    Local Competitions are humbling

    @cain_elenbaas even lon kilgore, who co-wrote starting strength, seems to have disassociated himself from rippetoe. all you need to know about rippetoe's quality/knowledge of coaching is how he describes the first pull of a clean as exactly the same as a deadlift. and i have yet to see a...

    Rogue Invitational - final day

    @kennybest I honestly feel I was scammed. If some see some value...great...but I have a sour taste in my mouth just thinking about it. Agree the free stream is top notch.

    @labryan i'm with you. i think she is one of the least healthy athletes i've seen in awhile. i too would discourage anyone from idolizing that one.
