And probably again this year But that's not the news that i have for you today uh crazy this this i i if it wasn't shocking enough for you guys to find out that ariel lowen trains in her garage and that even when she did train at a gym which i think i don't think it was an affiliate it was like an affiliate she would do the workouts there in the class and then kind of fill in and do accessory work that was that was her protocol before she trained in her garage but how about this what do you think her training partner looks like god forbid we judge anyone but by what they look like but here we go on uh ariel lowen's hugely uh

popular video uh that her account is doing quite well with views uh here we go on uh ariel lowen's hugely uh a popular video uh that her account is doing quite well with views uh here we go a look at her training partner just as shocking as her uh her training environment of this added piece uh as much as it will shock you you'll be like yep i get it here we go you better get ready to be a superstar I was born for this This is Joel Couldn't have got third place Across the games without him So show him some respect You can like him, follow him, hype him up

In the comments how much you love him This is the guy Annie has Katrin Tia has Shane Jason Hopper has Taylor Annie has Katrin. Tia has Shane. Jason Hopper has Taylor. But Ariel Lowen has some dude who, even with that jacket on, looks buff as shit. But look at this guy.

This looks like just some random CrossFitter dude He's a full time worker man Like what time were you up this morning? 4am This is the iron That sharpens iron This is the guy that sharpens Ariel Lowen Joel great video fun Cool dude packed

With details Nuances and information make sure you run over To Ariel's account. God, I'm so excited. Ariel is so—she's so normal and yet so quirky. So normal and yet so quirky. So weird. So many idiosyncrasies. So many, like, bizarre big surprises, too. This is the clue, and like most clues that the Dave Castro gives, it is hugely successful for hype and building conversation but it absolutely is ass

i don't even bother using the clues to do anything but i guess make jokes it is it is uh as one of my uh friends said it looks like one of his it looks like the tip of his penis when it got smashed between 245 plates uh like no one a clue supposed to like give you the ability to guess what the workout is this this does not this does not and um maybe it's a fun game for some but uh for me the uh the clues are yeah yeah man but i'm glad pedro finds it from coffee pods and wads finds it as an inspiration to crack jokes and i appreciate that exhausted on her knees probably after a workout kelly baker i'm not competing this system after many prayers and conversations with my people my people i've decided i'm going to sit this one out eight months ago my husband and i started trying for a baby that means they've been boning a lot

without contraception for those of you don know, exchange of the baby batter. My thoughts were to keep competing until God decided the time was right for us. With that being said, we are just having a lot of boning sessions now. Oh, that's interesting. Okay. Well, time to make a baby. I know how much stress our body goes under competing professionally in a sport, which is the one thing doctors tell me to try to reduce in order to help our chances of getting pregnant. Alright. The great Kelly Baker. She's toast.

Turns the page. Time to have a kid. Good honor. It's always fun. Let me know if anyone needs any tips and tricks on how to have kids. I'm quite good at it myself. Breaking news.

Maybe this is, maybe this isn't going to affect our friend Hunter McIntyre. High Rocks. Some breaking news this afternoon. The High Rocks rulebook appears to have been updated and a new stronger anti-drug policy has been included. What's interesting is that they say stronger. I didn't think that they really had a drug policy. Just saying that drugs are illegal to me is not really a policy. The policy makes it clear that High Rocks will be adopting the WADA standards and that athletes as a condition of entry agree to testing. Still not much. What

we need to know is are they actually going to do testing? Rules that can't be enforced are not rules. They basically undermine the integrity of the cohort that falls under it. And you can see that in our big cities as they fall to shit. There's laws, but no one's obeying them and no one's enforcing them. At present, this is only in the singles and doubles rulebook, but we'd expect it in the relays before too long. Big out to someone someone for bringing this to our attention well done uh to high rocks for taking steps in this area as if drug policy is a good thing that's the presupposition have to get hunter on and ask him uh high rocks now they can be a real sport now i have drug testing now they now they can be taken seriously oh my goodness how about this, Seth, taking the world by storm? Listen to this. Listen to this.

Check this out. This is the winner of the coffee pods and wads around the whiteboard, making easy work of two of the greatest in the space, Andrew Hiller and Brian Spinn. Seth from Jump Ship and his beautiful wife. Here we go. Okay. We are live.

Back for another episode of Talking Ship this is i think i don't know episode five or something this is the journey through all my favorite old crossfit media uh joined today by my wife danny hi i was requested back by all of our fans yeah see a journey through old crossfit media hmm, check out the channel. It's called Jump Ship. And then do subscribe and all. And from the word on the street that Homeboy Smart. Smart, concise, and articulate.

And we're going to be talking more about smart, concise, and articulate in just a second. The strongest 13-year-old girl in the world. Crazy, right? Talia I hope I'm saying her name right Talia Bosaki Japanese last name? 13 year old Talia Squat cleans 100 kilos

220 pounds In today's session Programmed by 64 training systems Unfortunately Talia won't compete In this year's CrossFit Open Look at that smile Beam of light from that girl 13?

Talia won't compete in this year's CrossFit Open Because she's too young Off the back of being the youngest competitor At Wadapalooza last month She's tracking in the right direction Uh-huh For a big debut year in 2025 Nuts

Nuts Congrats Nuts. Congrats to Leah. And finally, Mal O'Brien was on the Be Friendly podcast with Brian Friend and Patrick Clark. No kinks in Mal's armor. Presented way better than I could have ever presented at 19 years old.

Came across smart, intelligent, in the process of being well thought out. But I don't know if I would use the word vulnerable it sounds like from from the little tidbits that I got from the podcast itself it sounds like she reached out to the be friendly fitness camp to Patrick O'Brien or someone on her team did and said hey can she come on she wants to talk she described the experience as being wanting to do it for therapeutic reasons to kind of talk it out. She was incredible at talking it out.

The first 27 minutes are nothing that I was interested in, and then at 27 minutes it picks up. The first 27 minutes are like talking about how she positions her hands maybe on a rower or what place she took it at games or fine details and nuances and sort of this this uh rehashing of her entire career and then around the 27 minute mark i think i think that's it there's a 10 minute segment in there where she she uh superficially and uh eloquently Eloquently and with a high articulation describes her exit and sort of what her status is without getting too deep, but lays it out there. Wonderful. She did an amazing, amazing job. It was great to see her out there. It was great to watch it.

Amazing job. It was great to see her out there. It was great to watch it. I kept getting interrupted by calls. I even listened to it at 1.75 time to try to catch up to the live show. The audio was perfect. Her voice was perfect. She's a pleasure to listen to. Congrats, Mal O'Brien. And that's the news. See you guys tomorrow. Bye-bye.
