There is No There There.

Read another good critique of crossfit yesterday. More and more people are realizing that this program is not sustainable, produces more that its share of injuries and does not help athletes with specific goals. They just don't seem to get that other than crossfitters competing against other crossfitters in a crossfit competition there are no outstanding athletes coming out of this model. The smart money is getting out and the whores who cash in on the brand are going to go down in flames when the whole thing unravels. End of today's rant.

FRIDAY'S WORKOUT
Row 5 minutes
DROM
Squat 5 @ 55/5 @ 65/5 @ 75
Bench press 5 @ 55/5 @ 65/5 @ 75

Superset:
Dips 5 x 4
Reverse Hyper 5 x 5
Farmers walk 5 x 40yds with 55lb DBs

The Beach Sprints are coming up in 2 weeks. After that I will start training for the 2012 sport which is triathlon.
I am thinking in terms of doing two shorter sprint races for practice and 2 Olympic distance events. The Olympic distance is a 1.5k swim, a 40k bike and a 10k run. Ought to be fun.
