@sheeple Tight psoas sometimes goes hand in hand with weak glute activation usually brought on from your standard 9-5 sitting lifestyle. While it might not be anything; if your insurance affords it it might be worthwhile to see a sports therapist to see what exercises you can do yourself to work...

@dolphins19923 Mine did that until I found out it was a glute weakness on one side. While yours might not be anything; if you get a sharp pain, it's definitely worth looking into as it could be TFL tightness drawn on by glute weakness.

@ezie I mean...unless he decides to take tomorrow off he basically has though

@jamco20 Why is it that men feel it okay to be creepy stalkers at the gym? Like...please dont stare at women at the gym like they are circus sideshows. I get some might stare because maybe they admire the work ethic, or they see us getting results that they arent--and cool; come up and ask for...

@sand8900 Still did; hence why Kara Webb had her elbow sleeves inside out and everyone was wearing their Reebok apparel. Fun fact about Mat Fraser; he trains everyday in both--met him a few times, trains in Reebok leading up to the games so it doesn't throw him off.

@demetria Okay double yay!!! Samesies. For much of high school up until about 22 I was 135/140 and still super tall. Ran a lot. Did yoga a lot. Started weight training. Joined crossfit in my mid 20's and I was hooked. Built up a lot of muscle mass really quick. that said, while crossfit was my...

@demetria Yay! Omg finally someone close to my height and weight! 6'2, currently at 160, trying to bulk to 170. Maybe my body fat is higher but you genuinely look a bit less than 35; I'd actually say 30 max...but I guess DEXA knows better than me? That said, I have those moments where I wonder...

@jonnylugs Okay; what are your calories looking like along with high level macro split? What percent is protein, versus fat, versus carbs? What is your training like--how often does your box program for strength? Are you doing any accessory work or anything extra to compensate if they aren't...

@jonnylugs What is your goal?

@jessica719 I get it and I don't disagree with you. To be on the the far end of athleticism in any sport you are going to come out with a collection of injuries. However that is not exclusive to crossfit and my point was that every sport has its long term wear and tear injuries.

@dawn16 I am so sorry for your loss; but at the same damn girl you're a stone cold killer with that comeback.

@michaelphemo Name one sport that doesn't have its injuries.

@christianwithhope Damn! Girl that’s amazing! You clearly put on some muscle—your legs don’t look bigger but definitely more defined and you have abs! AND!! You created curves!

@alidvx Howdy! I'm your same height and similar size and used to be 20 (I'm currently 30) and didn't start working out until I was 25. When I started; I ran here and there, but was 100% weak sauce--like could not do a pushup, or a plank, or even a proper dead-bug/tucked hollow hold. So 2...

@blizzardlover428 Hey there fellow crossfitter! You look absolutely friggin amazing in that second pic--you not only look radiant (that smile) but you look strong and capable. Keep up the good work!

@anonymous_iran It’s a family secret, sorry. 😏

@genenco Yea so the progression part I found it easier to progress via reps in many instances and then progressing to the next challenging one the next time and doing as many reps at that form and then rest of volume with the easier form. So basically splitting between the two and aiming for...

@genenco Thank you! Discipline is a big part of it, I'm not going to lie--like it's not fun doing 400m lunges by yourself (or 8 minutes at home). I did that one outside, on a 40C day, on the sidewalk in the city, in shorts and forgot to wear knee sleeves so wound up with a few scrapes and cuts...

@dawn16 He is one of my inspos! Along with Greg Nuckols who gave me the idea of doing single leg squats on his Stronger By Science podcast and weighted pushups.

Hi all; originally wrote this as a comment and it was given the approval to be a standalone progress post. I want to take a moment to both brag, but also share, about having returned to the gym (around 3 weeks back) and finding myself pleasantly surprised having lost very little actual strength...
