Hello, everyone I am not new to CrossFit but I do have a 4 Y/O unanswered question. Some background: I ran cross country and track competitively for 7 years and I also played soccer for ~10 years. Running is a big part of my life but I stopped doing it competitively after my first year in...

Here is an interview with Graciano Rubio (Wallstreet Weightlifter) that came out last week and I thought it would be relevant to share here. He discusses his life, his strength training method, CrossFit, and more.

As a frequent traveler for work, I've had the unique opportunity to drop into numerous Crossfit gyms and observe their distinct cultures. Broadly speaking, I've noticed two predominant cultures in the Crossfit world: RX Crossfit: This is the competitive side of Crossfit. Athletes here are...

For reference i’m 17 (f) and in my 8th month of CrossFit. I out started very weak and lanky (I was 5’7 and 105 lbs to start) I’ve tried to bulk up (now 5’8 and 115.. still working on it). I have very long arms so upper body/rig work has always been hard. I couldn’t do any sort of pull-up when I...

I'm 50(M). I've been doing CF for 6.5 years. I think I'm reasonably fit; I was in the top 20% in my age group (50-54) in the open last year and I often perform equal to, or better than, people much younger than me in the gym. I came to CF from doing long distance running and cycling for about 10...

And what does crossfit not understand about r/fitness ?

I'm currently weigh 150 lbs with some skinny fat. I want to develop more muscle but more importantly I want to tighten up my body and have less fat. Am I eating too many carbs in order for me to achieve my goals? I currently go to Cross Fit 5 x a week. My current macro is 160 G of carbs, 170...

I feel like my double unders have really progressed. However, anytime I get past 4 or 5 reps pee starts flowing. It’s just little drops but if the WOD is 100 double unders it really adds up. In my previous box it seems like people just accepted it. I’d rather not do that but if that’s just what...

If you have been watching Justin Medeiros' YouTube channel, you've likely seen that he has been training for a powerlifting competition. Medeiros, the two-time CrossFit Games Champion, competed in the USAPL Holiday Hoist where he finished in 2nd place in his category, the Men's Raw Open 90kg...

Hi everyone! I currently go to Orangetheory 5x per week. I really enjoy it, but I am not really getting the results I want. I’ve gained some muscle, but feel like I need to lose some of the fat. Admittedly, my diet needs to be better, which I plan to work on as well. Has anyone done both and...

Help! Any advice?!?

One of the things lacking during this sorta focused treatment is exercise which is typically desperately needed (you’re jacked up on cortisol and adrenaline and rarely burn them off). You can’t jump rope or use bands, limited on weights if any at all, and have no machines. You probably don’t...

Hey y’all, been a S&C for a few years now, been strength training for 16+ years, currently 6’1”, 217, 13% bf ish (not my proudest physique rn lol). Was a bodybuilding bro turned wannabe powerlifter and have enjoyed implementing aspects of CrossFit into my conditioning work. Question is, for any...

I'm cramping hard in hot, humid conditions and drinking only water isn't helping. This doesn't happen to me when conditions aren't hot and humid. Also, I'm a heavy, salty sweater. I'm trying to figure out a way to mix up a good and concentrated electrolyte drink for the days I train multiple...

So... I REALLY suck at handstand push ups. I was very bad even with kipping push up, but with some training I managed to get to a point where I can at least complete the wods with this movement. I wish to compete at RX level (this is for fun, ofc), but looking on the pre requisites here in...

Just for the hell of it, I did this rep scheme while doing a WOD at home the other day:21/15/9/5/3/1. It was kind of fun. That last 5/3/1 is really frantic and I think the key is to focus on fast transitions. Try to make that last "1" as perfect a rep as possible. In case you're wondering, I...

Hey there lovely people I (26F if that matters) am fairly new to CrossFit (currently in week 6) and I have a logistic issue rn Due to work and uni I can’t go to classes more often than 2, sometimes 3, times per week. I still attend my boxes beginner classes which makes scheduling a little...

OK this got way long as I typed it up. If anyone even freaking reads it, good for you. I feel much better after this, so if anything this will function as an exercise in partial public therapy. I'm not surprised that the S.HSPU has come out, but with the varying judging standards + internal...
