How? Don't they test for roofs?

It's basically all technique not a sport

**eidolon** · 07-25-16, 12:53 AM

At what: jumping rope, or pull-up-jerks?

Also, I would put money on it that the top guys are on PEDs

What a jerkoff

Aggie, pull your pants up, son.

People are going to say no because the people who they know do crossfit are douchey and in way better shape than they are. It has nothing to do with the Olympics, just their own sensibilities.

But if you compare it to a lot of one-dimentional Olympic evens out there, it's a way better athletic contest than most. Probably not in 4 years, just to see if it really stays around, but 8 or 12, could be and would make more sense than having golf.

Yes but testing is too rigid

**BIGDAY** · 07-25-16, 06:28 AM

CrossFit...

Um... hate to break this down.... but I've never met anyone who properly knew how to lift weights who was into cross fit. Just my 2 cents.

You either know how to lift weights in the gym

Or... you know how to cross fit well.

Never both.

It's just the same thing as a chick doing yoga... that thinks she's a know it all... but doesn't know how to lift.

100% of top level crossfit people are on roid, both men and women. this sport will never be in the olympics, just like bodybuilding.

Other than the Olympic lifts (snatch, clean & jerk plus various squats, deadlifts, etc.) you might be onto something...
