Double unders are going to take an NFL pro a few weeks to learn?

Well, they will come up with a hundred reasons why ghr is bad for use in a Wad.... but, when confronted with the idea that maybe, just maybe, not all exercises (like ghr bench sit-ups) are appropriate for an as-fast-as-you-can-balls-to-the-wall-met-con they come unglued.WildGorillaMan wrote:How come no one ever does GHRs on a GHR bench? Is it because they're too hard? Is it because even with 20% slop most people can't even get one rep when they're first introduced to the GHR?
I actually did mention this in their forum but it wasn't well received.

Re: The couch thread
There's a surprising amount of non-stupid on that thread. I think that a couple years ago they would have been all "bring on the NFL- they can't hang". I've even got to agree with some of the sentiment, watching an NFL lineman squat, press, and pull for total would be interesting, way cooler than watching them bp two wheels for reps.The man in black wrote:http://board.crossfit.com/showthread.php?t=64140

I didn't know she was so put together. For a 40-something endurance athlete? Dayum.
One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.

These damn Tony Budding programming videos are making me dumber every time I watch one.
They're like a train wreck. Grotesque, horrible and embarrassing but I just can't look away.
Why would they even put them up? The man sounds like a retard. It literally looks like something someone would put up for the sole reason of ridiculing CrossFit.
(Okay, vent over. Carry on, guys.)
It's like one day you're on the track and you run this incredible PR in the mile, then you max on SN, CJ, BS and PR all three with huge jumps.
You're like:
FUCK YES, I got shit done today, I'm fucking monster;
and all day you're proud, trusting, and confident your training is on the right track.
And you know something bigs going to happen later on.
Then you go play beer bong at a bar.
You get trashed.
You get so drunk that it completely becomes impossible to stand up next to a chalkboard to draw lines.
You start taking shots of some strange bottle with cool labeling.
You try to jump over a dog like a hurdle and face plant into a toilet.
And suddenly you're aware you're in a different place, and there's people dressed like Michael Jackson.
You wake up the next morning after 3 hours of sleep.
You're limping for some reason, and dressed like Nick Nolte preparing for the World Series of Bowling.
You have this nasty Natty Light, dirty ping pong ball residue taste left over in your mouth, with dog hair stuck in your upper lip.
Your legs are dehydrated.
There's a Russian techno CD in your right pocket.
Your throat feels like ash
There's bird shit rubbed all over your left elbow.
Your lungs feel clouded.
You realize you gave $500 to a Brazilian stripper.
You feel like you've just lost a certain chunk of your athletic ability, well worth a week of training.
And you're like FUCK.
I feel obese.
Why am I wearing these Flashdance socks
This what my brain feels like after I watch a CrossFit video for 4 minutes.
It's taken its toll over the last few months. I have to balance it out with random notes from Supertraining

I like his posts and appreciate his anger, but he strikes me as a first year Sports Science undergraduate who is just coming to the realisation that some organisations and institutions in this world, eg Crossfit, for one, aren't as morally accountable as his parents told him they would be. And he's now just working through all that cognitive dissonance. But good on him, he's very entertaining.Holeyfraggaroley wrote:Apparently the dude from CA that is hammering the shit out of @fit has account here but its seems to be inactive or not activated.
