' eyes pop out? That you can bang out a good looking physique? That you can run more, lift more, and do more than you ever thought possible? I think the nay-sayers are either not-doers or cherrypick some bad anecdotes, e.g., "I know a guy who got hurt doing back squats." Forget the hating, keep on loving.
not even.... there are over 400 crossfit workouts and the crossfit games kinda doesn't tell you which one's they are ganna challenge you in until u get there.... so they may look fit... but they are sooo much fitter... imagin if u got events ur bad at and still have to try n win... u cant train for this sh*t cause it's so random of the events.... amazing work guys :D Sport of Gods
Keep in mind they are doing other events, like db snatch 75 pounds 50 times on each arm in something like 10 minutes. I bet most Olympic 5k runners couldn't even db snatch 50 pounds once.
If you have less weight and muscle on upper body and more in lower body i think that you are in advantage because the upper body is less used than the lower after seeing the exercises
D1 Collegiate Wrestlers are some of the strongest/fit athletes out there. Soccer moms "Do Crossfit", i would bet the top athletes that compete here don't do the daily "wod",they train like athletes.
On another note. powerlifter/bodybuilders/sprinters/endurance athletes etc. find that crossfitter somehow believe that they came up with something new or special. What they are doing is a type of decathlon or ( Pentathlon) nothing new about it . In which multiple levels of fitness are tested. it is great to watch and i am impressed by some of there fitness levels.
Maybe they do this in Crossfit to save energy for other exercises or they want to do core training within rope climbing ? i have no other explaination. For example: look how they do pull ups there ... they perform them in a "very special way" too :D
MaFd0n 7 years after making this comment and I’m no closer to grasping the metric system. I agree that the US should ditch the “standard” units of measurement and adopt the metric system like the rest of the world.
Uh... that's kinda the point. Though top crossfitters (particularly the women) are starting to become competitive nationally and internationally in Olympic weightlifting, fwiw, and some are world-class athletes in other disciplines as well.
I find it hard to believe that a bodybuilder, who trains for aesthetics and not performance, could defeat these guys. I doubt jay Cutler could climb a rope.
What exactly do you mean by "top wrestler"? If you are referring to the WWE wrestlers you are sadly mistaken. Love to have you come do some Crossfit with me and see how long you last.
And i didn't knock the competition it takes a great deal of fortitude and guts, these are all great Athletes, Not because they "Train Crossfit" but because they have Great programming in their own training, so essentially they drink the Kool aid that is Crossfit but chose different flavors.
Can you please state where i was "Speaking Nonsense"? have you ever trained with a Top level collegiate wrestler? They're physical specimens and most of them are tough as nails.
Crossfit is just so damn expensive. 140+ a month, god damn. I just been stealing various exercises and doing them at a cheap gym. Probably not the same though :S
Soccer players have great cardiovascular endurance but terrible in stregnth Same for NBA players Olympians? They excel in one area that's it. ex. Powerlifters = terrible endurance. Swimmers = Poor in strength. Sprinters = Poor in strength. Crossfit is about cardiovascular AND strength endurance. Two key elements of being "fit". You're not fit if you can run 26 miles but cant deadlift or squat 100 pounds. You're not fit if you can bench 500+ or dead lift 600+ but can't run a mile.
Im pretty sure crossfit is exercise in futility. On this types of games and challenges, you don't want to train "crossfit" but calisthenics and cardio. being light and mastering your bodyweight is na huge advantae, while having great strenght and core.
Well to be more specific,the workouts didnt include rope climbing,but the point still is that many athletes from different sports could compete with these men or women,of course I respect these top crossfitters,but saying they are the "fittest" is just too much

Yea, but these guys are doing things that any football player could only dream about. Remember, we're sitting around in our easy chair watching this.
What a circuit! Mad respect for the competitors!!
kawasakininja13 .
This was my favorite of the Games.

Я смотреть устал, не то что они там бегают )))) красавчики!!!
i can feel the heat from here

This is BRUTAL!!!
Man, that was a killer workout.
Crossfit seems so fun! idk why everyone hates it, its looks refreshing to do something like that rather than just being in a gym
would be nice if they put what the workout was in the description of the video

Damn.......i love this guy's build. Sooo hot!
These sleds have got to be insanely tough by the end!

Holy shit, this is really difficult stuff....Respect
Very very Nice video 👍💯👍
I am SABI Kuwait to
Very very thanks Sir G
15:47 ohh man I know that feeling and it is called suffering!
I am watching this in 2020 ..hope u had great past 7 years
Вот это мощь
ขนาดดู ยังเหนื่อยแทน
Went to the crossfit yesterday for the first time.... maybe someday i will be doing these.. lol
Hatt off for all competitors
Perfeito
This one looks brutal!! But a fun one.
Did you do any type of exercising before crossfit(body building, power lifting, running, swimming)?
not even.... there are over 400 crossfit workouts and the crossfit games kinda doesn't tell you which one's they are ganna challenge you in until u get there.... so they may look fit... but they are sooo much fitter... imagin if u got events ur bad at and still have to try n win... u cant train for this sh*t cause it's so random of the events.... amazing work guys :D
Sport of Gods
Does anyone know what type of shoes they are wearing?
Horse shoe
@@Headshot-eq3wq 😂👍
soy shoes
Respect
I watched this smoking a cigarette.. i think im gonna quit now
same
Unbelievable fitness game level
Keep in mind they are doing other events, like db snatch 75 pounds 50 times on each arm in something like 10 minutes. I bet most Olympic 5k runners couldn't even db snatch 50 pounds once.
todo eso me apasiona❤💪👍
Impresive
does anybody know the diameter of the rope?
I'm surprised these guys are that exhausted after a 200 meter or so sprint. I guess the goal is to be good at everything.
There's a huge emphasis on lifting/strength here -I'd be surprised if they can run a respectable 10 or even 5 K
Eric don't forget this was after a load of events. I'm sure their legs are dying from all the lifts and squats
3jwebb ask Bold if he s exhausted after a 100 sprint
nice video
If you have less weight and muscle on upper body and more in lower body i think that you are in advantage because the upper body is less used than the lower after seeing the exercises
is it just me... or is the volume of this video really low? I know for a fact when I watch the next video ill be deafened
how heavy is it?
Yes i understand your perspective, i didn't comment to put down Crossfit. I actually like it myself,i' have a similar training philosophy.
WHat do the numbers on their shirts represent?
D1 Collegiate Wrestlers are some of the strongest/fit athletes out there. Soccer moms "Do Crossfit", i would bet the top athletes that compete here don't do the daily "wod",they train like athletes.
On another note. powerlifter/bodybuilders/sprinters/endurance athletes etc. find that crossfitter somehow believe that they came up with something new or special.

In which multiple levels of fitness are tested. it is great to watch and i am impressed by some of there fitness levels.
was that furious pete?
What up with the rope climb? Is more of rope swing and leg push. Please someone explain. Thank you.
Rope stepping
***** To be honest -> i did :D
Call me crazy, but there is no legs in rope climbing, unless you are lifting a backpack full of ammunition.
Maybe they do this in Crossfit to save energy for other exercises or they want to do core training within rope climbing ? i have no other explaination. For example: look how they do pull ups there ... they perform them in a "very special way" too
:D
Yep.
What made a heat got 1.2M views and the very next only 34k?
awesome
Now try it with 15 lbs of body armor, a pistol belt and an AR 15. The Tactical Games!
@Muaythai81 is on point.
Insane. What is the song in the 11 m of the video?
Cê ta Loko jacaré
Did anyone notice the song in the background from 2:00 ... it's Michael Jackson's Smooth criminal! 😅
smooth criminal
Is that 2 inch rope?
how heavy is that sled?
Crossfit games reminds me of a nfl combine
Very nice game and exersais
2 blue (45lb) Rogue bumper plates= 90
and the sled is 185 so... 275lb total
start using the metric system like the rest of the world thx

Вот они сердечники
CrossFit before becoming a meme

Sirra
And i didn't knock the competition it takes a great deal of fortitude and guts, these are all great Athletes, Not because they "Train Crossfit" but because they have Great programming in their own training, so essentially they drink the Kool aid that is Crossfit but chose different flavors.
I'd like to see them all do Tough Mudder.
Ezz
whats up with the dubstep hell yea lol this sht gets me pumped
Well that escalated quickly.
None of them was built for endurance, for strength only. They held out pretty well tho.
اقسم بالله ابطال في معنة الكلمة
What's the name of the second song?
I know is a Michael Jackson song but which one?
Me gusta mucho quiero competir como me puedo comunicar para ingresar
Is doping tested ?
How much do those sleds weigh?
gap yõq amerkaliklarga
Just isn’t the same without Sean woodland’s commentary
Why no t shirt ??
👍👍👍
Can you please state where i was "Speaking Nonsense"? have you ever trained with a Top level collegiate wrestler? They're physical specimens and most of them are tough as nails.
Sir ya game kha hota ha
watching this while eating a fried chicken..
Crossfit is just so damn expensive. 140+ a month, god damn. I just been stealing various exercises and doing them at a cheap gym. Probably not the same though :S
they put on two 45 lbs plates on top of that + pretty sure this is day 3 of the competition...muscle fatigue sets in
Well, that settles it...CrossFit is AWESOME!!!
Nice
Not being funny, but they look as if there putting absolutely no effort in at all
Devon Smith prior to this theyve done a triathalon and they're also saving strength for later workouts that will be even harder
On top of that most of the men are 200 plus pounds of pure muscle
I was wondering why they looked like they was struggling.
ruclips.net/video/wFYwQe6Ah6c/видео.html
I don't do crossfit but pretty sure this shit is fuckin exhaust and need alot of durable and strength. They have to balance alot not just 1 or others.
can you make super extream hard crossfit?
200M sprint
100 push up
50 sit up
50 chin up
or what ever who will take challange
I am ready.
Yeah thats no secret,but many think they are all natural
Soccer players have great cardiovascular endurance but terrible in stregnth
Same for NBA players
Olympians? They excel in one area that's it. ex. Powerlifters = terrible endurance. Swimmers = Poor in strength. Sprinters = Poor in strength.
Crossfit is about cardiovascular AND strength endurance. Two key elements of being "fit". You're not fit if you can run 26 miles but cant deadlift or squat 100 pounds. You're not fit if you can bench 500+ or dead lift 600+ but can't run a mile.
Not athletes
Im pretty sure crossfit is exercise in futility.
On this types of games and challenges, you don't want to train "crossfit" but calisthenics and cardio. being light and mastering your bodyweight is na huge advantae, while having great strenght and core.
Chris p swimmers=poor in strength? Wtf?!?
Well to be more specific,the workouts didnt include rope climbing,but the point still is that many athletes from different sports could compete with these men or women,of course I respect these top crossfitters,but saying they are the "fittest" is just too much
I would win this
WOW.
