That's like taking someone trained in running and tossing their ass in the ocean and expecting them to be Michael Phelps. You've kinda missed the original point, which was that if his only goal is getting his lifts up (numbers wise) he should focus on lifting in general instead of crossfit.

That's like saying his ONE goal is to make an omelette. But instead of just buying eggs and cooking them, he bought a baby chick, and is growing it until it lays some eggs, then he'll cook an omelette.

I mean why use correct form and legitimate weights, when you can do kipping pull-ups and use massive plates that weigh 2.5 lbs? That's just silly obviously.

Lol, my lifts have only increased since starting crossfit every one of em. Your last sentence is like a slogan. Not all gyms are bad form, there are shitty coaches and great coaches.
If you have bad form in my gym your dropped in weight to no weight.

How many Pull ups can you do? can bet any of the people who can do shit load of kipping pullups can beat you in strict pull ups anyday. Can do 14-15 strict np just sayin
