Chase Ingraham and Bill Grundler analyze the programming of the 2026 Mayhem Classic to determine its effectiveness in testing athlete fitness.
🚨 Was the 2026 Mayhem Classic a legit ticket to the CrossFit Games… or just a Mayhem grindfest? Chase Ingraham & Bill Grundler go full breakdown mode on the programming. Heavy sandbags ✅ Unbroken Clean & Jerks under fatigue ✅ Brutal midline work ✅ Did it actually test well-rounded fitness… or just favor the gritty Mayhem-style athletes? We break down who crushed it, who got exposed, and whether this was the right test to send athletes to San Jose.
