I’m a video editor. I know how hard is to put together a 37 minutes video that can keep people engage… but I’m also one of your biggest video consumer and I’m REALLY liking your 20+ min video. Please keep them coming 🙏🏾
Especially when the mic died half way through and you don’t know until 3 hours later 😅
@@hillerfit oh F* well 🤣
What they don't understand is that the pricing to be an affiliate it's to high for most of the countries. For example, I live in Brazil, and in my city 5 years ago, we had maybe 4 affiliates gym. Today we have none. However, we have maybe 10 cross gyms not paying nothing to the company. For the prices that the gyms charge us, the gym would have to get 15 people paying for 12 months just to pay crossfit, and that's crazy. It would be more reasonable if they study the local economies to see how much the gyms can pay to be a crossfit affiliate. Now imagine how many crossfit affiliates they are losing just in Brazil with 230 million people and over 5.000 cities....
The production value and overall quality improvement over time of your videos is absolutely nuts
Where he finds clips is my favorite part! His memory bank of movie clips and where to place them is amazing
The dog loosing weight video to videos now is night and day different.
@@PCtheCrazyAsian yeah, like the Dexter ones a couple of weeks ago
@@CoffeePodsAndWods hahaha
Oh man not the thumbnail.
Also the fact that he calls it "dot" is kind of cute. Go adorable.
If anyone other than Alexis called me cute, a piece of me would die inside lol
Hearing him say “24 dot 3” made me cringe. I hear some call The Open The Opens. The hair on the nape of my neck stands straight up 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤬
Great video. You can clearly see that no one at HQ is providing candid feedback to these “goals” (or no one is listening)
They have lost the mission of what CrossFit really is. He’s 100% trying to turn this into a Franchise model
“Maybe it was the zone 2” 😂😂😂
They will need to setup a CrossFit business startup package (weights & equipment) and appropriate CrossFit specific business training and possibly a cheap loan facility to have a chance of doubling the affiliates.
That intro for DeCoons was 2 good. DeCoons does seem like a good dude though after watching that interview.
Agree 100%.
In my opinion Mat Fraser is not a Crossfitter. He's a guy that was great at the sport of Crossfit. It seems like he always tries to distance himself from the Crossfit community and the sport unless there's money to be made.
Yeah. He was a genius.
Drop the mic
Mat is a grifter.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one saying this!
He’s full of himself.
"oh well" will never get old.
Just like, it doesn’t matter what you think.
Killing me.
Absolutely 😂
Best parts of the videos
I love watching Hillers progression in making and editing videos!
How lucky that Matt finally got to meet B Friend! 🎉🎉🎉
I’m glad i found your channel. Finally someone saying it like it is and pointing out the BS.
Haha 40lbs in 4 months had me like ….. 👀👀…..🤣🤣
I’m seriously literally out loud laughing at the thought of 600 people outside of a strip mall CrossFit location at 6am…hope it’s attached to a Walmart so there’s enough parking
I wonder if Brian paid Fraser to come on the podcast…
Great question.
Brian needed some views 😅😅
No fraser had to pay brian
Hey Mat .... tell us you've done 💉 without telling us you done 💉 😂😂
everyone already knows.
I can't believe he said that!
@@TheHazchic what and when did he say it in the video?
How did he do that? I missed it
Go to 4:39
I couldn’t watch the Kettlebells and Cocktails and not think, wait a minute that’s not DeCoons voice!!!
Dude , you on fire, lm loving this video, fucking brilliant, shoutout from South Africa
The franchise playbook side glance and page flip was hilarious
I haven't even watched this but he would be HORRIBLE at affiliate programing. He has never even done affiliate programming. There is no one further out of touch with gpp.
So true
I suppose he isn't the one writing it
Like if he would be the one programming it dude. He has coaches working for him
@@danimal.94if that’s the case, then what’s the allure of the program? Either it isn’t him writing it, so there’s nothing making it stand out amongst all the other programs, or it is him writing it, and it’s not appropriate for average CrossFitters whatsoever.
I'm pretty sure none of these big camps (the big name) doesn't write the programming for the affiliate. For example, mayhem, PRVN, comptrain (might be my only maybe) they have dedicated coaches
That’s it I’m going to watch lord of the rings this weekend
Hi Andrew
There’s two kinds of people in my opinion, those who do CrossFit and Crossfitters. I categorize as someone who does CrossFit. Similar to golf there are pros and then there is a massive amateur and rec world.
ok, with that said , in my box we get a few options per WOD . You can do level 1,2, or 3. 3 in this case is the hardest and 1 is the easiest. If you choose you can enter your score in your little app and also which workout you chose.
The problem with this in my opinion is it is a little too static. If I for example choose to do 1 but I want to have a little 2 mixed in because maybe I suck at squats but am
Good at chin up’s and I don’t want to do ring rows , I am Kind of In no man’s land.
Then, when the CrossFit open or whatever shows up there are two choices in my affiliate , you can do scaled or Rx and it’s sort of a winner take all score if you want to look at it that way.
My thought to make the amateur ranks more interesting is as follows. Let’s take a normal 21-15-9 work out for example. In this case it is 21 OHS then 21 pull up’s and so on and so forth. Ok. Let’s say I do MY chosen weight ( not the gyms but mine) , and I enter that in after. So I decide to do the bar for my OHS or 65 lbs or whatever (the maximum is the Rx) and I decide that I am going to scale my pull up’s to 19-13-7 for example. Doesn’t matter, in this dream world I choose. Now , at the end of the class I enter my numbers into the app. Over the course of time I get a handicap as in golf.
now, when it comes time for the open or anything else , we have two categories - Rx (this is static) and Amateur. The amateur workout is done by all of us who “do CrossFit” and if we have a registered handicap (must have ‘x’ number of classes in to get a handicap that year our number gets adjusted based on our handicap and we are also able to see how we rank based on our cap. So you end up for example with a score that gets adjusted based on where your cap is.
this, to me would give incentive to the existing CrossFit members to not only show up a certain amount but would also lead Creedence to more participation in club level scaled participation , which for all Intents and purposes is where the growth is coming from anyways. So, in this way the scaled growth is becoming more gamified and the incentive is to keep working on the handicap lowering as in golf.
Lastly you might be thinking of all the sandbaggers out there who are going to pad their caps through the year , but we can somewhat address that with more handicap weight placed on the competition days, and we could probably have a competition every month with leaderboards instead of just every couple times a year , which would allow for a more indicative handicap because the tournaments would be more regular.
Thoughts ?
Is Brooke Wells still HWPO?? None of her videos have the hashtag or promotion for it.. every time I see the posts I question if she is still with them.
😅😅😅IT DOESN’T MATTTER 😂😂😂😂
So….. we can add Jay Decoons to the list of folk who don’t understand the 24.3 tie breaker time then huh?
A lot can be explained once you determine a persons level of authenticity. oh, and 30:33 is an absolute head-shaker. How could that possibly be surprising?
Oh well! Another banger by Hiller. Keep it going bro.
So, Mat and HWPO are going to launch affiliate programming when they don’t open their affiliate to the public and don’t actually run classes regularly? These affiliates better be ready to get wrecked. I used to follow HWPO and in one day they had assault bike intervals, cleans, snatches and front squats plus a metcon scheduled in one day. After that I said fuck this and left. Leave it to mat to not even know who was coaching one of their top level athletes. And his answer to the current state of CrossFit was a guy that has no idea what’s going on.
Doesn’t Hiller do affiliate programming and doesn’t currently run an affiliate or public classes out of his garage? This is not a knock on Hiller or Mat at all. But to use those two things as criteria on who should or should not offer affiliate programming is interesting. You will be surprised on how many people who offer affiliate programming do not fall under that criteria. BTW I’ve heard great things about Hiller’s affiliate programming.
@@PCtheCrazyAsian difference is Hiller used to own an affiliate.
Hiller owned an affiliate for 5 years! And thank you lol
And now Mat does. We got to start somewhere. Just like Hiller started somewhere. The difference is that everyone wants to knock Fraser down because of his success as an athlete but as this video pointed out he’s trying to give back but some people just want to immediately jump to conclusions instead of giving the guy a chance. Do you think Froning does his affiliate programming or if he currently has his L1 or does any of the affiliate programming. His affiliate might not be under his name for all we know.
Dude, he has coaches in his team. He won’t probably program anything
fraser seems like the least interested guy on the planet when it comes to helping other people. he literally is all about himself. and he's a terrible interview. looks disinterested. i might have to change my GOAT pick to froning if he keeps this shit up.
imagine thinking any of these pretend athletes is a GOAT
@@ShootTheClubUp42 huh??
@@12dailydosesofstuff oh i mean they have the strength of high school football kids and the cardio of JV soccer kids. They can do cool tricks though.
Sure appears that way, but it’s always been about him when he was competing.
This was a good video to showcase that Jay is actually trying to do some good things and trying to understand what CrossFit is.
The Mat thing is… awkward.. you could argue he’s one of the best to ever do it.. but it’s crazy how out of touch he seems to be with CrossFit that isn’t the sport.
Oh I’m so excited to watch this!!
Love the shirt bro, streetparking is the best!
Some affiliates are small and I can imagine in some countries all the affiliates have small numbers. So, averaging 31 members per box signing up for the open sounds like a pretty good number to me.
Best video I seen of your way to show how people are so inconsistent when it comes to their crossfit message . They only care about making money
So shocking, people are in business to make money!
@@user-ws1mi4nx5r I don’t want to hear about community or health and fitness when you only care about money my point . Just be straight up ! Shocking is that nobody needs to pay 200 month for exercising smart ass
The affiliate vs members talking point.
You don’t want to over saturate the marketplace.
Also I do generally enjoy your content but you should figure out a way to stop with the false dilemma fallacies if you want your points to fall better.
Most Games athletes "Not affiliated" No apparent media team to promote affiliates. No advertising, letting key people go, so what is the game plan to grow Affiliates? Our space is no longer an affiliate, and its owned by a former Games athlete. The programming is the same, and he didn't go into detail about leaving CrossFit, but take 150 members out of there calculations and an affiliate.
Yes they definitely don’t pay membership fees
How many CrossFit gyms does hq think a specific area can support? If they can’t get 300 members now what makes them think they can triple the amount of gyms in an area AND have 1000 members at each? Thats fantasy talk. There can only be so many gyms in a given area, unless hq wants one on every corner. Guess they’ll have to charge 8 bucks a month like planet fitness.
Thanks for the Austin Powers references. 🇬🇧 😂
We need Glassman to come back.
Please no
@johne7212 why not?
Does fraser have frosted tips?
Think he's graying slightly, with bright light above him
@@alexbielovich so was he using rogaine when he was competing
Great video Hiller
I’m with Alexis, I thought this was his actual voice 😂
Did the unaffiliated numbers bump up in 2020ish because a bunch of gyms unaffiliated after Greg’s comments? I know a lot of affiliates were talking about leaving so if a bunch did then that would explain the jump and then die down two years later
And garage gyms from covid
On that affiliate participation number, if crossfit hq wants 50,000 affiliates and on average only 8 members are signing up per affiliate. That begs the question: is crossfit doing a good job spreading the word/message? Also what are coaches doing at this box that only 8 members are signing up?
Ive been with hwpo since launch and it bothers me to no end how much money he throws at everything but the thing people pay him for.
Man, I thought the same thing with McDonalds locations - the dude views workouts like burger$$. "billions and billions served" - smh :(
"McCrossFit" does roll off the tongue, though. (sob)
What about they closed everything down during the "Worst Pandemic in History", and those of us built our own gyms in our garages...
I freaking love you dude!
Video would be even better if you had 1 of our shirts
For the algorithm brother
Does it hurt to know that your car behind you ended up getting stolen?
“Dude, where’s my car?”
That Josh dude kicking rocks…. Moving the needle.
I bet Jay says point com instead of dot com lol
HWPO is gonna collapse, its just structured so bad and its gonna catch up to them, many of us have been giving them feedback if they ever read comments… oh well….
Not to mention their programming has gone to hell. For a company that employs some of the best coaches they have no idea how to things like deload. Their member chat is filled with tons of people getting injured or having to switch programs because of all the volume.
Lol, gotta get the $5000 from somewhere to give away
Sounds like HWPO pyramid scene
More unaffiliated participants could also have been due to people setting up home gyms during pandemic
Nothing has changed with this Fraser guy.
Watch his Joe Rogan podcast. Horribly misrepresented CrossFit.
He didn’t even know how much a women’s barbell was or cost of CrossFit.
did he come from a software background? versioning on sw tends to use dots not points... but yeah... weird
This made me like Jay
Got further into the video and may need to retract my comment
Hahahaahah
no, i think it's better to have a smaller number of affiliates with more participants. It makes it feel like it matters. Would you rather have 12 football stadiums across the country that are packed out with 30,000 ppl or 300 stadiums that have 2,000 people in them. The latter would make the atmosphere feel dead and everyone going would feel like what they're doing is dead and dying.
Im not saying the. gyms are empty though? More like the stadiums have 10k and only 2k bought hot dogs
But CF makes more revenue when there are more affiliates. So I agree with Hiller's point. They're getting the athletes' money from the open whether they're affiliated or not so I'd think CF would want the athletes/affiliate number to be LOW. It's a weird metric. I agree with that. It doesn't really tell you much because affiliates don't have a standard size or membership base.
Hiller! You are getting way funnier, can’t wait to see your commentary on the unfollowable QFs
Plot twist: Fraser is so moved by what CrossFit actually is, he becomes the new Greg Glassman, taking down coke, defending fitness, and fighting chronic disease.

Gr8 work
Watch physical 100 and do a review
Crossfit wants to open an infinite number of gym, or rather, have individuals take all the risk to open those gyms. They are charging a stiff affiliate due (annually), and providing less and less each year in the way of support to those individual gym owners by way of marketing, advertising, ongoing training. There is no celebration/highlight of gyms/gym owners/gym members. It's just wild to me: pay us tons of money, and get an increasingly tarnished brandname in return. I love Crossfit. I believe in it. I coach, I participate in the class workouts, and gym events. But MAAAAN...the delusion of the CF lead team is on another level.
31:29 i love dogs❤
Disappointed in Hiller for not throwing in a clip of "200 pounds of Twisted Steel and Sex appeal" in his basketball reference.
Unpopular opinion: I liked the car in the garage lol
🍿🤣 Soooo good!!
Mat’s answer about Brooke Wells was disappointing… not engaged at all…
I would really like to know how CrossFit HQ plans on 10x-ing the amount of people who do CrossFit. In my affiliate we have been hovering over around 100 members for 7 years since ive been there. Thats because of the space they have which is about the size of your garage! I'm sure owners would love to have more people but they would need to find another place. Which would mean actually finding a suitable place, waiting til their current lease runs out or buying out of it and probably having to increase membership fees as rent just keeps going up. We have 2 other affiliates in the area which are smaller than ours. Ones been going longer than us and the other has just opened
Please create your own media team and take over where crossfit HQ has failed the community on games/ comp coverage.
Based on his 24.3 score, did Jay do scaled?
One of the best ever, but.... doesn't Jay look and sound like Ai !!!!!!!!!!
19:51 Hillerfit…?
Jay was correct there. Being able to open a box and coach people about complex movements performed at high intensity after a 2 day course is ridiculous. But it was good to make a lot of money for Glassman when CF was exploding
Balls
The bridge analogy… come on…. Come on.. 😐😑
Most overrated champ in history
My thoughts exactly
I was never a fan of Fraser.
Ok but he actually does sound like the ai guy
SRT ALERT
People died on that bridge I’m glad you are using it for a CZcams video about crossfit i definitely can see the comparison your to much sometimes bud
Hater Hiller🦇
Did he have a Zyn in his lower lip in 2018? Was Zyn around in 2018? Also, regardless of your opinion or the "science" related to Zone 2, what it absolutely does is provide an excuse to not work hard.
He uses dip
Usually
How can you have an opinion on proven exercise science? Zone 2 isn't an excuse to not work hard. It's a methodology with mounds of research proving its efficacy, especially within the context of longevity.
@@janpicksthingsup oh I don’t know, maybe because people were recently told the science showed something was safe and effective. That is just the most recent example i can think of.
@@stephenmiller7412 I love anti-science people. Really make the world turn. Facts aren't facts anymore! Science can't change over time with new information!
Matt who?
HILLER!
#streetparking
Matt's no Rich
Saying “dot” instead of “point” is not a big deal. Maybe the juice is making you angrier, Andrew
😂
It’s a huge deal.
Its kind of a big deal.
4th
I feel like you want us to fail. I feel like you want me to lose my livelihood and the almost decade I’ve put into making people better. I know you think you are being some kind of savior but dude. You only bring up negative things. You reject or hide all the good I do. Because one person who doesn’t represent me speaks.
Have you even watched any of his other videos? The dude is out here promoting affiliates on his own dime, yet yeah sure of course he wants it to fail 🙄🤣
Jay Dotcoons 💀💀💀
