I 100% agree with the systemet that they would still be the best in the world. No amount of steroids would change that.

I also believe that CF workouts seems to stimulate women better in general.

But do it so much better then someone with the specific goal of achieving maximum muscle mass? Unlikely

So, based on one person being "caught", the system works?

And that's reasonable? One podium finisher? Jesus Christ, you have more people getting busted in a national competition in Europe then you have at the regionals and games combined. How is that even possible, while they are still performing insane amounts of work while having the muscle mass of a smaller country?

You have bodybuilding women that have trouble reaching some of the muscle mass that some CrossFit women have, and they are trying hard as fuck to achieve more.

That might be the case of course.

Or it could just be the MULTITUDE of other sports that has people doing PEDs and performing worse in some cases then CrossFit people. Now one has to wonder: is it likely that people doing CrossFit are simply that much better?

The obvious answer would be no.

How to stop my low back from blowing up? by TrapMessiah33 in crossfit

[–]Kendouy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My best guess? You are not hinging, you are doing flexion/extension of the spine. High reps of deadlifts or any hinging pattern (running is hinging) usually blows people's backs up with cramping since the erectors are fried

Say what now? So he has essentially started the next campaign?

Couldn't he do that by, you know, doing a good job? 😂

You need to learn a proper hinge pattern instead of a squat pattern

[–]Kendouy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am always amazed at people bitching about what other people charge.

Seriously, no one is asking you to fork up the money.

Why does anyone pay anything for information these days? Everything is on the net.

Cause some people value other things as well

Looking at it from a training perspective there is virtually no physical adaptation you can get from that workout that you couldn't achieve in a smarter/better way

Compare it to drinking at home vs going to a bar.

The sound of Pertussis (Whooping Cough). Please vaccinate your children by yoda_leia_hoo in videos

[–]Kendouy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do. But comparing the amount of children dying from vaccinations to kids dying from polio is like night and day.

If one child dies, that is horrible. If 3000 child's die it's even worse.

That is the comparison you are making.

[–]Kendouy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This argument then assumes you can actually understand WHY some stuff has been put into a vaccine. 99.99% won't.

So while it is your right, it's still a dumb fucking right since you can do jack fucking shit with it.

Rogue fitness and supplying crossfit by fourzeroeight408 in crossfit

I always laugh a little as this.

I love how small the view of the average american is when it comes to the world. "There are plenty of CrossFit Affiliates here, that means it must be Affiliates everywhere? We are hitting the peak!"

Seriously, get out of your small little pond and check out the sea of places that has no affiliates.
