    I’m the crying girl

    @whitehorse You can tell the coaches who cover your most frequented classes that you hate having people look at you - it makes you anxious and uncomfortable. I know one of my gym friends fails all her PR attempts if she thinks she’s being watched. So I make sure no one looks (kinda). I’m sure...

    How to improve my cardio?

    @bigboss424 Totally! If the other person is unchallenged, they should do extra reps, add more weight to the bar, add a weight vest etc. When our coaches brings their non-CF SOs to community workouts, they put a vest on and are sweating plenty.
