    Chicken and rice is delicious, but you aren't going to lose muscle mass like you have cancer or something. It is less optimal for purely gaining muscle that traditional lifting but crossfit workouts sometimes take a total of 6 minutes in addition to the strength portion. It's just a diff...

    Well, most of crossfit's core movements are powerlifting movements. But, yeah. It's more functional in that laying on your back and pressing a weight up and down 8 times happens in life almost never. Doing overhead tricep cable extensions and learning how to squat "properly" are a lot diff...

    This is kind of a ridiculous statement. I know probably a dozen people who go to crossfit almost every morning, women included, have made tremendous gains in the time that they have gone, and have none of these issues. It's like anything, you have to adjust. Typical "heavy lifters" at a gym...

    I was wrong about the name of your injury. I apologize wholeheartedly, but between your real injuries, your fake injuries, your self diagnosed injuries, the injury diagnoses of others, it adds up and gets muddled. Life of a goofy forum poster: Ask for advice from your imaginary Internet...

    Pretty much your whole body. It's safe if you are doing it right. It's a skill movement and anyone who does cleans/snatches and variations of them and does them properly is a strong motherfucker.

    Sorry, I'm not a doctor, so I confused it with one of your other 18 injures. You know, this nonsense: Let's just be honest. You aren't going to let either one heal. You are going to try and work around it. Have fun.

    Shoulder impingement. With whatever is wrong with that and your knee, you need to take time off. It isn't going to kill you, do cardio, use it as time to clean up your diet and drop bodyfat, but if you keep pushing shit something is going to give, literally. Then you'll be just had...

    Rep scheme is going to vary, I mean shit with isolation exercises. Like a typical magazine routine with the whole body hit over the course of a week or 6 days, if someone's only goal is putting on muscle for vanity sake.

    Honestly if someone is looking to add muscle for the sheer visual aspect of things, they should follow a typical bodybuilding routine. 5x5 or 5-3-1 or anything along those lines is geared towards strength, crossfit is more well rounded, so on and so on. Typical broscience routines are for...

    Of course I do. All of Poliquin's shit is cookie cutter from what people say when it comes to his trainers, you aren't being trained by him personally. He's been around for like two decades, the dogma is known. As far as the calipers, the dude you are paying is adjusting and reading the...

    You realize that based on what you are saying, you lost 4.5% bodyfat and essentially gained 5-10lbs of muscle simultaneously. The weight on the scale didn't move. This is all in less than two weeks. You could spend a month lifting weights while getting testosterone and HGH injections from a...

    Crossfit isn't easy and it isn't really supplemental. They market it as one size fits all and you aren't going to get much individual attention at a typical crossfit box. Someone who does only crossfit will be in better shape than someone who does only general lifting and stuff, without...

    That's pretty much it. There's zero thought that went into that program. None. It's just a typical Flex magazine type routine. That dude was in the military so people are going to think it's going to make them as fit as a Ranger and that's the point, it'll hook people. No one does workouts...
