I dislike the inherent retardation of people saying that strength is only functional if you developed that strength from, for the sake of the argument, a Crossfit workout. No. Strength is functional regardless of whether it’s from lifting weights, climbing ropes, or just having to carry around heavy objects. Your muscles don’t cease to work.

I never ENDORSED this product. I probably wouldn’t use any of this shit…I just wanted to point out that there are bigger fish to fry when it comes to poor training practices. [/quote]

Sorry, wasn’t directing the statement towards you in that sense. I don’t really care either so long as people put the effort into their training.

Wtf is this guy doing. Would you ever jump without bending your legs? This guy is so far from athletic it’s hilarious, yet they claim it’s for “sport performance”.
