I’m going to go on a bit of a rant because this fires me up. Remember when Don Faul took over as CEO and wanted to grow the number of affiliates and crossfitters? This could be leveraged so much to help them. Remember last year when bagent went to the NFL combine and he talked about how he used CrossFit as a training methodology, and they didn’t do anything? For heavens sake, his dad was an affiliate owner and used to be an announcer at the CrossFit games. Yesterday I made a comment on one of their posts telling them they could be posting about Tyson but they’re playing and they liked the post. But did nothing. 🤦🏼♀️ I remember back in 2011-2013 timeframe they had a UA-cam video about a NFL player on the broncos using CrossFit as a training methodology in the off season and Matt Chan was his coach. They did another NFL player at another affiliate I just can’t remember what team he was on. THIS COULD BE HUGE FOR CROSSFIT. Thank you for making this video. You are the man Hiller.
I was a HUGE NY Giants fan all my life but haven't watched 2 mins of a game in about 5 years. Sunday, I'll situate myself comfortably in front of a tv at a bar that has Direct TV and request the Bears game be put on. Let's go Tyson!
Thanks for linking documentary. Side note what makes that CrossFit quote the best was cut off… cF and teach at his high school! How can you leave that out my dude!
tyson bagent is definitely a fit quarterback keep up the good work andrew i enjoy watching your crossfit documentaries thank you for everything you do in the crossfit space 💪😎
You are so right! CrossFit HQ, No Bull, Reebok, Rogue, Born Primitive should be courting this young man. As usual they are drooling over Tia vs Laura! Who cares about that?? It's about Functional Fitness. Now it seems like CrossFit is like bodybuilding where you don't see any of the athletes doing anything besides CrossFit WODs or promoting supplements. Andrew, you are the man! So is Tyson's dad, when he said that parents don't deserve all of the credit for their child's success
Couldn’t agree more. Who the hell is doing their media out there? Yet another reason why they shouldn’t have fired all their media in 2018. But today on their story they shared an affiliate playing a game as a warm up. This really fires me up.
CFHQ is stupid as f$&@. This is a huge missed opportunity. This is more exposure than the games can do. I am glad you see your media team can handle it. Go Hillerfit HQ 🦇
Ive been using CrossFit methodology with my daughters and some of their teammates the last 18 months. Fall season just started and these girls are killing it…3 home runs, 2 triples, 5 doubles, and 9 singles in our first 13 games for the four girls that have consistently shown up at my garage to workout. They are living proof that CrossFit works ! The girls actually look forward to working out, and these are 16 & 17 year olds that are bought in. I’ll be working with the entire team starting next week and I’m excited to see the results. CrossFit has lost its way - you are 100% correct, Andrew - this Tyson story should be celebrated all over CrossFits social media!!! I have no sh*ts to give about the Games anymore, but I know the methodology works and won’t give up on that. It’s a shame CrossFit HQ has.
I’m overcome with emotion. On one hand I’m very happy for Tyson, and on the other I’m very mad at CrossFit. The only thing I can think to do is boycott the open. Not just for this, btw. For a larger display of gross incompetence and lack of initiative on behalf of hq, really.
Disappointed in CF 🤨 I love everything about this kid's story . We have to thank Sevan for introducing us to him and Thanks Andrew for the CF F'd Up storyline. Lets Go Bears!
Andrew I was curious what you thought about crossfit sending an email about Tyson just after you did this video. They had put sometime in and created a video about him and all. I definitely saw your video first then theirs so it felt a little too late for them from my perspective. Good work you do, love the videos and your perspective
In ireland CrossFit style workouts are constantly used by rugby players to increase their game. CrossFit could be pushing more eyes on them by creating specific training regiments for certain sports, yea overall CrossFit increases the athleticism of athletes but a specific plan for certain sports just adds more
They tried with CrossFit football. Greg pretty much rode that into the ground. I still follow a version of the original CrossFit football programming and love it heavy focus on strength and speed. If you’re into longer wods it probably won’t be your cup of tea but I’m more biased to strength and power. Good amount of sprinting and 10-15 minute words at the most.
And the WORST part, is when they finally put something up the night before his first start, it was so Don King, so self-serving, so “thoughts and prayers” tweet on the day of a tragedy or country flag for your profile photo. CrossFit should have just supported and been a fan of Tyson, letting Tyson bring CrossFit with him through his love and passion of CF. Instead, they hopped on his back at the last second and screamed “look at meeee”
💯 Bagent should be THE poster boy of CrossFit's methodology after leading the Bears past the Raiders just now! Full-throttle media blitz! If only there was an extensive CF media team! 😉
You’re not just right… You’re ABSOLUTELY right! Posting that to Threads is even worse than no post at all about that matter. I’m desperate to see what there’re going to do (I know already) but I want to see it 🤦🏾♂️
Thank you Andrew!! I've been shocked that CF is asleep on this. Tia couldn't make that bobsled team sooo... Should have shown the vid of him throwing 3 points repeatedly as that little 7 yr old. Be nice if you could get some behind the scenes at the game! Ask until they're sick of saying no, lol.😊❤
Great video! While a hope this video blows up for you, it’s a shame that this content has to come from you because CrossfitHQ doesn’t seem to have a clue.
at my gym we use crossfit as a methodology to prepare athletes for other sports on a daily basis, athletes that range from a regional to an OLYMPIC level. Whoever says it's wrong or it does not work is simply delusional. We see huge improvements all the time, not only in the gym, but in results. Far less if any injuries and Fucking RESULTS. As far as i know this is done and is true in so many places... I think that this should be used as a huge leverage, i've brought a ton of amateur athletes into doing classes because they see the elite athletes of their sport doing this and they know it works. Bagent's case is just one of many and its crazy that is not being used, seriously, why? does not make any sense.
I max the Army Combat Fitness Test and literally never have to train for any of the events because I've been doing crossfit for a decade, agree with you 100% here man.
hes probably not going to be a fantasy stud, he only cares about winning. And his style of play is to go on long drives eating the clock and shortening the game, so all the casuals are going to think he sucks because his stats arent great, even though the team is winning or at least playing well.
Just in case any of u guys haven’t seen it Back in the day Matt Chan had a video at Crossfit Verve with a Denver Broncos football player who worked out at his affiliate.
Dude won Gatorade player if the year in West Virginia breaking High school qb records and only got 2 D1 offers to 2 schools I've never heard of. Not sure how WVU or Marshall didn't offer this guy a scholarship.
have no idea how no team drafted him earlier. So much bias. He looked great at the combine and talk to him for 5 minutes which all NFL teams did and you can see he has an elite mindset and work ethic.
I coach MLB players during their off season at my affiliate. They have gotten so much better with just CrossFit. We have made instagram post about them. No repost. The last person I coached was Yasiel Puig. Nothing from CrossFit 😑
ABSOLUTELY ONE OF YOUR BEST VIDEOS TO DATE!!! 👊💯🔥🔥🔥💪🙏🏻 I TOLD PEOPLE THIS WHEN DON CAME IN AFTER THE LAST DOUCHEBAG THAT TRIED TO FUCK UP CROSSFIT. THE GUY CAME FROM FACEBOOK. 🤷🏼 BELIEVE ME, DON’T BELIEVE ME, I DON’T GIVE A SHIT, BUT PERSONALLY I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS AN EFFORT BEHIND THE SCENES TO DESTROY THE BRAND. I HOPE I’M DEAD ASS WRONG AND IT EXPLODES AGAIN, BUT I DON’T THINK I AM.
Seriously. They need to fire the media people they have and hire some 18yo instagrammers and UA-camrs to get likes and followers. The whole thing is falling apart. They are losing me and my sons like a lot of others. I will always practice the skills and believe in the programming and teachings, I just have a hard time following it.
Damn as a Bears fan I really disliked Justin Fields becoming a Vegan, but now hearing our back up QB is a lame cross fitter doing kip pull ups is just as painful to learn. 🤦♂️😳😅
I definitely get where you’re coming from, but to play devils advocate a little bit. If he goes out and plays really badly for two quarters and then gets benched, he’s forgotten tomorrow. Then if CrossFit hyped him up and leaned into him, it’s a meme and a mockery for until people get tired of it. So, if they do nothing it’s at worst a neutral move, if they lean into it it could be amazing or awful. Easy to be lazy in that situation.
CrossFit is in cahoots with nsca, because they want to preserve their sugar addiction get fat and tell everyone that if your fat and doing CrossFit you’re a hero
It's back to the "community" mindset... they all say how important the community is but all they pump out is the elite mess; which in my view peaked 2 seasons ago. crossfit didn't have any insight about the community and has missed the bost completely
Bt far one of the biggest if not the biggest stage in the world based on the fan per game attendance, the billions and billions maybe even trillion by now in annual revenues and for at least 20 years England and now Germany have at least 4 regular season NFL games a year.

Great video. Love Tyson and his Dad. Awesome. I am a huge Bears fan and hope Tyson and the Bears play great and WIN tomorrow against the Raiders.
Someone’s watching your videos from HQ- did you see the email they sent out with a 2:35 second video on Tyson. Interesting.
Was that Gary's voice at the start of the video? Thanks for highlighting this young man.
Travis Bagent was smooth AF in that NFL Network piece. Was a pleasure to watch that.
Thanks for linking documentary.

Man, shorter movie reference inserts make the flow of your vids so much better recently. Next level videos, great content and fair perspective!
I'm old enough to remember when CFHQ did youtube specials with Charles Barkley.
CrossFit and the U.S. Government have a lot in common these days
Run solely by leeches extracting profits out of the system.
I’m overcome with emotion. On one hand I’m very happy for Tyson, and on the other I’m very mad at CrossFit. The only thing I can think to do is boycott the open. Not just for this, btw. For a larger display of gross incompetence and lack of initiative on behalf of hq, really.

CF just dropped a video an hour ago.
The things that can be achieved when a dad (also a mom who probably wasn’t on camera) wholeheartedly support their kids.
Sevan should put something together! It’s his guy
You convinced me, adding him to my fantasy team
hes probably not going to be a fantasy stud, he only cares about winning. And his style of play is to go on long drives eating the clock and shortening the game, so all the casuals are going to think he sucks because his stats arent great, even though the team is winning or at least playing well.
How did the three picks this past weekend do for ya?
I’m not mad, just disappointed… 😪
Just in case any of u guys haven’t seen it Back in the day Matt Chan had a video at Crossfit Verve with a Denver Broncos football player who worked out at his affiliate.
Hope he does well. The Bears have had a pretty rough season this year.
Has Sevan done a BTS on Tyson?
With that comment Bagent said more positive things about CrossFit methodology than Fraser and those guys.
hes getting sunday night football this week too

As someone who started CrossFit recently it’s a shame more people don’t know about
Who owns CF now? Berkshire. That may explain a few things. They have food and medical assets.
Leadership is invisible.
He served them a golden nugget and they just ignored it! What a loss!
I looked up his name on youtube and CrossFit made a 1:30 video on him 12hrs ago. I guess like you said too little too late
Would it cost HQ to get involved with him now he’s a signed player I’m pretty sure they have to get any sponsors or affiliation cleared by the team ?
AMEN!!
To the folks who are surprised CFHQ dropped the ball (pun intended): where ya been?
I hope Tyson Bagent starts dating Taylor Swift. Maybe then CrossFit will post about him.
Lol. A savage dig at CF media/marketing.
