    @royblizzard They can’t handle you.

    Not finding the classes provide enough volume

    @zekori It depends on what your goals are, there are tons of programs that offer extra accessory, skills, or lifting work to compliment what you do in classes. You have to remember what the goal of CrossFit is, it is meant to make you more balanced all around. Fitness is a compromise. To...

    2023 Open Goals - Met or Nah?

    @peper888888 You might get lucky. I feel like the shuttle runs would be the big cardio thing in this year’s Open, replacing the dubs. Be on the lookout for going upside down, though.

    Linda - women’s opinions?

    @cgmezmer You’re definitely above average. I think for most, completing Linda as RX is a huge accomplishment.

    Linda - women’s opinions?

    @mixpanema Not a lady, but I will say doing 55 reps at BW of bench is difficult for most men. I’d say the average, non-firebreathing, male cross-fitter probably has a max bench of somewhere between 200-250.

    Barbell Spin predicts Mal O’Brien to go Hyrox

    @photographer Politics. For the same reason you don’t see CF Games athletes competing in IFF events or Grid League. CrossFit made it very clear to the top level peeps that if they participate in those “competing” leagues, they would not receive any kind of promotion from CFHQ.

    Initial 24.3 percentages BTWB (and percentages to shoot for, for quarterfinals)

    @talkingbunny Disagree all you want, the fact is that users of BTWB are a minority, as most gyms use cheaper management apps like Wodify and SugarWOD, so those affiliate scores are not included in the BTWB analysis. I say this as someone who uses BTWB and my percentiles in that app versus my...

    Initial 24.3 percentages BTWB (and percentages to shoot for, for quarterfinals)

    @talkingbunny These numbers only reflect athletes that upload their scores to BTWB, which is really limited to those who are in some competition track like PRVN or HWPO, it is not representative of the whole.

    Zone protein recommendations low compared to most other lifting-specific

    @hawkerdriver1 It’s dependent on your goals. To maintain muscle mass, my nutritionist sets me on 1g of protein per pound of nonfat body weight, so I am 175 with 12% body fat and I eat 150g of protein a day. To build more muscle, that should probably be a 1 to 1 ration of total body weight.
