Default Re: Crossfit FAQ

Smiley,

I don't doubt that it's an "athletic" type program that mixes and matches all aspects, but I doubt the results are better than anything put together by other coaches for similar programs. Its the "one size fits all" approach that I detest about crossfit.

There are definitely some huge dudes out there. But I can't speculate why they are that big, if its due to crossfit or whatnot. Also its completely a performance oriented program since there are very elite crossfitters who look terrible.

Out of curiosity, when they say standing shoulder press... Do they mean a push press or just a regular standing shoulder press with strict form? I wonder why they wouldn't say that push presses >>>> regular presses since power output is so much higher.
