Some CFer must have fricked your girlfriend, or your perceived expert ability in one thing is considered fringe by the CF community to a point that it pisses you off to no end.
Please link or show how you or another crossfitter could compete at even high school levels of the sports mentioned in crossfits own bio???
I dare you. Triple dog dare you. Otherwise you are a kool-aid drinker.

Well similar to how that article refers to marathoners and powerlifters as fringe athletes, we should also refer to the elite in any sport as fringe athletes. By definition, they are far outside the abilities of most people regardless of type and level of training.

So you think this elite trainer trains an NFL safety the same as a triathlete or a marathoner. Same skill sets right, I mean they must be, or why the frick would you mention it in this context

AL of that was before he did crossfire baw. You losing your marbles

But no one suggested that, it only said that these specialized athletes are not trained in all aspects of fitness. That is it...goddamn. What is wrong with you

I think you are reading that passage way too literally.

I'm pretty sure a 28 year old Froning would make a HS baseball team, dumbass.

I don't like the athlete part of the description, but yeah, a lot of times these elite athletes in many sports have trained themselves into being absolutely unbelievable in a very specific task..at the risk of being less effective at others.
A left handed starting pitcher has a different skill set and needs to perform his trade, than say a positional player such as a shortstop. One is more fit than the other....the one that can perform the highest over muliple domains...and it usually isn't the specialty athlete. Usually....not a bad thing, not everything has to be good or bad..

You are the biggest dipshit on this site, and that is saying something with rethaeh running around.
Posted on 3/25/15 at 9:17 pm to LSUAlum2001
Not because of his crossfitting. He was already a stud baseball player years before.

What? You are a loon too. Quit drinking.

His point is that these guys couldn't compete at HS level sports.
I just proved they can with the most obvious of all CF athletes. CptBengal, even with his hate of CF, will agree that these elite CF athletes were athletes in other sports before jumping into CF.

You lost the argument, so whine now? I'm conservative by the way, so....my point is you can't prove crossfit claims, but keep on trying....why don't they compete in real sporting events if they are so fit and athletic? They can't.
Posted on 3/25/15 at 9:21 pm to Taurus
Do you watch the cf games? The guys there are way more fit then track athletes across a much broader spectrum.
Btw you are a fricking loon, and before you call me a loon or kool aid drinker, i dispise organized crossfit, for men atleast.
