Silly quote, but I agree with what he's (hopefully) saying under the covers there...if someone walked up to me and actually grabbed the bar while I was working out, they'd get an earful. That's even less safe than most of the crap @Fers do, other than throwing the bar back and forth during thrusters.

Maybe Welborn has been partying too much to pay his internet bills.

Crossfit Balboa isn't up either, which is the affiliate he works at or owns, or whatever.

Man, there are a fucking shitload of XF affiliates in Cali.

Snatching the 95 lb bar out of some scrawny Cultfitter's hands won't lead to injury.

I can't see Welbourn breaking with couch this early in the game. However, given that couch's band of nutswingers might feel threatened by a real live athlete, you never know what could happen.

That and the rumors of dissent coming out of Cultfit Football and the fact that some more well known Cultfit hangers on are putting out that Cultfit Football is a better training plan because of the increased strength emphasis.

I'd pay good money to see Welbourn twist Castro's head off.

Indeed, Brutha Shaf.
I only know that many are nothing more than someones back yard transformed into a workout space for a few of the neighbors and interested passers-by. That sums up my experience working out with @fit Huntington Beach. Nice people who had a decent house right next to the Bolsa Chica Wetlands. We ran about half a mile to a hill where we did hill sprints for about 10 min.; ran back to the house where we did their WOD (IIRC, thrusters, dips, wallball, run). It was me and 4 hausfraus going at it. They also did a load of stretching which was frowned upon by the @fit cognescenti.

There were, at the time, about 4 other affiliates in Huntington Beach alone that were nothing more than that. I believe the recent trend is to encourage bigger, better, badder affiliates. As a matter of fact, I was rudely awakened yesterday by Andy Petronak and his CFLA bunch on the local morning news. Interesting.

Little birdie chirping in my ear tells IGxers and lurking @Fers...

Brian Mackenzie (CFE head douche) owns the @FFB and @F Balboa domain names.

Story is he's extorting money from Welbourn for both of them. Seems he's pissed about being left out of the new Paleo Brands business and wants more $$ from the involved parties.

No one would ever accuse any of the @Fers about being money-hungry, though, would they?

Rip leaving the fold, internal conflicts between the @F splinter groups, what's next? The @F implosion will *not* be televised...

I am quite disappointed that I have not seen that @fitter in my gym lately. Hopefully he was injured.

I would imagine most crossfitters lie about that shit. Nobody interrupts anyone at the gym, even if they are going to fuck themselves up while you are watching, seemingly.

The money thing will be the downfall.

When I first met the x-fitters, it was mostly small groups doing stuff in small places.

Franchise cannabalism ruins most ponzi schemes.

I would agree. The only "interruption" I remember ever seeing was when someone needed a bar pulled off of his chest. Unfortunately, I've seen that several times over the years.

Next thing you know, the @F affiliates will be thinking their programming is better than the mainpage WOD (Pfffffft! Ya right! No way hoser!), only to start hosting their own blasphemous seminars where they might actually teach...wait for it...how to program workouts for yourself!!!

I'm going to start a born again christian crossfit affiliate group. The logo is going to be Jeebus nailed to a cross followed by 'fit.' I'm also going to have t-shirts made of Pukie throwing up all over the place whilest carrying a large wooden cross on his back.

The only problem I may encounter is that I can't draw.

You should have just done it and not said anything.

Finding someone to draw that is easy.

Don't waste brilliant ideas by posting.

No CrossFit Affiliate site was found...sorry.
seems an odd message. If you type in many other ex affilates you just get nothing.

Normally I would mock these faggots the way I mock 225 deadlifters offering a deadlift clinic at their "box' on saturday...however Coach Rutt is a bad man. I would train with him in a heartbeat. His shit makes sense and his athletes actually do shit and win. I think that ME and CFSB and CFFB all program better than main page. Look at Everett doing the king kong wod on youtube..fucking killed it while 2008 champ gets owned. Orlando crushed it as well and you know he isn't wadding it

Some interesting stuff has gone on here today. Couch is going to have one hell of a mess on his hands in a few months time if things keep up like this.

Let's not forget David Morgan either, the actual Olympian, doing it with even heavier weights than the rest.


The comments on that video are a riot. If I had a penny for every time a weak-ass CrossFitter criticized the ROM of a guy a magnitude stronger than him, I'd be one rich man. Granted, if that video were posted two years ago, I probably would have to give myself a penny. Thank goodness I forgot my interval.

I have surplass hate for Tony Pudding and Dave Castrate equally. The true reason I train is to get hard enough to rip Tony's head off and shove it up Dave's ass. My hate for them could start a religion! At least B-boi had the stones to leave the fold. He was killing it with Blaur and Couch had to come and make nice so they could sell certs all year on the East.

It really looks like that guy is just playing around. He probably wouldn't even need to drop into a squat for those cleans. Shit talking @fitters aint got nothing on him.
