Thought I would finally register after being a regular visitor since feb 08 :D
I have met 2 or 3 people off of here back in 08 on Andrew stemler courses and
an oly coures ran by mark in derby. I have trained in some way for the last
24 yrs, I wouldn't say I crossfit as such but pick and choose from them and
you guys along with gym jones etc, etc circuits and strength sessions to do.
Hope to keep cherry picking sessions and tips etc off of you all :D :D
I thank whatever gods maybe for my unconquerable soul.

Hey Shaun

Hope all is well bud :)
"The idiots are self regarding consumer slaves oblivious to the paradox of their uniform individuality. They sculpt their hair to casual perfection, they wear their waistbands below their balls. They babble into hand-held twit machines about that cool e-mail of the woman being bummed by a wolf. Their cool friend made it. He's an idiot too. Welcome to the age of stupidity, hail the rise of the idiots!"

Charlie Brooker & Chris Morris.

"Don't get hung up on the stopwatch or times, or even weight lifted, think about technique, technique, technique and listening to your body. You will not perform better every session and that is set in stone. Test your self every month keep a written journal not just a forum, a place where you can keep personal notes that you can read to motivate yourself. Don't compare yourself to others when you are working out and likewise do not think that you are already fit as fcuk!!! As someone will always be in front and behind you, ultimate confidence in your abilities yes, but arrogance no, there is a fine line.
But most of all do the things you hate above the things you like or are good at, this will make you a better athlete. Save the things you like for recreational sessions. But ultimately enjoy it, even when you hate it! And finally remember the mind will always give in before the body!"

Here endeth the lesson.
