[@lars7537]

Thanks, Andrew! These videos help me learn and, inevitably, are changing my thinking on “fitness.”

[@myrandareimerphysio]

Wow. Greg you are always so profound in the most simply explains ways "Realization that western medicine.. parametization of "health".... NOT independent variables.... Dependent variables of lifestyle choice. So profound. When said so simply it makes so much sense.

Brilliant video. Great job Hiller

‘Sporty Beth eats all the food over there’ - man that had me literally laughing out loud What a call

[@DavidGora]

Essentially sounds like he's following the plan that he himself set up. Crossfit and its principles don't need to be re-created. the business needs restructuring, but the message remains the same. If crossfit was wrong or didn't work, it would've been disproven by now and it hasn't. It's not a fad. Metfix only further amplies the same message but with a focus on nutrition.

[@jrgills]

Ive only visited around 5 affiliates…NONE of them ever talk about nutrition. Ever.

[@JohnSmith-zc3yc]

Some of our coaches are nutrition certified at our affiliate and have the ability to work with and provide insights

[@avera9636]

Here is the thing. The box is the get off the couch part. The get off the carbs part is SO FUCKING SIMPLE and occurs OUTSIDE the box. MOST refuse to get off the carbs. . . which is more important than getting off the couch in my opinion . . . and in the opinion of the CF pyramid. Nobody needs a seminar or coach to get off the carbs. It’s simply self-discipline. Nobody needs a zone diet to get off the carbs. Nobody needs a Glassman seminar to get off the carbs. So, while I despise the woke private equity running CF (into the ground), the Glassman’s secret sauce has been out in the open for 20 years. Get off the carbs!

[@pulkpuller]

@@avera9636 if you think get off the carbs is the nutrition key for a cf athlete or anyone training you are both ignorant, unqualified , and dangerous! no athlete with any success long term is off carbs ! stop lying

[@PhilWernette]

It would be interesting to hear more about what he views science as vs. the actual scientific method with double blind and controlled randomized trials and such. Greg traditionally has been more focused on a few case studies or individual experiences instead of controlled randomized trials, which doesn't translate to large populations. MetFix seems like a money grab right now. I'm not sold on MetFix compared to other well-established nutritional courses.

[@Muttonchop2000]

Met Fix is a not so great name…makes me think of a diet shake aimed at seniors.

[@jeremyeatworld807]

Oh well

[@saltysal8852]

MetRX was a big supplement brand

[@kylegreenley8950]

Everyone that is obsessed with CrossFit now. Completely forgets its roots.. the L1 was so eye opening and anything that Metfix puts out will only be even more eye opening and I think it could help this world get healthier.

[@areyoufit9047]

Greg has been through hell with companies suing. He reminds me of Trump 🇺🇸. Greg was right the whole time. Greg has videos over 10 years old on KZbin explaining diseases and quantitative/qualitative measures. Greg pushed CrossFit health and longevity. Remember get off the couch get off the carbs in case you don’t have time to watch his videos.

[@hardlylast]

Greg is the last person that I want to hear medical info from. I think he did a great thing bringing cf as a training methodology to the table but when it comes to medical science no thanks.

[@AB_1979]

Thank you Andrew for this video. Greg Glassman talks way over my head using words and phrases that distract me from the overall story and message. I’m not a smart person but thanks for explaining and simplifying it for me.

I’m surprised people are shocked that it’s not about the games. Greg never really liked the games. He was always about making mankind healthy, by using science and movement. The cf gym I go to is movement and health first before completions.

[@meestergoeloe758]

Hey Hiller, I’ve been a follower of your KZbin channel for a while now and really appreciate the informative content. I wanted to ask if you could do a deep dive into low back injuries, specifically disc issues like protrusion, herniation, or extrusion, and how people have returned to CrossFit after dealing with them-without surgery. I’m currently dealing with a disc protrusion at L5-S1 and have been struggling for about eight months. I love competing (at an amateur level), but this injury has made it difficult. I’ve done some research but haven’t found much on CrossFit athletes returning to the sport after similar injuries. Since you have a wide reach, I thought you might be able to share helpful insights from the community. I’m also considering a TRT-BPC cycle but haven’t decided yet. If you could keep my name anonymous, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks again for all your content!

[@kathleenxxoo]

"Michael Kelso-ing CrossFit" love how a character from a great TV sitcom became a verb

[@ChrisTexan]

One of the things the non-existent media team around the "sport" side of CrossFit could have been/could be used better for IS the focus on lifestyle, nutrition, etc, rather than the mostly athlete-focused "stories" that are inspirational in their own way (grandma, adaptive athletes, kids, etc "doing CrossFit") nearly all those videos are on the physical workout side of the coin with little focus on the rest of the lifestyle changes. Simply take 50% of the physical workout "glamour" cuts out of those, and focus on grandma, kids, adaptives, etc, doing their meal plans... making sure they get to bed at a decent hour, saying "no thank you" to an offer of a beer or soda, etc... a good media person could cut those snips in just as easily as anything else (I remember one video years ago following one of the Dottirs (Katrin I think) as she was walking around her house, and she took a banana, peeled it, dropped it on her kitchen scale with hardly a glance and picked it up to eat while still walking/talking and not missing a beat. THAT was an insight into a games-level athlete, that was more revealing to me than watching Khalipa burning through cleans or Bridges doing Murph. Just make the same style videos, but dropping those "lifestyle" items in more rigorously... recovery, eating, planning, tidbits in as 5 second blips in between the lifts and climbs and runs. Anyhow, interesting video and revealing that clearly Glassman is still more interested in the "fix" than any grudges or hard feelings, that's dedication to a vision. Like him or not, I have respect for that degree of focus on achieving success for his goal of increasing health and fitness for all!

[@TheHazchic]

I have a few gyms that send me clients for gut health work and we always start with nutrition because that is how their gut got in trouble in the first place. Most of them are under-fueled for the CF they do and frustrated they cannot get gains or lose weight. You cannot fix metabolic issues with CF alone. You have to address nutrition.

[@AshtonCrabtree19]

He is referencing the school material for his children I believe, they have been talking about that content recently. I believe that's what the commenter was referencing they wanted and he said he would provide. I could be wrong

This is absurd and a blantantly obvious paid endorsement. We and many other affiliates are fully engaged in curing chronic disease, including nutrition coaching. The L1 still teaches nutrition. For months, Greg's cohorts alluded to the "end of the non-compete" insinuating a competing service to CrossFit. Now it's a complementary service. Emily and her crew are essentially another HSN, RP Strength, Precision Nutrition, etc.

EDIT: unless you mean Fitness in 100 Words, @Greg_Glassman was not the first person to define the ten components of fitness, and it’s inappropriate to repeat this false rumor. He may well be the first person to become insanely rich from the definition, and there’s no doubt he helped change the health of millions around the world, but his definition wasn’t original, as seven of the ten were first cited in a 1951 study by Larson and Yocom, and later researched and published by HHS, as well as several others, including the YMCA in 2000. I studied this definition in my undergraduate exercise science degree back in the late 1990’s, and it wasn’t until CrossFit started (nearly a decade later) that the rest of the world learned about it. Not trying to troll here, just pointing at facts.
