Did you stump everyone into silence with that question?

I used circuit training up until I got my HRM. Now, if I wear my HRM I log exactly what it says, and if I don't, I estimate my exertion and log a conservative estimate based on prior HRM readings. I find that using circuit training for only the WOD would be a pretty close match.

Haven't I been kicking *kitten* and taking names? :laugh:

Is it too late to thank you? :wink: While I'm here, can I welcome Sheila back to the land of the living?

I am psyched for you! So glad you decided to give it a shot. Next week will be six months for me; I'm getting my measurements taken. I can't wait to see how they compare to my first week. I've met several personal goals in the class, and I've set new ones. I'm constantly challenged, never bored. I have made some friends…

This is the kind of feedback I love to see in the threads: someone who has actually done CrossFit and has positive experiences to share. So different from someone who has never even tried CrossFit acting like an authority on the subject.

I have friends who require hearing aids, "Jane." Are you bashing people with physical disabilities now, too?

Isn't it more like neither one can be used to justify the other?

Did I miss you and Michael? *kicks rocks*

Here, let me sum up: The usual suspect is here bashing CrossFit, and this time there are people who don't even participate in CrossFit who are telling her exactly how lame it is that she can't just let it go. :laugh:

You rang?

OP, if you are interested in CrossFit, check out some of your local places that offer it. In my area, there are several places and they are each slightly different in approach and execution. Talk to the trainers and find out what their credentials are. Talk to some of the people who work out there, and get their take on…

How YOU doin'?

You know the answer to that already, right? That there will be a good number of people here who will chime in and agree with you, and a metric * * * * ton of people who will disagree and have a field day with this topic? So if it's a rhetorical question, what's your point? You think you're outing people with this thread?…

I'm sorry. May I offer you some Koolaid? :drinker:

Did somebody move it on you?

Anybody around on this glorious Friday morning?

Thanks to SideSteel, who posted this link this morning. I'm just gonna leave this here: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=154214711 (World record being obliterated by a woman in Nashua NH at a CrossFit competition.) Haters please feel free to scrutinize her form. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Right? One of the best bellydancers in the SCA was 300+ pounds. She was incredible. Her size did not hinder her one bit.

I like beefcake!

When you go to a club and your friend says "WOW! You can really dance!" as if it's some kind of miracle. :grumble:

Like China, you mean? Where they just stab them? Go ahead and Google "rash of school stabbings in China." I'll wait. ETA: Just wanted to convey my thanks to Olivia for putting this thread out of its misery.

Technically, no one has the right to discuss concealed weapons laws anywhere in the main forums. It's considered political and therefore should only be discussed within Groups. This thread WILL eventually get locked because it is against the rules. I'm guessing that it got put in Chit Chat because that tends to be the most…

FYI: It is NOT "rare" that innocent, uninvolved people get shot when "thugs" shoot at each other where I live. It's just "rare" that people with your attitude really care about it when it does happen. Did you see the footage of the Mother's Day shooting in New Orleans? I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't even hear about…
