@truebornagain I like that. 531 is a staple for many powerlifters. Has the extra conditioning have any Cary over to your lifts/strength? In my short stint with this kind of training, I do think that I’ve had some gains. Probably from the slight increase in muscle mass and mobility from the WOD/.

@gypsyrose That’s awesome. I definitely want to have my own gym someday. It’s amazing. You think you’re in shape until you really dive in. A lot of ‘normal’ exercise feels effortless now.

@san422 Nice. That is one thing, the gym I currently go to has everything I would need and more to do a lot of WODs. And I would have the benefit of using the other equipment/amentities. If my financial situation allows, I still want to join a box for the community and to compete with others.

@gelb1472 Wow this looks intense 😳 thank you!

@dawn16 I couldn’t agree more. I’ve been self sufficient when it comes to training as I have an exercise science background. I will admit that I miss the competition and ‘team’ feeling which I think attracts me to the idea of joining a box more than anything else. However I also love to zone out...

@dawn16 Cool. I appreciate the advice! I will check them out.
