Actually CrossFit HQ recommends a diet of 40/30/30 c/p/f You can read anywhere that the top cf athletes do not adhere to a strict paleo diet. Nobody in CrossFit is going to give a rats *kitten* what you eat unless you are constantly complaining about not getting results. So... Eat what you please, enjoy your WOD's, don't…

Jeez! This is ridiculous. I can't keep up with all the ways I'm supposed to act to please the rest of the effing planet. Not that I actually would. Ok, yes, I do wave to people when I run, but not for them, for me. If they don't wave back I don't care because I don't remember them 5 seconds later. I'M WORKING OUT. I don't…

The rope makes a HUGE difference. First: it needs to be properly sized, ESPECIALLY if you are learning. Once you have them, the length isn't such a big deal, but at first it's critical. Second: weight matters. A heavier rope will serve you a little better. Third: it's all about timing. Remember; SLOW JUMP-- FAST WHIP. Stay…

at least.

What is considered low carb these days?

No. Gay people only eat delicious food.

YES!

I'm confused. Only men lift weights? Only men drop weights? When I'm squatting 100# overhead I'm sure as hell not receiving that *kitten* on my shoulders. I'm dropping it. When I'm cleaning more than my body weight, I'm dropping it. Same with snatching. Oh, and I don't have a schlong.

Holy....

I never have either. I was hoping I'd get a nasty note about how CF is going to ruin my life, steal my husband and get me fired from my job. Oh well.

Do.Not.Quit. For the first three months I went home after ever class and cried. I thought of myself as VERY fit, but it takes a while to aclimate to that style of workout. I had finished two rounds of Insanity, two rounds of P90X, a half mary and the NYC marathon! Keep going! To this day I do not give a rats a** if I am…

So then what's the problem? You're implementing strategy, feel good about that. Or, for reals, get some help.

Get some professional help, love. It's very hard to overcome something like this on your own and before you know it you could be hurtling down a much different path of shame and destruction. You need solid tools that pertain to your situation, which more than likely has nothing to do with food or your weight. Yes, of…

So, I've been at this weight loss/fitness thing for about three years. when I look back over the 1000+ days, I know that the times I made myself workout when I was sick did not get me closer to my goals any faster. Just rest. You're sick. 200-500 cals don't matter over a lifetime.

I'm confused. If these are designed to flavor frosting, and one would normally flavor frosting with vanilla extract or coco powder and almond extract, or cinnamon..... Or any flavored extract imaginable, trust me you can find and make any flavor combo, even creamcicle. Why wouldn't you just do that yourself and avoid the…

This. my class is capped at 15 I think, and we have two coaches. We pay $18 bucks a class, the drop in rate is $20. Is that unreasonable for all the equipment, programmed WOD's, limited class size and TWO coaches at one of the top boxes in the country?

<~~~~ Crossfitter.

I don't compete. We are all awesome. At the same time. All of us.

Whew!

I love how on this site it's perfectly acceptable to *kitten* the quality of friends based on height and weight.

I love coffee.

The answer to all things. :heart:

Austin!!!

Everyone has already said this: you are doing awesome! You start where you start and just keep going up! Remember: we are all awesome. At the same time.

And if you bleed you're losing weight! WIN! This crap depresses me.

There are lots of good reasons to skip the gym.

I destroyed the thrusters in like 45-50 seconds or something. Then jumped up on an ICE COLD bar and some how managed 7 C2B. My hands were frozen. Going in I thought I might have 5 c2b, so I am mostly happy with 7. Of course now I wish I had gotten 15. :wink: So, 22 total reps.

I've done a lot of theses too; wall ball in the chin -- yes! Barbell to the chin-- yes! Barbell to the nose -- yes! I've also hit my chin on the ground doing burpees, and pinched my finger between plates.

When the alarm goes off at 5 am, I've already been out of bed for an hour.

Badass!
