Women's division in particular?

I was wondering that yesterday when. I saw it on tv. My guess is they are suppose to be clean and can be tested but they don't test them. There is no way most of the top girls were not running something. They were thick

exactly. Watching right now on espn. I can't stand even watching the guys but like watching the women. But man they r def on sump.

They probably do "functional" drugs as opposed to "recreational" drugs ::)
-
no. it's not
-
Yeah, not tested. Someone asked them directly a couple of years ago, and they were like "fuck that shit" in a very round about answer.
-
they're subject to random testing (piss & blood) as you can see here 0:22 in

In practice, it doesn't really happen much at all. It's more directly around contest time, so someone would just have to watch the the dosing like in bodybuilding events -

I've never really random testing.
-
Lol
You're not a Getbigger if you watched the Crossfit Games for more than 3 seconds and didn't have this thought enter your head.
-
They are all on the gas. All the competitors and 2/3 of the audience are juicing.

BTW, my gym in Cincy just took second in the team competition. Crossfit Conjugate Black.

there's some fine specimens of female flesh on display here.

That Canadian chick in 1st is fucking hot. Most of the rest look like tbombz.
-
No, they only check if you apply paleo principles.
-
They're are some impressive physiques for sure.
-
The women in particular look juiced to the gills.
-
There r more shirtless audience members than at a Charlie Daniels concert. Wuts up w that? Its not like bb r shirtless in bb show audiences. Granted its outside but my house is like 5 miles from Carson. No humidity. Just fn weird.

He is only 27 I think. Maybe there are things.

Read few places that the top croffitters don't train cross fit until a month or so before the competitions. They train traditional Oly lifts/compound movements instead . ...says a lot about cross fit
-

oh, there are things.
I assume the man fancies himself some orals.
I also assume that the drug test depicted in the above video was a fake.
I also assume he prefers an all cock diet.

The whole thing in the video reeked of a setup just for the video.
I'm sure CrossFit "HQ" ( ::)) employs drug testers and send them around the world for random testing.

Thinning a bit.

Yup, that's why it bullshit. Personally I don't care if they're on or off. If they are God knows it's not a strength drug ;D

Your jaded view on cf has mislead you.
Pound for pound the top tier cross fitters are impressively strong

They are OK in olympic lifts, I give them that. But then again, I compare them to myself and I could never translate my raw strength to oly lifts. But in squats, deads and presses they are on the level of average powerlifter in their weight class. They are all around 200kg squat, give or take 20kg. This is good for an athlete but nothing supremely impressive.
Mind you, this guy ain't no weighlifter. He competes in bobsled.

Why is it bodybuilders are always screaming that everyone uses? Could it be they need comfort in knowing they are nothing without drugs so they rationalize that anyone who is in shape is using. I have news for you. A person can get muscular from just working out without drugs. Maybe not the majority of drug using bodybuilders but there are athletes who can. This "sport" of bodybuilding is based on drug use. Get rid of the drugs and the whole subculture collapses. No Olympia, no expo, no magazines and most of the supplements will go away. No other sports don't revolve around drug use. You have cheaters but it isn't a drug centered like bodybuilding. Are there crossfitters who juice? Of course some do but there is no other sport in the world that has a drug obsession like bodybuilding.

hahahahhahahahahahhahAHA HAHAHAHHAAHHAAWDHASdhjka `er2e3e
I spitted diet soda on the screen of my Surface Pro reading this.
One question: have you ever competed in any strength sport on a national level? XD Or at least know any national level competitors in any strength sport?
I know olympic lifters, powerlifters... Compted in powerlifting. Behind the scenes all they talk about is drugs.

been in the game 40 years. Was so big n muscular pros always accused me of juicing. Mind u I looked good but not like them n certainty didn't have that "look". When I really bulked up I ranged from fat, not sloppy but not cut, and wen I watched it n did cardio I looked great but still not blindingly cut. No one is debating the fact that u can get big n muscular without drugs. N if u r srsly dedicated u can look dam impressive. So much so where people with weak minds or bb that r on all the time that started w no foundation before drugs who can't vision anyone being muscular without drugs may think u r on. But there is a vast difference between that look and the drug look which is almost always immediately recognizable for the people who have been in the game a long time. Wen I worked at gold we even played a game guess the cycle. Just by looking at people u could pretty much guess wut they were using. Although it's true u can getbig n muscular with no drugs your statement is a bit naive. Most people have limited vision not limited physical traits so they hop on juice quick. Others use it to gain the edge for comp which I can't blame them for these day esp

It may be something to do with the persecution and instant dismissal of effort associated with steroids. Before I ever touched gear people would dismiss years and years of hard work with one word uttered in jealousy and insecurity; "steroids!".
I've had people try to tell me I'm cheating... cheating who? I'm not competing against any natural people. Unless actually they mean I'm making them feel inadequate. But of course that's 'all drugs' isn't it? Never mind the fact I was hearing it before I ever took them.
Nobody bleats on and on about how he's only the level he is because of steroids in any other sport like they do bodybuilding. Maybe it's that that bodybuilders actually dislike.
Of course everyone knows some people who carry size ONLY when they are on and because of a lack of knowledge/will power etc cannot do it without. Those are the all drugs people. But the rest of us get lumped in with them.

Compared to the average powerlifter they are average, but compared to the average person they are extremely strong. Not only that, but they are strong everywhere else, where the powerlifter is weak.
To the average person, top tier Crossfitters are elite at EVERYTHING. Compared to a someone who develops a certain set of fitness, they are average for that group, which is, remarkable.

See, this is what I don't get about crossfit. With so many athletes being really even and some sightly better than the others in certain aspect it is really easy to "skew" the results by creating workouts slightly more suited for one athlete. I think they had put events where Froning would suck in the beginning on purpose to create "drama". At the very end they have thrown events in which they knew he would excel.
I think there is too much room for politics there.

Great post, but most of the crossfitters Are on roids/GH.

I noticed that too, he finished 1st in the last three events and 2nd in the one before that. In the 10 events before that his average finish was 14th. Could be coincidence and the order in theory doesn't matter that much (they're all worth the same points) but still...

Due to the structure of the competition being over 3 days, and it being aired on ESPN live the last day and a half, they have to program the later workouts for a shorter duration to fit the TV time schedule, and they have stuck to more basic crossfit programming during the last day which is where Froning is best,hence the coincidence. Usually during the first day and a half they have typically gone to workouts that have alot of variance, hence the swimming, mini Ironman stuff, Sprints,sled pushing and the half marathon stuff they have done in the past.

Yeah the stuff in the last day especially seemed like more stereotypical "CrossFit"-type workouts.
I don't actually have any major problems with CrossFit. I think it's in the crosshairs right now because it's popular, not because it's inherently flawed or dangerous. It is definitely intensive and I am a firm believer that there's nothing better you can do for your health and overall well-being than frequent intensive exercise, so if it gets someone doing that when they otherwise would not then that's great.
The whole "We are the fittest people on earth" ::) thing is really obnoxious though.

Is that the guy who also snatches three plates each side? Knoppers i think his old youtube account was named. Big backsquat too.
Regarding drug testing in crossfit. Lol is it even a sanctioned sport? Not some entertainment thing? They're all juiced to the gills.
-

Yes, part of the reason why people hate them. They think they are "enlightened" or something and that people who workout and don't do crossfit are inferior. I do Crossfit sometimes(I am CF LVL 1 cert) but my backbone will always be power lifting/free weights.

that froning fucker has a huge lump on his left delt you see it a few times in the video hes a fuckin steroid fagget!
hes a fuckin 'tb jab' fagget... perhaps!

Is also losing his hair clearly from TDHI.
