CrossFit boxes around the world are doing the "Jacinto Storm" WOD this week in honor of Jacinto Bonilla, the oldest athlete to compete in the CrossFit Games.
Jacinto Bonilla turned 78 on July 3rd. After a lifelong passion for sports and bodybuilding, he first walked into a CrossFit gym in 2006 at the age of 67. While he knew some of the techniques, Jacinto quickly learned how rigorous the training was and soon fell in love with the regimen.
Defeating Cancer
His work attitude inspired everyone around him. Then in 2008 he came down with prostate cancer. Despite eating healthy and training most of his life, he was sent a curve ball. Luckily after unfailing optimism, an operation, and two months of recovery, Jacinto was back in the gym.
Doctors cautioned him about starting CrossFit again. His first lift – he felt a tug in his abdomen and discovered he had a hernia that put him back on the operating table. Nevertheless, he persevered.
Jacinto healed up and competed in the July 2008 CrossFit Games only 3 months after defeating cancer and a hernia. He hasn’t looked back since.
The 'Jacinto Storm' WOD
On his 69th birthday, he created the “Jacinto Storm” WOD, modeling it after “Filthy Fifty”. Each year, he has added another rep. And each year, more CrossFit athletes have joined him in celebration of his remarkable fitness achievement.

Last year, I dove into cryptocurrency, chasing dreams of financial freedom. Bitcoin’s allure was irresistible, and I invested my savings into a platform promising exponential returns. The site dazzled with sleek design, glowing reviews, and a vibrant community. Naively, I transferred my Bitcoin, ignoring subtle red flags. Weeks passed with no returns; then the platform vanished. My savings—years of hard work—were gone. The betrayal stung deeper than the financial loss, leaving me sleepless, haunted by regret. I contacted the platform’s “support,” but silence answered. I felt foolish, my dreams shattered.
A colleague, seeing my despair, mentioned Cyberpunk Programmers, a team skilled in recovering stolen digital assets. Skeptical yet desperate, I reached out. Their response was immediate, professional, and empathetic. They explained their process—using advanced blockchain tracing and forensic tools—without overwhelming jargon. They didn’t promise miracles but instilled hope. Updates came regularly, detailing their progress in unraveling the scam’s digital trail. Their transparency eased my anxiety.
One morning, an email arrived: “Funds recovered.” Logging into my wallet, I saw my Bitcoin restored. Tears welled up—relief, gratitude, disbelief. Cyberpunk Programmers didn’t just recover my assets; they reclaimed my trust in justice. Their discreet, relentless expertise turned my nightmare into redemption.
