protobuilder wrote:Hey Crossfitters, a question.

Why don't the WOD's include, say, kickball? Why do you neglect the modal domain of kicking a ball? Kicking is a very natural, even fundamental human movement? So, why don't you train it?

And, since you don't train it, what modal domain DO you train that will prepare you for kicking a ball?? Please don't tell me you're inadequately prepared for this task. You never know what life, or combat, will throw at you.

Thanks.

Props to her. She seems genuinely enthusiastic about her training. A female doesn't hit 260/255 by accident.

Good on you, ANYC.

Maybe post a video in digital coaching, or over in Ripp's forum.

That's like being the smartest kid with downs syndrome. What's better than winning 6 gold medals at the Special Olympics? Not being fucking retarded!

On Monday I was doing my normal warm-up. It's similar to the CFWU, but I include 5 minutes of Jump Rope and DU practice and GH sit-ups rather then abmat. I skipped any Pull-ups because that was part of my WOD.

After the few exercises, I moved to the Glute Ham Developer. On the first rep I feel this pop in my stomach. Since then I've got a sharp pain that is about 3inches left of my naval.

It doesn't hurt when I'm sitting here relaxing, but with any strain or full extension I get a sharp pain. For example, any pushups, pull-ups, or even extending both arms fully above my head and leaning back hurts. It is a sharp pain that goes away whenever I relax my ab muscles.

On a scale of 1-10 I'd say it's a 6. It's not enough to make me stop doing whatever exercise is causing the pain, but it is very uncomfortable.

Does anyone have any idea what the injury is and what course or treatment I should follow? Will continuing to workout make the problem worse?

Guy got hurt in his WARM-UP. Are you kidding me?

Let's assume that "10" requires patient-controlled analgesia,

Meh. What you call sleepytime plus, we call Fran.

BLOODY HELL!

Now imagine how much easier it would've been with the high pain threshold you develop through Cultfit. When you're as work-hardened as Couch, pain don't hurt.

Gin, even if it doesn't make you perform better, you sure as hell believe you're performing better. In the end that's all that matters if you're an over weight gimp with a fitness empire.
