@smithbell81 This has nothing to do with PED use.

@saraila Kalsu is the answer to all five.

@skizzik183 Largest city in the Peach State.

@diamonddolljeanette Yeah. It’s possible.

@skizzik183 Affiliate manager… A) we pay all our coaches comp their membership, but for a comp membership we ask them to coach a minimum of 2 classes a week. We don’t really track it, if they haven’t coached for more than a month or so, we sit down with them to see what’s going on and make a...

@lep Honest question, why all the keto hate?

@chibisensei21 Every 10 minutes for 6 rounds: 100 cal row (or anything that takes 7-8 min)

@thespeedboy Need to do all three workouts before determining if it was a success or failure.

@grace4nan Local comps aren’t going to vet people who pay to participate nor are they going to drug test. Sure, seems simple to check the names, but I’ll bet they were pretty busy and maybe they don’t even care. They aren’t under any obligation to enforce CrossFit HQs bans. Prepare for a lot...

@gertlush Love my pair. Not the best for running, but great trainers. Never had an issue with their customer service and have been a customer since 2012. Everything I’ve bought from them has stood the test of time compared to other products. I’ll always be a Nano guy, but the GORUCK trainers...

@dukeofwa Sounds like you are pretty good at a few things, pretty bad at a lot of other things. Take a sheet of paper and make two columns. Put all the things you are good at in the left column and all the things you suck at in the right column. Now try and get all the things from the right...

@williamw It’s worth saying that it depends a lot of what I’m doing each day, current constituting, and goal. Less days with lots of strength gets some great gains, but the Metcons take a hit. More days with mostly mercons and strength takes a hit. Wide range in between, but the only thing that...

@manuelbeaty Pick some short and long term goals. Little things that keep you moving and big things to help you get some wins. They can be big or small. Learn a new skill, set a goal for some weightlifting, pick some diet goals, just try to shake it up and keep yourself moving. There is...

@endtimeservant777 "Adding to the trend of women stepping away from competition" Just adding to the list of "famous" women (and men) leaving who talk about it on social media. There's ton's of athletes both male and female, leaving all the time that neither get nor make a big deal about it. All...

@christianman02 It all comes down to one thing, space. If you have the space, none of things these are issues because there isn't any competition for space. I was at a very successful gym that had a 300+ member Crossfit affiliate, any dedicated oly area, a dedicated powerlifting area (both with...

@pdbcm “Weight gain” isn’t a really great measure of your body’s composition. Your body gets “heavier” for a lot of reasons other than gaining fat or “size.” I’m throwing all these things in quotes because they’re all loaded terms and phrases. If you want to learn more about your body...

@christianman02 Oly and powerlifters want to be around a community of oly and power lifters. It is hard for the average CrossFit gym to devote open gym space to an oly or powerlifting group without sacrificing some of the space for their Crossfit classes. Scheduling makes this problem worse. The...

@chibisensei21 Tough to say in poundage. If you don’t really care about muscles to fat ratio, a lot, but I wouldn’t recommend it. If you are talking about “clean”, lean muscle, like 10-15 pounds, 1.5-2 pounds a month depending on genetics. Expect at least some fat gain if you are eating to gain...

@bldssphq For what it's worth, my gym tried an "advanced" class that was longer and it didn't work out. It created a huge division within the community and alienated regular members who felt like they weren't "good enough" to attend. I know the point is to have a time for the better people, but...

@bldssphq A few things from my experience managing affiliates. Yeah, 90 minutes would be great for those that want it. Most people don't want to make the 90 min commitment. You're arguments are compelling indeed, but that adds a lot more time to a class. 11 years managing affiliates, the most...
