HATER

3RFT
95/65 thrusters x 15
ring dips x 15
95/65 overhead squats x 15
pull ups x 15

the above article was posted on the mainsite yesterday along with the infamous pic of the derry-errs.  have we become too sensitive in this country?  did the picture posted on crossfit.com offend you or make you laugh?  what are your opinions?  do you read something online and find it being too much or too negative?  we like to say we are 'mentally tough, physically hard, spiritually strong'...but are we really?  i see tough-guy slogans all the time:  no fear, harden the f@#! up, better than yesterday etc.  i see people with shaved heads and tattoos all over that wear MMA gear but don't even train or moonlight in the sport but never compete.  i notice guys wearing the same gear and brand name products that 'operators' wear but have never fired a gun or been fired at in combat.  but when it comes down to it, are we really tough inside?  or is it all a facade?  does CF forge mental toughness?  or do you still breakdown in tears when the going gets tough?  if something has a negative connotation that you read, see or hear, how does it affect you?  what is your reaction? chances are that if you get affected by it, then its directed at you...but just all the time.
