Today I am in Atlanta for the Crossfit Foobtall Cert. Got to hear some great stuff from Ben and Raph (no they are not ninja turtles). Why crossfit football lecture was good. Ben reminds me of me. Kind of all over the place and goes on a lot of tangents. Learned some pretty solid rationale for squatting with the toes and knees pointed straigh ahead. Tried to keep that focus when we did 3RM back squats and wouldn't you know it I PRd. Dang it. maybe this lifting heavy stuff actually works. next we did deads and i might have pulled my back a little during the WOD (same spot I am seeing Karen for). Learned some great warm-up stuff (dead bugs and spiderman complexes are awesome). The programming lecture was great from Ben and really cleared up a lot for me. Oh by the way Raph Ruiz is a brilliant trainer and a great exericse science mind. He could be solely responsible for me changing 6 year old dogma/fitness paradigms of my own. EVERYTHING has a purpose. From a S and C standpoint, it what you are doing does not translate to on field performance then is it really worth doing. I really can't wait until tomorrow. I will give a more formal write up when i have my notes by my side. It is pretty cool talking shop with new folks though. Man i really love this.
