Re: Stall mats dirty or not?
+1 for the mats at Tractor Supply Co.
My mats do not seem to get me/my clothes dirty, but I'll be darned if they don't get themselves dirty. After a few weeks your almost impossibly shiny black mats...

Re: Rogue R3 Rack 24" or 30"
My bolt-together has the standard 24" configuration, and honestly I do not find space inside the rack to be an issue. I think I have smashed into the bottom of the J-cups only once, and that was...

Re: Reducing noise during deadlifts
Another possible option is to decouple your platform from the floor underneath it. I can't remember your exact layout, but it might be that the plywood of your platform makes noise against the slab...

Re: Reducing noise during deadlifts
Do you deadlift on your Olympic platform (I think I saw a platform in your garage when I met you last year)?
I know even my cheap bumper plates are far quieter than my Ivanko iron plates, though...

Re: Nano 4s $60 on Reebok site
I used the that guide and my foot length was US size 11.
I ordered a US 11.5 and after receiving it realized I should have ordered size 12
I typically wear US 11 in most shoes

Re: Nano 4s $60 on Reebok site
Well, despite reading reviews on their fit and sizing up I still ended up with a shoe that is too small. No Nano 4.0 left in my size, so I'll have to return these outright and just give up on trying...

Re: Good Sandbag?
My advice is to get the cheapest sandbag shell that will suit your needs. If you need a bag with handles on every side, then shop accordingly. If you only need handles on one side, then a duffle bag...

Re: Nano 4s $60 on Reebok site
I've been curious about the Nanos for a while, decided I'd give them a try. Ended up just under $65 with tax for me. Only 3 colors available in my size (11.5), but I don't care about color.

Re: FS: Rogue Fitness Castro Rig + More

Re: Why has this message board gone so quiet?
Having served as a global moderator and admin on several (now defunct) forums, I think it has more to do with the format than anything else. Understand when I say format, I'm not picking on the color...

Re: Ice bath/cold soak - to do, or not to do?
Not much interest in this topic I suppose...
I tend to agree with the other posters in the thread, in that I am not really a fan of cold therapy. I don't mind hopping into a 78F° swimming pool, but...

Ice bath/cold soak - to do, or not to do?

Re: What do you wear while you CrossFit?
You'll usually find me in C9 gym shorts (I buy them for $5 to $8 on clearance at Target), a t-shirt and whatever shoes are appropriate for the workout. I have Adidas Powerlift 2.0 shoes for days that...
