EVENT 2 CrossFit Games 2018 30 PULL-UPS MEN FRASER

place fredricka hideous and lane number five and on the opposite page of this in sixth place of the point standings in lane twelve York Van Carl Goodman Tsin but when it comes to gymnastics you got to keep an eye on one man 20.8 the average career finish for Cody Anderson and gymnastic events four point two three four point eight Cody Anderson at five foot seven hundred seventy pounds with the gymnastics base he won the muscle-up biathlon in 2014 with forty five reps in that event we expect to see this broke unbroken or close to it if you're looking for a sleeper pick you might want to look at the guy that was the Pacific Regional miracle man Zeke Grove seek growth is an absolute unit 507 five foot seven a hundred and eighty-two pounds built like a bulldog I expect him to go unbroken he got to this point in the competition without even being in the final Heat in the last event of the Pacific Regional he went from 11th to fit to pull out an absolute stunner and he might have his chance at a hundred points in this one field of 19 under way and we're asking that question and we'll see if anybody could answer it well anybody go 30 unbroken Brandon I spoke to Zeke just a few days ago and he said that he jumped up on these rings and he practiced with those longer straps and he was able to knock out 20 no problem he feels pretty confident that he can go unbroken here because in practice he does upwards of 40 unbroken reps grove and logan collins the two athletes up in front as you'll notice the leaders name highlighted in blue with that number indicating how many reps they have completed everybody else in red with the - number being how many reps they are behind is our two favorites and this one Grove on the left Anderson on the right you see Cody Anderson doing a really good job of getting up I'll pick two that dip Logan College doing the same thing sweeping the feet through catching in that dip and bringing the knees toward the chest to help get him out of the dip at the bottom and we haven't mentioned thus far but one of the leaders Logan Collins making his third consecutive appearance at the games were already 20 reps in out of the 1 minute mark we've got three men that are trying to go unbroken grove on the left Collins on the right both through 24 reps now 25 for Grove Collins is going to break Grove is trying to pull this off unbroken before to go and he's going to come down window might be open for Cody Anderson who's still going he's through number 26 here's number 27 he went unbroken in the muscle-up biathlon four years ago for his only career event win he's two away and he can't pull it off this time that could be a costly mistake Brandon cuz he hit that failure point and it's really hard to recover and now the race is on the line gonna be Logan Collins sneaking out the win at 146 Seagrove will come in second and called his shot he nearly pulled it off at a minute 52 Cody Anderson his five reps ahead of Willie George for third so he can coast to the line in this he can remember still one heat remaining as Anderson in just past the two-minute mark as I realize how absurd that sounds when 16 years ago this was made with a 30 minute limit I'm the main site worked out looking back in the main site it came with a description on how you can spot each other doing muscle ups the oarsmen Carl Goodman since sixth place in event number one fourth place here provisionally through one of two heats in event number two so a great start for me cagey Dean Linder Layton our fifth finisher Willie George another games in sixth seventh place saunas panchik that's not Scott panchik that's gonna be Saxon panchik the younger brother of Scott Humberto Rome top 10 in event number one he'll be an 8 Shawn sweetie Royce done rounding out our top 10 as apologized not having the clocked up there a little bit of technical difficulties were three minutes in on this five minute time cap event 4:30 muscle-ups for time next finisher appears like it should be Pablo shellphone and actually it's gonna be mark want Jones that'll pull ahead of them finishing 15th here in the heat quarter trying to hold off Jarrett Henderson Anderson's gonna edge am out by about a couple seconds so two athletes left two reps remain for Pablo shellphone and Brandon Luckett rounding out the rear of the field with five muscle-ups remaining and then the run to the finish line still a minute 10 seconds remaining [Music] for both shall phone and Luckett they are in significant danger both games rookies here this year both not having the start that they would want to see a Shaw boon was last out of the 39 and event number one luck it was 34th in event number one as the graduate student in Applied Physics in medicine which as he describes it as how radiation interacts with the body so one of the smartest men in the field is bringing up the rear of the field here in heat number one on 30 muscle-ups four time event number two of 30 seconds until the five-minute time cap but that will not be a factor for Luckett as he crosses the line and four minutes and 37 seconds to round out the field but we were asking the question will anybody go unbroken it was nearly unbroken but it was definitely under the two-minute benchmark 146 for Logan Collins Zeke probe came out so strong he caught most of his reps the first 20 reps he caught almost completely locked out and we can see in that slow-mo he's having to catch it right at the bottom of the dip quick little jerk the knees up and then finish with that press Cody Anderson it looked like he was gonna go unbroken through this event he went 28 and then failed on a rep where that right arm starts to slide out he ends up having to chalk up but it's Logan College hopping back up and putting in that last little bit of effort to come across with for the win at a minute and 46 seconds in a bent - the only man to beat the time cap in last year's final event looking for his second win in his last three games event in that position leading the way with one heat remaining Logan Collins in at 146 flat seat groped the only other man only other man under the two-minute mark at 152 Cody Anderson rounding out your provisional top three at two minutes and one second but we still have 19 Ian athletes remaining there coming up next indie number two [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] the toughest aid in CrossFit Games history rolls on its event number two and it's pretty simple 30 muscle ups for time thanks for being with us today everybody I'm Sean woodland alongside Phil brother and lightbar snow is on the competition floor we were on bikes for the first event and now we have a much different but still very relevant test of fitness here to that - its classic CrossFit this was a gold standard event 30 ring muscle of it's pure gymnastics would you have strength legs would you have skill wise and for this one can you hold on a little ring for a long period of time those rigs are a challenge in themselves and why Carson Oh has more on that Sean a number of athletes have mentioned that they're having trouble locking out at the top of the muscle up because the length of the strap on the Rings the Rings are eight feet above the ground there's ten feet from the Rings to where the straps are affixed in fact the women's event to winter Christie era Moe told me that she had to break up her set strategy because of the difficulty a lockout on these muscle ups thank you my 20 athletes are in this second heat and everyone is trying to chase Logan Collins time of 1 minute 46 seconds and right in the middle of the field Brent fikowski the man who finished second to Matt Fraser the two-time defending champion there in lanes 9 at least 10 Patrick Fowler needs to dig himself out of an early hole again he will be in lane 11 than James Newberry who took second place in event number one he will be in lane number 12 there are some men though in this field who may look to go unbroken come on gymnastics equals Alex Smith we know he's strong at this we know that you could go unbroken if you wanted to now is he going to he had a a rough time on the bike event so he needs a good finish here to kind of get himself back up on that leaderboard but again when you talk about rings you have to look at Noah ohlsen also had a rough first event with his bike pedal breaking off I've seen him do 30 unbroken in a minute 47 about two years ago or so in social media I want to see if he's gonna go unbroken here but then your champ what can't this guy do in your own words done we crushed the bike did great there and again we know that he works well in the gymnastic movements what's his strategy gonna be I want to see second of five feet of event number two is we are just about halfway through the opening day of the 2018 Reebok CrossFit Games four events on this Wednesday as Noah volson opens up the early lead Craig Kenny he's up there as well the leaders name will be highlighted in a blue box at the top of your screen the number of reps that man has completed will be in the white box all the men with their names in the red box the number will look either indicated they're tied with the leader or how many reps they are trailing if you want to talk about gymnastic crowds if you look at Allen Smith on the left-hand side of the blue shorts very controlled very tight not a lot of wasted energy no Bolton is his kind of raw ability watch his legs were all over the place big heavy swing dropped himself down now he's gonna feel that in his hands after a while so he's got to be careful to decide where he's gonna break up I've seen him before ago 18 and 12 we're gonna see if he's gonna do the same thing here Josh bridges in the light blue shorts on the right ear screen right next to nila Olsen is right now in the lead with 18 ound 19 repetitions down Adrienne lewd Whaler who is wearing that white leader's jersey after he captured his first event win of his career in the criteria is on the lead pace without falling off as he is taking a break the Lukas hovering of that Fraser fighting for first place Fraser back up upon the Rings after a break and as Lucas Hauberg and Kol singer Patrick Fowler in the lead Felder on the left of your screen taking a break as Matt Fraser is back to work Cole Sager though this through 26 reps and Counting the time to beat 146 flat belongs to Logan Collins did that in the first heat Scott panchik up and over nearest to the camera in the white top Matt Fraser won't win the event Matt Fraser fails a rep that might open the door for Cole Sager of a Fraser is trying to minimize his rest he has one rep to go and that Fraser will take the heat Sager is in oh man even with failed reps a guy can't be beat here comes Alex Smith said Matt Fraser right now will take third place in the event he was fourth in event number one Patrick Fowler takes night those are we valuable points for Valder the felder needs points to get himself out of that hole that he dug early on through no fault of his own but because of mechanical in his bike a bread fikowski is in the Kowski ninth in the heat 13th in the event fence Smith has finished Smith 11th in the heat mount eight teeth of the event as we are running into those times from Heat number one five at a time capsule Nick you're a car in the blue top he is in Alex Anderson John Cole T and Scott panchik are all across the finish line James Newbury Mitchell Stevenson of Craig Kenny with one to go there comes crate Kenny Tim Paulson one of the bigger athletes he's in the light blue headband still on the floor ass is Ethan Helbig he's in the blue top and patron just left the streets they're bigger athletes finishing later in this event Paulson is 215 pounds heath and helping about 215 as well helping with four to go minute 15 in which to complete them here comes no also to give him some encouragement he's a Helbig making his first ever appearance here at the crossing games after he took fifth place in the Atlantic Regional [Music] look at that wind that's another problem with those straps now he has to not only just get it they got a time those drinks decent helping has good hand-eye coordination he was a hockey goalie for 13 years everybody number two will get in inside the 20-minute time cap but nobody the second he doesn't faster than that man the two-time fittest man on earth Matt Fraser another top four finish on day number one fourth in the opening event now third in event number two he's had the overall lead for good the last two years after three events he's gonna be really close to that after two of us but Noah ohlsen was looking good early on he was you saw him start to really get a big swing if we said that that's gonna put a lot of pressure on his hands which again he knew to come down knew when to come down and did come down but after that we are also looking at Alex Smith I thought for sure maybe he would do that with that very tight gymnastic control that he had of the Rings but again smart chose to come down now with Matt Fraser he went 21 unbroken took a little bit of a rest as I'm kind of hanging out for a second hopped up there for trying to get to 30 and on the 30th one that's when he failed so he almost he could have cut up another 15 seconds if he would have made that last one had to time those rings to catch him last finish and again a great fish the fact that he has had these two good places this early in the competition everyone shooting for second Logan Collins will grab the event win Zeke Grove hangs on for second it's Matt Fraser in third place and Fraser is going to be unofficially tied in points for the lead but Adrian blue Miller will hang on unofficially because of a tie break and the two-time fittest man on earth is standing by with Mike Marcin Oh Matt this is one way to start your title of offense to top five finishes through the first two events what is the expectation on these two coming into this week you know the cycle I have no idea we're in a finished shop so that was just gonna be based off that hurt same with this one you know there's a handful of small guys that are known for doing thirty I'm broken and windy with long straps you just don't know what's going to happen so I try to put the pedal down and hang on okay you are cruising to the event win but you got a no rep or you failed a rep right at the end there what was the reason for that miss definitely trying to push the pace more than I'm comfortable with I figured worst case scenario you know I fall off the Rings I've had more embarrassing things happen so try to try to just hang on and I found my limit so you said you had no idea what to expect in the first two events what are your expectations going to event three the cross for a total and then that marathon row coming up later this evening you know we're going to gets a lot of big boys so I think there'll be some big totals going up and then I don't know if anyone knows what to expect on the road thanks man we'll see you soon thank you Matt Fraser third place and event number two and Matt Fraser is tied in points with Adrienne we will err who has the tiebreak because of his event win in the critérium Matt Fraser in the two years of he is the crown fittest man on earth has had the overall lead for good after three events two tests are down two more remain here on the opening day of the 2018 Reebok CrossFit Games the CrossFit total is up next [Music]
