CrossFit Games Prep: 20 Events, The Hopper Times, Pig Flips, and Quinn’s Rookie Outlook (Boys Interrupted Ep. 79)In Episode 79 of Boys Interrupted, the guys recap a heavy training weekend, discuss doing 18 events as a Games simulation, and break down specific pieces including a swim-dominant workout, a brutal 35-minute EMOM, hill running intervals, and testing The Hopper (with times around the sub-8 range and debate about possible sub-7:30). They talk about the “pig” implement, why it feels harder on certain turf, and how repeated flips change the workout under fatigue. The crew debates Dave Castro’s push to program 20 events, speculates on potential repeats and classic tests, and discusses Games logistics like venues, a hilly 4+ mile trail run, and whether athletes must jump feet-first into the pool. They also touch on mindset, sleep, Fourth of July plans, and Quinn Robinson’s potential top-10 rookie finish.00:00 Back With The Boys00:37 Quinn Missing Recap00:45 Weekend Training Volume02:18 Peeking At Workouts03:36 Soccer In Seattle04:32 Testing The Hopper05:34 Pig Flips Talk07:56 Hard EMOM Breakdown11:05 20 Events Speculation14:32 Games Mindset Check16:19 Fourth Of July Plans19:50 Quinn Top 10 Potential23:07 Repeats And Predictions25:58 Hill Runs And 10K Pace29:06 Smoothie And Slurping29:53 Nap Talk and Recovery31:10 Travel Plans and Moritz Update31:30 Reddit Drama and Game Day Rush32:31 Sleep Habits and Energy35:00 James Signs Off Chaos37:29 Final Games Prep Mindset41:33 Hotel Plans and Training Merge46:54 Dave Castro Pool Debate51:11 Event One Predictions55:51 Quinn Rookie Outlook01:01:00 Rookies List and Wrap Up
