Just having a little fun in the gym last night.
Something new to try just for the hell of it!

Wow that is such an incredible idea.
Of course I’ll do it first thing tomorrow just for you.
Wouldn’t want to disappoint the fans. Lol
meanwhile at crossfit…

“Yeah but it looks cool and most people wouldn’t have the ‘guts’ to try it.” (What I imagine a crossfitter is thinking)
I think it’s hilarious how CF plates are so huge. Looks like he is snatching 135 kilos, not pounds 
That is impressive as hell. Seriously.
I also thought it was impressive as hell when that Walenda guy walked across the grand canyon on a tightrope last year. But some things are just freakin dangerous.
Crossfitb, there’s nothing wrong with cutting up and having fun, but I can now see that move becoming a staple in crossfit gyms.
Crossfit started out as a good idea. It looks like a great workout and a lot of fun, and I was strongly considering giving it a try. But lately, it seems that it is turning into a circus trick. People need to calm down with this shit.
And to end on a positive note, I gotta reiterate, that was damned impressive.
I think it’s impressive but dude… that’s dangerous.
Has nothing to do with weightlifting.

Its Crossfit, every has to do with olympic lifting (as they would call it).
Box jumps: OLY LIFTING
Supersetting KB swings with the Rower: OLY LIFTING
Kipping muscle up seizures on rings: OLY LIFTING

Exactly. Weightlifting = circus now apparently.
Dangerous. Pointless. Stupid. But fun to watch you try to do it!
I think you’re missing the point of box jumps. They’re to build explosiveness, but that rep was a real grinder, taking close to five seconds to get onto the box.
