I the first cross fit I seen was on RUclips this year at some comp. the deadlifts were done with a super banana back. If I did that I would be in a wheelchair for about a year at least.
In the old system of weightlifting and some systems now, if an athlete doesn't make it to intercontinental competition but is still good enough to be a high ranking continent champion or a champion of their country, since all athletes don't go to all comps, the country directs their studies to being a coach rather a better athlete.
It's really great that the US has such an accomplished coach. I recall seeing Smalcerz competing in the 1970's, when he was the best in the world in his class. Ms. King can go very far. Best of luck to her and to team USA!
@@shoopshoop7650 Like I said, for anything that demands high accuracy, Metric is king, even in America. English measurements are used by the general population because it's what they are used to, and measuring is not a major part of their life, so why force a change? In anything scientific, or anything which is very reliant on accurate measuring, metric is the standard.
@@shoopshoop7650 you'll only see the metric system even in america on anything engineering related, science related, or like the post above said anything which requires high accuracy. Medical is another example of the metric system in America.
This is so inspiring! I’ve never thought that someone as short as me would ever be able to do something like that. I guess that the secret is to never limit your mindset like I’ve done. Anyways, she’s amazing.
"The first day I got into Crossfit, they had us do a max back squat" LOL. Making beginners squat with heavy weight in one of the hardest exercises to perfect and do properly. On their FIRST DAY
She was a proven triathlete. She went to a coach to try a different type of sport and the first thing he does is gauge where she is at so he can give her guidance on how much to use for reps so she improves faster.
Fennec Besixdouze she diets to get down to weight for competition. Therefore, she has to weight under 48kg on the day of competition. To get under 48kg she has to be in 400 cal deficit, and will also use water and sauna to further manipulate her weight.
Munchies Yeaahh no she cuts for competition bulking she does not LIFT on a 400 cal deficit, no chance she's strength training on a defecit, let alone 400 cals. She would clearly bulk for the extra strength then she might cut for her own preference after comps.
Each lift is one practice?So much focus & dedication to excel. Weightlifting is really in its own class, Awesome. I also learned I need a better breakfast!
I know the series is called fule, but it's really interesting to see how some atheltst enjoy there food while other see it a just a means to an end and something you have to do to complete there goals.
"on my first day of crossfit they had us do a max set back squat" Pretty much summed up why crossfit is complete and utter bullshit everyone should avoid in one sentence.
Why is that? I'm asking because I started Crossfit a short while ago, and I'm curious to know whether what I'm doing is sensible. I'm also curious to know what you would do instead. Are you a weightlifter? Thanks in advance for your advice.
***** Well the idea of crossfit is to be functionally fit I guess and there is nothing wrong with that. In the events they are tested to do movements fast or how much reps they can do etc., but the judging is always off/unprofessional, resulting in people compromising form trying to get a better result. Basically crossfit is hated because crossfitters tend to have very bad form and even the coaches sometimes either teach bad form, or just don't correct it. Also they tend to test max sets and 1 rep maxes in a reckless manner. In the example she said of her first day of crossfit they had everyone do a max set squat, which is dangerous with bad form and definitely not something anyone should do when they just started working out! In my opinion crossfit isn't inherently bad, just make sure you are exercising with correct form.
Hadia Arab You laugh at people who can snatch 140, c&j 170+, then run a 5k? ? Which other sport apart from Oly weightlifting (which is just these lifts) can boast people who put up these numbers? I'm sure even if you didn't have the mobility of a rusty door, you'd be having trouble snatching a female bar, lmao
RyanFrizey Not enough of it for how much she is working out. Not to mention all the nutrients and antioxidants she will need. This really is bro-science with a side of spinach haha.
hittman1412 Yeah and I will be walking around with a fully functioning brain while she is suffering from dementia in a wheel chair. Not to mention the massive amount of free time I have to spend on a more productive hobby, like school. I know money does not buy happiness but studies do show that a college degree in the right field sure doesn't hurt :) While being exposed to body building culture has been shown to increase levels of depression and lower self esteem. I am sorry but her ability to lift something is just no longer impressive. It is 2015, people have fucking robot skeletons hooked up to wifi on their google glass. This mindless none sense just looks so out of touch with the times, its like a fucking dinosaur haha.
I trained for about a year and a half, and at 11 years old got into my first national competition in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in which I placed third. Now I've been going for about 5 years, and have progressed a lot.
@@nickmilone5996 My god...I was just trying to relate my own personal experience to the comment. I was by NO MEANS saying that I am better than her. Please don't take my comment the wrong way.
im fiteen and ive been training wrestling for 11 years now, i have blacked out a couple of times from cutting weight for my competitions, right now im getting more and more into weightlifting tho
She's so strong, especially for her size, fair play to her. A very focused and passionate person and yeah I agree completely with the nutrition thing, you are what you eat after all ; )
cutting is much easier when switched to a plant based diet. as well as making recovery much smoother, you naturally can stay leaner even when consuming a whole lot of protein.
I had a shoulder injury several months ago. Everytime I see miltary presses, snatches, clean and jerk my shoulders cry. I weigh 180 pounds, 6 ft and am scared to even attempt lifting anything in a shoulder press movement over 100 pounds. I hit 60 pound dumbells for chest press 10-12 reps but am scared to attempt 30 pound dumbell shoulder press.
+ace8656 more like 0 miles, 75g of carbs spread across 2 meals is really not jack shit. That's the amount you should eat if you are being sedentary but still have muscle mass. The body burns a lot while doing nothing especially if you are an athlete.
Fasting is the best way to cut weight and get ready for a competition. You'll cut weight ridiculously fast and thus won't have to dehydrate yourself two days before the competition to drop the last few KG's of weight.
***** agreed with you apart from the real sports bit. Just because America isn't top in Weightlifting = not a sport? These people are far more explosive than any NFL player or Basketballer
Damn, 2 and 1/2 hours lifting? I've done two hour lifting sessions and 30-45 min sessions. I found that I get better and quicker results when I do the shorter length sessions. I guess everyone is different but damn. that's a big difference.
tiffaniecru29 Hahaha they are just lifting a weight. Pretty useless. Would rather having muscles that I use on a daily basis, instead of strength that I use for "fun". Such a mindless hobby, cant imagine it being that rewarding when compared to normal recreation. The one thing I have noticed about all weightlifters I have met is they all are not rocket scientists by any means.
This FUEL series really brings insight to a variety of different lives and what they eat. Keep it up Munchies!
prefer just the normal munchies-this is more to do with what athletes eat for competition
Fun fact: she later went on to compete in the 2016 Olympics in Rio.
@vishnu saini why do you capitalize every word
@vishnu saini You do know that in English not everything is a proper noun, right? Weirdo
@vishnu saini I felt weird reading that, wtf
1:11 The editing is beautifully executed with the slowmotion video of her lift and the audio overlay of her talking. On point!
"The first day I got into crossfit they had us do max back squats"
Yeah, sounds as smart as anything I would expect of crossfit.
I the first cross fit I seen was on RUclips this year at some comp. the deadlifts were done with a super banana back. If I did that I would be in a wheelchair for about a year at least.
@Averil Mae Gym bros and crossfitters are equally braindead so stfu
@@genedoolie2877 *permanently
Ours was max deadlift..........
I bet they also made them max out handstand push ups without the proper technique
The production is really clean, natural and pleasant to watch. You guys are doing wonders!
She's so tiny and strong I admire her
a lot of power for her size
I like how she warms up the bowls cause she's weird and doesn't like them getting cold lol
I love that she wants to be the best she can possibly be instead of the best there is. You are your own biggest threat! Great motivation!
FUEL is easily my favorite Munchies series.
Here I am getting a head rush when I sit up too quickly about to finish off half of my dominos...
MrDokha 😂😂😂
Get gud
I bet that trainer has serious old man strength.

Not that much, since he is pretty skinny.
Looks strong for someone that skinny, tho..
He was actually the olympic champ in 1972!
I like her mentality, very positive!
There wasn't even that much talk about food in this ep, but I was okay with that.
Dom's Sketch Cast hey big guy

But that snatch doe....
+Dom's Sketch Cast because _reasons_

Mad respect for this girl. Excellent video too.
please everyone just fyi, this is olympic weightlifting and not crossfit.
lol at all the dudes being creepy in the comments. anyways this was pretty cool and congrats to her for getting to the level she's at so fast.
so weird hearing Americans say kilos lol
America uses both systems pretty equally. For anything that demands high accuracy, Metric is king, even in America.
@@nikolaibreckenridge2287 not equally. I usually only hear about metric in science and somtimes in math, Also online

Champion Weightlifter Lifts Double Her Own Bodyweight On A 400 Calorie Deficit.
Fennec Besixdouze she diets to get down to weight for competition. Therefore, she has to weight under 48kg on the day of competition. To get under 48kg she has to be in 400 cal deficit, and will also use water and sauna to further manipulate her weight.

Taylor Morrison She cuts for the competition to make weight. She would then 'bulk' after the competition.
Munchies Enjoyed this very much. Loved her positive strong attitude and great work ethic, very inspiring.
+Munchies tuts she slammed the bar must be a yank thing iyla wouldnt be impressed
I hope y'all continue this FUEL series. It's really dope.
Huge respect for her!!
I can do 150 kgs but I 'll now look forward to 200 in a year..
Thanks for the inspiration//
Love this. I love how a sport can give purpose to our lives
wait! did she just state that her squat was 90kg without any training at around 50kg bodyweight? wtf
Sounds pretty bullshit to me, too. Probably some half-assed above parallel squats and no olympic ones, but still
loooool just came to that part! Bullshit
Maybe she meant pounds
not with direct training, snatches and cleans and jerks train the squat in a way, have yall never lifter in your lives?
all her food looked amazing
Each lift is one practice?So much focus & dedication to excel. Weightlifting is really in its own class, Awesome. I also learned I need a better breakfast!

lifting weights doesn't make you a good fighter, lucky for you there are a bunch of female fighters
That’s a serious beta mentality
I saw this grill at the Olympics today and I remembered the video, congrats to her!!
I like how she eats actual food
"on my first day of crossfit they had us do a max set back squat"
Pretty much summed up why crossfit is complete and utter bullshit everyone should avoid in one sentence.
👍
:DD Lets get all the rookies injured on the first day!
Lol, that's what I thought as well xD

she is so awesome !!

2 and half hours/session and 9x a week🤣🤣🤣 i am 2 and a half too but 5x and here i thought im a badass with 5x a week😱😱
I could eat breakfast every meal too lol it's by far my fav.
Started so late, came up fast. Amazing !!
I just watched an old training video with Zygmunt Smalcerz!

1st day of CrossFit at 100 lbs and can back squat 200 pounds?! Crazy
TODAY THE DOPING MAKE MIRACLE
Really inspirational
Forgot to mention the test suspension and growth hormone just before bed. Lol
If she was juicing she would be more competitive on the international scale. Lack of
PED use is what holds USA weightlifting back internationally.
Did Oly for awhile kinda hated it. Respect for anyone who can actually make a life out of it.

my knees hurt just watching this >_o
9:14 Did this fool just say 75g of carbs is a lot?
Jay 75g within two meals and using complex sources (so vegetables mainly) so yeah, it can be a big bowl of spinach.

Michaelangelo Harbree but it's so yummy!
Absolute wifey material! 4:28 was when i came to my conclusion lol
Cool stuff but I'm pretty sure most athletes in the lighter weight classes do double bodyweight in the C&J? If not more.
Fasting is the best way to cut weight and get ready for a competition. You'll cut weight ridiculously fast and thus won't have to dehydrate yourself two days before the competition to drop the last few KG's of weight.

And she made it to the Olympics in 2016
drink and train, hummm, I should try that!
Boshen Gao They say the romans drank wine all the time even before their sports or military training. i'm gonna try it next lift day
For all that fancy equipment, the us weight lifting team never gets anywhere close to medaling.
