Aren't you suppose to do more than one round? You said 7, but thats just 7 continuous for one round. I mean, the weight is impressive but I thought it was suppose to be 5 rounds of 7 sets

@psychogh0st I have to agree here, I prefer the low back squat myself, it's easier to support

[SuperSayanFitness]

@curtisjacob74 The Bear is a one of those exercises known as "complexes" which are meant to put the body under a full, intensive, power building exercise. If done correctly, complexes are done under medium weight conditions, so the weight isn't incredibly easy but can be done quickly. This generates the mos calorie loss and recruits the most muscle fibers.

Crossfiters also generally have terrible, injury-prone form, and aren't regarded as highly knowledgeable for making ideal routines.

Great form on everything. For my schools football/ lacrosse program, we go right from the front and back squats into the push press in one motion. But solid job

@curtisjacob74 cool story bro.

[curtisjacob74]

do u idiots know anything about crossfit.? the bear isnt meant for spped. its heavy weight and then u increase from that weight. and crossfit is the best hardcore workout for your body. almost every WOD is a full body movement workout. which is proven to be better for u then just doing squats or just doing curls. FSU CROSSFIT BROSKIES

Try heavier weights......less reps.....your form suffers from that crossfit shit....it rapes your knees and other joints..

[brandongunn77]

Hey....I gotta give you props......that is some hardcore stuff you just did ...I'm a good 170 lbs....I don't think I could handle what you did bro...that is some fat burning shit you just accomplished...

[slightseconds]
