We're coming to the Agen Showdown 🏋️🔥
After the Mayenne Throwdown, it's off to Agen for another weekend of competition, burpees and team fun.
This time it was over two days , but it was easily worth a full week in terms of intensity.
A look back at a crazy weekend with friends, cameras, excessive rowing and a jacuzzi to boot.
🎬 Friday — The Departure
We left the Landes region on Friday, October 25th in the late afternoon, the car packed to the brim with bags, shakers and good cheer.
The vibe is already at its best: bad jokes, chips, questionable playlists and Brandon/ Tommy already ready to film everything.
The vlog starts here, and clearly, the “CrossFit summer camp” vibe is set.
No WOD yet, but already a lot of breath lost... from laughing so much.
🏋️ Saturday — Day 1: Three WODs, three different vibes
First day of competition.
Three WODs in the day, each more cardio than the last, sprinkled with heavy barbell and gym work.
Spoiler alert: way too many burpees and rowing machine.
The kind of combination that makes you question all your sporting decisions.
But the team gave it their all:
- Brandon & Solenne (HF RX) : solid from start to finish.
- Mélanie & Marion (FF Inter) : consistent, clean, and constantly improving
- Tommy & Flo (HH RX) : a steely mentality despite a dense field.
- Emma & Gaëtan (HF RX) : ultra consistent and focused.
- Adrien & Sylvain (HH RX) : the bosses.
Between WODs, the atmosphere remains the same: laughter, support, banter, and a few beers for the road.
The crowd is on fire, the speakers are on point, and the judges are holding firm in the face of our approximate burpees.
🧨 Sunday — Day 2: Final WODs and finals
Two WODs for everyone, then the final for the best.
And a big surprise: almost all of our teams made it to the final.
Objective achieved, and more.
This is where you see that the weeks of training and previous competitions pay off.
Despite the low points and aching legs, everyone hung in there.
A true team effort, with great cohesion both on and off the court.
Regarding the results:
- 🥉 Adrien & Sylvain make it onto the podium, 3rd place .
- Brandon & Solenne finished 7th
- Mélanie & Marion narrowly missed the podium with a 4th place finish.
- Tommy & Flo finished 12th , solid.
- Emma & Gaëtan , 43rd , but with a smile on their face until the end.
🏠 The AirBnB of recovery (or almost)
When we weren't crawling on the floor, we were enjoying our enormous Airbnb house :
Billiards, ping-pong, large table, jacuzzi… post-WOD paradise.
Between two gargantuan meals and a few serious discussions,
We spent some simple, chill, and incredibly unifying moments together.
That's also what competition is about: as many memories off the floor as on it.
🎥 The moments that sum it all up
- Non-stop jokes between WODs.
- Filmed fails that we'll watch again with love.
- Group debriefings as intense as the workouts.
- And above all, this unique atmosphere where everyone pushes each other to improve, regardless of ranking.
🤝 The guests & the atmosphere
As always, the French CrossFit scene was well represented:
Kévin Prissé , Gillian Da Silva , Alexandre Pinsolle , Vincent Pradié , and other big names came to battle it out… but always with a smile and a joke.
That's what makes these events special: high level of skill, sweat, but above all a cool and accessible vibe .
The full vlog:
❤️ Thank you to the team & those behind the camera
A huge thank you to the whole team for playing along in front of the camera — even between reps or with 180 bpm on the meter.
And a big shout-out to those behind the camera :
Brandon (yes, the one who finishes WODs sweating and then immediately gets back on camera),
Tommy Agu (the eye, the humor, and the consistency personified),
and Emma , always there to lend a hand, a plan, or a good laugh.
Without you, this vlog wouldn't have existed, and this weekend wouldn't have been the same.
Thank you for the work, the passion, and the good vibes 🙌
