Re: 2017 Games thread
I was hoping that it's a sprint triathlon. Sprint 400m, Swim 100M, Sprint 200M, with the first 400 it's own separate score. Just a pure 5 minutes or so in the pain cave, it would be fun to watch as...

Re: can you comment on my squats
My only beef is that it's a bit knee initiated. The hips need to initiate first by going back and getting tension in the hamstrings, but that's really nit picking because it's barely knee initiated....

Re: cfne or invictus??
If you have training partners to push you and will do the program with you, I think Bergerons is best. It's more classic Crossfit than Invictus' is, a bit more easily manipulated to address...

Re: Mobility - How much time do you spend on it.
On a daily basis about 20-30 Minutes. Warm up is usually bar stuff, activation stuff, a few hip and shoulder openers. Row and stretch post work out Evenings usually include some rolling, smashing,...

Re: Squatting
Probably missing a little bit of flexibility through the ankles (most people are), but I don't think that's the biggest issue. I'd work on hip openers and the initiation sequence first and for most....
