IGX

I'm starting to think that somehow, someone should slip some high hurdles into a WOD.

This more or less confirms my solipsistic view that @fit exists almost solely for my personal entertainment.

We already know that the videos are going to be cringe-inducing. But what's really interesting is the dichotomy in the commentariat amongst the @fitters (I'm talking about the avid paid-up @fitters, excluding the outside haters and the Greek Chorus of IGx) between the people who are publicly arguing that the Open's programming is sadistic and retarded versus those arguing that it's elite and genius.

@fit is very much a nation at war with itself.

This is gonna be awesome. What boggles my mind is the sheer number of people who think doing this for 5 days straight will prepare them for doing it for real on the 6th day.

SPECIALIZATION TAKE MORE THAN 5 DAYS SUCKAS!

Throwing them at the competitors running up a hill would add an unknown and unknowable element to a simple 1k race.

They really need to do a special episode of Wipeout with x-fitters

Or, better yet, use steeple chase barriers, they don't give.

THis is what elite looks like. Fast forward to 10:00 if you want to see what it looks like to fail at a 135 snatch attempt.

THis one is even more Elite!

okay last video. ff to 10:31 to see what can be considered a snatch. The first minute of the video is pretty elite too!

In all fairness that is 25 pounds over his body weight.

Mental cleanse. Compare and Contrast.

This would be better. With real boulders.

Dear Shitfitters,

This is what a snatch looks like. I know you have heard rumours about what a snatch might feel, taste, and smell like but the shit you are posting online looks like a coach's worst nightmare.

Stay healthy,

These wod videos are a waste of youtube diskspace and bandwidth

Holy fucking hell. WHAT IS THIS SHIT!

"Good job, Mike! You're looking strong." What the fuck is Mike doing?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?

I decided that instead of doing 12.2 I'd mail my chiropractor a cheque for a thousand bucks, and submit my score as "RXed."

i like that their gym is called stripfit.

This is like GS, but not.

That's an awesome caption.

I just saw a private vid where the dude missed, what I am assuming to be the heavy work, and the second time he went to his knees and dropped it on the back of his leg, and was hopping around on one leg.

Serious idiocy.
