HARD

People like to bag on Cross Fit.  I say it is a hell of a program if you stay away from snatches and overhead squats.  Those tend to mess me up.  Otherwise, it is great, and the variety is top notch.

Today was:

332 deadlift
220 bench press
160 full squat clean

For 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 reps.  Go as quick as you can.  These are 1.5 bodyweight deadlift, bodyweight bench, 3/4 bodyweight clean.  I did it in 36:24.  Not blazing, but all things considered not bad.

Try it, then let me know if you think Cross Fit is bunk.  I tailor the workouts to fit me when neccesary, I suggest you do the same.

I know this, despite losing weight my strength is up and my front squat is at PR status.  Go figure.

There are no secrets.
