Why Does Fitness Hurt So Much, Is CrossFit Good For Physiques and The Future Of The Fitness Industry - Jordan Wallace, Paul Warrior and Tim Briggs - #006

**Chris Williamson** (0:01)
Hello there, and welcome to episode six. I hadn't recorded any individual episode intros up until now because frankly, I couldn't be bothered. The recording process has nearly defeated me technologically over the last few weeks, and adding another level of complexity in just didn't sound like a good idea. But upon the feedback from some of the listeners, I've decided that I am going to add these in. I'm also going to commit to releasing an episode every Monday. At the moment, it's been a little bit all over the place, but I think that Monday morning, get on your commute to work and start the week off good with some interesting content. That's what I've committed to doing. I'd like to thank everyone that's listened and downloaded so far because we made it into the top 50 worldwide on iTunes podcast chart. So thank you very much for all of your support. I do really appreciate it. Hope that I can continue to bring you some good and interesting guests. I have been getting my Instagram stalk on and sliding into some DMs of some very interesting individuals. So over the next few weeks, you can expect to hear episodes with Mike Cashew, who is the CEO and founder of Brute Strength Training, with Kai Wei, the CEO of The Light Phone, Daniel Head, CEO of romwod.com and Phil Mansfield from Red Pill Training. Also got more episodes coming up with the guys from Propane Fitness as we talk about technology reduction and ethical uses of social media. But before we get on to that, there's an episode to listen to today. Now on to today's episode, I'm sitting down with Jordan Wallace, Tim Briggs and paul Warrior, who are three of the head coaches at Reebok CrossFit Tyneside. They're all partners at We Dominate Nutrition and at Warrior Programming. Jordan has been part of the furniture at the European regionals for the CrossFit Games over the last five years. And these guys are terrifyingly knowledgeable. Their understanding of fitness and nutrition really is a testament to why their companies are so successful. But it is wrapped up in one of the silliest podcasts that I think I've ever done. It was unbelievably difficult to try and keep this discussion about fitness and nutrition, when all that we wanted to do was make jokes and take the piss out of each other.
But this is definitely one of my favorite episodes so far. So without further ado, here is Jordan, paul and Tim. Well, what we need, this is the problem, because we've done it late on a Red Bulls, mate. We're going to do that. We're going to fill you full of blue Smarties. But we're going to do, this isn't tonight. It's too late.

**SPEAKER_2** (2:42)
It's too late.

**Tim Briggs** (2:44)
I couldn't.

**Paul Warrior** (2:46)
I've cancelled programming for this. We've got to go back and program.

**Tim Briggs** (2:49)
Get that liquid.

**Chris Williamson** (2:50)
Get whatever you want, mate. I think there's some tequila in there as well.

**SPEAKER_2** (2:53)
Can we just put a coffee on?

**Chris Williamson** (2:54)
There's some Ciroc in there.

**Tim Briggs** (2:55)
It's a pineapple Ciroc.

**SPEAKER_2** (2:58)
You're training us as well, Tim.

**Tim Briggs** (3:00)
Mate, it's that deal. I need that.

**Jordan Wallace** (3:02)
Tim's got everything, mate. He's made more money. He's made too much money, mate.

**SPEAKER_2** (3:06)
You two between you, honestly.

**Jordan Wallace** (3:08)
You two between you. He's got more money than he's know what to do with.

**SPEAKER_2** (3:10)
No.

**Jordan Wallace** (3:11)
He's dropped in a brand new hat this morning, but he's dropped in the mud. Same out, though. He's dropped in the mud and he almost looked at it and he almost didn't pick it up.

**SPEAKER_2** (3:19)
He was almost like...

**Chris Williamson** (3:20)
I found out today that you've got a pair of joggers that have got semen and blood on them.

**Jordan Wallace** (3:26)
As a picture?

**Chris Williamson** (3:26)
No. They're not actual semen and blood. Let me say, is this sentence correct or not? paul has a pair of joggers that have got someone else's semen and blood on them.

**Jordan Wallace** (3:37)
That's correct.

**Paul Warrior** (3:38)
That's the right phrase, but it's not.

**Jordan Wallace** (3:42)
That is a fact, though.

**Paul Warrior** (3:43)
Yeah, but it's the cover of the Metallica album, the one that's like a weird graphic.

**Chris Williamson** (3:47)
Mate, don't bore me with the details. Details, details.

**Paul Warrior** (3:54)
Fucking, you over there.

**Tim Briggs** (3:58)
Didn't you have some dodgy in them as well? Didn't you?

**SPEAKER_2** (4:02)
What, dodgy?

**Tim Briggs** (4:09)
So there might be three things in there.
