@kennybest I’ve seen people cheat like hell at kids go-kart racing and all that pays is a plastic trophy. Competitive people will always seek an edge.

@sahadul123 That’s the frustrating thing to me in the PED conversation….everyone immediately thinks steroids. Sure, some of the real meatheads are getting jacked on hormones but the real performance gains are in blood doping. Cycling has figured out how to artificially saturate blood with oxygen...

@john25 If his pay rate is $20/hr and it’s “only” 15 minutes a day, that’s still $4 a day. Since it’s no big deal, I’ll send you my Venmo and you can put $4 a day in my account for the next couple of months.

@jven79 Katrin went from DNQ to 7th after joining HWPO. So obviously individual results my vary.

@elle1994 She’s super close with Amanda Barnhart from their Comptrain Days as well. Curious to see if she’ll be in-person or train remotely with their coaches. Also, rumor has it that Shane & Tia are eyeing a return to Australia at some point so it may be that PRVN could just be disbanding...

@onedayworthy No you can’t…….there aren’t any left.

@elsiejo Thruster? I barely know her!

@yennora Tell us you didn’t go to college without saying it.

@minimunchkin So terrible that she was 2nd at the 2020 games.

@unknownroad Absolutely 100%. If you’re going to do a 5x5, warm up properly, get up to your working weight and rest adequately between sets you’re looking at 25-30 minutes minimum. Throw in your whiteboard time, stretching and putting your equipment away and you’re there.

@bldssphq I’d argue the opposite, classes should be 30-40 minutes and shouldn’t have lifting and metcons shoe horned into every session. If it’s a strength day, warm up properly to lift and put all your energy into it. If it’s a conditioning day, do just conditioning with maximal focus and...

@tim_goodnews From the rack or off the ground? I heard a guy ask this about snatches once. The coach was NOT amused.

@kevibbemore It’s on the YouTubes. Chin was marginally over the bar on a few reps, but the camera angle made it look worse. He had a guy judging him at bar level so I’ll take it that he saw him getting his chin high enough. Push-ups were basically him banging his plate carrier off the floor. It...

@grace4nan I thinks it’s safe to blame this one on Trevor…

@yahsway They’re Aaron Rodgers level dumb, where they’re so fucking dumb that they think they’re the smart ones and that everyone else is in the wrong.

@dawn16 If you noticed, the 2021 LCQ and the 2022 “back nine” required athletes to open their grip at the bottom on each rep to prevent bouncing.

@giftsigns Even when he trained on his own, between CompTrain and partnering with Tia/Shane, he would enlist individual coaches to help him refine specific skills, IE endurance, sprinting, strength.

@be_a_light Dude did a sub-35 Murph unpartitioned in 2020. Dudes super fit. The 2019 games cut was because his handstand walking sucked.

@dixibehr Hahahaha, thinking there’s any quality control in CF affiliates is cute.

@thunderstruck You’re missing the point. Business models have shifted away from punch cards and part time membership for a reason. It’s more profitable for gyms to have 100 full time members than it is to have a combination of 200 full and part time members. That’s exactly what would happen if...
