For all you Bob and Jillian fans this was on the CBS show "The Doctors" last week:

i wish they had shown the whole clip with them doing the exercises!

bob's mentioned crossfit quite bit on his FB page lately....

Steve4404 · 11-22-11, 05:40 AM

I recorded it on DVR but it's not yet on youtube. The workout was only 2 minutes (real crossfit workouts are more like 10-20) and Jilian was wiped out.

My son has been doing Crossfit for quite a while now--a few years I guess--and is a big fan. Now that can be a "puke in the bucket" experience. He would be white sometimes when he came back from the gym. He swears by this and calls traditional lifting "old school". I am definitely too old for this. My son is 35.

I did that exact same workout at a Crossfit affiliate years ago

Tall box jumps are so fun, once you learn how to do them! I wish I had a 24" box to jump on.

I wish I had a tall box to jump on too....oh and Bob Harper there to push me!

Ann1964 · 11-22-11, 08:54 AM

Just how tall is that box?

I hope this is a hint as to what he has coming up next for us!!!! I

Bob! I have such a ridiculous crush on him.

I happened to catch them on The Doctors that day and saw them do this workout.

It looked grueling!

I have to say, those tall box jumps are incredibly dangerous. I don't have to tell you what will happen if you miss while you're jumping like that. I have a broken wrist story if you're not sure.

I think it's irresponsible of them to promote this for the average home viewer.
