#CrossFitGames

[@marcusquidenus4948]

Did this Workout today myself. :) Reduced the weight on each barbell movement by 20kg/45lbs. It took me 12:00 to complete the workout, but it was awesome. One of the cooles WODs I've ever done! Some years ago, (I think it was in 2014) this video was one of those, that inspired me to start with CrossFit. And today I finally did it myself. Its like a milestone for me. I love it. :)

[@cole.s1442]

I would love to see this re-done at the Games. Maybe even with heavier weights and/or more reps.

[@clesiarodrigues6412]

Nunca me esquecerei desse vídeo, quando eu fui fazer o curso de Crossfit , e colocaram enquanto aguardávamos o início da aula, e ficamos todos alí sentados e babando. Esse dia foi bom de mais, e esse vídeo é o mais top do Cross... valeu galera do treino intenso, foi bom , nesse dia estávamos eu e Bruno Cunha meu parça, no curso em São José dos Campos, top D+, na Crossfit Vale

[@bbrief]

Great camera work and editing

[@giomindstrip7918]

im tired

[@carcamanoloco]

This video made me start training CrossFit. Thanks Josh.

[@said-khamzatyakhiyev6304]

Leandro Azambuja me too

[@mckeyb907]

Yeah for sure. I wouldn't be disappointed if any of them placed first to be honest, they are beasts among men. Salo doesn't quit, Bridges got a crazy engine especially for a dude his size, and Froning got genes like Hercules

[@realtemplarmusic]

Name of song ?

[@Chunk746]

The name of the song is Pounding Tensions by killer dubstep

[@w4rk44]

note that, during the games, the space between each exercise was vastly bigger, than in this video, which is an interesting point according to Bridges time and result.

[@JustinKhoe]

It doesn't even look like a chipper for him... makes it look so easy

[@vikingblood81]

This was amazing!! But, a question for the group (especially anyone who plans to judge the open/Regionals) - would you count his reps on the OHS? Depth looked very close (which in itself is a skill...not going a centimeter further than needed). Again, not asking to be "that guy," just truly interested in other peoples' take on this, because any one of us (who judge) could find ourselves in a situation like this. Either way, this was inspirational to say the least, excellent job!

[@4thepeeps1]

Not everyone's take. Because they weren't regular box jumps, they were over the box jumps. The movement was to go from one side, to the other, by jumping over the box. No hip extension was required.

[@FitbyNatureTraining]

I realize that now, haha. Makes more sense. I simply wasn't familiar with this event and am used to the typical "full extension" on box jumps.

[@PatCFLabat]

Perfect form in everything. Wow

[@idoaricha1]

I'M TIRED JUST BY LOOK AT IT.... RESPECT!!!

[@Ebvardh]

Wow, his overhead squat form is tight as hell.

[@theoriginalliquid]

man this guy is a machine, breathing heavy just watching this!

[@melissagranados8609]

Holy crap was that first bar a phat bat? Damn!

[@DungeonWorkouts]

Inspiring stuff... and great work on the edit Heber...

[@aurelianutube]

God damn! It seems like you've got some potential! I'm good at spotting it. Start doing CrossFit challenges. With your talent, I'm pretty sure you can start right away, without any specific training for it. I have a good feeling about this.

[@nutritionmustache]

Squats never broke parallel

[@juandiegoviecco]

@vikingblood81 same question here. I mean I totally admire this guy. This is insane but doesn't e had to reach full hip extension on the box jumps? Or I'm just being lame

[@alphacause]

Just watching this workout was so exhausting that I wanted to vomit, and I was just sitting completely sedentary in this chair. This is just super human!

[@benjaminviolet9598]

What you guys didnt consider is that in the stadium rich had to walk a way longer distance which took more than 30 seconds which is the difference between their record, so as I explained no record for this guy

[@harsescramblelegend]

this guy is a beast rich froning better watch out. With his 2:02 fran and 6:36 chipper the guy looks unstoppable. If the 2013 crossfit games have a higher intensity and more workouts josh will win and if its more strenght biased then rich might have the edge. However rich doesnt have the hunger that josh has.

[@kiriatroestch6371]

Perfect!!

[@ArminKhanpour]

at the games they did that event after the rope sled which was exhausting. he is fresh here though...

[@blackrooney2010]

I'm sooooo trying this.

[@leadpoison101]

The harder you work the luckier you get! Very nice job!

[@paulostsilo1]

he is not performing box jumps, its a different exercise called jumps over box.

[@DaveGreider]

I totally agree. Froning did this workout after a week of grueling multiday WODs

[@77quiqui]

es espectacular

[@hotmojo1]

Brutal. Horsepower for days.

[@floats70]

Are you not suppose to open your hips & fully extend for box jumps?

[@JDMCam87]

BEASTLY

[@AuthenticSelfGrowth]

Fucking insane. Whole body blasted in under 7 minutes

[@IRISHLAXER77]

Damn Josh Bridges is so cut its ridiculous, This man is ripped.

[@morc160]

This man is the beast!

[@krunion]

BEAST MODE

[@louislubin9022]

good work!

[@NaturalKindsOfGains]

Straight beast!

[@Simbakamp]

WTF!!!!! Respect

[@yergui87]

this reminds me when Zuzana Light makes massive exercises relentlessly ... only this is more heavy!.

[@JohnDollenz]

¿Cuál es el nombre del Tema?

[@TheJekhill]

What a machine

[@Marty-Mart]

They are over the box jumps, no requirement for hip extension. He couldnt hopped straight over the box without touching it if he would have liked

[@melaniej.roberts206]

I'm a little confused. I thought on box jumps you had to stand up and lock the hips out for the rep to count. Also how come they drop the weight on some cleans and not others?

[@182gonza]

You have differents jump box, in this type, it's not necessary to stand still once you jump to the box, in my opinion is way harder than the other one. And if I'm not mistaken, are you asking why he dropped the bar in some exercises? It's because you have to start from the ground and its easier to do that than hold up the weight and put it on the ground.

[@IRISHLAXER77]

Thumbs up if your either a High School or College wrestler(like Josh Bridges did) who does CrossFit to get ripped and try to get that state title or that National title and crush all competition!

[@kadsonmaia3451]

Show man! !!!

[@MBeezey]

This dude is a monster

[@dksamurai]

Come on, someone must know the name of the song in the intro?

[@angelrivera3000]

very nice Job!!!

[@JmacJr0110]

This was very impressive. But Rich had done most of the games before. He didn't know about the work out until the day of. Had to walk twice the distance between the stations. That adds a good amount of time. And he finished around 7:06 or something like that. And has only improved since then. I'm sure His time would be faster if he prepared like Josh did.

[@dmls64]

Great !

[@exenruiz]

Excelente entrenamiento!

[@HeliaquimCosta]

Awesome

[@supermania69]

Strong dude.

[@2Boogeyman703]

Muy fresco y técnicamente

[@MrBeennjah]

Como se llama la cancion del video

[@PeterChowFTW]

damn that's fucking crazy. i don't care what excuses ppl bring up, this shit is straight beast

[@zadscreamo]

Awesome !

[@Mondetreking]

what´s the name of the thrid exercise?

[@rodrigoromero5073]

Thruster

[@TheAcneRemediesGuide]

*killer workout*

[@TheAcneRemediesGuide]

*Increase your bench press 50 lbs in 10 weeks.Speical price, order now.* *Go Here* = > *crossfit-workouts-training.blogspot.com*

[@kporras686]

I would like to have seen him run a triathlon and then do this. Impressive yes. But froning still more impressive considering the week he had.

[@rocogo]

My heart would explode in my chest!!!

[@Xavi05061992]

I want to do some CrossFit exercises

[@Fernandez908]

hay que hacer las maximas repeticiones que uno pueda?

[@lucassosa4396]

Generalmente se hacen 10 de cada uno o 12 depende es relativo al peso que le pongas y a tus condiciones

[@asdfghjklgym]

Anyone know what his trainers are called?

[@davidoso22]

una maquina el vaguito

[@guis2354]

I could never...

[@Lozzorien]

YEAH!!!

[@Piensiers]

the beast

[@DarwinBetancur]

insane!

[@zstephen1]

Also, this pseudo chipper has each "station", if you will, much closer together than the games does. This seems almost negligible but it can shave off plenty of seconds in the long run.

[@bersey444]

Now Thats a workout

[@dksamurai]

The same as in the beginning of the video... I want to know as well!!!

[@Mer134]

Anything can happen at the games

[@arielbarbosa7337]

What's the sound ?

[@lopu11]

awesome! but rich did it after already two days in the games i think! but your insane :) im pretyt small too and i really look up to you

[@AlejandroGarcia-ss8tc]

Exelent training!!! It's complete exercise

[@IwasHere134]

Soooo respect man! o_0 Like a robot..

[@HuskeHardcore]

Soldado Universal!

[@ramifakhry4049]

Brutality itself!

[@christianarturo2026]

Nice job..

[@latineigth]

El wn brigido!! A entrenar se ha dicho!!

[@MAsessa90]

those are box jumps over the box, you don't have to extend at the top. Would have given him no rep for many of those overhead squats though

[@duff123bass]

second 30 of the video, my coach should call to the ambulance for me xD

[@miguksimin]

gosh,, that muscle ups and press....

[@jujurock64]

So much for full hip extension on the box jump!!! NO REP NO REP NO REP

[@dgwear69]

such good flexibility and mobility on the overhead squats, even in flat(non olympic) shoes!!

[@mosesthompson2279]

Damn thats insane i just started crossfit training a few days ago this guy is awesome keep it up man
