Topic	CrossFit would be amazing if it wasn't for those goddamn kipping pullups
Njolk 08/19/21 8:46:04 AM #6:	I used to coach at a gymnastics strength training gym and was a guest coach for a CrossFit's gymnastics portion a few times They actually recommended being very comfortable with strict pullups (I think it was 15 pullups) BEFORE attempting the kipping. The kipping pullups engage the core more. I was surprised they weren't just cheater pullups Seemed like people who hurt themselves were always jumping ahead in their progressions. In the end I found CrossFit to still be goofy, like these people could have a lot more strength gains in a traditional setting. They didn't get anything from doing 100 kettlebell swings and 5 minutes on the fan bike --- Suffering is expecting things to last forever <cite>Njolk posted [p:957228930] in CrossFit w...
