Curls get the Girls!

Strength


I had a great arm day with Mike. Yes, I said arm day. Every once in a while I like to throw these days in, well maybe once a year. The thing that shocks me the most is how strong I always feel on "arm day" even when I haven't done a single bicep curl or tricep extension in months. That is one of the greatest side effects of Olympic weight lifting, it increases your strength on all other levels. Back in the day when I did Body Building exercises all of the time there was zero strength increase in o-lifts, I actually became much weaker in the Olympic lifting department. If anyone out there doubts CrossFit programming or Olympic weight lifting it's because they haven't given it a try.


*No Met-Con today, family time and relaxation.
