To each their own.. for those who crossfit and those who just lift.. or do circuit training, at least they're doing something and getting off their ass.
I just ordered a pair of risto olympico shoes.. in pink.. Tried out a friends and the stability is awesome. I went with pink because why the fuck not, who's going to try and snag them if I forget them. I managed to hit a 215# clean and jerk, which one year after being back in the gym from a broken back is damn good. Working on getting the snatch to bw.. I'm close. I can't do the lifts fast, it takes me an hour to get through 30 of them..but they're damn pretty. I've been concentrating so much on the oly lifts that my pull ups have suffered somehow... taking a few days off from the gym currently and getting back to basics when I get back to give my back a break, it's giving me issues currently. All in all, I feel pretty damn good about where I've made it in a year, after a year off for recovery.
PS - I do the crossfit thing and just lift.. Found a good 'gym' to do both at.
