@allison77 If you think crossfit training and training for the CrossFit games are equivalent then your sources are wrong.

@allison77 Yeah, but crossfit isn't a sport. It's a GPP program focused on wellness and longevity. There's competitive crossfit, aka the crossfit games and other competitions, but that's the sport of fitness.

@kayval926 All the L4 trainers I've met have changed my life.

@tartamudo Its all good as long as you aren't doing it immediately after exercise.

@marlow7 You are essentially sedentary. Standing and stretching once in a while isn't going to fix that, not drastically at least, even if you do one hour of exercise every day. The only fix is to reverse what you're doing - stand for 9 hours and occasionally sit when you need to.

@mignonvds Are you working with a coach? Do you have any thyroid problems? It's important to inform the coach of any thyroid issues because they increase your risk of rhabdo. If you're concerned, don't do high intensity, do functional movements, eat really healthy, and get your body into better...

@sonali Glass assinated?

@peachandflowers I think Chris Spealler's story would be most envoking. Sure, Rich has won 4 individual games and 2 team cups, but Spealler has always been an underdog and has always shown a level of intensity that I don't think has ever been matched. It fits with a 30 for 30 story because it's...

@dawn16 You can do whatever you want in the gym. You cant put in a strength program on top of a crossfit program and expect to get any great progress from it. A program takes into consideration the microcycle and the mesocycle, and there will be a peak in volume. If you don't taper your crossfit...

@123rrrrr Please don't listen to the person above arguing about semantics. They likely don't know the difference between a microcycle and a mesocycle and probably have never heard of periodization. Yeah, you can go do whatever and just throw together some Frankenstein program. Guess what...

@dawn16 Its not quite that simple. You can't just follow a strength program and then throw in a constantly changing variable on top of that. A program is going to peak with volume or intensity. Doing crossfit on top of that is going to give you a different result because now your volume and...

@thriftfabulous Hey, way to be a bad ass!
