I agreed that heavy weightlifting especially deadlift, clean, and snatch shouldn’t be done fast and for rep. It’s so hard to get the moment right and hard on the body. That’s one thing I definitely dislike about it but you have the option to go lighter and do more reps or go heavier and take your time and just focus on yourself and not competing.
So basically he’s saying (and modern science agrees with him) that if you wanna be fit, look good, and be HEALTHY then crossfit is a joke. If you wanna be an agrotard cult member of the Scientology of “Fitness” then go do crossfit. And simple common sense tells you that anyone telling you to sacrifice perfect form for “more reps” is a clown begging to get injured.
Who is more healthy? Fraser or CT?
Rhabdo isn't identical to overtraining. Overtraining is more of a chronic state, whereas Rhabdo is usually acute, and can be caused by many things, including dehydration, compression, or falls (blood flow restriction cuffs can cause rhabdo, esp. in the hands of somebody that doesn't know what they are doing).
Overtraining, on the other hand, takes months or years to develop as a syndrome. It also can result in conditions that are similar to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, such as loss of exercise capacity, lowered anaerobic threshold, as well as lowered hormones and body temperature regulation. Somebody with overtraining will feel like they have a chronic illness all the time.
