| 0:00.0 | Shrugged family, everybody that was a part of the One-Tone Challenge. Thank you so much. |
| 0:05.9 | Last week, this event didn't even exist. We were just hoping people would show up. |
| 0:11.1 | And about five minutes before the very first lift took off, CT Fletcher. |
| 0:16.2 | And I looked up into the stands and there was about 3,000 people inside the |
| 0:21.2 | fidget lounge just ready to watch animals. Go lift some weights. |
| 0:27.6 | I wrote an Instagram post the other day about how awesome it was that I trained my |
| 0:32.9 | whole life. There are 12 years to go compete at the CrossFit Games. |
| 0:36.6 | And it wasn't until I completely lost sight of that goal that I stepped foot on |
| 0:40.1 | the CrossFit Games floor for the very first time. And I was standing next to CT Fletcher. |
| 0:45.0 | And I was able to speak to thousands of people all because of this amazing |
| 0:49.0 | idea of the One-Tone Challenge. And I'm just so grateful for all the people that |

| 0:56.4 | people that are going to be on the program as we just got through the first eight |
| 1:00.6 | weeks. And we are accepting new athletes onto the program now. The result of the |
| 1:07.1 | first eight weeks were unbelievable. Had roughly a hundred percent of the people |
| 1:14.1 | PR anywhere between 40 and we had a hundred pound of back squat PR, which is just |
| 1:20.2 | insane. So head over to OneToneChallenge.com. |
| 1:24.6 | Forward slash join. Get registered now. The program for ridiculous. Everybody |
| 1:29.4 | that started in the first group is now moving into a snatch, an eight week |
| 1:34.7 | snatch cycle. The eight week squat cycle is what launches. And just I'm just |
| 1:39.2 | gonna say it right now. I promise you're going to put on an additional 20, 40, 60, |
| 1:45.5 | 80, potentially a hundred pounds on your back squat. So get over to OneToneChallenge.com. |
