Mayhem Classic Prep, GOWOD Warmups, and Jay Crouch Joins the Pod | Boys Interrupted

The hosts talk about recovering from a recent illness and how it affected training intensity and recovery, then shift to using GOWOD mobility, building and sharing custom protocols, and joking about long warmups. They discuss the Mayhem Classic in about 10 days, travel plans, rumors of an offsite swim, and the officially released “Midline Century” event, including strategy considerations and comparisons to other athletes’ performances. They make podium predictions for the weekend and debate workout programming. Guest Jay Crouch joins to recap his quarterfinals schedule and strategy, describe his daily training routine in Australia, travel challenges, improvements since training full-time with Proven, and his goals to qualify through Torian Pro. The episode ends with banter about moon-landing conspiracies, Halloween stories, and a note on Rob Orlando’s passing, plus a plug for their Ellis Project documentary and motivation for Jason’s final Mayhem prep.
