    Goals

    Hi all, I posted a couple of months ago about being new at CrossFit. I’m still training, I even did some bits of the open. Our gym has a thing for members to set goals for the year, and they help them being accountable, etc. I honestly don’t want to do it. Only thing I want as a goal is to keep...

    Who are your favorite people - genuinely - in CrossFit?

    I started thinking about this over the weekend. When I need a little extra motivation to hit the gym, I do my rounds on YouTube to try to find some inspiration. I always end up looking for three people: Kristi Eramo O'Connell: I love her down-to-earth advice. Julian Marquez: He is hilarious...

    Anyone catch Sevan and Hiller talking about Olivia Kerstetter's weight?

    Sevan has a tell. When he's triggered by someone calling him out, he explodes into an f-bomb rage. That seems to be what happened here after someone in the chat called him out for facilitating a convo about Olivia's stature? Look, they called Nick Mathew fat like a day later so maybe it isn't a...

    Goal Setting?

    Hey y'all, I'm a relatively new female CFer here, been doing it for a year and some change. Currently I feel like I'm stuck in a rut and very frustrated. There are so many movements that I need to work on (snatch form, pull ups, rope climbs, DUs, TTB, etc) that I get overwhelmed with how to...

    MASS FIRINGS AT CROSSFIT HQ - My opinion

    This kind of sums up my thinking on removing everyone from the media department. They went from one extreme to another.

    Why is 60 minutes classes the standard? 90 minutes classes would be much more efficient

    I've travelled quite a bit in the last few months and had the chance to train in perhaps 7? different boxes. I mostly do open gym (HWPO) but sometimes will join a class. Now, I understand that most people are no necessarily for performances and/or crazy improvements. However, I just feel like...

    Intensity/ Power to be calculated across a SET v/s the ENTIRE WOD

    Hello Hoping to get responses from the senior coaches here. Also, geeks in exercise science please chime in. (I'm in the latter camp. In CF, I just have a Level 1 certificate) I understand CrossFit's correlation of Intensity to Power output. That was smart and very objective. However the...

Since it had the most traction, I decided to do it (women's weight of course). Here are my results - 19:39. I'm a 33 year old...
