  1. Good article Aim. There are actually a LOT of books written about this by some ridiculously smart people. If anyone cares about over training, I would recommend Zatsiorsky's book. You will take so much from it. I travel a lot and I preach CF a lot and I hear a lot of people saying, "well Rich Froning does it". For DECADES, people have tried the mimic the training style of the Bulgarians in lifting and they were never successful. Everyone must treat their body as an experiment of one and find out what you can do and what works for you. That being said, read and educate yourself so that you do not burn out. You may see short term results but in my opinion, long term is more important and it is not possible to see the detriment until it happens. I would be glad to talk to anymore about this more as it is actually something I am quite passionate about.

  3. Thanks, Jason. This actually may relate to a question I've been asking myself and have been curious if others have the same experience. I find that I virtually always have some soreness somewhere in my body from working out, and often in my shoulders and elbows after things like kettle bell swings and pull-ups. It generally feels like muscular soreness, so I tell myself that's a good thing b/c I'm working my muscles to new limits. But is it a good thing? I don't workout as frequently as many at the box do, probably 3-4x/week between the box and home WODs, but still experience this. Is this common/normal/healthy? Do I need even more rest (which I think I have too much of, frankly, b/c work often prevents working out as much as I'd like)?

  5. Mark: I will let others chime is as well but there could be a list of factors going on here including nuitrition, sleep habits, stress, overtraining, poor range of motion, past injuries being exposed etc.

    It is my opinion that when you work out, you will be sore but you should be able to tell the difference between soreness and pain. DOMS is the perfect example. I finish a workout and after it, I am fine but in two days, I feel like I got hit by a train..that is pretty normal. However, if it hurts during the workout or immediately after, something is wrong and you should have a coach look at your form or see an ART specialist or check your eating and sleeping habits.

  6. Also, if your shoulders are sore from kettlebells, you are likely using them to pull the weight up, not the thrust from your hip and if your elbows are sore from pullups, you are likely initiating your pull with your elbows and not your lats. Goes back to form.

  7. @Mark: I don't disagree with anything Jason says. I would only add that I have personally found that recovery takes longer as I have gotten older, and once I cleared 40 and started doing CrossFit, shit really got real with that. I am working much harder than before, but I definitely pay for it for longer too.

    That said, I'm a fan of DOMS. I'm a little demented like that.

    Good work everyone! Way to force yourself to get those double-unders.

  9. Thank you for the perspective! Lots to think about that I hadn't considered. btw - generally, I don't feel anything during the workout b/c I'm warmed up and loose; just after, usually the next day, and sometimes lasting 2-3 days. (Donkey, thanks as always for giving the cold, hard truth. Yes, age is surely a factor in my case.)

  10. Mark C: You're welcome.


    All classes had a 6 minute jumping activity cap, meaning that around 6 minutes they picked a finishing point if they hadn't gotten all 200/600 jumps in.

    530 Class:

    Kyle Bryant: Vest+15#DB/ 18:04 (35 jumps)
    Stasie: 55#/17:34 (500SU)
    Jim C: 115#/12:42 (84 DU)
    Derreck: 125#/14:20 (75DU)
    Oji: 70# (ROM)/ 17:32 (350 SU)
    Sandy: 65# / 15:15 (450SU)

    630 Class:
    Borden: 115# / 12:56 Rx
    Jeremy: 105 (4reps) / 17:30 (115DU)
    Will from CA: 135 / 11:46 (559 SU)
    Kate C: 105 / 11:06 (125 DU)
    Tim McC: 85# / 11:07 (400SU)
    Dan M: 95# / 16:10 (150DU)

    Some truly ass-kicking moments tonight in the hot, hot evening classes. People worked super hard to maintain their lumbar and keep the bar path in the classic bagel cutter position. and those pullups at the end looked tough after those thrusters, but you all gutted it out. Nicely done.
