Iceland has a few peculiarities when it comes to names. First of all, Icelanders don't have family names. Secondly, one cannot take up the spouse's last name upon marriage. Thirdly, when naming a child, one has to stick to a limited list of names. How come this little island has these seemingly curious rules? Unlike most other Western countries Icelanders do not use family names but use a patronymic or matronymic reference. One's name reflects the immediate father or mother and does not refer to the person's historic family lineage. Although Iceland shares a common cultural heritage with the Scandinavian countries of Norway, Denmark and Sweden, it is only Iceland who continues to use their traditional naming system formerly common in all of Scandinavia. The last name of a male Icelanders therefore usually ends in the suffix -son (“son”) and that of female Icelanders in -dóttir (“daughter”). For example, Iceland's current president is Ólafur Ragnar Grímsson, his first name is Ólafur Ragnar and his father's first name was Grímur. Ólafur's daughters are thus Guðrún Tinna Ólafsdóttir and Svanhildur Dalla Ólafsdóttir. Current Prime Minister Jóhanna Sigurðardóttir is Jóhanna, daughter of Sigurður. The patronymic reference is the traditional and most common form used in Iceland, but nowadays in times of gender equality one has the freedom of choosing the matronym instead. Popular football player Heiðar Helguson, for instance, goes by his mother's name: Helguson, son of Helga.
I thought they kept calling that woman Captain David's daughter. Like damn they dont know her name 😂😂 but she really does have an interesting last name.
There are two girls well known in Crossfit with similar last names I thought the same thing, I was always confused about that lol the other girl is Thorisdotter
Can I just say - those that mock these athletes referencing PED's; just watch and respect the talent and hard work they put in to get to this level. They are born freaks of nature with or without any enhancement both mentally and physically.
These people are in amazing shape. The bike by itself is freaking tough. I can't believe people are actually in the audience. I am glad I don't have family doing crossfit games haha.
Why the f*@k do you keep putting the winner of the event in the thumb nail? Spend the morning trying to avoid spoilers, and you cant start the video without finding out who won.
Yeah, you are. They're literally just belly-flopping onto the floor. I've heard Crossfit form for a lot of exercises is bad but this is next level bad.
Im not a crossfitter but I have been a gymnast and Kipping is an exercise used in Gymnastics all the time not only as a way to generate movement and momentum but as a way to improve grip strength holding on to a ring whilst moving is far harder to do that holding yourself static. It is no surprise that gymnasts have some of the best physiques of all athletes its not wrong its just different to what a conventional gym goer would do. And believe me Ive been in Gyms and I watch people and almost everyone has terrible form.
@@carlislefindlay1834 It isn't a sport LOL. I am not a hater, but to say crossfit is a sport is ludicrous. It is just a bunch of exercises that are metcon and have been around for a long time. Crossfit is just the commercial branding to garner popularity. We did this type of stuff when I wrestled in high school and college.
Not exactly. If we didn't have correct form, us who do crossfit would have been injured long ago or during this game or disqualified. Some of moves require certain techniques and forms different from exercises that non crossfitters do. Kipling, muscle ups..look sloppy but actually help with speed and form during our wide. If we have incorrect form, we wouldn't be as strong as we are even able to compete.😊
Awesome event to watch while drinking my double Belgian-choc, double-cream shake, paired with my skin-on cumin/pepper marinated fried chicken and garlic buttered toasted rolls...yumm
If you do these exercises to train for other events, then what training do you do for this? A lot of doctors will be busy soon. Most of the bikes were wrongly set up.
I just realized the only reason crossfit still exists as a "sport" is because female athletes look amazing with a strong core, back, and shoulders. That's it. That's why 90% of us clicked on the thumbnail. Because strong women are gorgeous.
Crossfit women needs a glute circuit. I suggest front loaded movements, which require glutes engagement. kettlebell front squats, kneel to lunge get up, split squat deadlifts alternating or rotating [KB's or sand dufflebags], side lunge deadlift alternating, sandbag sumo squats etc.

What's the point of the leg raise if they just use the momentum from arching that far back? Was that the right way to do burpees, slamming your body to the ground? But that overhead squats are impressive tho..
I'm curious as to why many of them have small chest? I'm a female and I'm getting very into weight lifting and strength training. Is it the reduced body fat that decreases breast mass?
@@claudiadavis7161 I can criticize whoever I want to especially if they represent the professionals of the "sport". If this bastardized form of exercise is the norm it's no wonder CrossFit has so many detractors. You try to use childish insults and you think you're "Cool", you must be a middle school kid.
swing legs to rings. stop saying there's core involved...very minimal. It's mostly swinging your hip and letting the weight of your legs provide the momentum.
If you swing with normal speed, that doesn't require much of muscle and power but in this case, for the sake of winning, they have to continously swing with high speed and to do that you have to generate a lot of power from abs and hip flexor.
No, when they say calories they’re talking about Kilocalories (or kilojoules), I.e. a calculation of power output. The more power you can put into the bike, the faster you’ll hit the target.
@_Bhalf0rd You guys are both right. Calories burnt is tracked independently with the machines. On the other hand, an athlete with more body mass can usally produce more power at the expense of oxygen. But the lighter athlete can produce power more efficiently. That's why track sprinters are overall "jacked" and long distance runners are "thin". This is just my opinion ofcourse. You dont have to be a dick about it. The other guy was just giving his opinion as well...
So did you do both? Watch grass grow and read crap comments? Because you definitely read comments. If you didn’t watch grass grow then your statement is false 🤓
I completely misunderstood the name of the event hahahaha I thought it was one of those pranks where they put pros in against amateurs, hence "Ringers" lmao
The bike requires a constant amount of work to complete a repetition. Just calculate the total work done convert the energy equivalent to calories burned and voila. It doesn't matter what your body weight is, it takes the same amount of energy for each of the participants. But keep in mind this doesn't mean it takes the same effort for each of them!
way back in high school which is a long time ago , used to do weights , and i couldn't help thinking that there has got to be something else to go with just lifting weights ,some kind of running as well as maybe how far u kick football or something like that , and it was right in front of me the whole time , just put everything in it and call it crossfit ..there done ...
Is it just me or are they doing those burpies wrong. There're curling their bodies up from the push up position instead of doing proper push ups. Maybe that's the way women do them?
Why is it idiotic to go watch a CrossFit competition if you are a fan of that type of event .. it’s no different than watching people run around a field trying to catch a ball
@@jakelamb4274absolutely. I’ve always said that thousands of people going to a stadium to watch people kick or throw a ball around was a bit weird. I’d rather watch this and marvel at just the pure fitness.
