admire rick ross showing his vulnerability on camera ... through a workout, he's getting stronger and giving other ppl the ok to do the same thing! working out everyday, it can be a struggle... keep going ross...
Steve Ornelas Yeah, I gotta friend that only works out when he's high. He's tried explaining it to me how he feels more in the moment and the pump feels better. I have to try this now. Gone to get 2 marijuanas, brb.
people live the way they want to live because thats the life they choice to live. go live yours and stop judging others for being different from what you consider is right for society and what you think is right for Crossfit. Crossfit wants to show that anyone with $150+ a month can do this form of workout and its just not directly towards one specific crowd. and having a celebrity as big as rick ross pushing the brand is not going to hurt them at all.
CrossFit® A level 1 CrossFit coach requires 300 minutes of training, how is that a professional coach? And all the Gyms in my area charge $100 monthly. Also, Rick Ross is a terrible "inspiration" nonetheless role model. Shit video CrosShit.
CrossFit® Do the damn thing Rick Ross. I am a big fan of your music. Been a fan since middle school 2006-2008. I workout also. Love the feeling. I also eat 3 small meals and 2 snacks 5-6 days a week. Keep it up. You may become the most muscular dude in the game.
I don't understand if this comment is pro cross fit or against it. Either way you shouldn't have to spend $150 a month to workout. Just buy some free weights at a yard sale for $20. If you have 200lbs of weights you can get a really good workout in. Also running and swimming outside in summer are free and if you can't do 20 pulls ups or 100 push-ups without stopping or run a mile in under 5 minutes or a 400m in less than 60 seconds you can then thats something to work on that doesn't cost any money gives your body a workout and if you can accomplish any of those thing your probably pretty fucking jacked or at least in really good shape.
Another great peak into the life of one our fellow crossfitters (sic). CF has opened my mind and I am starting to learn that everyone has different points of view and represents a variety throughout our respective communities. My favorite thing about CF is that when I am in the box we are all have one thing in common and we push each other. I get to make friends with people I would not normally hang out with. When I see someone on the street that has a CF shirt on I smile and say hi and they always brighten up and talk about CF. So for me CF is bringing people together for the right reasons. I can respect those of you who disagree, cause I respect you all now. Thank you CF and Go Rick! you go this...
I'm reading the comments and I think many are missing the intent: This video is not for the mature CrossFit enthusiast (though released on the CF channel). This introduces Crossfit to Rick Ross' audience - of which many are CF enthusiasts - but reaches further. And for that reason I think it works (although tested my patience in several instances). I'm glad to see a cultural influencer embrace this sport and all of the amazing physical challenges, results and mental benefits. He's progressing daily with effort, making one change at time. And that's what we do at the box everyday.
This is encouraging. Starting crossfit at 38 years old, trying his best, not perfect (but hey who is?) - respect for the effort & glad Crossfit is showing us that this is really for everyone and anyone at almost any stage of life.
Wow! Some of these people really love to hate. I think y'all are mad 'cause your friends are sorry and you're broke. Keep it up Mr. Ross. I hope you stick with RossFit and reap all the benefits!
This isn't a promotional obviously! This dude is documenting his journey. I'd wager that over half the folks at our local gyms smoke pot. And the ones that look the best at our gyms are using other substances. I'm not mad at anybody in this video.
This is the coolest interview i've ever seen homey do. He came off a lot more humble and likeable here than in past videos that I remember. Real positivity. . Hope things continue to work out for him. Keep living and getting smarter, wiser and inspiring to those that look up to you! That's what it's all about
Look if Ross takes a step to better his health good on him. He has more years to grow as a person. As far as the gun thing I didn't see anyone say a word when Rich Froning was shooting and blowing up things. Yes I would like to see even more positive black people in Crossfit but that's on HQ. At the end of the day this is a story of fitness. Crossfit has plenty of others to like, you don't have to like Ross. Let's give guidance not negativity. Ps: let's not front like we don't play street music in box.
He may not be the best role model. But you gotta give him props for trying to be fit and healthy unlike a lot of people. Hopefully someone else who's obese/fat will take this video in a positive way into wanting better there own lives in working out and eating right as well. Smoking isn't my thing but hey! he does live in Cali plus a lot of people smoke weed nowadays anyway. I don't recommend it but one step at a time I guess lol
Pretty good videos but I Wish it would've focused more on CrossFit and more of his workouts rather than his music, first face tattoos and if he likes his phone or not. Was looking forward to this video for a while, feel kinda let down. But props to the boss for working hard and staying on the grind!
Props to crossfit for keeping this video close to the truth. Weed and training are part of rick ross lifestyle. So I applaud the channel for showing that in the video.
Ross is doing his thing props to him.... but why are so many people upset that he smokes??? Weed is perfectly harmless.....the guy changed his lifestyle nonetheless
Wtf does the pistol in cross fit have to do with cross fit? Come on Ross, there's the streets but then to get away from the streets there's the gym. Damn
DON FETUCCINI well the cake wouldnt taste so good with a gun in it and this isn't a gym but this guy's back yard. educate yourself about how mechanical objects work and they wont be so scary
don't matter who it is that does crossfit. Crossfit is about the work and dedication. Everybody dedicates themselves to different things in life, it is not our job to judge on what we do in our personal jobs but what we do in the Crossfit world. Thank you Rick Ross you set a great example for hard work in both hard work with personal career and dedication in a crossfit box.
This was a good video I'm proud of Ross. He may represent some poor examplesthrough his music but he's a showman and it's his persona just like an actor's character in a movie, you can't take what artists say in their music too seriously that's where parenting comes in and making sure your children aren't listening to music they shouldn't be just like they shouldn't be watching movies they shouldn't be. I love Tarantino movies but my kids sure as shit aren't going to be watching them. At the end of the day he is a big guy who decided to make some changes and get healthy and the Crossfit commnuity should be proud of him. Good job Rick Ross!
Big props to the Bawse for not putting up a fake facade. He could of easily shot that piece without all the smoking, gun toting images but he kept true to who he was! THE BAWSE!
Everyone to busy worrying about the negatives instead of the positives. The man is bettering his life and everyone should be supporting him. If Ross can do it literally anyone can. If I was sitting on over $100M I would be smoking weed on camera too.
Good for him man.. It's good to see this dude put down the pills and booze and pick up a barbell. Nice to see him less fogged up and actually sober-ISH lol.
The comments on this are laughable. He is trying and succeeding, so what about the weed. He does it and does crossfit. What's your excuse? I'm not saying weed is good or beneficial but if you can't get over that then you are laughable and by commenting on bad endorsement for both you're so wrong in your mindset already you probably don't have the balls to go to a gym and train.
I like this guy a lot more than I did prior to watching this video. You gotta respect a guy for trying to better himself, physically or in any way. I hope he's this chill on an everyday basis, too. That'd be mad dope. Big ups, Rause.
+Brabantse Boef who gives a fuck bout real gangstas...most of them are in jail wasting away...this is nuthing bt entertainment n Ross killin it.l don't give a shit bout a real gangsta they don't inspire me shit. ..at least Ross inspires me to get creative with life and get paid 4 it.
Some people are mad because he is smoking weed in the video. Have you thought of the possibility that it could be medical Marijuana due to his medical seizure problems that he has been hospitalized with?
Congratulations to him for making changes in his life... You all need to stop hating and take it for what it is... A high profile rapper who is using his celebrity to inspire people to exercise and live better lives...
Never smoked weed and never done crossfit, but the hate on this video is ridiculous. Just because weed is shown, crossfit is now somehow a disgrace to fitness? Smoking a marijuana is not worse than the current popular IIFYM diet everyone is getting shredded on. Eating processed food daily as long as it fits your macros is something to bitch about and violates the principal of fitness.
I would like to see more of this! I saw Riff Raff doin workouts too online but this is very interesting aswell. I like watching other people's fitness journeys.
What will be totally amazing is when he discovers how much smoking weed holds him back and how much better he'll be without it. Great way to start big fella, just keep it up and trying to improve
I'm gonna take it for what it is a man who was well into 300lbs on the scale decided to make a few huge changes and lose a lot of weight as far as it being Rick Ross and everything I'm not offended by it....... Most times he's talking about drugs and material things but for once he is doing a little positive even if he is smoking a blunt it's a start on the right direction wasn't expecting perfection from a man like Ross and props to Garret for going and doing his job he could have easily fallen into the bs
I find it HILARIOUS that they show Rick Ross, the hard drug-dealing, thug killing BOSS, doing cross fit and eating kale. Good for him, but still HILARIOUS!
+FROZENFVNG HOLLOW u r truly bitch made hating on a millionaire & you're broke takes a lot of balls I bet the name you're using isn't your real name. IDIOT
Shout out to Rick Ross no hate coming from me. If you dont work out you shouldnt be hating. Cross Fit or Ross Fit it does not matter. He is making changes to get better. I myself am a weight lifter cross fit isnt for me, but its not for a lot of people. He is making progress and thats what counts. I myself just recently found out about the magical wonders of tracking macros. I love it. Im never hungry and im building muscle and burning fat at an optimal rate. Rick Ross will have a whole nation of fat boys wanting that fit swag! Watch!
Proud of you Mr. Rick Ross. Hopefully you focus on the the positive comments posted here. Even if you change a little for the better everyday your making progress. Good Bless and thanks for motivating others in a similar position. Being that i have lost a close friend to obesity and bad health in his early 20's i appreciate you showing your fans this side of you. This display of your character is motivating others and changing lives and I'm sure saving lives as well. Keep it UP. Bless. Bawse, Bozz cROSS FIT. BLESS
