Well I am sure he had a good coach, I think he was a big name in the industry along Rich Froning and other cross-fitters. I recently was looking through articles on posture at my school and they happened to show how a human skeleton looks while doing certain exercises like walking, sitting etc. I remember one image very well however. It was someone doing a heavy snatch (there were about 4 pictures all going through the ROM). I looked at the skeletal position and was completely amazed! I had never seen someones spine so curved, especially during the start up position. They had another picture, a man with severe scoliosis and even his back wasn't that bad compared to the cross-fitters. I'm not trying to bash, just putting in my opinion. I really think that cross-fit has the potential to be an incredibly dangerous sport, especially if you take it to the top level. Just be smart about your lifting I guess... Just my thoughts. It worries me to see more people being interested in taking this up as a sport however.Originally Posted by Praetorian
