Who the heck thought that was a good way to end this workout? Just sat through an 18 minute video and you slap together the most haphazard anti-climatic ending possible

[@CompleteCommando]

Completely agree! Such a poor ending! Wanted to see the race for 2nd too

[@telford32]

That's crossfit for you...working hard but failing on the simple things.

[@1articoli]

So they couldn't keep the video going until at least Sarah, or maybe all 6, finished??

[@home.gymfattofit]

Why didn't you show us the whole competition??

[@ObieForceGaming]

What the heck was that ending edit??

[@theghostofversailles9908]

What do you expect it’s CrossFit inc.

[@solleon4568]

Right ! I thought it would continue after the ad or something 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@elric9992000]

Holy crap, the edit on the ending was terrible. I could live with the occasional skips and freezes (could be a local problem, after all), but to have the ending chopped up like that is shameful.

[@nuffflavor]

You are 100 percent correct !

[@gagatube]

7 minutes watching paint dry while they are on the treadmills, then it gets into a contest, then BAM "Somebody won and there were some other people in it, bye!" 🚀

[@thinkforyourself2109]

Amazing fitness levels! Inspirational. I just wonder how the judge can count the jump rope. It was a blur.

[@dmitrit81]

Amazing

I just came here to say, I love that Sansa Stark is competing in this! For the north!

[@operamini7513]

Wow can't recognise!

[@WHOLETTHECATSOUTMEOW]

What was the actual event? 1 mile run, overhead squats, GHD sit ups, double unders, SDHP and then the box overs, but what are the actual rep numbers?

[@BernhardKohli]

would be great to see the wod as a pic in pic

[@LuvJones023]

Very motivating, I think I’ll get in shape now!!!!

[@justaguy9776]

By the time they were jumping rope, my old @ss would still be at the treadmill.

[@heretoannoyu4706]

Love Katrin 😍

[@chronicallytiredmedstudent]

For those of you who don't read the description: 1-mile run 50 overhead squats (135/95 lb.) 100 GHD sit-ups 150 double-unders 50 sumo deadlift high pulls (135/95 lb.) 100 box jump overs (24/18 in.)

[@thinkforyourself2109]

I think I`d be done halfway through the overhead squats. Their endurance is what`s remarkable about these athletes.

[@Unflushablepiss]

some strong ladies!

[@flejmie123]

The editing on this video was kinda wierd...

[@jvcastillo7646]

I’m a big fan of CrossFit and every time I do it, once I hit the 15 min mark on the WOD I start to talk to myself and having thoughts that this shit is really stupid and then after sucking it up and finishing it, I’m like fuck yea definitely doing another WOD tomorrow.

[@kamelzenad3852]

They run very slowly, it is a bizarre event

[@user-di6lq1mz7e]

Лучшие из лучших!

[@LeviHeatonIII]

You guys desperately need a more professional camera crew and production team. It was horrible last week at the semi-finals. The boggest blunder that comes to mind is Haley and Brooke going head to head for second place while the camera man AND EVERYBODY WATCHING AT HOME is watching Tia rolling around on the floor after completing here event! Horrible production quality! And based on this video it has been this way for a long time because the production work for this video is just as bad as what we are still getting!

[@jimbob4456]

How many are juiced?

[@student1979oct]

Probably a few, Crossfit is getting better at testing the top performers more often, but inevitably some will get through. If they finish on the podium and it looks like they'll be competing again the next year they get tested randomly during the year. Event winners all get tested right after. Podium finishers all get tested right after as well.

[@aldrinkhumala4091]

[@johnpontes812]

I dont believe in crossfit because of things like push ups sit ups pullups even squats. You not finishing a defined distance body dimensions change thing drastically and even some people lockouts are not defineable because of bowed elbows often due to their arm shape. They should have to lift the weights do loading races.

[@johothechristmaselve7001]

nice jawlines

[@natepencils4355]

Only Americans would put together and sponsor an event where people are literally just working out in a gym. Sit ups? Are you f’ing kidding me? A skill is what I’m missing here. Working out is not a skill.

[@jorger5615]

so why dont you do your own events genius set it up sponsor one stop talking smack about americans if your so concerned about these awsome athletes make it safer for them. these ladies are very skilled.

[@shar3882]

So I take it that this type of event is only open to female athletes?

[@TheFitDragon]

triathlete workout :D

[@williamhufnagel8790]

I don't know if this is true, but it seems like Sara S. gets upset and in her head..

[@THEREALZENFORCE]

"Only Six Athletes in the World Had Finished This Event" :-) and now facts Yet zero crossfitter in the World would score 9000 points in decathlon Zero crossfitter in the World would squat 900lbs. Zero crossfitter in the World would finish a marathon under 2 hours and 10 minutes. Zero pure crossfit athlete only would be able to do a full exercices run on gymnastics rings. And most )probably over 90% crossfit athletes would struggle to run a kilometer in under 3 minutes 04 seconds which is the minimum time at French sports universities to have 10 out of 20 points to pass from 1st year to 2nd year sport science university and sub 2 minutes 45 seconds is would be literally another galaxy to reach for crossfit athletes. The WR is under 2 minutes 15 seconds. So fit crossfit makes you ;-)

[@felixdeboer5814]

yet the guy/girl that squats 900lbs wouldn’t be able to do this workout, the people who finish a marathon in under 2:10 wouldn’t be able to do the sumo dl high pulls or the overhead squats, i can say this for every single one of your arguments. you are missing the entire point of crossfit, it is not being specialized in running or powerlifting its being fit in as much aspects as possible, with this in mind you can’t train for a 900lbs squat or a fast marathon

[@felixdeboer5814]

often you don’t even know what you have to do for the competition until a day before or even the same day, this way you have to be ready for anything;)

[@THEREALZENFORCE]

@@felixdeboer5814 Ready for anything ? Most crossfitters i know were less ready than me and other national and international level sports science university athletes. At Crossfit games crossfitters squat 450 lbs that is less than i and other heavyweight athletes bench pressed, plus. And none of the crossfitters were top 10% in over 30 disciplines at elite university. That get destroyed in gymnastics, track and field, judo, kickboxing, swimming, climbing.

[@THEREALZENFORCE]

@@felixdeboer5814 Where are the crossfitters that run 1000 meters in less than 3 minutes to less 2 minutes 25 seconds, also climb 7a to 9a routes on climbing walls, swim 200 meters 4 style in less than 3 minute 10 seconds, triple jump over 11meters64cm, do full routines in gymnastics on horizontal and parallel bars, beat 99% of opponents in Judo, 99% in Kickboxing and bench press between 320 to 480lbs ? There wasn't one crossfitter at French Sports universities i know of and you cannot name one who comes close to the above.

[@THEREALZENFORCE]

@@felixdeboer5814 you "this in mind you can’t train for a 900lbs squat or a fast marathon" 260lbs Heavyweight French Aviron Olympian of my sports university : - Shuttle-Run-Test level of an French national 5000 meter runner - Record breaking rowing strength on the machine - brown belt judoka beating black belts due to his sheer strength combined with almost as good technique - Over 7a routes in climbing - very good swimmer - Sub 2 minutes 50 seconds in 1000 meters - did full routines in gymnastics, horizontal bar and parallel bar. - weightlifting near top powerlifter level - top 1% in most athletic disciplines at sports university - Olympic Aviron rower at Olympic games None of your crossfit athletes comes close hence you make your own crossfit games with average to low level times and performances, no way neat Olympians.
