Would highly recommend this course to anyone out there looking to further their knowledge and understanding around Crossfit, Nutrition, teaching, and it’s principals 🤓 was an epic seminar 😎
Hey Craig, where did you get the information about the L1 course dates and where to book on? I've joined a box and have been doing CrossFit as well as continuing some bodybuilding type stuff also for the last few months and am loving it =) Your channel has been a part of my CrossFit journey, loving the videos mate. Thanks for everything =)!!
I’m one month into CrossFit learning what I can, at a ripe young 50 years old with joints creaking and everything sore.. Your vids are great. Really enjoy them but also good learning in them as well. Inspiring. And her laugh is infectious! You guys rock.
The reason people buy Slim-Fast is because they're low in fat. If that bar had 12 grams of fat instead of 12 grams of sugar, it'd have 60 more calories. Sugar is 4 calories per gram, where as fat is 9 calories per gram. Yes, it's highly processed and will give you an insulin spike, but it is good if you're strictly counting calories.
No type of food is the enemy; everything is fine in moderation. Thinking like that leads a lot of people into eating disorders. Sugar is an easily digestible carb and an immediate energy source, and is also found in every fruit and vegetable you've ever eaten. Sugar is not the enemy. Gluttony is the enemy.
Always really happy and motivated, bloody loves training, I love it. I will be trying 10 strict chins on the minute for 10 minutes. Also, I’ve started doing toes to bar, not cross fit style as they yank my shoulders too much. But I like them. Have you tried the following: 1 minute chin up, 30 seconds up, 30 seconds down, it’s brutal. Also, try, as many strict chin ups in 3 minutes, the aim is 50, they must be strict. Let me know how you get on. Good luck in your exams Craig & Jaz
They do it everywhere! Telling everyone it’s going to be “Fran”. My L1 was Epic! I’ve done it in Aromas, the amazing ranch! And what a team did I have! 2 Crossfit Games athletes! Loved it! Was an amazing experience
Me encanta el buen rollo que tenéis en el CrossFit siempre hay buen ambiente aunque no os conozcáis.Y lo de ver como personas comienzan y se esfuerzan como ese hombre de la barba es fenomenal. A ver si eres capaz de dejartela la barba así de larga .
I am back in leamington this weekend see my family... I live 100m down alley from you, love seeing your outdoor rig!! I've trained crossfit nearly 9 months now - I am also 18 weeks pregnant, any advice on preggo wods, I'm still able to do most, but belly getting in the way of cleans etc...me and the hubby hope to catch you, geoff and jas one day as super close @ your home gym.
So glad to hear you say that you found front wrack with a PVC pipe terrible because we did that in foundations tonight and I SUCKED! But was totally fine with a barbell and usually do front squats in my training anyway!
Tips for improving front rack mobility much appreciated. My arms / elbows simply done rotate to the angle they need to ! I’m having to hold the pipe 3” above where it should be resting !
Hey Craig, do you have any tips for grabbing the bar for T2B/pullups or taping the hands? I'm kinda new to crossfit and I love bar exercises but they are destroying my hands.
OMG I didn’t know you were in Belfast! Tbh I didn’t follow your channel when you were here but you definitely have to come back to Belfast & the Cookie Box milkshakes are unbelievable definitely have to get one when you’re next over 🤤
Would you only recommend L1 if you're already into CrossFit? I've been strength training for a long time and I'm looking to start CrossFit and learn the movements, and possibly one day coach. Should you have a pretty good knowledge of the movements beforehand, or do they teach you at the seminar? Thanks!
I really go a guilty conscience watching this video while eating pizza, because what he said about eating healthy for the open, but after watching it till the end. I do not why, but it is all gone. :D
I had great trainers and classmates helping me through this. Without them I would have given up. Unbelievable how much you can accomplish when your trainer encourages you on. Then suddenly you can do 5 thrusters unbroken when you thought you were about to die :D
What kind of mobility movements are you gonna add into your training for that dreaded PVC pipe, I have the same issue and would love to know what your plan is gonna be? Would love to see it in the vlog.
just did my level 1 2 weekends ago. still haven't done my first crossfit class/workout tho lol. everyone in the class as shocked. planning to do my first class this month tho
Oh man, it's so sad to see that crossfit is such a cashcow. These level-1 weekend seminars are a big reason, that there are a lot of bad cf-coaches outside. If you compare these to regular coaching-licences for weightlifting, gymnastics, conditioning and all-over sports, these level-1 seminars are only out there for making cash. It's nice to see in germany, that the most well knowledged coaches did regular coaching-licences and only did this level-1 course for calling thei box a crossfit box. I really like the idea of crossfit, but not the company behind it.

It’s on their website! Search Crossfit level one into google and it should come up with a page and all the dates and venues !
Cheers dude, I should have managed to think of that :L
So did you pass it? Get certified?
Crossfit level 1 is something I wanted to do, but got told you have to renew every 5 year's

Everybody needs a jas.
JAS'S BELLY LAUGH NEAR THE END! LMAO got me going
Got me too when editing 😂😂
Hahaha me too! Straight carb fog goodness 😂👌
Jas's laugh at 13:36 is so contagious 😂. Greetings from Chile
Absolutely love Hans in the background during thrusters and burpees, just grinding and feeling the pain! keep up the good work
Fredrik Olsson exactly what I was watching. @teamrichey was doing his thing but the pain train Hans got with had me cheering him on.
I had great trainers og classmates helping me through this. I think I proof that Crossfit is for everyone regardless of physical condition.
Fredrik Olsson he was going Hans solo in the back ground
14:57 Man of the year. you handled that so well my friend.
Jasmine’s laughter with that cookie made my night.

Emily sugar is the enemy, not fat

Emily agreed, I was being funny. No good eating crap with nearly 50% sugar
No worries, I'm just all about educating the people
this was a very informative video on cross fit thanks. I have always been strong and athletic thought I give this a try as an accomplishment.
I had Katie as one of my coaches at my level 1 also! Loved her!
It's insane how "heavy" a PVC pipe is at the end of the day. Have completed the L1 seminar. It's awesome! Good luck on the test. You'll both smash it!
12g is more than half of a 26g bar? Quick Maths! But seriously keep up the good work. Love these videos.
Loved the video, thought it was awesome to watch Hans in the background work through the WOD. Anyone can do Crossfit!

@TeamRICHEY did you try The 10
Chins on the minute every minute for 10 minutes? I did, it was tough
They do it everywhere! Telling everyone it’s going to be “Fran”. My L1 was Epic! I’ve done it in Aromas, the amazing ranch! And what a team did I have! 2 Crossfit Games athletes! Loved it! Was an amazing experience
Been watching for months but just subscribed to try and push you over the 80k number! Love the vlog. Keep up the good work.
You two are so fun.
Mechanics
Consistency
Intensity
Something so simple, yet so important and often neglected.
I enjoy when you talk about nutrition and what you eat
Me encanta el buen rollo que tenéis en el CrossFit siempre hay buen ambiente aunque no os conozcáis.Y lo de ver como personas comienzan y se esfuerzan como ese hombre de la barba es fenomenal.

Jas's laugh at 13:35 is the highlight of this video!

Jas' laugh is EVERYTHING.
Loved the video as always! Also the team has grown to 80k!!
👍🏻 Karl was one of my Coaches too. Great Guy! And great Seminar!
we did the same WOD after Day One! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🕺
Craig was fucking GETTIN IT!
So glad to hear you say that you found front wrack with a PVC pipe terrible because we did that in foundations tonight and I SUCKED! But was totally fine with a barbell and usually do front squats in my training anyway!
Steaders! top coach and great bloke. Used to be our owner /head coach at crossfit 3D in Manchester.
SlimFast Shakes are THE BEST thing I have found for weight gain! Drink one with every meal.... packs it on!
Omg, SO MANY squats at the L1. Never thought I'd be that sore from pvc!
Karl was also my level 1 coach! I got my level 1 while we lived in Japan 🇯🇵 my husband was in the Airforce.
You guys are awesome! Can't get enough of the puns
I had Katie on my level 1 course a couple of years back... great gal.
Agreed!!
You should see ULT Crossfit, Ayr on a Saturday/Sunday night - 30/40 people in at 8pm - No official class, just people loving to train!
Gotta loveJas bopping in the background 😊👍🏻
Tips for improving front rack mobility much appreciated. My arms / elbows simply done rotate to the angle they need to ! I’m having to hold the pipe 3” above where it should be resting !
Met Karl here in Shanghai and fairly sure he judged me on open 16.3 where I got my first (very questionable) bar muscle up! Good man!
Hey Craig, do you have any tips for grabbing the bar for T2B/pullups or taping the hands? I'm kinda new to crossfit and I love bar exercises but they are destroying my hands.
How much sugar has Jas had dancing around in the background 😂😂😂
15:07 :D :D So pleased to see I am not the only one who does a 'Happy Cookie' dance!
hans doing the burpees is my spirit animal
OMG I didn’t know you were in Belfast! Tbh I didn’t follow your channel when you were here but you definitely have to come back to Belfast & the Cookie Box milkshakes are unbelievable definitely have to get one when you’re next over 🤤
Craig almost lost his shit for a sec when she stole his cookie, i feel you dude
Would you only recommend L1 if you're already into CrossFit? I've been strength training for a long time and I'm looking to start CrossFit and learn the movements, and possibly one day coach. Should you have a pretty good knowledge of the movements beforehand, or do they teach you at the seminar? Thanks!
14:57 is every mans face when their girl says they don’t want anything to eat, but then steals their food 😂😂
Jas is hilarious!!!! Aghhh i cant!
I really go a guilty conscience watching this video while eating pizza, because what he said about eating healthy for the open, but after watching it till the end. I do not why, but it is all gone. :D
What's the test format? Fill in the blank? Multiple choice?
Jas going full Harley Quinn with the maniacal laugh because she was getting pizza had me crying, hilarious!!! I liked, I commented and I am OUT;-)
Good luck you guys got this
👊🏼
Awesome! I had Karl for my level 2 course! Such a cools dude!
CRAIGGGGG!!! Do a full day of eating... I miss those😀😀😀
1:46 I love the map. Greetings from the “Great Lakes”
That wod is killer! Did it at my level one also
Did Hans survive?
Barely
Hans Straumland way to go! People like you inspire me. Keep it up. Greetings from Germany
I had great trainers and classmates helping me through this. Without them I would have given up. Unbelievable how much you can accomplish when your trainer encourages you on. Then suddenly you can do 5 thrusters unbroken when you thought you were about to die :D
Hans Straumland thats what Crossfit is all about
Yeah Bro. . . I loved what I saw there. Great work. Keep on Brother.
Nice bro, congratulations. Just made my L1 seminar this last weekend too, we made the same WOD than yours i guess is for everyone.
You got off easy! In my L1 they made us do 3 RFT 15 thrusters @ 95lbs and 15 Burpees.
Dan Sherwood i believe that is what i had as well. Don't fully remember the numbers but i do remember that it sucked in the elevation
Hans is the best
really enjoy your vids
Living the crossfit dream!
Use don't need any luck, you'll both smash it 👌🏻👌🏻
TeamRICHEY videos where 12 is over half of 26 and we make lemons out of lemonade!
I had the same girl trainer at my level one a couple years ago in Minnesota!
They an online courses , do you think it worthy
I've got the same Level 1 T shirt
What kind of mobility movements are you gonna add into your training for that dreaded PVC pipe, I have the same issue and would love to know what your plan is gonna be? Would love to see it in the vlog.
VIRGINIA!!! REPRESENT! 💪🏼
That look at 15:00 is PRICELESS
9:12 what kind of tape are they using on the bar?
Luv the videos, keep up the good work, have I missed the chance for a TeamRichey tshirt?
just did my level 1 2 weekends ago. still haven't done my first crossfit class/workout tho lol. everyone in the class as shocked. planning to do my first class this month tho
3:22
I love that “f*ck cancer” shirt
How old do you have to be to take the L1 test and be certified?
Does it have to be almonds or would any type of nut be good?
Oh man, it's so sad to see that crossfit is such a cashcow.

It's funny to see Jas dance around after she gets sugar :D
It's a hell of a drug ;P
YES!! Reppin the VA!! (Virginia)
You were in Ireland, dam i could have met you and Jas, maybe next time come to Ireland and do a Meetup
What’s that Migos Track playing in the transitions?
I shit you not that song was playing on the radio when I started this video.....and Im Canadian
How much is the course guys? Was thinking of doing this the other day :)
Lol. Jaz chill with that sugar🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Was that a 'Pollo ad astra' from pizza express? officially the best pizza ever!
I HAD TO DO FRAN! day 1 and EVERYONE ripped their hands. over 5 years years ago though.
Whats the name of the first song?
Loved Jas dancing in the background at the tail end of the video. Too much sugar maybe?
Jas is like a machine: if you insert Pizza and Cookies it bobbles and dances for a long while afterwards 😂
TeamRICHEY that is an awesome machine! Also please tell me you finally got yourselves coffees and not put the gift card back in your wallet.
Yesss VIRGINIA!
Good luck for the test.
#TeamRichey for life
