As awful as workouts like this are, there is something about being alone in a gym or a garage, no music, just you and your own weak quitter mind and you shove that down and overcome. Great work man
@@zacktelander there was a study done where they had a group of people walk around a room saying “I cannot walk around a room.” And then they had them take a pain tolerance test. They compared this to people who just took the pain tolerance test, and the people who walked around the room lasted 40% longer. They’ve hypothesized that this has to do with the fact that it teaches you that your thoughts don’t control your body, so you’re less likely to listen to them, and I imagine you kinda did the same thing.
@@zacktelander david Goggins talks about how when he is having a hard time getting motivated he will say out loud into a voice recorder the silly excuses and thoughts of self-pity he had. Then he said, “you know what I heard when I played back those voice recordings?!?!?! I heard a little bitch making excuses!!!!!” Then he goes and gets after it. It help you to be more objective with yourself
I watch you snatch and clean more than I ever imagine I could. And today I watched you struggle through “Linda” with just a little more weight than I would use. Watching you struggle like that gives me hope that I too can someday snatch and clean big numbers. Somehow it encouraged me in my journey seeing you truly struggle too. I hope this doesn’t come off as trolling as I am a big fan. I’m 47 with a training age of 2.
Well done ZT, Linda is brutal.. always surprises me how anaerobic it is and nukes my CNS every time. I appreciate the full spectrum of self talk during the workout, I can relate to that big time after all my years of crossfit. Reminds me of the good times throwing around some weights at Foundry barbell club Saturdays.
I enjoy both CrossFit and WL. Seeing him fight his own demons at the end is the reason I like CrossFit. There’s a lot of negatives about CrossFit but there’s also something healthy about facing those demons on a consistent basis. You did good brother.
Thank you for making these videos! We appreciate them a f*** ton! You’re one of my biggest influences for getting into Olympic Lifting and videos like this are indescribably inspirational!
Hell yeah, man. Love to see you grinding through a brutal workout like this 👊 And you're absolutely right that something clicks after the round of 8 - that's right about the halfway point. 10 to 1 is 55 reps of each movement, so after 8 you've done 27 of each. Then the rounds get shorter, muscle groups get a little more rest, you keep grinding. Also appreciate the crossfit love - most people just think of the stupid pull ups and ugly form of beginners. But this is what it's about. The feeling you've got at the end. The "it took everything out of me but I fuckin did it" feeling. Hell yeah.
Damn, 6 reps and moving on was 🦒 beast mode. The minimal editing of this video was excellent! Also Zack, you look A E S T H E T I C deadlifting with the camera from behind.
Loved that video! I got inspired after watching it but didn’t have an hour plus (which is what it would have probably taken me). They both were about 40min if I remember correctly. So I did 1-10-1 which was more appropriate for me and allowed me to keep moving with minimal breaks. Great job Zack for getting out of your comfort zone!
I appreciate your instructional/highlight/ commentary videos, but for some reason, what started me watching your content and gets me every time are these alone in the gym, no music, limited talking workout vids. Keep up the good work bro
I’ve never done Diane but after watching this I’m going to do it. My numbers will be similar so it’s going to fkn hurt. You talking to yourself is normal as hell. It’s exactly what we all needed to see. You facing yourself. Well done 👍 bro
I’ve been following your channel for about 3-4 years now. I’m a student athlete at UGA, but with my career coming to a close, I decided to join a CrossFit gym. Obviously since watching you, I’ve been going in fairly skeptical of the principles being taught to me by the coaches, but overall it’s been a pretty darn fun experience. And seeing a few crossfit videos by you recently has been kinda fun
Awesome work Zach!!! Thank u for letting us see mental battle. There have been days were I wanted to quit after every rep too. Feels better knowing I’m not the only 1.
Great workout! i have a technical question..the gym music is off because copyright? Any other solution beacause i have the same problem.. i want the natural sound of the every effort
Ok was kinda funny shatting on the ONNIT preworkout right before going to the ONNIT gym lmao Like this style of vid man - no chit chat, just bustin ass
My buddies and I on deployment went from training for bodybuilding/weightlifting to just crossfit the last 2 months and we did this workout one night. Got 4 guys just all quiet thinking these exact thoughts. When I did the first deadlift all I could think was "I have 54 more of these to go"
I love strength-endurance work because it is the great equalizer for athletes. It's the intersection of many strength qualities and you either do it or you don't, there's no gray area.
I have this silly question. Do you guys in the imperial parts of the world have an equivalent plate to the 25kg red one or does it stop at 45lbs. I know there are larger ones, we have 50kg plates at my gym, but as a standard weight though.
You did it 💪🏻 absolute beast. I live in hope that did this off the back of my last comment asking you to do it😅. If not, one hell of a great coincidence 🏋🏼♂️
I did Iron Wolf burpee push-up today, Burpee navy seal challenge 850 rep. Open TH-cam and see Zack added a new video, time to enjoy it! More Crossfit more knowledge
Ok so... 2 things 1. Fucking proud of you Zack you are a beast you are god tier when compared to me. 2. This just fucking inspired me to go for a hard workout. Idk if this a goal of yours or any fitness influencer but I will fucking crush it tomorrow! Ps. Wish I could go right now but I know that would just sub optimal as of the writing of this
ZACK HAS TO ATTACK THIS!!!! I once did a workout where I had to load 16 ton from floor to chest height. I chose a 50kg medicine ball which meant I had to load it 320 times. It took me 1:58, I listened to 16 tons by Tennessee Ernie Ford the whole time and pulled skin off my fingers and forearms. 10/10 reccomend anyone try. (The caps was for attention)
Good for you for posting this. You should retest this in a few weeks/months and time yourself and to check your progress. Your strategy could be improved by breaking up some of those bigger, early sets so that you are able to chip away at it at more of a steady pace. CrossFit had something similar to this as a regional workout a few years ago so you can easily see some strategies keep the bars moving. Nice job finishing.
Man!!! That dark place!!! “ Once more into the fray…. Into the last good fight I will ever know…. Live and die on this day…. Live and die on this day….
I know you know that when they don't specify "squat cleans", powers are totally satisfactory so were you just going for a true to name workout or did you forget?
Zack, Linda is just called Linda. The real iron triathlon is 1 up 20 reps of the same movements and weights, check out Dan Bailey and Jason Khalipa doing it back in 2014 or so.
I believe this is the workout Linda It is brutal, just fries your central nervous system - love it and hate it Did in a combination with mikos triangle…that was fun😬
WOW! SO awesome you did it brother! This is an interesting one too "Holleyman". It's a Hero workout in honor of a fallen soldier. 30 Rounds For Time 5 Wall Ball Shots (20/14 lb) 3 Handstand Push-Ups 1 Power Clean (225/155 lb)
Zack, sorry but this is just Linda. Descending 10-1. The "Iron Triathlon" is the same weights and movements but its ASCENDING 1-20. And it takes your soul.
Is it just me or did this video change titles three times? I swear I have been trying to watch this the last two days and every time I think it's the wrong video...
Bro. Please help me find this video you posted a while back. It involved some older European or Russian guy who had nerve damage which he fixed himself and then became a circus performer and would fling a metal ball up with his head and catch it with his neck. He also put up something crazy like nearly 1000 lbs on the squat at a crazy old age. Plz halp.
@@zacktelander in case you or anyone else wants to see some more Valentin Dikul, I highly recommend this little documentary. th-cam.com/video/NUa9uKN8fRM/w-d-xo.html
Don't do any drug tested weightlifting or ceossfit comps on Gorilla Mode. N-phenethyl dimethylamine is WADA banned. Love Derek, can't take his pre unfortunately
Weird that he did this with a bar in the hands deadlift as opposed to the normal bar in elbows
Yeah, looks all messed up. Why try to reinvent the wheel?! Crooks is king baby!!
As awful as workouts like this are, there is something about being alone in a gym or a garage, no music, just you and your own weak quitter mind and you shove that down and overcome. Great work man
It was interesting projecting my quitter mind out loud to a camera. i’ve never done that before. it almost helped in a way.
Training with music is 'cheating'.
Try to run without music, completely different experience.

Triathlete, weightlifter, and former cross fitter here, this is exactly what i needed this morning
I've done that workout and it's definitely a soul crusher, surprisingly as the reps get lower the intensity picks up
Totally agree. For me it is like 2 separate workouts. 10-6 it muscular endurance, 5-1 it is cardio
Fatigue baby 🎉
I enjoy both CrossFit and WL. Seeing him fight his own demons at the end is the reason I like CrossFit. There’s a lot of negatives about CrossFit but there’s also something healthy about facing those demons on a consistent basis. You did good brother.

All in the ass
Dude your channel has elevated. My favorite youtuber for sure. Crushed when I don't have a new episode with the morning coffee lol.
Dan Bailey and Jason Khalipa did this 1-20 a while back. They called it “The Iron Triathlon”. One of the most insane feats I’ve seen
Start at 1 and go to 20? That’s insanity
Yeah, watched that. Absolutely nuts.

"Linda" is a gnarly workout! Props for doing it at 225. Go back and watch 2018 CrossFit Regionals Event 2.
I have this battle every weekday at 5:15 when I have to wake up, great job pushing through
Body weight wake up is the heaviest of all lifts.
Hell yeah 💪🏼. I’m doin this tomorrow. Thanks for the motivation and great job pushing through!
that video is better than most motivational speeches on youtube
well done truly !

Love challenge workouts like this, pig squat is still on my bucket list cuz of you bro
That was great! Just talk to your demon's and tell them you're gonna do it anyways.

I’ve been there too many times bro. Glad to see you finished. How’d your back feel after? I take G Mode Nitric and find I get the gnarliest back pumps
Linda / "3 bars of death" 😅 Looks like quite the ordeal at those prescribed weights.
Why would you not use safeties during the bench on this workout?
That was intense, I found myself cheering for you. Herculean!
ZACK HAS TO ATTACK THIS!!!!

It was this workout just averaging the weights of all the competitors from last year to get the base weoght.
workouts like this is why I say I go to church when actually I go to the temple of iron - death by barbell, valhall awaits!!!
Man!!! That dark place!!!
“ Once more into the fray…. Into the last good fight I will ever know…. Live and die on this day…. Live and die on this day….
Good old Linda. It will be nuts if you eventually film a Fran or Murph Zack LOL
when you hear the clicking in his neck, you know shit just got serious
Nothing quite like way too much volume. I wanna try this once I get my bench to body weight reps.
I know you know that when they don't specify "squat cleans", powers are totally satisfactory so were you just going for a true to name workout or did you forget?
JESUS those weights sound awesome going up.
great vid, your channel is getting better and better sir
Nice Linda, I am happy you are dipping your toe into the crossfit space.
Yo at 26:38 when "2 reps at 77" came up again I thought had to go back up the ladder 😂
Could you have done power cleans?? Would have made that rom and hr way easier
Great stuff Zach
I'll try it with dipps / chin ups / high risers
For the algo gainz
Oh damn, noticed by The Zaddy himself
Zack, Linda is just called Linda. The real iron triathlon is 1 up 20 reps of the same movements and weights, check out Dan Bailey and Jason Khalipa doing it back in 2014 or so.
this reminds me of my old lacrosse workouts
Would have been fun to watch you race Dozer on this one.
I believe the words that came out of Dan Bailey’s mouth when him and Jason Khalipa filmed this workout were, “don’t do this”.
in just this workout alone you lifted over 41,250lbs in volume wild my boiiii thats good shit
Nice effort!!! Way to power thru.
Good job ZT!!! How’d you feel the next day?
I’m 49 seconds into the video and I’m fully committed!
❤ and ⚽️ 🏀 🏈
You inspire me.
Bravo - you crushed it!
Your first time and you did the original! Hats off! I do it at much lower bodyweight percentages than you...
Awesome work
Out of those three I could only do bench-press, even using your weight but DLs and snatches no chance in hell lol
I've done something similar but front squat / back squat / deadlift. Absolutely murders your soul 😁
This is one of the first named workouts I ever did and I remember sitting up from the bench on the round of 7 and was like "there's no way..."
Looks at weight. Looks at rep scheme. Me: f u c k
I believe this is the workout Linda
It is brutal, just fries your central nervous system - love it and hate it
Did in a combination with mikos triangle…that was fun😬
Gut check complete! Bravo brother 💪🏻
I kinda wanna try this workout, but i KNOW i can't bench my bw xD
somewhere goggins is smiling, respect zt
Fucking awesome video, thankyou for showing your struggles
At my gym the boot campers do this as their last workout before entering “general population.”
No music and just talking, I can feel every rep.
Chalk. Heart Rate. Jesus Christ.
Should be on the back of your next t-shirt.
Yeah, Linda's the bomb. Love it.
I’ve done Linda few time(pun intended) And I could never do it in joggers like that(pun intended)
That's intense
Just because someone thinks something up, doesn't mean you have to do it
tough workout - but a good one
10 reps at bodyweight for bench would bury me.
Nice. Took me 50:01 at 260lb. It's a good one
Looking WIDE
WOW! SO awesome you did it brother! This is an interesting one too "Holleyman". It's a Hero workout in honor of a fallen soldier.
30 Rounds For Time
5 Wall Ball Shots (20/14 lb)
3 Handstand Push-Ups
1 Power Clean (225/155 lb)
Zack, sorry but this is just Linda. Descending 10-1. The "Iron Triathlon" is the same weights and movements but its ASCENDING 1-20. And it takes your soul.
In-fucking-sane.
this is not a triathlon! This is Linda. Iron triathlon has the same movements but from 1-20rep
now this begs the question. would you rather do this again or do pig squats
I'm gonna try this with like 50% of the values they give haha
Don’t quit!
Traps popping like a balloon though 🫶
Is it just me or did this video change titles three times? I swear I have been trying to watch this the last two days and every time I think it's the wrong video...
