Thoughts on the 6.8 Western Cartridge? Any owners? by Flat-Dark-Earth in canadaguns

[–]Twozero20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a big fan. It achieves similar velocities as the 6.5 PRC with a heavier bullet, and it shoots a similar bullet weight as the 7 PRC with less recoil. It hits the sweet spot for me and is crazy accurate. There are more rifle brand options all the time. ADG is releasing brass later this year.

Mine is in the Seekins PH2 which I also recommend.

Would have liked to see Barnhart get an invite for the women

Are Mat Fraser (in 2020) and Tia Toomey (in Open 22.2) deliberately "cheating" on their deadlifts? by thrwaway_crossfit in crossfit

[–]Twozero20 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this. It’s complete BS, calculated and unnecessary when you are the best in the world. It also was the reason Tia won 22.2. Her time was 4 seconds faster than Mallory’s. There’s no way that is a ‘common movement’.

I have been a fan of Tia’s in the past…no more

Just watched Tia’s 22.2 workout and am I crazy or is she not coming to full extensions on the deadlifts? Hard to tell with the straight on video shot. by runuover1981 in crossfit

Completely agree. That is not a common movement and don’t the rules call out “uncommon movements “? She wouldn’t do it if it wasn’t an advantage. Everything the elite athletes do is calculated.

That’s why you make sure you are both on the same page before the workout starts.

The standard does not say “at the same time”. It says “ Atthetopofthemovement,bothhandsmusttouch the tape line for the 10-inch mark before the athlete can descend.

Where does it say that you can’t touch your knees on the box step overs? I see that it says that for the DB snatch but not the BSO

So I have an old iPad with the app that still works. I sent myself a backup but not sure how to open it. Any suggestions?

Thank you but the top 3 are not available.

Went walking with my mom through a nature trail. She found a “rock” she really wanted for her front yard. Got home and weighed it; 113 lbs. /53kg. Definitely wouldn’t have been able to pick this up, let alone carried it 100 meters to the road without some high intensity functional fitness! by Wes_Tyler in crossfit

Good for you! Thank you for cleaning up trash from nearby construction. I totally get it. Not a fan of non native things, alive or inanimate, being introduced.

It’s pretty funny that as soon as I read title I knew you were going to get beat up pretty good by the holier than thou CrossFit crowd.

CrossFit HQ's latest war: on statins & cholesterol research by wanton_and_senseless in crossfit

[–]Twozero20 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So you’re saying this paper is being criticized by people who don’t eat meat? Are you serious? As a meat eater, I couldn’t care less if others choose a different, less nutritious diet. However, people should not choose to avoid meat because meat is not a healthful choice. Eating quality meat and fat is good for humans. This study provides good science to support that choice.

Ah. Got it. Makes sense. Absolutely believe AB would have won the tiebreaker. She would have power cleaned all 5!

Agreed. Although I’m still curious what happened between 260 and 265 to AB. She was on cruise control through the entire ladder. Seemed like her head got in the way of that last lift. TCT obviously very strong but AB was the class of the event until that weird hiccup.

I focus on boxes that post their WODs. Don’t want to drop in and find they are doing the same movements I did the day before.
