It is just a PR play by Reebook. People are slowly coming to realise that these guys and girls are not only devoted lifters but there is also something else behind their performance so they need to distract attention and shake off these suspicions by revealing some carefully selected black sheeps.

Not really surprising, the guy looks juicy.

I was taking the same supplements at The CrossFit Games as I did at The Pacific Regionals.
"Supplements". Oh c'mon he's just weak and not putting in the proper work ethics and dedication man...i believe the others who placed 1st, 2nd etc were clean for sure. They don't need it at all to be at the top winning. Only losers need that. He's just the black sheep and piss weak Aussie mate!

Are you joking, every crossfit athlete is on gear, even the females. It's sad because I never respected crossfit until I saw the crossfit games, these guys are jacked and they perform at an insane level.

Wut? everyone...even girls? Isn't it possible they are more dedicated than other people who just do bodybuilding? As they do a lot of cardio/resistance training their body develops high amounts of mass and of course lean...wouldn't that be doable?
I know for sure, powerlifters who compete can lift big weights and be natural because they're insanely gifted and bust their ass everyday, so it was only right that crossfitters managed that too?

Go on netflix, watch the crossfit games 2015 and 2016, the girls are jacked, shredded and are absolute beasts. The males are jacked, strong as hell, fast and have crazy endurance. There is a ceiling on physiology, no top athlete in the world in a physical performance based sport isn't going to use drugs to enhance their ability to perform AND train harder.

I was on /s mode man haha
I wouldn't say everyone crossfit is on the sauce but a big part yes, even girls.
Have 2 friends competing in crossfit, she's on a bit of Var, he's on a bit of Test https://i.imgur.com/wYvIJI5.jpg

No. Pretty much all athletes at a competitive level are on PEDs. It just comes with the territory.

I believe that the guy that was placed third when he was taken down was clean as a baby. He was on no supplements for sure. 😂😂🖓💊💉🤔😩

Called it in on an early post with another elite crossfiter. I'll state it again...it's not the physique that screams juice, it's the pace of workouts. These men and women do multiple high intensity/heavy work outs a day, 5-6 days a week. There's no way a natty athlete can keep that high performance pace, which is why so many oridnary "non-elite" crossfiters get injured.
Agreed. CrossFit's dirty secret: the secret sauce is The Sauce.
They even have the gall to say this as part of the official statement:
