This picture was in a recent CrossFit Journal article titled "To Game or not to Game". One of the interesting pieces of the article that I took away from it centers around all the different ways athletes can approach a workout, based on any number of factors.
Let's take today's WOD "CINDY" as a good example. 5 Pull-ups / 10 Push-ups / 15 Squats...rinse and repeat for 20 minutes and you are done...simple enough. Most of you are either smiling because you know better or are similing because you don't. Regardless the question you have to ask yourself is what is your game plan? Which movement is going to catch you first? How can you maximize your intensity but not burn it out too early.
So I ask you...what is your game plan?

You know I am a stickler about full range of motion...but this is a little ridiculous.
For those of you wondering...so what happened AFTER, here is a little more detail: "Hiromi Miyake of Japan fails to lift the weight during the women's 48kg Group A snatch weightlifting competition at the Beijing Olympic Games '08 on August 9"
What is amazing to me is the fact that she got UNDER a 82kg/180.4lbs lift, with a bodyweight of less than 105.6lbs.
