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.

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!!

This was my favorite of the Games.

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

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 can feel the heat from here

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.

Man, that was a killer workout.

These sleds have got to be insanely tough by the end!

would be nice if they put what the workout was in the description of the video

Я смотреть устал, не то что они там бегают )))) красавчики!!!

Crossfit seems so fun! idk why everyone hates it, its looks refreshing to do something like that rather than just being in a gym

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.

This is BRUTAL!!!

Did you do any type of exercising before crossfit(body building, power lifting, running, swimming)?

Damn.......i love this guy's build. Sooo hot!

Very very Nice video 👍💯👍 I am SABI Kuwait to Very very thanks Sir G

ขนาดดู ยังเหนื่อยแทน

15:47 ohh man I know that feeling and it is called suffering!

Went to the crossfit yesterday for the first time.... maybe someday i will be doing these.. lol

Holy shit, this is really difficult stuff....Respect

how heavy is it?

Unbelievable fitness game level

Hatt off for all competitors

todo eso me apasiona❤💪👍

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

This one looks brutal!! But a fun one.

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.

Вот это мощь

does anybody know the diameter of the rope?

Perfeito

Insane. What is the song in the 11 m of the video?

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.

was that furious pete?

I watched this smoking a cigarette.. i think im gonna quit now

WHat do the numbers on their shirts represent?

Respect

Yes i understand your perspective, i didn't comment to put down Crossfit. I actually like it myself,i' have a similar training philosophy.

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.

@Muaythai81 is on point.

Impresive

Crossfit games reminds me of a nfl combine

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

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

Is that 2 inch rope?

awesome

Does anyone know what type of shoes they are wearing?

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.

What made a heat got 1.2M views and the very next only 34k?

2 blue (45lb) Rogue bumper plates= 90 and the sled is 185 so... 275lb total

Cê ta Loko jacaré

how heavy is that sled?

nice video

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.

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.

How much do those sleds weigh?

hacen doping?

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.

Well that escalated quickly.

smooth criminal

What up with the rope climb? Is more of rope swing and leg push. Please someone explain. Thank you.

whats the song at 02:18?

None of them was built for endurance, for strength only. They held out pretty well tho.

Very nice game and exersais

What's this music in 2:00 ?

I'd like to see them all do Tough Mudder.

whats up with the dubstep hell yea lol this sht gets me pumped

Did anyone notice the song in the background from 2:00 ... it's Michael Jackson's Smooth criminal! 😅

What's the name of the second song? I know is a Michael Jackson song but which one?

Yeah thats no secret,but many think they are all natural

Now try it with 15 lbs of body armor, a pistol belt and an AR 15. The Tactical Games!

they put on two 45 lbs plates on top of that + pretty sure this is day 3 of the competition...muscle fatigue sets in

Вот они сердечники

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.

Is doping tested ?

Me gusta mucho quiero competir como me puedo comunicar para ingresar

Sir ya game kha hota ha

i agree with this post completely.

I'm a Kenyan who can do this things in an easy way!

Nice

proud of u alllllll

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.

Special Olympics at its best. All these men are winners!

I can't do this but interesting 😍😍

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

So at school in gym we have "gymnastics" 5 weeks a year and one of the things we are tested in is rope climbing, I have last tryed it almost a year ago and I made it in prity good time but I used legs, so I cored 5/6. I can do 12 pull and I'm in good shape in general could I manage the rope climbe without using legs or do I have to have stronger uper body (if so, how strong do I have to be)? pardon my grammar (english is not my mother tongue)

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.

Just isn’t the same without Sean woodland’s commentary

Why no t shirt ??

Sirra

اقسم بالله ابطال في معنة الكلمة

It looks like him off American pie

this competion is so complicated

Not being funny, but they look as if there putting absolutely no effort in at all

CrossFit before becoming a meme
