47:28 Mat Fraser 😎🔥

[@drewfologist2755]

Not until he wins a few team titles. ;)

[@sportsbettingeducation]

Rich beat Fraser head to head a few times. Fraser dominated after Rich retired. Still a great athlete but Rich will always be #1.

[@ItalianOnlineSchool]

I just realized these are old workout lol

[@thegoodfellow41]

Was this peak Crossfit?

[@WayneGlass1]

I think so

[@zeusfitter007]

Cornelius would be proud

[@guillermotijerino]

those bastards fired the soul of CrossFit!

[@sportsbettingeducation]

Literally Dave & Greg meant so much to this whole thing. I’m praying the owner passes the company back to Greg.

[@ndi5670]

Hi Dave, 2022 here. Mat Fraser says different! 😅
🏋️‍♀️💪🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇

[@rickricky2604]

Keep in mind the men have 30 to 40 more pounds to carry over the women.

[@m.a.5028]

In bodyweight? All that muscle mass also helps them to lift more 🙄

[@DarthBane-zf8wv]

That’s the perfect equivalent though. 95/65 is just as hard for both.

[@sportsbettingeducation]

@@m.a.5028 lmao that’s exactly what I was gonna say. 😂

[@kyucklebeans]

@@m.a.5028the extra bodyweight is also more of a workload for the burpees…

[@kyucklebeans]

Women say they want equal pay for equal work, but they refuse to do equal work in CrossFit workouts and still demand equal pay for the CrossFit Games

[@habavdekar]

Damn is that Travis Bagent who did all the intros? @hillerfit
