looks great...very normal guy uber fit
You ever watch crossfit tournaments? They are all bigger than you and ripped. Who cares how they train if they enjoy it? By the looks of half of your physiques you may want to take up crossfit!
Horseshit! Take a cross sample of lifters in a conventional gym, and then compare that to a cross sample of members at your typical crossfit gym. You will see many major differences:
1: Conventional gym goers have been lifting far longer than cross-fitters.
2: Cross fitters are mostly early 20s to late 30s while conventional lifters are spread out across all ages.
3: Conventional lifters have better physiques and general health.
That tells me all I need to know. I played football for 13 years and rugby for 4. Abusing your body just for the sake of ego alone is fucking stupid, and you will pay dearly for it. I wish I could go back and tell myself that 2 decades ago. There is plenty of ego in conventional lifting for me.
I'll be happy with a physique that looks like a fucking tank, and those crossfitters can have fun with their elbow replacements and spinal surgery.
its kind of funny you mention spinal surgery...the other half got into crossfit when he effed his back up doing deads ...and it wasn't the deads that actually did it...someone literally hip checked the bar walking past him mid lift
started exploring more functional movements after an ortho told him he needed surgery for it...and should start on cortisone injections right away and that he should stop lifting
I called about a half a dzn ppl I knew and asked for chiro referrals ..found a great one that got him pretty fixed up and he suggested he continue weight lifting but to look into core protection (strength)
crossfit as anything anyone has heard of if pretty new so I don't know that it could be compared reasonably for longevity...ditto on the age of the avg crossfitter
I think citing conventional lifters have better general health is probably pretty far off when a good del of them load up on meaningless supplements at best and I don't even mean gear.
now the paleo only push peeves me quite a bit but so does the idea that there's only one way to skin a cat whther it be diet, or training
I guess I just don't get all the hate
I see some phenomenally stupid shit in my regular gym every fricken day ..like I'd love to find whatever trainer is showing people how to use kettle bells like they're painting fuckin fences
and I'd like to murder as least one ass basket daily in either the squat rack or the flat bench and only pray they don't pass along their terrible form and ego driven weights to someone else.
I say hes 185 max. Looks good though.
agreed if not less if he's 5'9". Im 1 inch taller and when I was at that weight I was bigger. so unless that guys got some dense ass wheels no way 185.Lol, he's 175 unless she's 5'10" lol

LMAO! seems like they're always doing lunges all over the freaking place! Get the fuck out the way!I have two friends that do crossfit, and im happy for them. they still just look skinny. But if I have to hear about their WOD that they do at their Box that consists of ?50 doubles, 75 lazy susans, and 50 skip to my loos? one more time, Im gonna flip out and punch them both in the fucking face. I am sick of their stupid carch phrases and vague words designed to make you ask "wtf r u talking about I could puke. but then again maybe its just me. lol
somehow I will learn to cope with all the crossfitters being bigger than me
all of my recent shots but one are from work... man dude if you like crossfit fine...you don't have to hate it and we don't have to like it
Now take this sample compared to regular people or people on this board alone. You all bash a lifting style yet I see maybe 5 guys on this whole forum who have ever had a good physique. Why bash if you don't like it. I dont call you all fat, maybe I should start huh? I'd love to lift with the hard chargers on here. One if you talk a lot and your physique sucks you know nothing. Two, the best I've seen in any sport listen and do work instead of arguing about which workout is superior.
