    Videos of women outdoing/keeping up with men in physical activities?

    @nordicgirl CrossFit is a prime example of this, especially the long endurance events at the Games or other comps where the girls and guys go together. Sam Briggs & Emily Rolfe always crush the guys. In this years run test (YouTube) tonnes of the girls absolutely smoked the guys.

    I’m only about 8 weeks into weight lifting and I’m crazy stiff. Does anyone have a stretching or yoga routine that they can share?

    @melissa75 https://www.maponline.co.uk/ I use this website and do a mobility flow every morning when I wake up and then a training specific one before I start working out i.e. if I am squatting I will do a hips/glutes focus flow or if I am doing gymnastics work I will do...

    What percent of your income goes towards fitness?

    @christian2011 A lot. Much more than other posts here - but it is my passion and I love it. My partner and I do it together, it's a huge community thing for us as well and so I am happy to spend the money we do on it.

    CrossFit or Oly Lifting? Lead me towards a path ladies!

    @jburd I do CrossFit so am biased, but if your only goal is to get stronger then it should be oly with a solid strength based progression programme behind it. I do CrossFit because I love the gymnastics/cardio/team sport side of it as well as the lifting. Its an all in one solution for me and...

    Massage gun (e.g. Hypervolt and Theragun) owners - share your routines/favorites ways to use them!

    @sysop I have a hypervolt that I won on a IG competition - gamechanger for my recovery! Use it all the time for quads, hammies, traps and just anywhere where there is tightness in general.

    How I build a base phase for QF crossfit athlete

    @g2perk Yep. Cardio & grunt work no probs, but heavy weights and I am a gonner. The girls I compete against just eat me for breakfast during comps with those barbells. Annoying as that takes so much time to build and improve & I am not getting any younger!

    How I build a base phase for QF crossfit athlete

It's hard as someone with lack of experience in programming to visualise how it should be built and what to focus on - really interesting to see it all laid out.

    @phillipunion I was thinking this as well - can you imagine doing a clean or a snatch with someone RIGHT behind you.

    Is it appropriate for a coach to physically correct you?

    @kingshellie Ew. No. I've been doing CrossFit for 8 years and I can't recall any coach ever touching me or anyone else, unless it's to MAYBE to help with getting over the rings or bar on a RMU/BMU but this is very rare and only with someone I know super well (i.e. my BF and my best friend are a...
