Jayson Explains Paris Move + French Throwdown Workouts Breakdown | Boys Interrupted Ep. 71

May 5, 2026 · 56 min

Show notes

The boys banter about being spread across time zones (Hawaii, Eastern, London, Australia) and discuss training schedules, including Justin’s experience in Australia with limited public tracks and a painted grass track, plus a two-mile ruck trail run announced for the Torian Pro. Jayson addresses criticism about “taking advantage of the system” by traveling, explaining he wants multiple in-person qualification chances and to avoid the online semifinals; after missing Mayhem due to a groin issue, he decides to compete at the French Throwdown in Paris as insurance before Syndicate. They pull up and react to several French Throwdown workouts (run/row, Echo bike snatches and bar muscle-ups, dumbbell thrusters and burpees, a toes-to-bar/bench/box jump/rope climb chipper, a 6RM front squat plus handstand walk, and a deadlift/lunge/clean/shoulder-to-overhead workout), touch on WFP deadlift numbers and testing talk, mention CrossFit’s new CEO Bruce Edwards, and briefly discuss live-streaming issues and a potential Flow Elite partnership.
