Tongans are massive. I saw this guy play at World Cup last year. Absolute monster of a center. Luckily he never passed the ball which meant Canada could send three guys to tackle him. Alipate Fatafehi 6'3 250 lbs

Just read the Crossfit White Paper for the first time and I need some clarification. 1) Robb Wolfe's website is not allowed to be mentioned on the forums but GNC is allowed to Sponsor the games? 2) There are to be no mentions of Greg Everett or Rippetoe on the forums but the teachings of CF Enduranc...

Holy Fuck, this is to good to be true. Meet Shokhin Danila. The man at the top of the 12.1 leaderboard for burpees. I'm not knocking his accomplishments but I am rather surprised the elite @fitters couldn't beet an unaffiliated russian gymnast [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjTAbYhEc08[/you...

today is submission day for the open and already people are taking to FB to complain about the gaymes website. It should be fun watching the fb page fill up with comments and complaints about the website in the next 8 hours. It looks like a lot of the same complaints as last year. People are having ...

The defender, world cup winner Piri Weepu, gets dumped on this attempted tackle.

My workouts have been virtually the same for the past six season and I did not get 1% stronger - Ryan Braun I didn't know that Braun did @fit. Now he has to deal with rumors he has herpes and does @fit. I don't know which is more embarrassing. Where is that quote from? That was from his talk with t...

- Ryan Braun

I didn't know that Braun did @fit. Now he has to deal with rumors he has herpes and does @fit. I don't know which is more embarrassing.

So Chicago is hosting the Regional's on the same weekend as the G8 Nato Summit. That place is going to be a shit show with all the gas mask wearing @fitters being confused with protestors and being peppersprayed by the police

The swearing in this picture is what I expect from @fit but I am shocked that Reebok would have something like this associated with their brand. Stay Classy!

You would never guess that couch has a major sponsorship with a sports fashion and apparel company. He is one drink away from wearing one of those shirts with an elastic band at the bottom

Slow load times on the gaymes site already. Couldn't watch submitted videos either. I'm betting the site crashes on Sunday when everyone is trying to load their scores.

The Athlete will move from flat on the ground to touching an object with both hands that is 6 inches above their max reach. Score is total reps completed. How the fuck are the affiliates ...

Hi, I have an important question whilst awaiting the first WOD... As an affiliate owner - CrossFit East Lothian/Edinburgh , do I validate my own workouts? Also, I see FGB is the last WOD, are we allowed a sub for rowing, as we don't have one. Cheers. hahahaha, these idiots cant even keep their mout...

I guess some people never learn. From the gaymes fb page So sad I won't be competing this year :( ruptured achilles in last years 11.2 wod still hasn't healed enough to compete. Will be watching though, and praying you guys add a 40-45 masters next year - PLEASE!!! You fucking blew you achilles jump...

The Open starts in a few hours and already people are confused. I don't know why, the instructions are clear as mud. Whoever is managing the CrossFit Games competition for an Affiliate will need to have a registered Athlete Profile. This person may be the owner of the Affiliate or someone tasked wit...
