I stoped watching after that stupid ass old lady screaming before she squats 50lbs. I don't understand why people do all these crazy things. It's ridiculous.

I often see teenager around my area doing calisthenic. Some of them are doing it properly and safe while majority of them doing it to show off their skill. They swing around their body at the bar trying to imitate the gymnast athlete. They throw over their body,flip it and catches the bar again. I watch a lot of them fall,fail to catches the bar back and others shit. Maybe this is kinda off topic but seriously i dont understand why they do things that are risky when they cant even done them properly.

I hate puny humans.....I wonder if any of these morons have actually thought about what they are doing. Obviously not.

Hahahaha this is some funny shit. My cousin does crossfit and I keep telling her it's dangerous as ****, but she doesn't listen and keeps telling me I should join, like it's a cult. SMH.

Still stand by my opinion that it's better than a bunch of couch potatoes.

I agree as long as it's done in a safe way and not a retarted way.

I absolutely agree, however, the snatch is a highly technical lift and if you were a couch potato yesterday, you should not be snatching today.

We all know it's the person, not the regimen.

It is indeed and that's why I started out snatching with a pvc pipe and every single person at my gym does the same.
Then 15lb bar. Then 45lb bar and so on. Now I snatch 225. Ta-dah!
