    I really hope that is a farce.

    those are some sorry sacks for excuses with form. and what is each plate - like 10 pounds? if that's a normal plate at 45 lbs, there is no way those people are lifting those. and if they are....i forsee a few shoulders, necks and backs getting blown out.

    good for a laugh...thanks.

    I know NOTHING about free weight training, but I think I got about 15 hernias just by watching this video! :-}

    but I did find this while looking for a better pic/meme to say I have nothing to add:

    And this is why some people consider Crossfit to be like a cult.

    Because people can look at that video and go "I don't see a problem."

    No. That's not it. It's that you don't understand what's going on. I didn't say it was right. I said that I see these types of videos, they are all over YouTube, and they are used to show how CrossFit sucks, but this isn't CrossFit training. So, it's a flawed piece of propoganda. But, people that don't know are aghast. It probably works pretty well to keep people away from CrossFit.

    This has been discuss on CrossFit forums. What they are doing is the "continental clean" not a traditional clean, and with a wide bar, not a standard bar.
    Not that I think that looks like a great idea or anything, but it's not as ghastly as if they were trying to do a regular clean/jerk and ending up doing that.
