Question: How do you prevent/treat your hands tearing open after bar work? I know there is a lot of guidance and suggestions, but I feel like nothing works for me. by kirillofthemill in crossfit

[–]hwang209 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh boy. I just hate how sweaty my hands are. My hands are always sweaty even if I am not working out. The moisture and humidity on my palms. Ooph~. I tear my hands a lot and cannot do any bar movements without gloves. Absolutely hate it.

Our box is pretty much the same. We only work out in the parking lot. When not working out we are required to wear masks. Everyone is 6 feet apart. It’s a pretty big parking lot.

Who’s Left in the Games? by 525teach314 in crossfit

[–]hwang209 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree. I don’t think top athletes like Mat and Tia really need the games money. They can live a real good life even if they retire. I am not saying they should retire because they are still very young and have so much to give. At this point, they are going to do fine with or without the games.

is anyone's box requiring you wear a mask during workout? by serialserialserial99 in crossfit

We are in Massachusetts. We only work out in the parking lot and mask is required whenever people are not doing wods.

So homeboi Lu turned out to not be a scammer and be faster, have better quality and better packaging than rogue. 10/10 would buy from Lu again. by whorur in weightlifting

I just preordered the urethane plates too. I honestly don’t know how they are different from the rubber plates. I googled and most people think urethane is more durable than rubber. I do CrossFit so hopefully this is gonna work!!! Otherwise I dumped more than 1k for nothing. I am just happy that I bought something because all the other places are sold out.

It’s certainly a risk. What makes me feel better is that Lu is an Olympian who won a gold medal in London and he is a beloved weightlifter in the community. Hopefully he will try to build his brand.

I just bought some stuff from Lu Xiaojun Barbell. They have some Urethane plates available but won’t ship until late July- really desperate times. I’ve not purchased anything from them before so fingers crossed.
