The CrossFit Games really needs to be streamed on KZbin.

[@wil_leighton1618]

T S , good old days

[@CS2architecture]

Agreed. Facebook's 720p resolution felt disgusting if you've been used to 1440p, or even 4k resolution, lately. Not to mention the distracting emojis that litter the bottom of the Facebook live videos. Please let KZbin stream CrossFit Games next year

[@emma_freerider]

It was a pain in the ass trying to.watch them live.

[@forsnowboard]

It was streamed on YT for the rest of the world, only not in the US

[@MathieuP]

It begins NOW ! :D

[@adbelrivera9072]

I gotta admit when I first heard about CrossFit about 6 years ago I really didn’t like it, I was more into bodybuilding. And thought it was a joke because of the internet memes. But the more I learn from the sport and the athletes the more I felt in love with it. Just like any other sport CrossFit is a lifestyle, to be a better version of yourself everyday in every single posible way.

[@JSway-fp4mj]

Adbel Rivera I was the exact same way bro! I just started CrossFit at 44 years old after 25 years of bodybuilding. I love it!

[@jhanau9]

Very well articulated comment (captured my thoughts on it as well). I was like you until I really understood it (the community aspect and the lifestyle aspect). Now I'm hooked on it - and especially watching the games. It's fun to take in and see what they can do.

[@TheDave000]

A better version of yourself... with less healthy joints.

[@lawnman77]

I love Crossfit, I love the concept of it. It is amazing! What I don't like about Crossfit is it needs to clean its act up!! The Tour De France has a terrible reputation with drugs, the Olympics also does. Both the cycling body and the IOC don't do nearly enough testing. Crossfit is in its infancy and as I love the sport, I would hate for it to be tainted like cycling has (Lance Armstrong). I personally feel drug use is rife in the Crossfit games. Please sort it out, if you do, this sport will be monolithic!!

[@adbelrivera9072]

TheDave000 if that’s your opinion I respect it, but “we” need to understand that one thing is doing a sport, any sport as a professional and giving your all to it, vs doing it as a hobby to get all of the benefits you can get from it. Because if that’s the argument then every sport takes something from you. Look at Boxin, how many boxers suffer from brain and cognitive problems for getting hit in the head. Look at bodybuilding how many of them suffer from liver, kidney and heart problems. Look at basketball how many athletes retire because they suffer an injury. UFC, baseball, surfing etc... every sport has its risks doing it has a professional or as a hobby. If your referring to the porcentaje of risk of any sport then all of them are different but the risk still exists. So because of the risks do people stop doing sports??? No! We just do it the safest way that we know and can, to get all of the benefits from it. Because doing something is better than doing nothing because your afraid of the risks.

[@C_Ross88]

Fingers crossed that we get a bonus "Road to the Games" - post games edition! I don't know how I can wait a year for another documentary!!!!

[@scotchfike21]

Yes.... that would be awesome. Or a behind the scenes of the 2018 Games

[@Fedjul]

Yes… that or actually releasing the documentary earlier, whichever works

[@sunseasnatches8462]

I think we are .... Heber said there wasn’t any more Pre games so fingers crossed

[@krashdesdunes3504]

We Are CROSSFIT !

[@aligboyakasha]

The documentaries are ultimately more interesting to me than the actual games.

[@1themattymoose]

Top games this year and some cool new events. Please get the Games off Facebook as a streaming provider and back onto KZbin, Facebook's platform doesn't seem mature or established enough so it made it hard to watch and stream Thanks to all that made it happen and my great admiration to all that had the grit to compete.

[@SeanRoutledgeOfficial]

Agreed.

[@hugoholland9769]

Matthew Browne the crossfit games website streamed live as well and worked better

[@SeanRoutledgeOfficial]

Hugo Holland I think this was still a direct stream from Facebook though?

[@hugoholland9769]

Sean Routledge it was a direct stream, but all the videos are still available

[@1themattymoose]

Hugo Holland the website worked, but on mobile it wasn't particularly good. Casting to TV wasn't available. This is what I meant by Facebook not being a mature platform. Switching between devices would mean you lost your place and starting an event from the beginning wasn't possible on the FB stream. When it was on KZbin all of these things were available and that was two years ago.

[@Hussein_Nur]

2:06 The Beautiful and fierce Sara Sigmundsdóttir. Saddened by her withdrawal. Wishing her the best of luck.

[@PainterFRO]

Bridges finishing the Yoke carry on that hurt knee was awesome! Congrats the Fraser and Toomey! Horvath was amazing this weekend. Hated Sarah had to withdraw..Fraser and Vellner are lucky to have finished after those falls on the net.. Can't wait to see some behind the scenes videos!

[@mdr8661]

Stunning. Did my first wod 4 years ago and still get excited everyday before the workout. If you’re thinking about trying, just do yourself a favor and go.

[@taniavieira6]

Their choices are seen as extreme. Their abilities as exceeding nature. Yet their lives are characterised by near constant disappointment. And effort to build a foundation for later success. To be worthy representatives of us all, they must know defeat and humble themselves to its teachings. Continuously they test, and test, and test again. For in the testing lies the answer to the question. How will you be better tomorrow? Only those who repeatedly ask and accept the answer, who continue to recognise miss steps as opportunity will realize their true potential. Fear and ego will stop many as they mistake failure for weakness. It is through their efforts that we come to understand how our own limitations are contrived. That we come to understand what’s possible. That we come to understand what we can choose to be. Better. For winning is not defined by medals but actions. By perseverance. By character. By effort. It does not mean you are unbeatable. But rather, that you have been beaten and continue to rise.

[@ScottLRoyal]

Thanks for posting this. Madeline Sturts finish of 20th , after previously finishing 39th and 35th was huge. Effort is not to be underestimated.

[@raulescalera5541]

I really love every single video crossfit makes after the games.

[@Merco81]

As much as I hope more people can challenge Fraser... the guy broke his back and recovered before getting into Crossfit and dominating the games 3 years in a row. These are the recovery stories i like to hear about. Hoping to see more from his Social Media in the future.

[@Weeping-Willow-]

Brian East of course he broke his back he has no deadlift form and does everything wrong

[@fungi421]

You know he broke his back doing olympic weightlifting right, before he knew about CF??... He was Junior National Champion

[@Merco81]

I'm sure he knows and doesn't care.... trolls are trolls.

[@wolfhunter6711]

Im Bigger Your ignorance must be pure bliss!

[@willosborne5590]

Goosebumps 👍🏼

[@jacoolivier9814]

Bump gooses

[@josermoreno424]

This are the kind of things that changes the world, how many of us will go out motivated to go farther and push others to reach higher goals. Congrats to the RCF Games 2018 and everyone involved in them!

[@rajeshkaran7800]

Laura Horvath the Hungarian Crossfit Champion 2 years in a row finally made the 2nd Fittest Woman in the World ,So proud and Happy for her ,finally got the recognition She truly deserves 👍

[@sarahdugan6590]

Top notch by the hardworking media staff at CFG! Thank you to all the hard work you put in to bring us photographs, video and other media content...this outstanding video is - I'm sure - only the beginning! Games like 2018 and videos like this make me proud to be a part of the broader CrossFit community...

[@JoseSerrano-zb4mi]

I just found this recently and even though it's 6 years later I close my eyes listen, it just gets my mind right.

[@jimmallia7674]

Definately one of the most beatiful sports video on KZbin

[@rebnae]

This was incredible! Thanks for putting into words what so many of us feel in how CrossFit has positively impacted our lives, our characters, and our being.

[@JohnDoe-rq9hr]

Rebecca Naeve your crossfit trainer hit on you yet?

[@rebnae]

John Doe nope, just trolls on the internet.

[@JohnDoe-rq9hr]

Rebecca Naeve looks like you need more training then

[@wolfhunter6711]

Rebecca Naeve Ha! You crushed the little guy.

[@19966747]

Literally building a sport in this generation can be one of the toughest things ever. But Dave Castro is taking Crossfit to new levels every year. I just wish this sport ends up being of the most viewed sports all over the world. These athletes are on a different league. Guys that deadlift 600lbs are extremely bulky but then look at them. Rowing for 3 hours. Gymnastics, weightlifting, army drills, swimming, running- you name it, they have it under their forte. This year was amazing.

[@clubinsky33]

Hope the other guys really hammer the training next year, because it really does take the suspense out seeing one guy dominate. The ladies competition is going to be on fire next year with 4 with a good shot at winning in Davisdottir, Toomey, Hovarth, Saunders and 3 or 4 others with an outside shot (Sigmunsdottir, Thorisdottir, Greene... Bazinet...).

[@arttagboy]

clubinsky33 I think you’re spot on with Fraser 4peating. Personally I think the only way Davidsdottir gets that 3rd crown is if TCT fucks up big time, or she finds a new coach. Bergeron is good but it seems like he isn’t attacking her weak points the same way Fraser does, and she’s not so strong she can just put up huge numbers to win. What do you think Sigmundsdóttir will do, in the sense of is she gonna come back with that killing intent finally or is just gonna coast the rest of her career? I hope this injury doesn’t destroy her mentally

[@tigerjohns0n]

Kari Pearce is coming in hot as well

[@rtcharge]

Get it live on tv all of it. Or on here pls

[@a.Jason.official]

Can we get a real highlight video?

[@TheEvilgranny]

Bro, chill. its been 2 days. Show some gratitude instead.

[@drew4324]

This video was put together by some one who stayed up all night compiling 4 days of footage for us to watch today. I can only assume this is sarcasm or trolling.

[@jacobcalderon4828]

Please

[@jarrettlink6099]

This. Unless you watch it live, they make it incredibly hard to figure out what happened.

[@ben10pa]

Drew Thomas that's cool but don't call this video a highlights video...

[@angeladalessandro266]

This made me tear up a bit. I so respect and appreciate everyone of these athletes for their hard work and determination. ❤️

[@iamthecatalyst.]

MAKE MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS…. I used to watch this everyday before my class to get motivated…. I was expecting there to be a follow up every year after the games ….but this this seems to have been a one-off…. But it’s REALLY good …. You should take this concept and create an inspirational/motivational video after every games….kinda like an ´after-video’ to a music festival…. I think it’ll play well with ur audience…. Hope to see one soon….

[@paulroos7946]

It's just completely amazing to see how far crossfit has came I've done it on my own and with my brother since I first saw the 2012 games

[@MayamikoZo]

This is brilliant. The script is so amazing. Such a beautiful message especially in these uncertain times.

[@TheTestyboy]

Still listening to the voice. Still motivates me every single time, so I continue to rise. Again and Again.

[@rodm49]

Every time I watch this = Pumped up, humbled, inspired, choked up, and feeling fearless all at the same time 💪🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼✊🏼

[@AntonandSinan]

The only sport that got me moving and STICKING WITH IT! Love it!

[@lookolol]

The best games ever made!!!! What an amazing weekend omfg

[@tpamaster]

Such a great video. I am so happy I got to watch the games in person this year, such an amazing experience

[@tommyday24]

Wow awesome production, just a day later!!! Amazing media Team CF has.

[@4secondfuse]

Matossian, Oldroyd, Cannon, Moore & Sawyers - you have outdone yourself yet again 👏 An amazing way to cap off this years games

[@lamalditaverdad9243]

Horvath will become the female Fraser

[@antoniorodriguez8632]

Tia will

[@almogashkenazi3039]

The rookie rich froning

[@bweb6]

Fraser and Tia had an amazing Games, but for me, the standout was Laura Horvath. I've been following her career here in Europe for a while, and she's got such amazing potential.

[@lawnman77]

Agreed. She is also very marketable as well. She is bloody gorgeous! sponsers will snap her up. I only have 1 criticism . . . . . She doesnt need those powerful legs! I want to change my chicken legs for hers! Can we swap!? :-D

[@cathouneige]

yet... we thought Annie Thorisdottir reached her limit...

[@thiagolopes123]

OMG!! This is amazing.

[@adrianaibarra4302]

Sean's voice is just so nice and calm, really good video :) this games were AMAZING! Sad that Brent didn't podium, but happy that Höberg came with all he got since not going to the Games last year. Already waiting for the movie!!!

[@AdamCauston]

Great video. Just wish I could have watched the events via the games website. Tried several times on multiple days with multiple devices but the videos never played. Just bring the video feed back to KZbin.

[@indahnovitasari4042]

I will watch this video everytime before I hit the gym. I was learn about crossfit things at regulary gym by myself, some people always asked me, why don't you just focus on body building? and I said "Nah, everyone can do that, but this (crossfit), you gonna love it :)"

[@Rufio0618]

Sean Woodland, the voice of CrossFit! His "Fittest in History" call for Froning winning his 4th championship still gives me goosebumps.

[@Qwerty_789]

Crossfit... It gets too much hate. These athletes work so hard.

[@Weeping-Willow-]

eric yam they work so hard destroying every bone and joint in their body

[@wolfhunter6711]

eric yam Yes, a lot of jealous underachievers out in the world.

[@Qwerty_789]

[@stollerfrank1194]

So impressiv to what human beings are capable to do and to achive. Very high respect to every athlete at the games or not.

When is the documentary coming out!!!!!

[@MrTMS71972]

Best video EVER

[@FlatBedLife717]

nice that the narrator is expressing the sacrifices of the real warriors who serve our country. Although crossfitters are magnificient athletes, this is over the top exxageration on what crossfit is. Crossfit is definitely about yourself, even crossfit teams its the drive and ambition of ones self to win. Just to humble you Crossfit advocates and not let you get too big of an ego. Gorified athletes are what you are!
