Agreed. Get what you can out of it. I met a lot of great Marines at my cert and got to talk with a lot of interesting people. Drank some good beer afterwards, too. Fran works up a killer thirst.
Chesser, no one wants to hear about you trolling for cock.

In particular, the girls could not control their heads when they fell after contact, and the head to ground impact easily lead to concussions.
I could not control this via physical conditioning, despite trying assorted neck isometrics, manual resistance, and old school boxer neck nods early in the conditioning cycle.
Forget all this crap and have them wrestle. There are a couple judo throws I won't let kids do until they've been in 4-6 months (or longer). It's not just about building the neck. The chest, trunk, and back are also involved in taking the fall.
Shaf, if it ever so transpires that you find yourself coaching a women's college-age team, and you get them to wrestle for conditioning, TEAM GORILLA would be very interested in extending a corporate sponsorship to your team.

I would also gladly contribute. I'm already a subscriber to Ultimate Surrender.
Why didn't anyone tell me how incredibly awesome Budding's Twitter feed is?
I know that in the past I've drawn parallels between Couch and Jim Morrison but holy fuck! Mr. Budding is like a cross between Jack Kerouac and Martin Heidegger.

That's just fucking amazing. I know he gets a bad rap, but has anyone here ever gotten high with him? That's gotta be a trip and a half.
They pander to the anti-CF crowd in CF and recent ex-CF'ers.... nobody who is really fucking serious about strength gives a fuck what they have to say.
Its so cute how so many people kiss 70's big ass in the cute little weak world of CF and the recent rehabbed CFers. Its like when a 21 year old has his first taste of booze... legally.
70s Big is where Rippetoe-lovers go to try to be cool. They were cool when they first came out and since then have styled themselves to be strength gurus that none of them have earned qualifications to be.
on that list of the 100 most influential people, 12 or 13 i actually recognized, if only becuase they are some of the most wrong headed utterly daft and useless voices on the subject.
