I workout mornings and I didn't feel I was getting the most out it due to the lack of fuel in the body. I wasn't a hard thing to follow I was doing 16/8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teaching people how to cheat exercises for the sake of numbers. Would rather watch someone doing half reps. GL with you injury and arthritis goals.

MX Dave Donating Members 545 Member For: 13y 8m 23d Gender: Male Posted 05/12/12 11:57 PM Share Posted 05/12/12 11:57 PM I'm guessing you haven't done a WOD before?From my experience its more a fact of the workouts are so challenging and difficult you have to start cheating a bit towards the end simply to complete the workout ( kip. Or slightly shorten a push-up etc) the crossfit instructors I work with are absolute form *beep* even more than the fellas I did my cert 3 in fitness with.I can tell you personally I've never been, stronger, faster, fitter and more flexible in my life! It's a great feeling. But each to there own I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this mean I should increase weight, reps or both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I choose a weight heavy enough so I fail at around 7-8 reps for each set, I usually only increase the weight when I can do 10-12 reps comfortably... Then it's back to 8 reps with a heavier weight.. I have been told that doms doesn't mean you've had a hard workout. Maybe you could mix up what you are doing a bit, your body may be 'comfortable' in its routine? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
