Guess doing a simple search is beyond you chief? No matter, if you want to do the bastardized version the Mark does good for you. At least you're not on the couch sucking back a bag of doritos everynight.

"He appears to be a cheap thief stealing others work and claiming that it is his own." That's what I expected you to say. Typical Crossfit cult garbage. It's ironic that Twight's gym is called Gym Jones, because Crossfitters are the real cult. By the way, what has he stolen? Or did crossfit invent and copyright the pushup, snatch, and every other exercise?

Actually you have it backwards. In roughly 2003 Mark heard about CrossFit and met the founders Greg and Lauren Glassman. In 04 he did a piece in Rock and Ice describing his discovery of CrossFit in 06 it suddenly became his idea and he tried to sell it to the U.S military. He appears to be a cheap thief stealing others work and claiming that it is his own. But you can believe what you want, a simple google search will tell.

yeah, me either. sounds like crossfit cultism, jealousy, and bashing their superiors.

chiefblackhawk (August 30, 2008 at 3:48 pm)

so why does Crossfit default to using things created by Twight like the 300 Challenge that came well after Crossfit?

BOFH64 (August 30, 2008 at 3:40 pm)

Actually you have that backwards chiefblackhawk. Mark got it from CrossFit and went off on his own.

all this is just a corporatized (bastardized) version of what Mark Twight teaches... with a little bit of gayness added

It's called kipping saawordup is the default pullup style of CrossFit. There's more information on it on the CrossFit websites.

whats up with all the swinging on the pull ups? id like to see quick strong pull ups with good form rather than just swing your self up
