This is fucking insane. I also saw (and commented on) a “Crossfit striking” vid. All this nonsense is gonna get someone really hurt. Crossfit: where integrity takes a backseat when there’s money to be made and the ignorant to exploit.
…Giving hipsters the confidence to get truly hurt since 2014
Once they started dicking around with medcine balls all I could think of was this…
I’m afraid to watch is it like the tae bo craze from the late nineties where after a class everyone thought they were vandamme? Or like the rocky films and every Italian guy thought they could box?
This is awesome, crossfit is now the ultimate everything.
Wow, crossfit really does prepare you for anything.
Maybe if you kip hard enough, you could be dangerous.
Oh boy…
In all honesty, Tony Blauer is a pretty legit instructor. I don’t know why he sold out to Crossfit the way he has, other than the financial gain. I think associating with Crossfit de-legitimizes his program.
Other than that…WHAT THE F…K is up with Glassman’s hair these days!!! Holy shit…talk about a mid-life crisis. He looks ridiculous. Kinda like a gimpy version of Jimmy Buffett.
i refuse to watch the video, just curious if they kipped for every move?

That was really funny. My new gym catch phrase is “EURO TRAINING!”

There is nothing more legitimate than a booked schedule and a bank account full of money.
Crossfit is now the ultimate power in the universe I suggest we use it.
Tony Blauer has been involved with crossfit since at least 06 or so. He is apparently very good friends with Greg Glassman. That being said, he offered to do this at my gym so we took him up on it. I’m a life long martial artist (wrestling all my life, BJJ since 1998, and kickboxing for 10 years) I’ve fought in 6 MMA matches, thousands of grappling matches at a reasonably high level. I’m always skeptical of self defense stuff, but I did it anyway (it was free for me). None if it was bad, mostly it was about awareness and reaction. The med balls were used because most xfit gyms don’t have pads and that’s fine, its just to give something to hit.
I’ll say it was good food for thought in terms of self defense.
or buy a gun.
