Cap, let's meet up tomorrow and hit up a crossfit workout. The WOD is kipping until your shoulders rip apart.

Keep guessing though,


Who is guessing?

Froning was a baseball player in HS and already muscular from traditional lifting.

Nah..

Tomorrow is ring dips for max reps every other minute for 8 minutes.

..and then 800M row, 50 box jumps, 50 squats and 25 burpees for time. I'm sure a guy in your condition could blow through the workout in 10 min.

so max dips in a minute on rings?

then you're gonna do rows? Whats the point of doing a shoulder press/tricep then transitioning into a cardio pull?

Then you're gonna do a bunch of plyo?

It's almost like you have no idea on muscle progression ,or compound training recommendations


ETA: Ididnt realize froning can only back squat 445, and only does 545 for dl.

No what?

I have two workouts tomorrow. I have a powerlift for chest/shoulders/tris, and then I have a 4 mile run and core workout that evening.

I will continue to do my workouts, as I'm working towards hitting 1400 raw. Thanks, but no thanks.

I've never been bugged by them. I actually met the owner of a "box" and he was really kind. He invited me to check out any session anytime I wanted.



Because he wanted you to become part of the cult... Go check out one of their sessions and question their techniques... Get back to me on how nice he is after that...

The funny thing is 99% of the people who rip crossfit never set foot in one and have tried a workout.

I have tried the workouts, and i did go to one.

When the "coaches" began to suggest doing moves and progressions that were dangerous, I politely declined.

To which your little cult then began to prod to get me to still attempt dangerous moves. No thanks....I like my shoulders and knees.

Oh, I cherry pick the workouts.

I avoid anything that involves high rep snatches.
