@khurram79 Also I’m an engineer and I get confused with the bar weight too sometimes - nobody is going to think you’re an idiot, I promise!

Also finally, our coaches like it if some people are off the interval because they can watch you lift. They can’t watch the whole class if everyone lifts at 1:00, 3:00 or whatever but they can if everyone lifts at different times. As long as you’re having approximately the right time interval...

@khurram79 I’ve done this for my home gym because limited weights meant I had to load each end differently to make up some totals. I just used excel and have a column for each plate weight I have and a row for each weight total Then on each row I’d colour in the cells for the plates I’m using...

@thespeedboy I wish I’d tried 23.1 RX… unfortunately because of the scoring my OK score in scaled puts me waaay down the list. I feel like there should be some kind of system where at the very least 61 scaled > 60 rx. I can’t really complain though as I did intellectually know this. I just...

@ceecee111613 If I’m honest, I really pick at mine.

@jjmcubbin I’d say victory grips, but you also have to shave/file/remove calluses too.

@lukishaj If you’re sore, muscles hurt but no joint pain, you’ll usually find the programming works with that as they know how you’ll be sore and what you’ll be able to do. Oftentimes I feel awful but once I’m warmed up the workout feels surprisingly good! If you’re on a subscription, you might...

Oh and yes I’ve smashed my shins twice. Both times on a low box because I stopped concentrating. I don’t wear shin guards, just keep my mind focussed and don’t rush them too too much. Some people do wear leggings on box jump days though.

@whitehorse I’ve cried through pain, frustration, just being overwhelmed and also general life stuff having nothing to do with it. It’s fine, normal to have emotions if you’re working hard because you really care and give it your all, be proud of that!

@gertlush Also light colours pick up a nice line of black along the ass from gym floors if you’re doing sit ups. FYI. Lol

@angeltigerr39 Yeah we did the girl workout with doubles. I did 2xthe number of singles and it still felt like nothing, whereas doubles I just can’t get. Frustrating!

@jr620 I feel you, friend.

@californio Yes to all this. Don’t give yourself a decision to make when you wake up. Make the decision now - I’m going every day (or whatever you decide your schedule is). Set your alarm, get your gym clothes ready.

@mksamas How about double under? I’ve been practicing those since2019 and am not seeing any real improvements

@mike24 Every single CrossFit workout I’ve ever done has been harder than I expected

@vivekanandshastri Also, good for you for making changes. Give it time, trust the process, I’d say enjoy the challenge and focus on the improvements in the CrossFit elements and let the aesthetic side follow.

@vivekanandshastri I mean… it sounds like from a workout perspective it’s what you’re already doing. I’d look at diet and give it more time, 5 months isn’t long to see changes.

@suzannetocher Yeah agreed, that much working out isn’t necessary and isn’t the thing that’s going to change your weight loss journey. Total calories, grams of protein, 5 classes a week, and depending on your programming maybe a bit of additional cardio, like one or two runs or swims a week or...

@ciel SugarWOD

@vivekanandshastri So Trouble eating enough? I’ll probably get downvoted, but as long as you get enough protein, some sugar if it fits in your macros is not necessarily a problem, especially if you’re working out that much the body needs fuel. Are you focussing only on the number? Because...
