There was a post quite some ago from someone who started out possibly as an intern, they went on to become an actual coach, and then eventually left.

It was quite a lengthy post but i cant find it again. submitted by /u/kevandbev [link] … [Read more...]

Information on the powerdot?

by

Gullible? Probably. They say people that don't think they can be swayed by marketing are actually the most susceptible. I've borrowed a powerdot recently and if it doesn't actually help, at least it looks cool. Definitely think the portability is a stronger motivator than the other models (h-wave, complex, marc pro, etc). How do you like yours? Anybody got a promo code? ​ Getting old really sucks. submitted by … [Read more...]

BCAA – there’s so much conflicting messaging on the internet about supplementing BCAA’s. What’s your verdict?

by

I take this one. https://www.bulknutrients.com.au/products/bcaa-recovery/ But now I’m thinking of going without it because of what I’ve read. I’m training 5-6 times a week so I like warming up, stretching, massage guns, BCAA’s, protein supplements and sleep to aid my recovery. submitted by /u/Jolly_Swagman [link] [comments] SOURCE: CrossFit on reddit - Read entire story here. … [Read more...]

Adding a running regimen

by

Haven't been doing any crossfit in some time due to work 0430 to 1800 Monday-Saturday for the last 6 months. But I'm done soon and want to get back to my routine of M-Th at 1830, but I'd like to add running beyond what's in the wods here and there. The questions are how much is too much? Should I run on days I work out or on the days I don't? Currently running 2 miles at a time at about an 8:45 pace but I'm hoping to build … [Read more...]

I want to be good at CrossFit

by

It’s been a while since I’ve started CrossFit. It’s my first ever sports sort of activity workout thingy I actually enjoy. But I’m consistently suck at it. Coaches in new box taught me some basic stuff however he only verbally explains it not actually checking on me whether I could do it or not. So my question is how did you all improve your performance in CrossFit outside of given WOD. Out of coaches sight. I want to do something with myself. … [Read more...]

Who has moved from going to a box to doing CrossFit either in a home gym or globe gym? Advice?

by

So I need to cut back on my CrossFit membership and go back from the $200 a month unlimited to a much cheaper, 1-2 day a week pass because it’s simply too expensive. However I love the sport and want to maintain/continue to improve. I just wish the sport didn’t cater to those who have a lot of extra money to spend and was more inclusive to all. I have a home setup (except for a rower) and a globo gym membership. My box also posts their … [Read more...]

Make Contacts at (New) HQ?

by

I'm a mid-career professional who really wants to get involved with CF HQ now that it's in Boulder. I've applied to a couple of jobs through CrossFit.com, but I know that any online application is a long shot. I asked my former gym if they had any contacts, even an Affiliate Support Specialist or something, with whom I could talk at HQ. They didn't have any. Can anyone think of a strategy to make contacts at CF HQ? … [Read more...]
