With as much equipment Rouge has at the games, why aren’t they using the echo bike?

I’ve wondered the same thing. I guess Crossfit already had an agreement with concept for rowers and ski erg and however makes assault bikes for bikes.

The Echo is a better piece of equipment.

I snuck one by Reebok by using a 40% off code on 2019 CFG gear. Three shorts were listed at $190 total and I paid $119. It was three that the men wore this weekend.

Code doesn’t work anymore.

Rich has been there for 10yrs......8 golds and 2 silvers.

And......every athlete atop the podium this year trains in cookeville.

Awesome how the competition is set up for actual Olympic team weightlifters to win it.

How boring

Olympians shouldn’t be allowed to compete.

It’s a competition to see who is the fittest on earth, not the fittest on earth, except you Olympic Competitors.

Lol, it was a hot take based on Fraser and Toomey winning the clean competition, which were the only clips I saw.

The ending to the men’s was pretty awesome to see Fraser pushed like that

Happy for Noah he comes off as one of the nicest dudes out there with an always positive outlook on things. Crazy he got in bc Vellner got in from the open giving him the WZA spot.

On the ladies end no one stood a chance vs Tia. Surprised to see Jamie Green finish in third. Katrin made that late run but she should not have even made the cut if Brook didn’t get that penalty.

As far as the cuts. They were good the first two events but after that it was too much. Not being able to see some of our favorites out there sucks. I like how Tia called out Castro twice on that.

Pretty much that more athletes deserve to be on the competition floor at the weekend

It really does hurt the ones who work their way into the weekend and don’t come out super hot.

Coming out the gun hot definitely killed Vellner and Fikowski

I like the cut down to 10 but it shouldn’t happen until Sunday.

Tia is machine. Sure, she won the clean competition, but she also beat everyone (including the men) on the swim & paddle. She was 4th or better in 10 events with 5 first place finishes.

Now, if you toss out the clean for the men, Ohlsen actually wins the men’s side. Fraser’s background is Olympic lifting, but he never competed at the Olympics.

The look on Fraser face during the clean was straight A type

Not many dudes out there have that killer competitive look like him
