I love Crossfit, but there are times where I do disagree with the programming. Most of the time I find that Geaux's programming makes some sense, I don't usually see the WOD and think "well that's an injury waiting to happen".. but the Open WODs are another story. A couple of Open WODs this year made me stop and think "and this is why everyone shits on crossfit, this is super dangerous". Getting you exhausted then hitting cleans or snatches is just dangerous, there is no two ways about it. And for WODs with a high rep count of oly lifts.. it's really up to the coaches to call people out if they are ego lifting and/or form is falling apart.

Crossfit will definitely test your mobility and expose your weaknesses. Most of my mobility issues are in my shoulders.. which has caused me some strains in my shoulder and elbow. I say Crossfit is helping me get my body back from a lifetime of obesity, one WOD at a time.. but I know I'm going to face some minor injuries here and there, pushing myself and finding my limits. If you're not okay with that, then you probably need to avoid it.

I haven't said anything except you look butt hurt, which is my opinion. But, the more you post the more it looks like a fact.

That's exactly what you said. No where did you "give a few examples." you gave one recommendation, crossfit.

This is not your post and you didn't say anything?

You posted misleading info, I gave multiple examples of HIIT training in another post. You decided to jump in to the conversation and not read everything I am saying.

You are mistaken someone who doesn't allow people to makeup their own facts with someone who is butt hurt. I don't care what people say if it's the truth.

Here is the bottom line. I really don't care who likes or dislikes CrossFit. There are a multitude of ways to accomplish a leaner, healthier, and/or more fit lifestyle. Do whatever works for you and makes you happy. The biggest thing is to educate yourself with whatever you decide, listen to your body, and track your progress. Be open to new ideas, things are always evolving and changing.

I would stick to a basic greyskull template as Greek god would be too much volume more than likely.

A simple template of

Week 1
Day 1
Press
Squat
Weighted Chins


Day 2
Bench
Deads
Close Grip pushups

Day 3
Press
Squat
Weighted chins


Week 2

Day1
Bench
Squat
Close Grip bench

Day 2
Press
Deads
Weighted chins

Day 3
Bench
Squat
Close Grip bench

Close Grip bench is optional.

With as much volume you are doing I would do two sets for each, 1 set of 5, one of 5+ except deadlifts just do one set of those.

Keep the volume low, bust your arse and add weight or reps every session. Read the greyskull thread for more info.




I admit, I read the first few posts of Greyskull thread awhile back and it intimidated me with the amount of info. I'll buckle down and read through it and jump in
