How are you using your horsepower? Part 1


Both of these films demonstrate application of raw horsepower to sport, the point is that one is more functional than the other. So as all of you work through all these max weight WODs please note at CrossFit we are more interested in functional applications of strength not demonstrations of maximal attainable strength with a loss of functionality.

Today’s WOD

1-1-1-1-1-1-1

Deadlift

Post your loads to comments

Feel free to post which application of horsepower you think is more functional.

Ooooh, Vale is f***ing brilliant. That man is hands down one of the most intuitive, instinctual athletes alive today. He makes everything seem fun and effortless: the sign of a true athletic genius. I am a HUGE fan, As you can see he is nimble, readily adaptable and like I said, instinctual. He also must have such a sensitivity to how to setup his bike and let's not forget how he can back it way up into the corners! Obviously, I have an ENOURMOUS crush on him and you can now all make fun of me mercilessly.

We should all be such shining stars!
