[@RAHULSHARMA-cr6em]

can some one explain how clean and jerk points were awarded to them ??
what are the rules ??

[@JaredTG.]

When people are sitting down trying to come up with stuff to do in crossfit is their first thought "Lets make this shit as weird as possible?" Its like a totally different dimension or something

[@fiend652]

Lmao

[@NoleNOhio]

Am I wrong, but did Mayhem only do 8 of the last 9 thrusters?

[@Pompom54321]

NoleNOhio they did 9.. Start to count from 41:44 to 41:53 for 5 and from 42:03 to 42:08 for 4

[@benlauson555]

This event was a snooze fest... "Make some noise!" Its hard when everyone is asleep.

[@ej9569]

Crossfit is what I imagine is designing a workout but you've taken an ounce of cocaine before hand and this is the result..

[@Garrick1983]

Thats a lot of coke,I imagine you've done neither.LOL

[@bwestbrook90]

Dre. Buddy. WHY

[@Freeman_AF]

My knees hurt watching those cleans

[@insert6190]

Y e s

[@84jamesp]

Can you have a team with 4 men or do you have to have 2 women and 2 men?

[@GracieStudart]

84jamesp it has to be two men and two women. If not it would be an obvious unfair advantage.

[@84jamesp]

Gracie
Okay thanks

[@MrViktorlundin]

Is this gym class for grown ups?

[@ijatyahya1784]

ZERO

[@ashtonsymmonds4398]

this makes me laugh

[@jerryrawls5156]

Yeah, probably sitting on your fat ass eating your chips and drinking your soda.

[@Tucs67]

Heat 2 30:12

[@andreamartacontreras6322]

Can someone tell me if these people also use steroids?

[@Sasasala386]

Who cares

[@jacksongreer7477]

They can get tested at any time. Even after competition. If they test positive any money they have won has to be returned and titles stripped.

[@dognews13]

Music choice is really bad!!!! I would wear headphones to better tunes then this.

[@erayfit3461]

team events are boring

[@RishiAJ]

Wait, so they can add a dip for momentum before they Jerk? That’s not even a legit Clean & Jerk.

[@VirginiaGeorge]

Beard under a Barbell. I have always seen people dip before the jerk.
“The jerk begins from the ‘front rack’ position, which is the finishing position of the clean. The lifter dips a few inches by bending the knees, keeping the back vertical, and then explosively extends the knees, propelling the barbell upward off the shoulders, and then quickly dropping underneath the bar by pushing upward with the arms and splitting the legs into a lunge position, one forward and one back. The bar is received overhead on straight arms, and, once stable, the lifter recovers from the split position, bringing the feet back into the same plane as the rest of the body.”

[@thorish5033]

The dip is part of the jerk... Or do you mean people were double bouncing? I didn't notice any double bouncing but I was only really watching a few people.

[@RishiAJ]

@@deslauriers9581 Yeah watch the video again and tell me how double bouncing is legit. You crossfitters are making fools of yourselves.

[@RishiAJ]

@@thorish5033 This indeed.

[@thorish5033]

@@RishiAJ Yeah double bouncing is a no go. 3 Reds all day for that. But don't lump all crosfitters together lol. Some of us take our weightlifting seriously
