ParticipantIn the beginning of ones athletic career it’s only essential that something made him/her grab the barbell. In crossfit there are bits from many other fitness areas and I believe that with time we are going to see lots of people who started with circuit training and changed to other sports as they saw it was more their thing. Crossfit is still a very young brand so pretty much all the athletes have come from different sports but as more and more start their athletic journey with it, we will see migration to other direction.
Just look at what crossfit has done to weightlifitng; how many americans even knew such lifts as snatch and clean&jerk existed? I don’t know has it brought people more in competitions – in audience or actually to lift themselves – but at least there is a large group now who are educated that such sport even exists.
Never heard Annie Thorisdottir was training for body classes. I thought she was a pole vaulter before starting crossfit. And as for Kortney, she’s done armwrestling and other stuff too so I guess bodybuilding really wasn’t that much her thing.
ParticipantPlus i forgot about ranting on&on how crossfit is stealing future bodybuilders from keeping FBBing alive
I doubt that. Actually I think the net number might even increase. Yes some might switch from bodybuilding to crossfit, but what I guess is the biggest thing, crossfit allures much more women in to lifting weights than traditional bodybuilding, fitness or figure classe at the moment will. From there some might notice changing bodies is their thing and transfer to body training.
ParticipantI guess the female bodybuilders are just people like the rest of us. Who would have guessed.
ParticipantGotta love those crossfit girls
ParticipantThis thread is on page three and so far no mentions of the obvious. Do I need to do it?
How much can you bench???
Participantyes we had some conversation http://amaz0ns.com/forum/Female-Athletes–Muscular-Women/110738-Jelena-Abbou-Becomes-Face-of-a-Makeup-Company#110738
Participantlol. Would like to see that.
Hayley Wickenheiser played ice hockey in Finland in men team for a while, but that was in third division where the players are not that good. When the team got into a higher division Hayley got dropped out because she was too much physically inferior. How she would have done in NHL? Well she very likely wouldn’t been able to finish her first shift.
Also the Finnish women ice hockey team played and exhibition match against 15 year old boys — and lost.
and to add to that they had one player more throughout the game. And the boys weren’t allowed to body check.ParticipantOu yes. Definitively. You look amazing.
Do you have any upcoming competitions?
Participantyes. yes I approve this
ParticipantOr actually during athletics European championships last summer, I did see a lot of amaz0ns but those were not really everyday encounters. To be honest, even the biggest girls weren’t really that big. But I guess it’s due to a perspective — everybody looks small when they are next to two meters tall men thrower athletes.
