It's ok. It really doesn't affect me too heavily in terms of daily stuff, but it can make it kind of hard to read and it can make it difficult to look at distant objects. I'll probably just have to ask to be moved up in my classes to the front, not a big deal in exchange for corrected vision imo. | ||

It's not crossfit if he does it as part of a structured routine, with a regular progression plan. Plus those movements really aren't varied enough, he has no plans of competing in "crossfit" and he's not doing this exercise for its own sake, but rather to get better at boxing. I like crossfit, I love watching the games, and I've even thought using crossfit programming before, but there's more to it than just HIIT mixed with strength training... and probably the most important aspect of it is the social one, anyway. Without that I really find it hard to call something "crossfit." | ||

Working out wasn't functional until 1996, when Greg Glassman invented it. I do poke fun at Crossfit a lot, but If i'm honest the Games were fun as shit to watch this year. How cool would it be to do a CJ ladder event like they had? | ||

I'm thinking of hitting up the kettle bells because Joe Rogan talks very highly of them in his podcast. Where can I find the basic swings with proper form and some basic workouts without buying fitness DVD's? I've tried to do a bit of youtubing, but some of them I see contrast with each other and none of them are from people/organizations I recognize, so I'm not sure what to trust. | ||

thanks for the good luck! And yes, hip placement and how low you keep your body is everything when going up against bigger guys. I've really been trying to work hard on my technique, but I have noticed it is suffering due to not being able to go full speed in practice because of my injury. The best that I can describe it is that my L5 is completely fucked lol. Pain shoots out to the side of my back and it's been nagging since January  Finally went to a chiropractor and him adjusting my back seems to help a lot. I know that some people may not agree with the practice of chiropractors, but it is the only thing working for me at the moment. Good rest is what I need right now though, and I think that the next opponent may be pretty bad, so I might get to rest this week if my team doesn't really need me to win.@BenKen My coach lies about stats all the time xD Last year I was 5'9" - 165 lbs and he listed me as 5'11" 180 xD And congrats Momentoss! | ||

Got a nice lift in this morning, got under a 141kg snatch (missed it behind) and cleaned up to 155 (pretty shitty, tired from 20snatches). Good to finally get in on a saturday when everyone can show up and there's 30 lifters going heavy. I'll put up some vids later. | ||

Was squatting at the uni gym today & holy moly it was busy. Lines @ all the rax. Some dude came up to me though and said I had the best form of anyone he'd seen at there. He was a freshman but whatever, I was really happy. He asked me how I learned and I told him all about TLHF and how awesome we all are! And before that me n this hot girl @ a thrift shop had a "moment" lol Today was a good day -Ice Cube | ||

I can't describe how much I love snatches. They're still unintentionally power snatches, and then I just ride them down into an overhead squat. They're still not even at my bodyweight. They're still held back by technique rather than strength. While it would be nice to be better at them, I don't really care because they're just so fun. My ideal program would just be snatches, with a few deadlifts, ohp and pull-ups peppered in whenever. If only. | ||
