And I have cash money that says you can't back squat 400, clean 300 and run a respectable 10k.
And that's not internet shit talking.
Good deal.
We have this handled! The 5k can substitute for the 10k I was talking about. Though there's certainly a difference between running the two.
That'll do pig That'll do.
So is there a bet or are you going to crawfish now?
And what the hell, where are all you timmy tough tits at when it comes time for race day in texas?
I've got the tough mudder dallas and houston and the 1/2 marathon coming up soon and all my buds are hurt or have bullshit to go to like weddings.
Damnit numb nuts.
It's fucking handled.
The fucking bet wasn't with you. Are you an asvab waiver or something?
As I said, numb nuts. Shit is handled.
How do you want me to prove my 5 or 10K time to you, and what do you consider a respectable time? I have video of cleans (305#) and back squat (440# ass to grass) dated within 60 days. I'm running a 5K at Lake Norman State Park, Mooresville, NC on October 11th to benefit mothers who've lost children. I anticipate running the 5K in about 23 (ish) minutes. So if you want to register and join our community, we'd be happy to have you. 25$ registration fee and whatever money you want to give me for this bet I will give to the foundation. That's a promise! Below is a link for you to register.

Put your money where your mouth is pard!
JBNj said:I would also say a respectable 5k would be right at the 20min or under. Typical average runners are doing the 5k in the 20-25 min mark. Crossfitters should do better being that they claim to be fitter. Winners usually fall in the 14-16 min mark.
For comparison purposes, after many years of being inactive i got my shit together and started training again. I went from a measly 185lb squat to 415lbs at a body weight of 148lbs within 1 year of training two years ago. I've also ran the 5k with brother in law at just under 20min without even training to run. Hardly any low intensity cardio was in my programming. My training has gone to shit after having my first kid and taking a second job, so no training for me now
Meh, your numbers are respectable. Not bad but not great either especially when accounting for all your years training. How much do you weigh if i may ask? When you say your in your best shape due to crossfit, are you forgetting your years training which has built you up to this point in your trainin life? I would guess your previous years is hugely responsible for where your at, and not crossfit. I would also say a respectable 5k would be right at the 20min or under.

Maybe just maybe my training protocol produced better results? Food for thought.
I've been seriously running for over a decade, to include numerous 10M/halfs and the Chicago Marathon, a countless 5K/10Ks....my 5K PR is 22:08.
If a "respectable" 5K is sub-6:30 miles then I guess I suck.

Check this out dude, in the post that got all of this started about the rock climber, the gymnast, and the crossfitter doing their respectable pullups, I CLEARLY was making the comparison that I thought the rock climber and gymnast were "specialist" at what they do and that they most likely are not well rounded athletes. My comparison is that competitive CrossFitters ARE well rounded and that the athletes in that example MOST LIKELY are not. The 300# clean, 400# squat, 500# deadlift, 325# bench press, 275# clean & jerk, 225# snatch, and a respectable 5-10K times (8 min/mile or better) are examples of what a well rounded athlete is. End of fucking story guy.
Any little ole fella in the world can sit in his grandma's basement CLAIMING all the things he can do. But unless you want to confirm that shit right here right now on this public forum go pound sand. PROVE it, or you can meet me somewhere on the East Coast here in mid October and we'll let our brothers in arms here on the hide decide what the physical conditioning test is and we'll go head to head. And lets add a stress shoot to it while our heart rate is 175 bpm. I'll tell you right now pard, I work with some hard pipe hitting bro's over here who workout 365 day a year and aren't as well rounded athletes as you CLAIM to be. I'm calling you a fucking liar right now bud. There was no reason to get personal about all this as its just opinions but now you have to chime in and act a fool. Post your shit here today or get back to playing World of Witch Craft or D&D.
Just so you know an 18min 3 mile time is 100% on the Marines PT test and not every one of those Devil Dogs score that high. To meet the Ranger standard you must run 5 miles in under 40 mins, average 8 min mile. A High Bar Back Squat full range of motion is hip joint below the knee. So don't go loading that bar up and just bend your knees a little and call that a fucking squat guy. I want to see your little 150 pound ass parallel squat 415#. Go look up Chris Spealler and tell me your more fit than he is.......even a better question, why haven't you been WINNING those CrossFit Games and earning that $250K prize money + all the endorsements. Give me a break, go troll somewhere else you fuckin hobbit.
To answer your question, I'm 5'9" 190lbs and 35 years old. AND never have taken steroids or and other illegal performance enhancer just in case that is your next claim or accusation.

Dude….Do you know what a squat is?
Rich Froning: has a listed 455lb back squat.
Matt Fraser: 485lb back squat.
Jason Khalipa: 450lb back squat.
Tommy Hackenbruck: 525 back squat.
Ben Smith: 480lb back squat.
These guys all finished in the top 10 in the WORLD at the Crossfit Games. None of them weigh less than 180lbs. Performance counts, talk is cheap. They had to successful navigate the open and regionals which is no easy task. Just to make it to regionals is a huge accomplishment. I can tell you from experience that having a 400lb legit, below parallel back squat is no joke. Anybody can put a bunch of weight on a bar, get underneath it and drop 4" and say they "squatted" it. Then they get laughed out of the room by the guys who actually know what they're doing.
I would think someone with your superior genetics, training discipline, and motivation should go to the games next year and win all of that prize money. At 148 lbs you should be able to crush everyone in all the bodyweight exercises. With your impressive lifting numbers I'm sure you'll shock the crowd… HAHA

Well. I'm glad to see my thread has become so popular. I'll give yall a little update. I took about a 1 month hiatus from crossfit to do a ridiculously low calorie diet which I'm sure wasn't health but I dpnt give a fuck. It got rid of about 25 lbs so I'm happy with that. I've now brought my calorie intake up to 800-1000 a day and started back to crossfit. I was rucking and running while doing the low cal. I lost a little bit of strength but not much. I'm going to do about 2 more weeks of this calorie intake which should bring me down to about 250. Im at 261 right now. Was 313 last Sept. Dont laugh fuckers. It could happen to you and it sucks greatly. I am now down to where I feel I can have a more effective workout and burn more calories. So I'm still doing crossfit and still making progress. Once I get to 250lb I'll raise my calories up to about 1800 and try to lose the rest of the weight ina "healthy" way. My eeventual goal is 215-220lb. Im 6'0 and when I went and got on one of those bodyfat analysis machimes at the doctor it said I had 197 lb of lean mass so he agreed 220 would be a comfortable weight to maintain for me. Who knows if I get that far down I may go for it and try to get all ripped and shit but that is a long way off. Right now I'll just take it a lb at a time. I leave in three weeks to go to Wyoming for an elk hunt which is what got all this started. Now I hope next year to do a tough mudder. Fitness is addictive and once you see some results its hard to quit. Because at the end of the day being fat sucks a d there is just no way around that.

Yes i know what a squat is. Do you know who Kyle keough is? Or some other lifter that actually squat more than those guys you listed above. Top 10 in the world in crossfit doesn't fascinate me due to the fact is not all the top athletes in the world competed in the crossfit games.
Kyle keough 148lb lifter, walk around weight 155-160lbs
Kyle Keough (148): 1405-lb. Total, RUM VII - YouTube
And since you want to be facinated if i know what a squat is here ya go. Don't pay attention to that ugly mug.
This was the last set (as many reps as possible)set of Wendler 5/3/1 afterwards i ended up maxing out
Form check 295lb squat x7 rep pr. BW 145lb - YouTube
345lbs after 5 months of training usin Wendler 5/3/1 variation, beginning six months to a little after 1 year smolov jr was my squat routine mainly.
Form check 345lb squat max effort 15lb Pr. BW 145lb - YouTube
Apparently my gym had a strict no cellphone video recording policy which is why I don't have further videos of my pr. Never claimed to be the fastest or strongest or fittest just posted my results. People like kyle keough and others are pushing some serious weight around for little guys.
If it was then ive lost 5 inches of muscle right around my waist. Dude you are a world class douche bag. I mean it's fine if you don't agree with the way other people chose to do things but there is really no reason to just be a dick all the time. Like the other dude said I'll do what Im doing and you do what you do. Fuck, thats why I hate posting on this forum
