Insurance covering rope climbing

dimanche 13 mai 2018

If anybody is willing to refer me to some good insurance that covers rope climbing in their gym Insuranc please let me know.

I took over management for a gym, not a crossfit box....and they have k&k insurance. I am thinking of putting a rig in the parking lot to be able to have rock climbing and when I asked his insurance about this they said they cover no kind of climbing.

So we are looking for an insurance does cover this to switch over and we are also trying to find ways to protect ourselves the best way possible by having a Castro rig in the parking lot when the business is closed. We are worried about people walking by deciding to play around on it and I'm told that even with a sign and trying to make it non-usable during off hours that we can still get sued. So also any advice on that would be great. Thanks

Form Check - Back Squat

samedi 12 mai 2018

I took an extended period of time away from CF due to an injury and some other things going on, so just want to make sure my form is dialed in before getting back into it. I have super long legs compared to my torso so squatting has always been difficult for me, but I've been working on it.

Thanks - any feedback would be appreciated.

Chasing Excellence- quick question

mardi 1 mai 2018

I'm about half way through this book so far and really enjoy it. There is one question I have, though, that I have always wondered about. In the book, Bergeron mentions how Mat Fraser wasn't great at rowing, so once home from the games he bought one and rowed 3-5,000m every day. I know rowing and air dyne biking are considered eccentric-less movements so they don't necessarily interfere with recovery, but isn't it also true that doing such things in excess can have a negative effect on performance overall? Is this suggesting it's better to never have a day off? I also noticed he said Fraser would flip the pig for hours every Sunday at night time. Does a point of diminishing returns apply to anyone anymore? Certainly if I just went out to my garage gym and said I want to get better at squats so therefore I'm just going to do 1,000 reps of squats every single day, would NOT make me stronger at squats. I'm all for working very hard, training hard, and frequency in training, but I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around how this type of stuff applies to most people. If one is willing to put forth similar effort, but their bodies aren't physically capable of doing that much, what is the problem exactly?
