      @@AlexJuric cool bro but I bet you can’t lift. Try focusing on several things at once and getting good at them all, not great. It’s a very challenging sport. It’s pretty easy to get excellent at one thing if you focus on it. It’s why decathletes are the best athletes in the world, they are well rounded. As high level cross fitters are without a doubt the fittest people in the world. If you don’t agree, you’ve obviously never did the workouts.

    Games organizers should stop making those crossfit guys do stuff they are not good at. As a triathlete (and runner first) I can't do but laugh at such a freak show. It doesn't do justice to those athletes competing. I would have destroyed them all on this row-swim-run, and that is not even because I am that good. They are just outside their field of competence. Make them do things more suited to their background or training. I want to be impressed, not laugh.
