Fanatics

"I was on the side of righteousness and, like any fundamentalist, I could only stay there by avoiding information."
Lierre Keith
I read that quote and thought how appropriate for the CF community. Continually denying any information that runs contrary to their beliefs. Continually reducing their exposure to the outside world of health and fitness research, research that proves them wrong.
Here is a link to a great article by Rob Miller who was one of the first professional athletes courted by crossfit to back up their model.


FRIDAY’S WORKOUT
Row 500 meters
DROM
Press 5 @ 45/5 @ 55/1+ @ 110 (got 2)
Swings 3 x 15 @ 35
The above 2 were done as a circuit

Weighted pull ups 3 x 1 @ 25
Floor Wipers 3 x 10 @ 135
The above 2 were done as a circuit

Dips 3 x 5 @ 80lb assist

I decided that I would try and do 2 a day workouts, saving the rowing for the afternoon. It will be an attempt to recover more and see if that has an effect on the row times.
