Fight Gone Bad Explained

[soshibo9]

i'm 4 weeks into crossfit. i think we did this on my second week. it was the first wod that put me on my back to recover... it was epic

[littlejimmy12]

first time I did this I got the timing wrong - 2 mins per station! I got through 2.5 rounds then pretty much fell in a heap!

[3xAmigosProductions]

so fucking tough

[anhisking]

do you learn how to fight from a chef? do you learn law from a bum? do you learn how to get fit from a guy thats clearly overweight?

[AChildOfBodom667]

@anhisking That's called age. He used to be a competitive gymnast.

[twelling140]

@anhisking overweight or not he still understands the biomechanics of these movements more than any personal trainer with washboard abs will ever comprehend.

[a1hocker]

Are these weights only the plates or total weight with a 45 pound bar. Men 45lb push press is 45lb bar and 30lbs in plates?

[123billionaire]

I just did this work out as a punishment for all the butter I put on my popcorn last night! I have a lot of room for improvement for this one!!! Love this workout!

[jonnybravo007]

My favorite CrossFit mantra: "What you want to do is constantly ratchet up the point at which the margins become inacceptable."

[dhaller99]

I started CrossFit two weeks ago - did the FGB for the first time this morning. Challenging :)

[MrSuperFifer]

'The women used 14lb medicine balls, while Mr. Glassman washed his..'

[markyvazquez]

Why is Glassman fat?

[gregtorok]

Locking the arms out overhead? Isn't it dangerous? This will kill the joints in no time with that intensity, I believe.

[jcehong7]

@gregtorok FGB is a benchmark workout to assess fitness so it is rarely done with inexperienced athletes, with that said at 75 lb max and 60 seconds at a time, conditioned athletes will rarely get injured

[vinnie181]

LMAO, where's the fucking fighting ? bitches!

[BDRioga]

nothing new this crossfit shit.... i ve been doing that since i m 14 and it s called circuits -.-

[Zipemova1]

Wow...such haters on here. So what..some people like kickboxing others don't. What's wrong with getting in shape any way you want to. There may be some BS in it...but there is in almost any thing humans do, and everyone thinks they're choice is better than everyone else's. Blah...Blah...Blah...to the haters. Do what you want to do.

[uninc2684]

Pretty much what this guy is saying is that his program is for people who cant push past the pain when lifting weight. The reason why these people can keep going is because the workouts are more cardio based they they are pumping more oxygen to the muscles..not really getting that much stronger. This is the equivalent of moms doing kickboxing...pigs

[trecuck]

@uninc2684 so working up to your 1-rep max of the snatch is not getting stronger...alright alright you have no idea what you're talking about

[Happy2poo]

@uninc2684 This workout is not meant to make someone stronger. This workout was made for MMA fighters. The goal is not to GAIN muscle, because that would cause fighters to not be able to make weight. This workout is meant to make the muscles you have work more efficiently, and increase your pound-for-pound strength, without gaining muscle weight. So no, this doesnt build much bulk, but It will kick ur ass a lot more than a few bench presses.

[B3thEvans]

Are those really little white ruffles on that chick's pants?

[TheVoiceofresistance]

This is ridiculous. Blah, blah, blah, cyonotic, blah, blah, blah glycolosis. Gee, never mind the little turd has a pot-belly. He MUST know what he's talking about. He knows all the big words and has a white board. Yes, a 5 minute round of constant work will kick your ass. Thank you.

[reallybigmike]

Crossfit!!! where the mens tits ar bigger than the chic's!

[AleksTheBassMan]

There are so many great comments about why Greg Glassman is a fat douchebag that I don't even have time to like all of them!

[sadbutbenji]

this is funny because he said it was developed for bj penn 10 years ago, and bj's cardio sucked back then, also the guy explaining hou effective this all is is a fa fuck with a beer belly the size of a small elk.

[OfficialLouLou]

5:22 she is waiting loool

[avacadoazzurro]

This is horrible music if you intend to market to a broad range of people.

[NickC1973]

If its like a fight gone bad why would you train your body this way?? Dont these guys understand that this kind of training is detrimental to athleticism and health? Read about peak performance and periodization, learn something.

[trecuck]

@NickC1973 Metabolic training, high intensity...this workkout kicks ass! Go do some curls on a smith machine or something. Bye

[NickC1973]

BJ Penn doesnt do this crap anymore. I never understood why a guy who cant even rehab his own body feels like he knows about training people and prescribing general exercises to the masses without assesing or teaching people how to assess themselves for injuries. stupid stupid stupid.

[TheVindicatedOne]

to bad i dont have a rowing machine

[capndreamyeyes]

Great form in the background at 3.25 HAHAHAHA

[capndreamyeyes]

There's nothing like getting fitness advice off a fat fool. Look up to him crossfitters. He is your idol. He is your God.

[Good6uy87]

This shit recked me

[berg89dk]

The people working out in this video should stop what they're doing and do some research instead. Those quick reps, with jerking motion are doing nothing but damaging yourselves.

[Grobulok]

@berg89dk The instructors are pros. The people who come up with the workouts are pros. The atheletes have been training for years. You can't get stronger without challenging your body. Period. That goes for every fitness discipline. You will get injured if you do it long enough, but for most of us, its a calculated risk that we're willing to take because we believe that the benefits trump the downsides.

[maxypooh15]

@berg89dk you do not know what you are talking about

[daocommand85]

@berg89dk

You are partially correct. These people have a higher risk of permanently ripping their muscles off of their bones. It is possible but less frequent then one would think. They look pretty fit, their bodies are used to the workout, making it look "jerky" when they try to reach fatigue faster.

[armyman22234]

this workout kills...alot

[jollygreenspartan]

The first time I did this workout I could only see yellow afterwards.

[evilstib]

@jollygreenspartan You pee'd yourself?

[nocando1234]

If I do this will I look like Glassman?

[umsangil]

lolol

[CaptainSpork7]

@nocando1234 No, but you'll look like one of the athletes in the video ;)

[trecuck]

@nocando1234 hopefully not haha

[wpavlik2]

This is INSANE! I love it!

[tenderminx]

FGB is my fave CF WOD

[JOHNOOH]

my god just type the fucking thing

[tenderminx]

the fucking thing

[tenderminx]

now go sod

[sgibbs]

LOOOOOL

[sspoonbenderr]

lmao...

...Amen.

[1046RougeCop]

I do this @ police acadmy all the time

[robjbray]

I did this at my gym, thought it was easy until about the first 10 sumo dead lifts then it hurt!

I could not keep stuff going for 5 mins non stop even though I was using the right lb,s

[common11sense]

just horrible. far and away the most exhausting thing i've ever done. best score is 425 with burpee sub. i was praying for death when i finished

[myungsupah]

that shit seems rough. i wanna try. wow that's awesome. it's almost like sparq training. this is awesome.

[Cubu47]

so functional man

[katstrut]

awesome video, congrats to all involved. Wish I was there. Great inspiration and motivation. Added to my favourites!! :D
