• The Games

    Well, it’s that time of year again. I hate the games and what they did to CrossFit. I remember starry-eyed “athletes” coming to my CF box with competing as a goal. Guys who I could, at 48, out deadlift. I was nowhere near ready to compete (nor did I have the desire). To me, it…

  • CF Mainsite

    I did a 200m run (fairly quickly), 5 hip extensions, and 5 GHD situps as a warmup. I felt pretty decent. I am following the mainsite again. The posted workout is sets of 3 weighted pullups for load. I did negatives. 5×3 Pullup negatives. I definitely feel these!
