I’m starting CrossFit this week and this has helped a lot. THank you!
Thanks bro. All very helpful and important things to take note of.
Ego lol. Meahwhile all you see are fashion queens (guys) and selfie queens (mostly girls, but some guys).
Hey, how’s things?,
Amazing Video.
What other hacks have you got?
I am looking at other tip websites
Thanks again
https://youtu.be/kwW2zAiR-Ew
I wish i knew my coach was a a complete psyco my first day. He seemed so nice at the begining! Today im thankful, but when i started jesus!
Hi thank you so much for this video, please do you have some tips, to avoid injuries?
To me this kind of sounds like a dumb question but with CrossFit does it just focus on legs and arms or does it work on the core too? because that’s one of my biggest insecurities and wondering if this is right for me
Wish I knew these things before starting Crossfit! Look forward to your next video! Keep ‘em coming.Thanks, Coach!!
What are the most important factors when choosing a CrossFit gym?
Loving the videos as always, but really missing Jas! Can’t wait to hear her infectious laughter again soon.
Nice video, but you need to get yourself some royalty-free music to play during workout montages/time-lapses, instead of just silence!
hello mate just trying to get into crossfit now but in my place there is no gym in to this yet. I am a 30 years old guy and have no gym tools. is there any video of full body course on youtube or any other source? Thanks a lot..sincerely you gave us great tips.
So…..I went to my first cross fit yesterday after not having worked out steadily in 3 months because of school and 3 jobs………and while everyone at the gym looked like they walked straight out of a sports illustrated magazine……I could barely do the damn weighted lunges and burpees…….this was the biggest wakeup call everrrrrr…so I will be referring to this for…reference and humility as I proceed with my journey…..thank you:(
This is just common sense for any exercise, not just Crossfit.
you are beast bro-wished you could have made your dream come true
Absolutely great tips, by the way what do u do for your teeth, they r so white and healthy looking
#5 is the biggest one. I’m 46 years old and life long athlete, but if I tried to keep up with a technical movements at the weight my ego felt I was capable of, I would have been injured in the first week. Go slow, focus on technique, and never decide on a weight without considering the volume.
About to start sunday and have never worked out really. Thank you for this love 274 lbs now joined a 6 week challenge wish me luck
“Move with better quality and you’ll become a better athlete” Luv it. Great motivation!
Thanks for posting this. I did my first CrossFit session last night and am feeling it today! I do need to keep reminding myself not to compare myself to others and to work within my limits.
Wow. I started crossfit just over 3 weeks ago, but I’ve been doing EVERYTHING you have mentioned in this video! Seriously!!!! Keeping track of my workouts is the best thing though. I played sports my whole life and used to workout at the gym but nothing beats crossfit (not even rugby). There’s always room for improvement and I don’t usually sweat much but I didn’t realize how much i could sweat until i started crossfit. Working out with a group of people and their occasional fist pumps and high fives + having a trainer shouting at you (i.e., “you CAN f**king do this, good job! Two more!”) is one of the BEST things about crossfit. You don’t work out to “look good.” You work out to be STRONGER, which is what i love about crossfit ❤️.
I think one big misconception about CrossFit is you have to be super fit to it. Anyone can do CrossFit. Everything can be scaled to you’re level and you can build on that.
Tomorrow finish my First Month in Crossfit and all this advises are going to help more than you think they can ���� in this month i dont have many rest days and i m not carrying my diet, and the most important… When I fail a movement i feel bad and anxious for being good so now I know those movements are going to be better and better with the time so thanks ����������♀️
Great video and it applies on body building too so nothing was new. I’m getting into the whole crossfit thing, so hopefully your channel will be helpful in the next few days to help me get the right form before I apply my own form lol
Kindly help me with how should i develop strength?��both upper and lower body
I cant even ohs a pvc pipe when i started crossfit. Took me 6 monhts to ohs a 20kg. Now.. after 3 monhts.. able to ohs 50kg. Youre absolutely right… technique first, strength second. Good video!!
Thank you for sharing this…I’m starting CrossFit because I want more than just walking on a treadmill. I get so bored on treadmills.
Really cool! No 1 is a biggy, i have a tantrum if i dont make it to crossfit, i do have to tell myself over and over again its..ok! Let it go, breathe.. Calm down, theres always tomorrow lol thank you for the tips:)
My biggest mistake was going to cross fit even when you don’t feel well
Don’t push it. Get rest. It is not 24 hr fitness
My first CrossFit coach emphasized that the “magic” happens on the rest days between workouts. She stressed taking active rest (yoga, spin, walk/run) as well as total rest. It helped me to think of days off as “magic” days. Also, I listen to my body. I started CrossFit at 58 after nearly 40 years of working out in one form or another that included running, racquetball, karate, yoga, boot camps, etc., and I know what my body needs, what injuries I’ve had and want to avoid, and how hard I can push, as long as I get my ego out of the way! Ensure technique over increasing weight EVERY TIME.
I think these are good tips for starting any exercise program
Can’t wait to see you crush it at the games reppin’ South Florida! God bless!
Select the right muscle groups for training…for instance burpees with pull ups. It’s quite easy to schedule poorly and lose it or get injured
Hey dude. Great video. I just started crossfit and these tips are great for me. I made a video response to this post. Well it’s kinda like a remake of your vid, but I’m applying it to myself. Have a look https://youtu.be/zlwLUMCVT_I
I just started going two months ago. Im having fun and learning alot.
Couple more weeks for podium ���� can’t wait to say…told yaaaaa….noooooice ����������������
Saving this for later.
1. Rest days are important.
2. Nutrition is key.
3. The exercises are challenging. Technique first, then strength.
4. Log all workouts so you can track your progress.
5. Leave your ego at the door.
Just stumbled on this video. I would emphasize that it’s ok to scale! Great video!
Great points!! Besides eating clean, i personally had to up my water intake! People overlook how important water intake is, especially when putting your body through rigorous workouts. I noticed i tended to be less sore while keeping my musclea hydrated. Also, people should embrace the power of stretching and flexibility. Some things that personally helped me progress. ��
Hello! my friend, I like to watch your vídeos, I finish my college and now I´m dedicating in my english classes, I´m trying to speak a litlle rsrsrs and I´m trying to be strong in my gym kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
SUCCESS IN YOUR CHANNEL MY FRIEND.
Não acredito. Eu estava treinando com uma YouTuber e não sabia. ���������� vc eh incrível ��
i love how he’s all about strict pull ups when everybody has been saying how bad kipping pull ups are for you for years but crossfitters have never listened.
Crossfit is a completely racist sport. Yet another example of white people trying to pretend they are superior, simply of the millennial variety.
That’s what made me feel so uncomfortable when I went top a crossfit box for first time: it was a whites only zone.
Look at crossFit finals: its basically spot the non white person. As if white people are actually the fittest on the planet LOL. Complete white supremacist propaganda.
CROSSFIT IS BASICALLY A 21st CENTURY EXPRESSION OF WHITE SUPREMACISM.
CrossFit is not different a MMA or jiu jujitsu is injured in any sport so do it!!
Good job. Helpful information. I agree that CrossFit pushes constant variety in programs and produces results.
Thank you Sarah. Most I knew, some I didn’t but I love the humor you add. And man! your girl is getting big!
Speaking for my fellow bro’s. We don’t Crossfit. Because if we Crossfit, then we don’t lift. #everydayisarmday
Sorry to say that the Duck’s quack not echoing is a myth. I Googled straight away and found this link https://www.liveabout.com/myth-busted-a-ducks-quack-doesnt-echo-3298983
Good stuff mate. Applicable to not just cross fit but any other type or sport/work out
You’ve got ink on your bicep. That is bad-ass. I dig it:)
with allthough respect for the athletes, one thing i find so ugly, unhealthy for spine and unprofessional is those swinging pullups OMG… why?? do less but do it correctly, its only my opinion.
Guess this guy is either on holiday or doesn’t work at anything but fitness for a living?
I love how you said “tortillas” very fluently �������� im trying to get into crossfit in hopes I can fulfill my dream in getting into the crossfit games. Totally new to this stuff but am so determined!!
It so cool to see you can be good a long distance running and be so strong! That’s what I want to be like
I don’t wanna offend crossfiters, but I can see that some of them kinda have a bubble gut???? ( in a much lower development as the bestial bubble gut of some bodybuilders ) but anyways it seems that their abs are pushing out of the belly. PLS ANSWER IF U KNOW D REASON
Very good advice..will keep that 5 point of advice before i start my crossfit
My brother use to be my bodybuilding partner then he joined CrossFit.. now I have a sister.:/
All true Adding stretch and mobility time becomes more important as you continue. I am 64 and enjoy Crossfit for sure and plan another 10 years of community fitness
Reppin the always sunny Florida. Cool athlete bro. Work hard! Good luck!
Hi Noah, im a fan from Chile, im just wandering what do you usually eat for dinner?
thanks and keep it up!
I’m happy to give you some of my bands music to use for free. Big crossfit fan so ����♂️
I like You Noah. But.. Those air squats from video were no reps.
withoit many water(yellow hair/broken lips) = suicide(thick blood = kill heart)
time to train x3/day? please explain how you fit it in?or is it that you just dedicated all time to crossfit and rely on sponsorship?
Didn’t know you could roll your “R” like that! I hit the subscribe button as soon as I heard about them TORTILLAS @ 6:34 / 9:33
I subscribed because you are funny, good luck at the games man
Good luck, Noah. By the way, you used a zero for spelling “of” in this video’s title instead of the letter “o”.
I have you in 3rd plave this year, do your part so I can win the 2 million ��
Someone knows if these guys are or not on roids? Wtf looks so big but so natural and healthy
I often wonder how these people make a living if Crossfit doesn’t pay directly for them to train 24/7 just for this. What a life.
Your vlogs are great!! Please keep them coming! I love them!
Noah, I watch your road to the games episode whenever I need a push or whenever I feel like watching an amazing athlete at work. You are the true meaning of hard work and fun at the same time. I am super excited to see you at the games, I know you can podium! Keep working hard!
Noah please do more vlogs. Like a lot more haha. The Xwerks videos of last year made me so happy but I need new ones.
Also good to learn is crossfit lingo and acronyms. When u first walk into a box you have no clue what it all means. So good to familiarize yourself before hand.
Amazing physique, amazing personality, there is only one amazing Grace.
I love you worked out with a class just like a regular person!
Makes me happy to see more vlogs!! Thanks for the great content!!
You are the guy i´ve been putting my money on since your first trip to the games! i´m a huge fan of how hard you work without forgetting about have fun in the process!! Keep pounding Noah! and go get that podium this year!
Another great one! You look ready to crush the games! Let’s go Noah! #happybuthungry
Noah, what program are you using to edit. Great vlog bro. Love looking into your world.
Can you talk more about Rx and who it is for and how long it normally takes people to get to it etc?
Hi. Great video. Will it help in losing fat? I mean joining a crossfit is okay if I currently am overweight and would like to lose fat?
I’m so triggered that you don’t think I’m going to the games. You don’t know my life. Also, the see-food diet is scientifically backed. This is garbage. Love ya bud and I love this. ��
One thing I wished I knew before started Crossfit………..the CEO is a piece of shit
legitimately probably the best tip for training period ������������Legend
I have spent the last year pretty much binge watching your blogs from the first one you uploaded! In that time I’ve moved from the middle east, got married, moved to china and had to leave china due to the outbreak and now me and my wife are at my mums in the UK until we move back to the middle east. My point is, these videos keep us motivated and inspired every day. When we finally catch up, we wont know what to do with ourselves. So good to see Ciaran in the blogs again. During the lockdown could we have an update on the old faber family?!?! Wheres adam!?!?
Keep up the awesome work guys.
Keep healthy + stay safe x
Sadly that factoid about the ducks quack has been proven wrong. Ducks quacks do echo.
Just as I got sad for finding out HstlMade Launch 9 is closed…another vlog gets uploaded. We’re back!!:) still annoyed I missed the launch though!! haha!
My shoulders click… cant do anything where my shoulders are used in any way, they click and hurt a bit… What can I do to fix this? Any good exercises?:) Really enjoy your vids, very inspiring! Keep up the good work:)
@teamrichey hey craig please can u release a video with 5 exercises to improve the shoulder mobility and explain them each one so we can train them properly. Thank you!
This might be one of the best of your tips�� especially for ya who’ve been doing crossfit for a longer time. Back to basics, quality over quantity and ego out of the window. Pretty hard thing to do, but we train to be healthier and stronger. Not to get injured. Great and very inspiring video again Team! Thanxxx��
we aren’t comparing basketball to crossfit though… we are comparing other weigh training and calisthenics. Why bring in things that dont have relevance unless its obvious that crossfit produces more injuries?
You look extra Lean. Or am I nutty? Was it the cardio you were doing while not being able to lift as much with the back?
That CF Bua in Dublin? Their team was great at Filthy 150 team of 4.. Was thinking of making the 200 mile trip for a drop in session there.
Dudes are racing each other? Why they trying to WIN at exercise?
Does the strict chest to bar help with shoulder stability Craig? I’m battling a shoulder issue at the moment, basically pain with internal rotation.
Craig would you say that in order to get better or develop strength for strict chest to bar pull ups, using a band is a good progression?
Watching some of your old videos and then time travelling to the present! The difference is real yo!
I have litereraly been sitting here spaming the like button for 10 minutes�� Everyone SMASH that like button!!
To quote someone I heard the other day at my box “I use to look like a flamingo when I planned my own stuff. My legs were sticks”. Just had to share
Was looking into joining a box near me after watching crossfit videos. Pulled up the webpage to my nearest box and saw that your the head coach there. Awesome.
Destroyed the like button like u said… can I get another one now? <3
Why is a cross fit gym called a box???? Surely its just a gym….
Anybody else stop at 6:35 and go to Google the duck echo and then come back to finish?
Love it!! Love that you show technique and encourage us to “race” ourselves I think this is the hardest thing for most of us to remember, so thank you!
So a duck’s quack certainly echoes around our reverberation chamber, so a duck’s quack does echo…. When you want to hear an echo, you usually make a very loud noise to make sure the reflection can be heard. But a duck quacks too quietly, so the reflection is too quiet to hear. Ducks don’t quack near reflecting surfaces.
Totally agree.. that’s why I’m usually last in the wod. Haha
yeah, it totally makes sense what you said craig. Good advice
Broke a bone in my foot over the weekend (Damn team sports).
Decided that I am just going to load up on Strict chest to bar pull ups and Ring dips. I will get fatter so I will in turn get stronger…Every cloud…
Love your videos, they are uplifting and educational! I have learned a lot from watching them! It is so awesome you get to hang out and train with the best in the world! Keep up the sick content!
Ciaran does know that duck quacks do echo right? �� There is a whole tv show dedicated to these kind of myths ������ #duckquacksdontecho #leemack
You spelled technique wrong, but great video and tips!!! Sorry for being the grammar nazi. My technical writing class has ruined me. Lol
This morning I had a hard workout it was 80 wall balls 60 TTB 40 pistols 20 muscle up/ chest to bar you should try
Wow you have so many subscribers now #strongestteamonyoutube
fuuck my skill in english isnt enough to try to understand speaking so fast:) and sub its regular written xD
You’re such a terrible actress, that you should be put top dog in American Idol;) Loll
Beginning was hilarious!
I love that these usually go live right when I sit down at workthanks for the reason to procrastinate every day!
