Yes crossfit does testing in the off season.

inb4 : Yeah but blood and urine testing with 1 days notice is easy to beat lol noobs it's an IQ test duh.

double edit: The article is written by another crossfit hater, they ignore everything written and actually shown by HQ and just write their own stories. Lightman and Deathfag might as well have written the article off the top of their head

Flattered, but I don't waste my time on useless shit.

God your posts in the MMA forum suck and your posts here suck.

U REALLY think a normal person could get like froning? Lol @ "his individual lifts aren't that impressive"

You wouldn't be surprised if other people were using stuff?? Uhhh ya a ton of those guys r probably using all sorts of PED supplements...

well his lifts are definetly in the natty range. Its his endurance that is more questionable.

in the grand scheme of things for someone that is dedicated to lifting, no they aren't. You're taking my comment out of context with the rest of that sentence to fit your point of view. You're being nothing more than arguementative. Much like you were in the MMA section.

Let me lay out some basic facts on the matter of his lifts compared to actual olympic lifters. World records in his weight category are like 150 lbs more than what he lifts (and almost 200 lbs more than what the article claims). In fact, the senior men's world record clean and jerk for the 56KG (that's a 123lb or lighter man by the way) weight class is 170kg. That's the same weight Wiki says Froning's PR is for the same lift (Which is higher than the article claims @ 325 lbs). Need I remind you that these little 123 lb men can clean and jerk the same as a 195 lb Froning and yet, they weigh a mere 63% of Froning's weight

I'm going to straight out and say you're a clown and can't comprehend what I'm saying, ever. Do you even know how to read and actually comprehend what you're taking in?

And you essentially assume everyone is on PEDs at all times in every sport with no proof. Infact the burden of proof would suggest otherwise because most athlete's test negative, even if it is possible to cheat the tests.

Moreover, did I even suggest Froning was a "normal" person? no I did not. And since we're on the topic. What constitutes "normal" anyway. A normal 195 lb, 5'9" man will be overweight and probably hasn't lifted a day in his life so clearly that kind of a man could never do what Froning has done because his dedication is to his couch, not spending countless hours over years dedicated to the gym to get stronger like Froning

And since you brought it up, in the mma section it's not my fault you can't comprehend the meaning of the word "assumption" and choose to argue simply because your assumption happened to be correct after the fact, albeit based on absolutely zero proof at the time.



that's exactly what I was getting at.

wait wot
i always thought crossfit was just a workout routine
its a sport?
t0w

I did steroids a couple times

You realize people like him are famous because they are the .01% of people right ?_? they aren't average people. They're genetic monsters. Not denying that PED's are abused in pro sports but to say that there is absolutely no possible way that Froning is natural is a bit ridiculous. I think you compare yourself to a lot of these elite athletes and say no there's no way they can look like that and do that because I can't. You have to realize some people (or probably a lot) have better genetics than you.

These people using peds does not take away from their accomplishments at all, but it is extremely naive and ssomewhat ignorant to think these top tier athletes are not using any peds, especially when their livelihood depends on it.

The thing I hate about crossfit: They remind me of a religion.

You can't talk sense into them no matter what facts you put in front of them.


If they took the snatches/c&j out of crossfit it would be much better off. Doing highly complex movements for a ridiculous amount of reps is well.... ridiculous.
