CW: If we're talking CrossFit, as we seem to be, how are you at "Double Unders", ie. skipping but with the rope doing 2 rotations on every jump? (I can't even do one, by the way, and with the weather as it is I'm not likely to get much practice anytime soon) |

I'm rubbish at them too. I haven't done any for a while, but I got up to about 5 minutes duration earlier in the year with a mixture of single foot/ double foot variations. I thought it was really good but found it hard to fit into my routine.

I can do precisely none. My go-to 'gym book' (NROL4L) is very big on the power virtues of box jumps. penguinrandomhouse.com |

useless at double unders  I think the max I got to was about 17 but I more or less gave up when my crossfit gym closed in April. I had vague plans to work on them in the summer but then I sprained an ankle so that was hardly the right time. Next thing I knew, it was winter again. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I do like a box jump though. I was quite good at these before I slipped a disc (biking) but the impact of jumping 50cm down the way repeatedly is not a good idea any more.

Maybe we should be on the crossfit thread...

Is there one? There's the Murph thread I guess if that's better...

There's a crossfit one? I bumped the box jump one earlier.

Is there an actual CrossFit thread? And should there be? The more I’m mentioning it the more I’m realising that doing CrossFit isn’t like having run a marathon (ie people don’t tell you they’re doing it.😉)
