Are you seriously suggesting this is hard? Did you even watch this?
I did, and I'm not insinuating that. What I'm asking is for the OP blowhard to back all his "crushing it" talk up. Nothing more-nothing less. I'm still waiting.

55 for 400 but struggled to do sub 45 for 300?
Your final 100 must have been amazing!
Jos Hermans was handing out drinks at the 300m mark ...
Actually, 300m was when I got in the RV, lol.This should be the expression/meme for the point where you surpass your expectations in a race "Yeah, I felt like crap and had three miles to go, but at that point I got in the RV and blew away my PR".

Wow. You mad bro? You must be the hit at every party.
in defense of crossfitters (jesus, can't believe I wrote that) these guys aren't exactly that athletic to begin with.
i had a to take a fitness running class my freshman year of college and the professor was my head track coach.
Class was boring, and was at 8am, and he was always really pushing me to run as much as possible because of track season and said, "have fun with this one today, don't let anyone beat you....and you'd better break 7:00 minutes for the run (with an evil smile)"
In one day, we had to do
1 - as many pushups as possible in 60 seconds (90 degrees elbow)
2- as many situps in 60 seconds (someone held our feet)
3 - 1.5 mile run on indoor 200m track.
1 - 74
2 - 103
3 - 6:54
My high school PB in the 2-mile was 10:04, so running under 4:40 pace was brutal and i almost fainted at the end. Sadly, this one one of my best performances until my junior year of track. haha
i was also in 48.5-49.0 4x400m shape at the time
At least the guide says to do a good warm up. The California Highway Patrol just say they give you a little time to stretch for their PFT and nothing is even weighted.

The trick of course is to sandbag your weaknesses and cater to your strength. Obviously every runner seems to want to show they are still reasonably strong and use it all up in the push ups and sit ups.
CrossFit is good for getting buff.
Ladies prefer their men to be buff, not scrawny fat like most of the runners here.
Interesting that the Crossfit guy has he does Crossfit 5x/wk and lifts once a week. So does he not consider crossfit lifting?

Dude, I don't think anyone is going to take the time to even look into this or believe you, but you are 100% right. Same guy, same tattoo, same voice.
Either BuzzFeed just has a lack of people to use in videos or they are lying through their teeth.

He is trans. Not that it matters, but it may be a bit harder for him to hit the men's times. It also explains the capri tights.

Also a free rein to spike the T supplements. Still very mediocre. Probably not much talent as a woman either.

I really doubt they are lying. That guy probably works for them doing whatever and they just used him in both their videos.
He goes around as a guy now so what is there to lie about?!
He apparently smokes too so that might affect his fitness.
Can you really call a trans person average?

Crossfit is barely lifting.
Doing a few heavy sets of ONE exercise every 3 days or so isn't really lifting. Their other stuff is just muscular endurance/cardio.
A better alternative would be to lift heavy total body 3x week (1 lower, 1 upper push, 1 upper pull), followed by a total body circuit of your choosing. Then 3 days of cardio/sprinting/hills.
Alan
That should have been 1 exercise each of lower, upper push, upper pull, then circuit

This guy tried the FBI fitness test which didn't actually look that hard to me. I'm a runner who lifts once a week and I know I could crush this workout.
Even more importantly, some guy that runs 2 miles a week managed to pass this same test.
How is it possible that some dude that does crossfit 5 days a week can't pass a basic fitness test???

You are a douche little boy. You will grow up poor with 3 wives who get tired of your tiny penis but excited about your earning possibility. Hopefully, you will get the shit kicked out of you one day which jars your needle dick into reality. If you are a troll then all rings true
