I don't know if it's been creeping. It's been there and been part of being an athlete well before some guy decided to call it "crossfit". The movements and training philosophies are not rocket science and were there well into medieval training.

What you won't see from crossfit to bodybuilding is the reps/weight/performance vs a clock. This is the single most idiotic thing crossfit brings to the table and why unless your an advanced crossfitters your pretty much doomed to hurt yourself. (I will also add there are a whole host of recently made up exercises that will never have a purpose in normal athletics and bodybuilding such as gay ass kipping).

explosive training has always been a part of both body building and powerlifting both. now with that said it isnt done while fatigued ever. doing balistic movements while fatigued is just plain retarded. dont even get me stated on some of the crazy injury producing things that go on.

as for the video it was pretty cool

Dumbest thing I ever did to my body was try to do 50 cleans with 135 midway into a back workout. My cardio was outstanding but damn if my whole body didn't hurt... And not in a good way. Think that's how my ac's started getting jacked up.

At least i know you did the cleans right. My new gym is the only place I've ever been tempted to say something about someones form, without them asking. Just out of fear they may end their own life.

i disagree. this is why a crossfit athlete will have more functional strength than a BB. Yeah i still do not understand kipping. i have been doing crossfit for strength and cardio for a while now. used to BB so i see it from both sides and love each the same. my goals are not to be as big as possible but to perform better. and i do. CF has so much more ROM drills and pushing cardio to the max is great

Maybe I misspoke. There are def ranges on both spectrums. If we are talking Professional IFBB pro I definitely agree with you. A couple of my friends can hardly run to their front door without heaving and breaking a sweat! So on that extreme your right for sure.

Mostly what I'm referring to is the training methods of CF are nothing new. Long before CF was named I was doing very similar workouts as part of the job I held. I think most LE, firefighter, military will tell you CF is nothing new also. Take a look at a SWAT school first day team relay. This is pretty much been around for 20-30 years and is day one at swat school. It includes multiple ROM, cardio and strength all in a timed skilled graded scenario. So all I'm saying is CF'ers seem to think they are Gods creation to fitness and truth is this crap has been around since the Romans and Greeks and original Olympians.

I don't have really any issue with CF my brother is a CF nut and is in the upper advanced level. I throw in some of that training routinely because I like to be as functional as possible.

You should post up more of your stuff jipped so we can all learn too! I'm always for making myself better. At 37 I care more about climbing a mountain than lifting the base rocks at the bottom if you know what I mean. I basically structure my workouts in the beginning focus on a few basic lifts of that body part with normal rest between sets and then I go balls to the wall doing tons of crap back to back.

TweetI understand 6p6. i am fairly new. started working out with our PD and fire guys. they call what i did to start CF the "on ramp" it is to get you familiar with the moves and the forms. when i am fully immersed i will post my opinions.
