Re: Burpees
Does anyone have a sub for kicks to the nuts? My nuts can't handle straight kicks yet, but I'm working towards it by trying advanced parkour moves over rails with no prior experience.

Re: Conditioning programming
Outlaw CrossFit posts a conditioning workout every day. I just add it after my strength work. Great variance in it.

Re: Wendler's 5/3/1 and cutting
Nutrition is how you cut fat, not by changing how you work out. You said you've been eating to gain weight....now change it up and eat to lose weight. Lots of vegetables, some meat and fruit.

Re: Wendler 5/3/1 Final Plan + Diet Questions
Cam, get creative with cooking methods. You can't do eggs on a stovetop, but you can do them in a microwave. For a few years I'd put four eggs and four handfuls of spinach in a Pyrex bowl and...

Re: Bar Muscle-Up Help!
Mike, what helped me the most was to think about driving my knees up towards my chin. A lot of Kipling muscle-ups is in the legs. The arms will guide you, but use the legs to drive upward.

Hi Shariq,
I've been following the main site WOD for two years. About a year ago I added in some additional strength and it was a tremendous change- my fitness levels greatly improved.

Re: Hand Tears
I use the Rogue gymnastics grips in any WOD that involves more than 50+ total pull-ups. This really cut down on the problems with torn hands.

Split jerk weaker than clean and jerk...
Today I did the Split jerk 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 WOD. About three weeks ago I hit a new max on Clean and Jerk (195), so I figured today I'd shoot for 200-210 range for a new jerk max. However, I wasn't even...

If your local CrossFit box is a good one, no one will judge you and the community support you'll find to be unbelievable.
I concur with everything everyone said about diet and smoking.
