Some of the crossfit games stuff just looks like obstacles for the sake of it. Bit some of it's great as well. Found a few mini wods. Done one called a l mini Murphy today. 1 mile run 100 push up 200 squats then another 1 mile run. Was blowing out my arse after it 200 squats , Are you doing a proper squat ? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

THE STIFFMEISTER 16,350 Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 I squat to a tyre , tell you what a sign is of getting old , when you put off running for two days after a squat set ... ten years ago I’d have laughed at that Ankles and tendons are a bit achy these days 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What I thought was a squat and how my physio showed me how to squat are worlds apart, that's why I'm asking , a true squat your knees don't move forward they stay at 90 degrees to the floor 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MH1 1,888 Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 Think gyms will go back to normal once the lock down is lifted or will they be subject to prolonged social distancing? They're breeding grounds for illnesses at the best of times lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
