Crossfit

I really like clean and jerks..this made me afraid of them. Negged
 
Ok..that's a lie..any fucking moron that understands how gravity works and how the bar travels steps backwards if they lose it in any overhead lift...plus standing there shaking like a leaf at the top of the clean should tell you to not try and put it over tour head..also its more or less all one motion

Awww :(.... But you're taking all the fun out of it by do it in one motion. :) LOL
 
I dont like knurls hanging out on my collarbones any longer than they need to
:(
 
Duck tape could fix that up. :winkfinger:
Personally, I don't say anything negative about crossfit, all I can do is pray that either they will get a qualify trainer or learn from their injuries from an unqualified trainer.
 
Crossfit is fucking stupid. There. I said it. AGAIN

I dont feel sorry for any of those assholes in that video. The guy doing speed chins needs to be shot in the face btw.
 
its funny but Kelly Starret has a parody type vid of him doing kipping pull ups thats looks exactly like that one guy
the video is about shoulder and back injuries..lol

:winkfinger::clapping:....repped
 
lot of olympic lifts (done incorrectly for speed and weight)
functional training
gymnastics
HIIT


the problem ..and the ONLY problem with crossfit is really piss poor instructors that fancy themselves as some sort of drill sgts and the never ending need for them to try and come up with new and innovative (dangerous) things to try and combine everything..things like barbell squatting on swiss balls which is just dangerous
its also has an almost cult-like paleo following despite insurmountable evidence to the contrary that its good for all people all of the time
 
their gyms are intentional industrial atmospheres with stark equipment
their gyms are called a "box" (usually in industrial park warehouses) and their workouts are called "WOD" or workout of the day
a typical workout is 90 minutes in a class atmosphere


theres actually a superb one near me that has amazing instructors but most are not

This. So fucking much this.

I'm not that guy who plays the "genetics" card at the drop of a hat, but the fact of the matter is Lance Armstrong wasn't born to compete in strongman competitions, and Phil Heath was never going to be a fucking male ballerina. Genetics undeniably play a role in determining ones predilections toward specific athletic movements and sports, and the idea that crossfit is this ultimate training program fit for everyone across the board is just fucking ignorant.

And the paleo thing pisses me off in a way too. Anthropologists have argued for eons over what prehistoric man's diet was like, and there's still no consensus, so maybe the paleo diet is great for some people, but it's just erroneous to suggest that we evolved to eat that way; maybe we did, maybe we didn't, the point is nobody has a fucking clue.
 
yeah...I only like the one near me because theyre good with working with peoples from all backgrounds and ranges
and have a lot of very smart people that work there that truly emphasize good form

If you uave good trainers who are well versed in proper execution of OLY lifts and are sticklers for teaching form all around and preach safety, then by all means....crossfag away until your heart is content. I keep trying to get my niece to let me train her properly for meets because I know she would kill with the right instruction.
 
I've been to about 6 different ones and none are anything like what is parodied in the videos. Some
are better than others but you have to like to do that kind of "team" exercise which I do not. I would
say crossfit will get the average person in much better shape than the same person walking on a treadmill
and doing machine weights.

Let's face it...bodybuilders have their share of faggoty rituals and outfits too.

Ironically.. When you search for crossfit nudies on Google you see a lot of gay porn.
 
it works for some people, altho we think its gay. Kinda like we wish people wouldnt frown on gear abuse

It is gay. Gay as fuck. So gay I can't wait to rub it in my coworkers faces today when they slurp down their diet cokes and talk about cleans like they're all of the sudden some sort of expert :coffee:

Agree with the gear statement.

Now the boxing... I've been boxing since a kid and most of my workouts were "crossfit." People don't realize it but it's literally the same thing. A few exercises I could do without (those weird pull ups lol.)

true, but its all focused on building endurance, like Freddie Roach said " muscles dont mean shit, you need speed" I probably miss quoted but its pretty close

You got it right. He was referring to a ring magazine question on wether he trains his boxers to have a lot of strength.
