At your low point, you’ve just put out one of the best content I’ve ever seen. So much wisdom to be taken from this, even for a person from a much older generation as myself. You’ve just earned my subscription. Watch out Hyroxers, Hunters coming for you!
SAME!!
Subscribed also. I disliked him after his CrossFit Games shenanigans but his sharing on these videos over the last couple of years has been so so generous. This was relatable, that feeling of overtraining and disappointment.
@@mycheezels205what did he do? I’m pretty new to his channel.
@@giovanni3023 He didn’t qualify for the 2019 CrossFit Games through the usual qualifying events eg. The CrossFit Open. Instead he launched a social media campaign to get one of 2 wildcard spots. His campaign videos kind of made him appear arrogant and disrespectful. And I guess we were expecting both wildcard spots to be given to previous games champions or someone who narrowly missed qualifying or maybe someone who would completely dominate the reigning champions at a snatch ladder… for entertainment purposes. But I think it was in the end a good decision to go completely wild for the wildcard and put an OCR athlete to the test.
@@mycheezels205that is not how it happened lol
One of the best pieces of content I've viewed so far around Hyrox. Thank you
I wish more top athletes took the time to talk about personal failures. This is really interesting and inspirational.
You’re still a winner, Hunter ! And continue to inspire the rest of us to do better each day!!
Man, I became a fan of yours when you were on Broken Skull Ranch and this video was awesome to watch. Appreciate you being open and vulnerable about this, especially knowing how competitive you are. RESPECT.
You’ve been a big inspiration to me as I train up for special forces assessment and selection. Keep crushing hunter, thanks for all your content on your channel
I love how he takes responsibility for everything, not laying blame on anyone else. Great mentality!
I love the content you put out, and I love the honesty and transparency. You have done so much for the sport. Can't wait to watch the come back, I know you will get them next year.
Loved the honest assessment of your journey and how the race unfolded. You should be proud of hanging in there and hopefully you can take something positive away from it and come back next year or at some point when you want to and throw your hat in the ring and see what happens! You lost - you’re not a loser! Great quote! Take some time off and then LFG!!!
So many valuable lessons from this experience. I'm incredibly grateful you share them all in such detail. You've undoubtedly learned boatloads about how far you can push yourself, and your transparency is truly inspiring. Your dedication to leaving a mark and being one of the greats is evident, and I wanted to say you've inspired me tremendously. I'm currently training for an IRONMAN thanks to you, and it all started with HYROX.
I watch all your videos and have followed your recent journey closely. Your dedication, reading countless books on fitness, and your expertise in every aspect of fitness and competition are impressive. The experience you have, coupled with your relentless drive to push yourself to the limits, makes you truly admirable.
I really hoped for a sub-51 finish, and it was heartbreaking to see what happened in Nice... I can't imagine what it must've felt like for you, going into it knowing you weren't even close to your best, having to find strength where there wasn't any must've been a horrible feeling.
Remember that feeling and use it to fuel a plan to beat these guys next year. Your resilience and determination are what make you the champion bulk pony we all know.
We're rooting for you man, document this year and smash them come 2025!
Thank you for such a raw, honest account. Been lucky enough to watch you race at the last 3 world champs, and hopefully I’ll be there to see your comeback next season 💪❤️
Hearing it makes sense. It's hard to listen to your body when you're hitting personal best fitness milestones. The ego gets carried away. But always comes back to basics. Great content and appreciate you being willing to share this with us. Still team #bicepswinraces
Love your content mate ,
especially raw stuff like this one.
Can’t wait to see how much this will sharpen you💪
Still the bulk pony 🐎 went out like a legend as always btw this production is 🔥🔥
Hunter, wow!! What an honest and inspiring assessment of your performance and lessons learned. I, like many others on here, have been following your training for the last few months in awe at how you’ve been able to get such high volume, heavy weight, etc, all WHILE losing weight. Without illegal drugs, this combination is nearly impossible.
While I’m not a pro athlete, the lessons you’ve gone through are similar to ones I’ve gone through with a business career - my best performances are always when I’m well prepared but critically NOT over doing it. Thank you for sharing all this. You are one of the greatest.
Great insight champ! Thanks for sharing :) - You are a beast! Excited to see your comeback arc in 2025! Much love Hunter!
Big video from a big man! thank you for sharing this and being vulnerable, with us and for us. Get up on the horse and get going my man. We all believe in you.
Fantastic content, thanks for posting been waiting for this!
Great video. Really love the honesty. Cant wait for the comeback
This is amazing. Thanks for the honesty. Good luck for next year
Really appreciate your honesty and the vulnerability that required. You're an inspiration and just became a little more of a superhuman in my book.
Great honest video! Hope you and Sandy smash some doubles records next year as well 👌👌
Thank you for sharing such an honest raw interview ! Next year will be even better
Great video Hunter! Love the insight into the past year
I'm 20mins into this interview. What an interview. Completely changed my perception of him.
Thank you for your honesty and telling it as it was. Takes a real champion to open up like this! I know you will be back!
Looks like you’ve learned a lot about yourself. You push the envelope for sure! Keep hammering! Takes a lot of courage to do this video. Thanks Hunter
Love hearing about your training methods, reasoning and obsessions! 10/10
Absolutely the best content in the fitness racing space. Thanks for sharing and inspiring!
Best video of yours I've watched! Brutally honest.
A true champion. Redemption is coming!!!!!
Extremely valuable information for the serious athletes following you.
This is what you needed for your future wins! You got this man!💪🏼 You perfectly analyzed everything, back to 'smart' programming and relying on your body!🏆
Great video man. I'm sure you will still improve your PB. Granted I'm a Roncevic fan myself but following your season long videos has been an inspiration for my training for sure. Plus, you can bring a funny atmosphere for the videos haha. Keep it up!
Win or lose, you still motivate and inspire me and others. This video is great proof.
Thank you for making this video!
Thank you for sharing ❤ I hope to see you on The Sevan Podcast soon!
Hunter I can’t wait to see you absolutely destroy the rest in the next one, real champion mentality 👌🏼
Massive respect, it seems like you just over trained and your body just blew up right before you meant for your body to peak. Regardless you will be back Hunter!!!
Thanks for sharing the details. It takes guts. Well done mate
Great (honest) video! Can’t wait to see the next chapter. :)
Hunter great video and you’re an inspiring champion. I had never done a Hyrox until this year and your videos, workout plans is what inspired me and kept me going (even with a newborn baby). Michael Jordan’s quote rings true here - “I’ve failed over and over again in my life. This is why I succeed.”
You’re a legend and will be back stronger than ever. Btw I’m all in on the Summer Athlete Camp. #BicepsStillWinRaces
Great job man, good retrospective content. Get back to it Champ! 🇺🇸💪🏻
I respect you, man. Thanks for sharing your experience. Those that share your mindset, understand.
Great honesty. Wish you all the best! Been dealing with a bulging disc. So you are not alone. But we don’t quit. Just keep moving.
And btw please do a Podcast with wodscience ❤
@Hunter Mcintyre: I generally don't comment on videos and media, but I have been following your videos and content since I learned of and participated in Hyrox for the first time a few years ago. I enjoy all of your videos and as an amateur athlete, you have definitely inspired me to get better and improve my Hyrox times (I consider it my own challenge to chase your incredible times).
I just want to say that this is best video that you have put out and my respect level for you as a professional athlete has only grown through the roof! Your transparency in what went wrong for you is greatly appreciated and I have certainly learned from this video. Keep working hard and I am sure that it will be only a matter of time before you are the World Champ again!! Thank you for your motivation and I look forward to continuing to chase your times as I look to improve in Hyrox myself!
Excited to see you kick some ass this year with a fire in that belly 🔥
Inspiring! Can’t wait for the comeback
Iv started hyrox training 9 months iv watched you from the start.. Who better to watch than the world champion to learn the pros and cons..
I love your honesty and not blaming anyone else,, like in any sport when you step over the line it's your the one that's in control of your own performance on that particular day.. Keep posting the videos my best wishes to you for 2025 world season ❤
Great listen hunter! As you say all champions need a kicking!
You will be back this year 💯
The marginal gains are killing the whole story.
Thanks for this insight and story hunter.
I have also been overtrained while training for the Worlds in Ironman and I have also seen this in many top performing athletes.
Before Team Sky went on to win the Tour they struggled with the basics of recovery and training.
Marc Allen struggled to win Hawaii many many times and Dave Scott overdid it before Mark Allen won his first Hawaii and unfortunately never came back.
Lance had two coaches: Michele and Chris. Michele although having a dark history was nevertheless one of the best exercise physiologist and very top notch (authoritative guy). Very smart guy that focuses a lot on the whole basics of the physiology (always staying below LT2 to increase threshold).
My POV is: The low weights are probably just possible in extreme endurance sports. The whole german federational system of track and field overtrained so many good and talented athletes with a too much intensity, too little calories and too little recovery system. RED-S is just so very common in endurance athletes here and a big big hazard. I guess you even induced more stress with the altitute tent or this system ;).
When you look at rowers or XC Skiers (Huge VO2 Engine) they also have a bigger frame. I guess the ultimate capacity in Vo2 (in l/min) is more important than your relative (ml/min/Kg), ex. 7L vs. 73ml/min/Kg, for hybrids or Hyrox Athletes.
But also you see some Athletes (like Kristian Blumenfelt or so), that have a bigger frame with superb relative VO2 values.
Excited to see your next races! Will be good!
Can't wait to watch you to start this comeback.
Love this Hunter. Go get ‘em.
Great video, raw and real. No bad lessons! Get back even stronger in 2025 💪
Incredible - as Hyrox fans we all spend too much time watching 20second Insta reels of someone smashing out 'yet another' WoD - but its THIS that represents reality. Congrats to you Hunter, you're a better champion for this.
Thanks for sharing ..been a fan since your Spartan days hope you chat with Sevan soon
Never seen this side of you I was kinda scared/intimidated by you from social media but this showed me you are human with a passionate goal . You will get those numbers next time
You will sort it out and be back bigger badder and more bulkponier than ever Hunter!
Shit happens , even to the champion. Still a bad ass.
Huge credit for being so honest with your audience in success and less than success, Hunter. As someone who has followed you for years, I could see it in your face during Anaheim and knew what that meant. Excited to see you back at your best next season. BWR
Absolute Champion - the knife edge of elite performance is wild
Such a real reflection. Push on, your untouchable champion time is there, you will get it.
You didn't lose, you just gained new data that will make you better in the long term. Stay strong brother.
Do Gov Games again in the off season my bro! Always a good vibe in Dubai! Great content and an awesome insight into the mind of a champ!
Even the best's can lose. You will be back and stronger!
You are a beast, Hunter
Hunter you didn't lose knowledge
The Old Bull and Young Bull story comes to mind.
Hunter has become an Old Bull and will come back better
You're a beast dude. You know what to do. Bring back the #bulk pony #bicepswinraces
2025 is about to be a movie, the return of the Bulk Pony 😤
Buddy, watch “Micheal Bisping My Destiny”! So much drive to keep bouncing back to get what he worked for in the end. Sometimes a loss can actually be a victory.. to be put down so bad and pick it all back up might be the most rewarding thing youll ever do.
As Denzel Washington would say, "fall forward!" I am a firm believer that we learn more from our mistakes and failures than from our successes. You got this bro! Thomas Edsion conducted 1000 failed experiments, but that 1001 was the motha freaking light bulb!
The Sheriff...No BS...No Excuses...Love this guy...Long Live The Sheriff !...Like The Legendary Phoenix, he will arise from the 2024 Hyrox Ashes!
True growth takes steps back sometimes. Comeback comeback comeback.
What an awesome account 👊FairPlay for being so honest and candid.
Not here to participate 🎉
Honest and awesome. Agree that none of what you did was possibly the wrong thing but all together it was too much! Come back stronger big man, imagine not finishing first twice? No thanks! Haha
We love you Hunter
Great video
cant wait for the comeback
Such wisdom. No doubt you'll be world champ again.
I had alot of your same symptoms, I am not elite athlete but, for me it turned out to be lingering co vid stuff. I did HBOT and my heart rate and effort got back on track for me.
It was painful to watch you so cooked on livestream, glad to see you back! Lets start the comeback baby, its just you vs you!
32:15-32:55. Applies to World Class companies, world class athletes, world class teams. Never stop trying. Keep that attitude of positive discontent. You are a World-Class person Hunter.
love this video
Forever the people’s champ!
Rise and rise again.
Accountability of a CHAMPION
Good to hear from you Hunter. I appreciate your willingness to go your own way and search for new ways. Well it didn't work out this time that's what mavericks do. They win or learn. You looked like an Ethiopian this season -so the experiment didn't work out and being lighter for the runs wasn't worth it, and now you know. Well Lance is coming for your record at 52 yo...did you see him doing the Acid bath workout? Go watch the Dubai CF comp to see how badly that wrecked everybody. Lance wasn't even winded! Bro, you need to consult with Dr Ferrari! Have you read the Tyler Hamilton book?
Not Ferrari 😂.
Shit happens. Keep going and inspiring the people
It's how you bounce back that matters.
Too hot, french Aircon doesn’t exist
Love to train with you at a training camp
56 Minutes...would like to have this problem dude
If you didn't know what went wrong then that would be worrying, but loads of knowledge gained so just crack on again.
Still the Champ!
You raced the sunday relay like elite level hunter, did anything changed between Fridays race to Sundays relay?
2 runs and 2 stations is a big difference compared to an elite 15 effort.
Braylon Tender offered you his coaching services. Oh well. Braylon would have told you that Tour de France contenders care about power-to-weight ratios for one reason only. They race up hills for long periods of time. Gravity is trying to pull you back down the hill and you have to exert power to overcome that force. The greater your bodyweight, the more power you need to overcome that force. So Tour de France contenders are obsessed with achieving the lowest bodyweight possible, consistent with exerting sufficient power to compete at the highest level. Hyrox has no hills. It doesn't even have a station where you have to directly exert power against the force of gravity, like a pull up station. That was a royal blunder, champ.
Burpee broad jump and lunges are two exercises going directly against gravity
I get your point though and do think mass and endurance is better for the other stations
@@alexturnerfitness8650 They're not direct like a pull up.
Maybe his ego weighed him down 😉
He said he read many biographies of cyclists in the peloton… I’d surely hope that he noticed it. It is in almost every book…

Love you hoont
Supreme alpaca hair cut.
Still the fastest man in fitness!
First….. From Austria 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
