Trolle. Det er folk som kødder på internett for å provosere andre, fordi de kjeder seg osv. F.eks komme med en uttalelse en vet vil provosere andre, bare for morro. Mange gjør det her på letsrun.
Canova over denne tåpen her for eksempel hehe
Eg veit - eg trollar ganske mykje. Stort sett utan å lykkast:)
Haha, har lagt merke til det
Lol it does not depend on the exercise. There is NO way that Kiprop is stronger than them at anything exercise.
And the point is not whether or not they are actually strong. The point was could a top runner like Kiprop do better at Crossfit Worlds than a top cross fitter at track worlds. The answer is clearly no. Kiprop would be lucky to do equally as bad as the cross fitter.
Guy is a good talker. People often buy into people who talk with confidence and pretend to be experts. I bet he makes a nice sum of money training people. I would guess he believes what he says too.
yes, he speaks convincingly. However, if you try to decipher
what he is saying, you realize it is incoherent babble.
This is a ridiculous statement because Alan Webb has rarely been injured. I can't even remember the last time I heard that he had an injury. And who cares about how scrawny his arms or the arms of any distance runner are? This is what distance runners look like. That's how they run fast and win races. As soon as a cross fit person runs sub 4, sub 13, sub 27, or sub 2:10, then you can start giving distance runners advice on how to train. Until then, just shut your mouth, get ripped, stare at yourself in the mirror and continue to be a douchebag somewhere else.

I would take Kiprop in any sort of running event longer than 10 meters. Hills, intervals, sprints, distance, fartlek, whatever. He would dominate.
I think he would be comparable and likely superior in any jumping activity.
Any sort of bodyweight activity in the lower body--bodyweight squats, lunges, whatever, I think he could do it.
If he decided to train for some marginal amount of time, he would probably be superior in many bodyweight exercises.
None of those crossfitters are in shape to even compete with good high schools (not great, just good) in running events. The few that are good at running were fantastic before doing crossfit. The ones that don't have a running background (Froning) are horrible. Worse than high school girls.
I watched another one of his videos where he talked about a flat tire and running. People buy into the idea that running with proper form is more important than doing a lot of training. So people will eat that stuff up.
it is easy to sell - you don't have to work hard.
Sometimes even former elite runners do that. They advocate
some training although they trained very differently themselves back in the day (i.e. harder).

this^^
BMAC HAS LITERALLY RUN 45 MINUTES FOR 10K
that is so bad
so so so bad
not even my easy running pace
Kiprop is not beating them on any bodyweight exercises. These guys can squat or dead lift over twice their body weight. Can Kiprop squat or dead lift twice his weight? Doubtful. So throw out the idea that he could do more body squats, lunges, or jumping. A sprinter sure, but not a distance runner like Kiprop.
It doesn't matter if a bunch of high schoolers can outrun cross fitters. It's not a running competition. Running is only a minor part of the entire competition.

In their dreams maybe.
Here's the guy that got 20th place at Crossfit Worlds. There about 20 guys in the world 10000m so that's why I chose that number.
http://games.crossfit.com/athlete/24156Tell me Asbel Kiprop can snatch 300 lbs.
Haha - this guy's bio is SO appropriate for the discussion for so many different reasons.
First - notice his running stats - 400m PR: 70 seconds; 5k PR - only blank on the list.
Also, former D1 and professional athlete. Yeah, I'm sure Crossfit is the primary reason he is a good athlete. This guy was always a stud.

Ha ha...PERFECT response, just what we'd expect from a Paleo/X-fit "bro."
So you make a claim that science has proven something, while not supplying any links to said research, and then when I call you on this and say there is no research to support BMac's specific claims (working on one's deadlift max is as important or more important than doing long runs in preparation for an ultra marathon), your response is: it exists, look it up for me.
Classic BS pseudo-science nonsense that paleo and x-fit people specialize in. Thanks for the laugh and proving my point...."bro".

Hilarious considering how much attention they pay to "proper form" in every other exercise they do, i.e., none.

Do you have any evidence for this?
These guy's 5k goes from 18:30 - 23+. Their 400 are 55-70.
There are 15 year old JV HSers who weigh 125 soaking wet that would throw down on them.
The one dude who has 50 - no FAT? - for the 400 runs 25:26 for 5k, that's a decent time for D1 XC 5 miler.
I give the guy credit. A 4:37 marathon would be hard to do from a sheer boredom perspective. I suppose if I didn't get DQ'ed for stopping along the way for a coffee and bite to eat from time to time to kill 2+ hours. Maybe watch a ball game if the marathon course went by a park.
