    Dan John's issue with dual snatches???

    @barronkanetaylor The YouTube and social media algorithms shamefully reward that kind of 'influencer' behavior. He doesn't actually believe dual snatches are dangerous. He makes the same claims about thrusters. But that kind of clickbait is profitable. He's a businessman targeting the ever...

    Dan John's issue with dual snatches???

    @sharita3737 Does he ever say which athletes he's coaching or at which colleges? I'm curious.

    Double clean workouts

    @robbie0376 Check beyond typical kettlebell programming. CrossFit gyms tends to prioritize cleans and workouts are easy to find on sites like WodWell. You'll be able to find a lot more Googling around. Just swap KB's in for DB's and barbells. Do lots of cleans. To squat, press, jerk, carry and...

    Dan John's issue with dual snatches???

    @cristina49 Another good question, I know whwre youre going with that. Less chance of cuff impingement. But I doubt those are programmed anywhere. Now would some athletes get the greenlight to do movements the rest of the team isn't allowed to do b/c maybe (s)he was a competitive lifter in high...

    Dan John's issue with dual snatches???

    @cristina49 Good question. Push presses are pretty scarce too. The coaches dont want athletes muscling through any shoulder impingements, and they dont find the movement pattern translates any on-field movements. For instance, American football players push the opponent in front of them like a...

    23.1 women’s barbells misloaded

    @jkhaemba Yeah I was involved in CF for 4 years and several of our members have been too, one who observed screwing over podium finishers is not all that surprising. CrossFit Moxie ran the comp btw.

    Dan John's issue with dual snatches???

    @sharita3737 Which elite collegiate athletes is Dan John coaching? You mention risk-reward. But he's the only strength coach since like the 80's who recommends athletes do strict overhead presses. That shocked me. I can't name a single full time sports performance S&C coach who let's his...

    23.1 women’s barbells misloaded

    @jkhaemba Lol at Morning Chalkup. They were going to do a story on a noteworthy California CF box that held an online kettlebell comp via Competition Corner a few years ago that ghosted us when it came to mailing prizes to our podium finishers. They congratulated us on medaling via email like a...

    Kettlebell College Class Feedback

    @nikkie7 The 1 kb movement I believe provides a completely different stimulus than you can get with any other tool is the single arm front squat. Heavy. Armpit has to be shut with elbows pointed down. To hold a super heavy kb up with 1 arm, youll have to jut your scapula out and then slide it...

    Is S&S really enough? Read mor for context. Im pretty new to this fitness thing

    @mr_loevinger Stick to what's working for you already. Don't fall for internet fools gold; Pavel hocks a lot of it. Claims that sound suspicious are just that. If it sounds too good to be true, it always is. Ryan

    The Wolf

    @fbgah I know someone else doing this program who's so strong he hardstyle (half)snatches 2x44 kg for reps and The Wolf is kicking his butt with dual 32's. From a glance, this is the most gruelling popular KB program I've seen. Even a guy with pretty decent strength and conditioning would find...

    @chrisx You're welcome, NBD at all. It's all just a product of what I learned from others, most of which cost me $0.00. So I'm just paying it forward. I hope folks here enjoy it as much as we do. -Ryan
