Hearing his friends talk about him so badly is kind of sad and makes one think if that what friends are about?!? GREAT to see the transformation though!!!
The TH-cam and crossfit community is demanding at least one more follow up episode as an update. Such an inspirational series. Literally watched all the videos within 2 days
Good for his friend for trying CF. Just be open to what's ahead of you and you'll surprise yourself, not matter what you do. I've watched all these episodes and they've all been inspirational. I've been doing CF since early Feb 2013 and while I'm still new at it I think I've found something I love more than I thought I could.
Came across this series while exploring the phenomenon which is "Crossfit", like a lot of people, I have been reluctant to give it a try because every image I see on the internet is of these "Spartan looking" men and women, kind of intimidating! I really was impressed and once I started watching the first episode, I was hooked. Thanks for sharing your journey and inspiring the average Joe to not be afraid to give elite fitness a try.
Not a very productive rest day for me today, rowed 5kms and did some burpees but pretty much spent the whole day watching a guy transform his life in a relatively short period of time... great series, glad to learn that Gary now owns his own Box
Crossfit is for everyone, only 10% of my classes are super-fit. These videos get me pumped up and ready everyday for my Crossfit session that night, keep at it
What an awesome series. I wish there more episodes. It is pretty inspirational. I just signed up at a local box yesterday. It literally kicked my ass. I can't wait to go back again later today. Thanks Gary.
Hey Gary. I am from India. I saw your series "Killing the fat man" and it was inspiring. Thank you for sharing your story with us. I have joined local crossfit gym for a week now. I have mixed it up with MMA. Completed my first week today. And after years, I was hungry for food. Because of weight gain, I had started hating food, and used to have my meals as just a "work to do". But today I enjoyed my meals. I hope that I am able to keep up my momentum with crossfit and MMA, till I transform myself. Thanks once again for inspiring us.
Guys, was this the last episode? I literally watched everything in one day and loved it all. It was all very real and unfiltered to the point that I could relate to a lot of personal matters. Very enjoyable.
Everyone's like "watched it in two days! I was so addicted to this inspirational story" it's 7:03 right now. I started episode one at like 2:00 anyone else make their recovery day consist of this man's story lol?
Gary has inspired me so much. Ive been going to crossfit for a week now and I'm loving it. I never thought a 350 pound guy could do this stuff until I saw how they worked with Gary. I know exactly how Gary feels and I hope to reach the level he is at now. Thank you for these videos I can't describe how much they truly inspired me!!
You have been a inspiration! I started in April with Crossfit at just over 4 bills and now I clean eating and down 41 and still going strong. Any time I need a pick up I just re watch your videos!
Hi Gary. I am from Chile and about two months ago I started yo workout. Today I found your serie by accident and i watched all. I want yo be teeling the same story, just like you. I will be expecting the next episode. Thank you so much for motivate me with your story!!!
Awesome set of videos. Very, very informative and motivating. Gary, you and your dad are fantastic role models for every unfit person out there. Hope Gary Sr. continues to do Crossfit and I would love to see more video of his progress.
This series has been fantastic and inspiring. I start my cross fit journey in a few days and I am hoping it is as rewarding as yours has been. I have a ton of weight to lose and a new life to gain. Thank you!
Gary!! You look incredible and are a true life inspiration. In your own humorous way you've let people into your life and along your crossfit journey of fitness. Congrats from California Crossfit Code 3!!
i been doing cross fit for twow weeks noand did not know much about it im am currently 275 pounds and have been either not finishing or barely finishing my work outs. my last two works outs i have seen a diifrerence in my recovery. I did not know much else about cross fit and looked it up. i stumbled across your video and its truly inspiring i want to get down to 175 and muscular so you have showed me its possible
Gary, I have to say that your journal really inspired me to change my life. My wife had been doing crossfit for a year and I saw the changes in her. However, I always came up with excuses on why I couldn't do that. I had let myself go for 15 years. A lot worse than you. I stumbled upon your videos while checking out crossfit And immediately decided that I could do it too. I am two months in, down a couple clothes sizes and feel great. So thank you for doing this.
Loved ever espsiode, great series. Im considering joining crossfit but still undecided due to ( cost and time) however watching this series motivated me to join.
I am down 22 pounds and still going. Wish I could go more than twice a week but I am trying to do some stuff at home. There is nothing better than being that good sore. Best thing I have done for myself in a long time!
LOVE seeing the progress and spirit of community, 'we're not here to belittle him, we're here to build him up and make him a better man' HATE Gary's socks hahaha
Iv been watching these wandering why am I not doing it? Im 19 smoked for 4 years. These have showed me that if they can do it so can I. Time to get my head out of my ass and do whats right for my body
I am also ready for episode 14, you have motivated me to join a gym. It is not crossfit as this is not yet available in Portugal. I will love to do crossfit.
Gary!! first of congrats in ALL you have achieved since episode 1. I have watched it all, and all i can say is....where is episode 14?! you're prolly super busy with all the sub 3 minutes interviews and being a boss overall!! Keep on the good work!!
Make sure you find a box with good coaches who have additional qualifications, the level 1 cert is good, but not enough. I did Crossfit when new to exercise, it wrecked my back, the coaches were kind decent people but didn't know enough. Crossfit has a lot to offer, if done right. I am now a C.P.T
First time actually going through and reading the comments. Gary made me talk trash for the episode. I never talked like that, the talking was staged but the WOD was real! He killed me! LOL
I love seeing the fear in peoples eye's on their first WOD, reminds me of myself the first few weeks. Also, that coach was totally dogging that workout.
Thrusters and burpees in the same workout, lovely :) The winner of a friendlywod like this, is the guy who is lying suffering on the floor the longest after the workout.
Hearing his friends talk about him so badly is kind of sad and makes one think if that what friends are about?!? GREAT to see the transformation though!!!

ITS COOL! Gary got fit and everybody around him did too

It ended rather suddenly. I would have liked to see a conclusion or something. Still, this is very inspiring.
Where are you at today Mr. Gary Roberts? No more videos. You have been an inspiration to me!
Everyone's like "watched it in two days! I was so addicted to this inspirational story" it's 7:03 right now. I started episode one at like 2:00 anyone else make their recovery day consist of this man's story lol?
Yup, me today!
This is why I love crossfit! it change my life! I love GARYYYYY!

GUYS LOOK, the mystical episode 13 has arrived!!!
Make sure you find a box with good coaches who have additional qualifications, the level 1 cert is good, but not enough. I did Crossfit when new to exercise, it wrecked my back, the coaches were kind decent people but didn't know enough. Crossfit has a lot to offer, if done right. I am now a C.P.T
finally, he's back
been waiting sooo long for this
OH YEAH EPISODE 13 YEAAH
Good shit. Go Crossfit
Finally the new chap :)! Great one, and great to see Gary back!
I dont like his "friend" though xD, he's weird.
Keep the episodes coming soon, please
Harold- "This sucks so bad", Coach- "yep, awesome".
congrats Gary, amazing transformation, the first 8 episodes were the best. Then things kinda got a bit meh. Still, kudos to you sir.
Where is Gary Now! Update would be awesome!!!!!
I heard a podcast on itunes saying that he didn't really stick to it and got chubby again. I think they are filming a second season now.
Harold doesn't sound like a very nice best friend! But awesome job Gary AND Harold for gettin after it! :) Love the Series! :)
First time actually going through and reading the comments. Gary made me talk trash for the episode. I never talked like that, the talking was staged but the WOD was real! He killed me! LOL
Jesus the mellow drama from the hardcore xfitters reminds me of Ben stiller in dodgeball...love the workouts though
I would like to see him do Annie or Fran for baseline.. Should've done that episode 1
he should of gave him the baseline test. felt like it was too hard for a first wod.
"Don't breath lets go!" haha
I like Gary's T-Rex grip on his thrusters :P
Great video.
Where is your next video?
Finally a 13th episode. thanks guys. We wanna know about Gary's father please...
I love seeing the fear in peoples eye's on their first WOD, reminds me of myself the first few weeks. Also, that coach was totally dogging that workout.
Took long enough I missed seeing Gary
APPLAUSE!!!! Inspiring.
Awesome.
Great work. From fat boy to cross fit ambassador. Well done.
These vids are addictive!
How's gary's dad doing?
Thrusters and burpees in the same workout, lovely :)
The winner of a friendlywod like this, is the guy who is lying suffering on the floor the longest after the workout.
Wait some of those squat thrusters are no rep... Haha... Kidding, well done buddy.
Hahaha @ Nick!!! Gotta say that's the first time I've been called that!
8:18 writing mistake: Thrusters not Thursters
Anyway I love watching `Killing the fat man`
