Don't worry, he didn't see you do kipping pull ups.

I just like the first :20 where he falls down after every set

I hate that falling down after sets, but that dude is a certified beast.

Only weighs 165lbs and has a
500lb DL
300lb Clean and Jerk
225lb Snatch
415lb Squat
All with a
<:55 400
2:10 800
and sub 5:00 mile.

Crazy.

I'm sure that plays a big part, but he works his a55 off too. I can direct you to a link to his workout log if you're interested.

BMW_Matt · 08-02-2011, 02:13 PM

Oh no doubt he works his ass off, and it showed.

Crazy progress he has made in the 18 months from when his log starts until now.

Ha. Maybe. Guy pushes hard. None of my business what he feels he has to do or look like when he's recovering.

I dunno, it seems like he is trying to garner sympathy for his exhaustion. Trying to prove that he worked to absolute failure where he cannot even balance on two feet.

I'm all for heavy reps to failure, but I don't collapse in the squat rack after dropping the bar.

I lay on the ground after doing insanity. Who cares. It feels a lot better than standing up when you have the choice to lay.

You guys missed the CF games in Carson this weekend. My g/f went and said that it was INSANE!

If someone wants to get into crossfit do they just do the WOD's or is there another schedule to follow. Also, what are the warmups. I'd assume you don't just jump into the WOD.

I do dynamic warm ups and no static stretching. Try to choose movements that will warm up your core temp and loosen up the muscles you're about to use.

I.E. Pull Ups, Press, and Front Squat
My warmup : 400m run. Handstand holds, handstand walks, BW squats, jumping lunges, side shuffles, muscle cleans, tall muscle cleans.

As for schedule I like to do Mon/Tues/Weds, thurs off, Fri/Sat, and Sun off. Easier schedule to follow.

I'm not a huge fan of Crossfit.com programming since I also like to do heavy lifts, and olympic lifts. Checkout Crossfit Football for some good daily workouts.

What are the differences between the two?
