I’ve been doing CrossFit since 2007, so you can imagine how many shirts I have from boxes and competitions. A lot of them don’t fit anymore and some I have to stop wearing because they are getting worn out.

What does everyone do with their shirts? I want to display them somehow.

What happened to Armen? His last post was in 2023 on instagram.

Guys help today I did a 30 inch box jump for the first time then I tried a 34 box jump right after and it went great then I went to do it again and aomerhing jus thappened I don't know why I just can't do it I cant jump what do I do

I’ve been doing CrossFit for around 3 years now but I wanted to take it to the next level, specifically when it comes to strengthening some specific parts of my body: for aesthetic and performance reasons.

As such I’ve been doing complementary workouts for around 1 and a half month now but I’ve been wondering if I’m doing it right. Usually what I do is before the WOD or right after I do some of these exercises:

• Bench press • Shoulder press • Hammer curls • Tricep dips • Tricep overhead extension • Dumbbell shrugs • Pull ups • Chest dips

Do any of you do the same or have some tips for me? Thanks!

I’m doing a local partner competition. Consists of 3 wods. I don’t have them in front of me right now so I can’t share what they are. Basically 1 is a sled pull and push and a 100m sprint in between. The second one is power snatch’s and something else.. and then a 1rm squat clean. The last one is a bunch of different movements.. 40 toes to bar..40 calories on the ski.. 40 db box step overs…40calories on the bike… and a few more movements..

Okay now that I listed all that.. what do you guys suggest as far as working out and training this week? Normally I lift Monday (chest and arms) Tuesday- Friday CrossFit and Saturday lift (chest and arms).

So with that being said should I stick with my normal routine but go light during classes this week? What would you guys do. Also any other advice leading up to a completion is appreciated. For context I’m 39 year old male. 245#s. I can lift heavy and move fairly well in metcons but I do struggle with endurance/cardio

Hello everyone, I just started crossfit a month ago and love it so far. Im going to travel for a month, so no WOD for a month, and I thought to work on my handstand walk skills and DU. DU im confident i can get to 10 UB in a month (and even more maybe) But handstand walk I have no clue. How long do you think it could take ? Any tips is welcome !!! Is it better to work on free handstand then starting to handstand walk or its 2 different things?

FYI: i can do like 10 reps of strict hspu from abmat if you need this info for your estimation😉

I own a box in a downtown core and continue to see fewer benefits to being affiliated with CrossFit. The google trends search traffic for CrossFit are horrible. This year, CrossFit continues to damage the brand with the events of the games and now they are raising fees 50% with no tangible benefits.

Why should we continue to be a part of it?

Posting this in diff subs. I'm 54 and recovering from a medical issue that had me lose 15% of body weight a couple of years ago. I haven't really done any consistent weightlifting since then but I did start with some squats recently. I weight 192 and can do about 75 lbs 30 times (3 sets of 10). My thighs are pretty thinned out. I'm a competitive tennis player and notice I can't laterally split step and react as well as I used to. What's the best way to get that back. I think my calves probably had a lot to do with my spring in the past.

Is there any way to recover fast twitch muscle lost to age over 50. Should I just forego sprints and plyo at this age and accept it and move to doubles?

Does anyone else feel their fitness got less in winter?

My boyfriend needs new crossfit/lifting shoes, and Im looking to get them for him for Christmas. Any recommendations? What are the best ones?

The title says most of it, but, seeing the latest retirement video of Katrín Davíðsdóttir and with some other athletes already retired what do you think that the new era brings to the table?

I started doing CF while Fraser and Tia were on their prime, along with many other athletes. Do you find the level of the new athletes similar or even better? Do you think that we will achieve such level of competition considering the troubles that HQ is going through?

So many questions and I cannot really answer them. Even worse, I cannot even lean towards one answer of another

Good morning everyone. I currently use the rebook nano x4. Great when I train in them, I even use them for strongman. But when it comes to running, box jump overs and jump rope my feet start cramping up. Any suggestions on shoes? I was doing some research about TYR but apparently they’re not good for rope climbs

Anyone have shoulder mobility routine that has worked well for tender joints?

I have always been able to tell that my shoulders are my least resilient joints. Through CrossFit they have gotten wayyy stronger but now may have new issues because they are often tight. I want to continue to progress in CrossFit but make sure I’m keeping healthy joints.

I do yoga 1-2x per week and we warm up the joints before WODs. But I’d like to get into an effective supplemental routine. An old gym I went to did lacrosse ball shoulder mobility before every class and I felt like that was a decent program but it was many years ago.

Thank you for any help!

Hope everyone’s well.

I severed a couple of tendons in my right hand, doing the bloody washing up, a couple of weeks ago. Was in theatre a couple of days later for a small op to re-sew the tendons.

It seems it’s quite a complicated injury, with a high likelihood of complications if the re attached tendons aren’t well looked after, for a period of up to 12 weeks postop.

I can start cardio sessions next week. Static bike and some core but obviously can’t do anything that involves any gripping or weight/tension on the hand.

So that means potentially another nine weeks without high intensity classes, while otherwise feeling generally fit and able.

Just wondering if anyone has any coping tips for relatively long periods of inactivity? Little things I can do to keep things ticking over or good workouts you’ve come across online that might work in these circumstances?

Thanks

For the most part I would say I am reasonably clued in as to what I should be doing nutrition-wise, but would like something to take some of the thinking out of it. My current goal is to steadily put on some weight. Haven’t seen anything on here about RP within the past year or so, so any thoughts appreciated!

Can anyone give best gym recommendations for Denver CO? Moving in January and want to join a gym with good competition.

Not interested in any gyms that are political in any way. I just want to workout and get better.

Any recommendations are appreciated. CrossFit Wash Park is one I’m look at.

Good Evening Everyone,

I've been crossfiting for 3 years or so. I had shoulder surgery a year ago and have made essentially a full recovery, aside from my inability to get into the front rack. I'm getting closer and use a mobility app. Any exercises/insight? Thanks in advance !

Following a more structured strength program, doing less hit/ metcons for now. Was running but got hurt and it’s like 15° where I’m at lol, what is your favorite way to train liss indoors that targets lower intensity aerobic training because I’ll already be fatigued from lifting? Rowing, cycling, swimming, incline tread all options

Hi All!

I don’t normally post in this forum, but figured this might be the perfect group to ask. Has anyone here had to get a hip replacement young while still active in the gym?

My cousin is 36F, a lifelong athlete, has been active in gymnastics her whole life and crossfit since she became an adult. She’s also getting her hip replaced this month due to a combination of genetic factors and her serious commitment to athletics and fitness.

All of that said, has anyone been through this and can help me with ideas for a care package to send her for when she wakes up from surgery? The only experience I have with hip replacements is with seniors, she clearly will have different wants and needs post surgery. Any advice would be welcomed!!!

We’re just finishing up a cycle of working muscle ups, or pull ups/C2B if you’re not ready for MU. I can dead hang well, do plenty of scap PUs easily, do box kipping pull ups and have been told I have a great kip swing.

However, if you take the box away and try for the kipping PU, I absolutely canNOT bend my arms to get my chin over the bar. Plus, my lats go on strike when I’m not on a box or using bands and goes right to my biceps. But the arm bend is driving me nuts! I’m really a lifter and suck at gymnastics/cardio. My lats understand the assignment, but outright refuse to work. Suggestions?

So, my gym does Filthy fifty on thanksgiving every year. I was traveling, so I did it a day late. Which means I logged it into SugarWOD a day late and now no one is going to see my score.

Do I quit my gym? Do I start a gymnastics program? Should I buy new shoes?

Help me deal with this.
