So is it safe to assume no one plays "hangman" in school anymore? I'm pretty sure we used to play this as a class on the chalk board...  ;D

Most likely your unit will stand down in the spring as most everyone is on course all summer. If so there won't be the usual 1 night/week etc going on until your unit stands back up in the fall.

So when a poll favours their agenda it's unshakable fact, and when it doesn't they rip it apart like you could any other poll ever conducted? Gotta love the friggen media... oh wait, no I don't.

Well like all the "anti-crossfit" guys are saying, it's not the end-all be-all of fitness, but it is good stuff and mostly common sense. All it is, is constantly varied functional movements done at high intensity. That's it! If that's what you do on your own then you're already doing it! And...

But even with CrossFit, newbies with no level of fitness will be doing basic PT stuff anyway. Pushups, pullups, air squats, running, sprinting, jumping... you don't throw them right into power snatches and handstand pushups.

Oh my God, I can't handle reading crap like that... those comments make my head hurt.

Read Garb's post. If you still feel the need to argue about why you can use it, rethink your priorities and career choice.

Put this story out there with the headline "You want an exit strategy? here it is... it just takes time"

Good ballparks for "normal" (read sedentary) people...  ;) For me 220-25 is 195... I hit that as peaks regularly, but for averages I usually maintain 170-180+. Other systems fail before I can get my average higher heh...

Absolute heart rate maximums are personal, it depends on the individual, those are good ballparks tho. Too keep it very simple, don't worry about heart rate too much... If you double your resting heart rate for 20 minutes a day, you will lose weight (with a proper diet and appropriate caloric...

Maybe in WW1... Now it's pretty much hippy/pot smoking central...

+1 Hatchet. Also, along with negatives (these should be done as slow as possible... agonizingly slow) You can do jumping pullups, flexed arm hangs, body rows (on a lower bar, think upside down pushup) If doing body rows, keep raising the bar until you're vertical. Can do these on a power rack...

The biggest complaint I hear from people when they switch to LCD/Plasma is the picture quality. It's because they have an analog signal feeding the digital monitor. Just something to keep in mind. Especially if your satellite is digital, then converts it to analog for output, then the TV...

It's surprising that the "war mongers" aren't more aggressive in getting non-supporters to put ribbons up...  ::)

It's working for me, make sure you have an up-to-date flash player for your browser. (it's a flash app thingy)

Not sure if we're up or down (haven't bothered paying attention anymore) but we're at 110.9 today in Kelowna

Well I'm new and untrained so I only got 1 pair, and the size is being taken care of, got remeasured and should hopefully have boots that fit this week.  It's all good, I'm being well taken care of here in Kelowna.  :)

Ahh that makes sense. As for my own kit I currently only have 1 pair of too big for me boots so that's no help ;) I'll slink back into the shadows  now. :)

Isn't it sort of 6 of 1 half dozen of the other? Either way makes logical sense to me. You could make a whole boot to accommodate an insert, or adjust the insert to fit the boot while maintaining the right shape for the foot requirements...  Maybe I'm RTFO but shouldn't either way work? (keeping...

Is there not a Chinese curse to the effect of "May you live in interesting times"? ;D
