    Watching Brent fidget with the seam in the table as he thinks and responds is the most relatable thing about this. Great Podcast!

    Most of the research in "How bad do you want it" was done in my lab. Happy to discuss it on your podcast if you like. It's very relevant to CrossFit

    here to throw in my 2 cents regarding pain tolerance! (psychotherapist mode activated) it can definitely be taught. as you both mentioned, it has everything to do with intrinsic motives and exposure. also, appraisal of pain itself is very helpful in developing the skill of walking towards it vs shying away from it. however, people who are more innately capable of enduring pain are usually folks who experience achievement motivation from a young age. this is usually - but not always - related to responsibility and perfectionism :)
    thank you, Brent for such an enlightening experience. and huge thanks to the TTT team for this content. you guys are the best.

    It sort of seems like CFHQ is just SO resistant not only to the evolution of the sport from this nostalgia-driven compulsion to keep it how it was "back when..." But also to being able to admit they didn't get it right the first time and are willing to admit that. Boz did a great job trying to express that sentiment in a recent podcast (can't remember offhand which), but they're still so bad at consistency and putting the onus on lousy judging to elevate the sport. The free-for-all only works in small grassroots things; systems need to be in place when things get bigger

    just saying, lot of 2 foot dunkers actually... really depends how you are trying to dunk and type of dunk and situation (game-"fast break" vs dunk contest). Virtually the same as Vball jumping Brent just described.

    Volume levels are terrible.
    And also why those american hosts are always so obsessed with their own voice? Stop interrupting!

      Why do people like you need to come into comments to negatively criticize other people’s attempt at doing good work and providing content to the community?
      You could easily not tune in or keep your opinion to yourself, but you feel the need to be heard.
      Maybe it’s the same for us.
      And maybe you could learn how to phrase things in a way that makes your opinion less obnoxious and more practical for us to improve your listening experience. Instead of trying to make us feel bad about our work or stereotyping our entire country.
