"You know what’s another excellent way to get a musculoskeletal injury?” one poster asked in reply to Picker’s assessment. “Getting shot because you can’t run fast enough with 50 [pounds] on your back!”" Love that line. If I were a betting man I would back it not being made by a serving m...

THAT goofy bastard is the infamous Couch?? The feckless leader of the cultfit horde of mediocrity?? That's almost as good as the pictures nex to the "Forging Elite Fitness" banner on the cultfitnyc board: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3068/2419983760_30af10041b.jpg A solid opening post. ...

Thats another annoying thing about Crossfit. They think it's the best system for everything and end up lumping LE, military, firefighters, prison guards etc all into the same group. If they think the fitness require to walk 40k carrying all your ammunition, food, water, radios etc is the same as th...

Max got a 183kg c+j just by doing the wod it would appear. That's ace! How come the Bulgarians haven't picked up on this yet? Looks like USA gonna sweep the board at the oly's this year.

it's not even that good looking a dog. Fucking sicko.

the tattoo pic makes me weep for mankind.

Surely even the most diehard x-fitters must cringe at this kind of idocy?

I mean, I've got a tattoo of Dan John's face on my arm but it's done well - tasteful and that.

to be fair some are in the 450-500 range. I occassionally do x-fit WOD's and posted a 450ish one a month or two back, and a few people beat me. If you read the logs, some people implement x-fit quite intelligently - eg have a weights/strength focus day and then a couple of gpp days. But then again, ...

sorry, I have a disease which makes me say stupid shit..

The ability to call someone "Wimp" is definitely part of the XF draw. How else can you be 6'2" and 164 lbs and call someone a wimp? Funnily enough it's the same reason I whore out my arse to upwards of fifteen truck drivers a night at the M6 service station outside Penrith. Well, tha...

Yea, I was thinking so, too.

That's a good thing. Eventually you will mistake the feelings of familiarity for feelings of love. And that's when I bum you into oblivion and clean out your bank account.

Not to nit-pick with my first post, but Ali-esque performance in any sport is probably beyond the capabilities of 99.999999999999% of the population. There are many paths to eliteness. I'm counting on the fact that 99.999999999999% of the population won't want to join my Mongolian Style Goat Fuckin...

I think @fit is fine if you're suitably honest about what it can achieve and what you're using it for.

Words of moderation and reason have no place in this thread.

Sorry, what I meant to say was that @fit can heal the lame and help the blind to see.

Not to nit-pick with my first post, but Ali-esque performance in any sport is probably beyond the capabilities of 99.999999999999% of the population. I know it's good to have goals and to aim high, but lets be realistic. If you had the potential for this in any sport, chances are it would have been ...
