Dave CastroSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER

Not as severe as the first time, but re-injured it.
Dave CastroSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER

Then a couple years ago, re-injured it, it again.
Dave CastroSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER

Um, is this the latest that you've had unknowns, or that you've had, like, tweaks that you might make or that you're still testing?
52:29
No, not the latest, but pretty common, especially 'cause as you get closer to the games.
52:33
Like, h- here's one thing.
52:34
I don't have a snail.
52:36
I do have pigs here at the ranch, but I don't have a snail.
52:39
So, like, we're gonna really refine that workout on scene this week with the demo team, um, however the snail's being used at the games, 'cause we've already said that it's being used.
52:50
Um, so usually there's special implements that we don't have access to or, or, um, t- till the week of the games.
53:32

26:13
What are, what are the origins of Greg showing up there at the ranch?
26:16
So basically, you know, I've been...
26:21
Wanted to include the backward roll to support, wanted to include the forward roll.
26:24
Well, actually wanted to include the backward.
26:26

26:38
We're not gonna talk about that yet.
26:40
We're not gonna announce that yet, but we have announced that we're doing both.

38:22
Is that so you can't be spotted?
47:34
Maybe it doesn't have to be that for another motivator to get us through.
47:40
I know someone in the community, and sorry for telling the story.
47:45
You guys all know him, too.
47:46
There's an individual who was a games athlete last year, not individual side, on the teenage side.
47:54
And he's currently at Bud's.
47:56
And he got rolled back because of some of the standards.
48:01
And so this is like some of the physical standards.
49:18
to drown yourself in seal training?
33:49
Oh,
33:49
yeah.
33:49
Totally.
33:50
I'm totally excited by it.
33:53
I really enjoy it right now.
33:54
I'm motivated by it.
33:56
I want to kind of just this year just think pure CrossFit.
