Just struck me as funny today:

Martone, Part 4 of teaching the RKC swing to the CFers who have dedicated thousands of words and quasi scientific BS to making sure we all understand why the "california" swing is superfragicalalisticially better. He specifically demonstrates the "high swing", which is about way short of an official CF swing. Jeff's arms and high bodyfat are clear indication of the need for him to start swinging higher. Included is Pavel's exact lessons on "power breathing", as poo pooed by Mr. Sonnon, as well. It's all just so confusing I'm going to go workout.

Martone seems to have been adopted as the Crossfit kettlebell guy.

Well, I think it's more he is the official CF KB dude, the Buddy Lee of KBs, if you will. The funny thing is how the RKC methods can be adopted whole cloth, despite years of dissing, because, as we know, CF is everything.

Here's the deal, Abby.

CF >>>>> everything

Crossfit is everything, it incorporates everything, but, unlike Bruce Lee, it never discards.

I didn't think Martone looked chubs. Was that a joke? Or a new vid I haven't bothered to watch?

Somethings that we haven't yet seen wholesale that is Crossfit:

1. Monolifts
2. Muscle Control
3. Dynamic tension

But rest assured, they are all part of Crossfit.

Joke. He's ripped, and has been every time I've seen him. He was my "team leader" at the RKC. He has somehow done that with half hieght swings. Amazing.

He was at Ethan Reeve's WFU seminar with Pavel a few years back. Extremely nice and humble man.

Honestly, if this turns you on, just stuff a guy in the asshole & get it over with.

Dag.

Ima gonna head on over to the Coco thread and refresh my eyes, which have been damagified.

I think she's sporting a chubby...........

I'm sure she's a sweet chick but it's hard for a girl to look sexy when she's sportin' traps, 16-inch arms and a thick muscular waist. She's a performance based athletic chick with an Olympic pedigree so she's not too wrapped up in how she looks...my opinion only. But man, watch out when she starts dialing it back. She reminds me of a chick I went to school with. This girl had been a competitive gymnast all through grade school, junior/senior high school then gave it up when she started college. She looked awesome when I first met her but when she stopped working out 5 hours a day she started turning into a woman again but with all that muscle still on her. She was all tits and ass but with traps, crazy delts, arms, calves etc. I've never seen hands on a woman like her ever...very meaty almost muscular. She never arm wrestled ever and placed in the chick division in an all university arm-wrestling tourney. But, and there's always a big but, she just had too much of everything. I'd wager this Eva chick will not want to let that hard earned muscle go and when she hits forty she's gonna look like a Mack truck with blue eyeshadow. Hopefully I'm wrong. I'd rather fight Makena than her.

Check out the fucking comments.
All of @fit wants to climb up in that.
Do they even know that they're wanting to fuck a tranny?
Are they aware that they are gay?

If I'm not mistaken, she's already 40-something.

As for CFKB swings, I never saw the use of going overhead. Lots of wasted time and effort.
And they all use 2 hands.

You're over compensating...again.

Well, it "floats" up there at the top. If you want that pause, then just fucking snatch it.

And it don't see much point in 2-handing it all the time, unless you're swinging a big one and 1 hand isn't an option.

That is exactly what I learned this weekend: If you are going to go high, snatch it. Swings humbled me. I had so many tech errors on the thing and it is the simplest move in the Big Six of kbell lifts.

So: if you are going to swing it high, snatch it. Then count the reps. Don't stop doing them until you can't do them.

Dawg, it's both a blessing & a curse.

I am so glad someone picked up on that one. I was beginning to worry.

CF hardly ever goes heavier that 65lbs (2 pooooood) for swings and almost always for 21 reps. Always with 2 hands. Constantly varied as you can see.
I can think on one workout in the past 2 years where they incorporated a KB or DB snatch done the OTW. Their DB snatch is more of an Oly style done with a DB on one side.

Nice picture of DJ on Mrs. Rif's blog. Blame Rant for noticing that.

I didn't even notice it till you mentioned it. Several people have sent me various DJ pics from the cert. I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do with them.
