and i've seen this in gyms recently, couple hardcore dudes i saw doing it looked fun.
be cool to train with 75th or redsam for a few sessions of this.
but i bet this turns into the MMA dork fighters i see i've been seeing in the gym a lot
these last few yrs.
You would probably smoke me right now bro...lol. I'm doing well with all the excercises except the pullups, muscleups, handstands etc. There's some things a 260 pound dude just ain't gonna do at the volume some of those WOD's are asking for. Just doing pullups at my weight is going at probably 90% of my max. Crossfit was not intended for guys much over 200 pounds. Look up Jason Khalipa, he's 5'9 but like 205.....he might be one of the most athletic men on the planet. The stuff he does and the speed at which he does it is "sick". The guy who runs some of the training sessions I go to is a regional crossfit guy and what he does sometimes blows my mind.....but Khalipa will do wkts in 6 minutes that take the guy I know like 18-20 minutes. Khalipa is just on another planet cardiovascularly.
same here....a buddy of mine is like a crossfit troll. He "refuses" to do any wkts other than the WOD's. Like he won't even do another crossfit wkt even if it's on the list. If it ain't the WOD, he doesn't want to do it. THat's my problem with that site, it kind of breeds this obsession with having every wkt spoon fed into you like a drooling downsyndrome baby. lol
