| 0:00.0 | Let's play Death Buy. |
| 0:03.0 | Topic one. |
| 0:04.0 | Our first taste of what we'll see at the Cross Fit Games has been revealed. |
| 0:09.0 | Athletes will take on the Hero Workout, Chad, |
| 0:11.0 | it's 1,000 weighted box-step-ups for time,out, Chad. It's 1,000 weighted box step-ups for time, 45 pounds for the men, |
| 0:16.0 | 35 for the women, but both with a 20 inch box. But remember, this is the Cross Fit Games and |
| 0:22.4 | Dave Castro said there will be a twist. |
| 0:25.8 | So we're going to go around the horn and talk about what you guys think those predictions are for the |

| 1:17.4 | So I mean the one thing I hope they do and I imagine they do and this isn't really a twist but is you know having it in |
| 1:23.9 | advancement of the box as they progress throughout the thousand reps to really |
| 1:28.5 | lay out the the race because I think that would make this a lot more exciting. |
| 1:33.6 | But that's all I got there. |
| 1:34.8 | I don't know what else they could do in terms of a twist for this one |
