Interesting how a blog post in the New York Times about why women can’t do pull-ups stirred up so much noise in the Crossfit world. I actually started CF in a box run by a female gymnast, so even the premise seems silly and all the science quoted in the blog just encourages women to not even try. My 9-year old daughter is getting close to her full pull-up just like tens of thousands of gymnasts, crossfitters and other female athletes already did. Let’s not give them science on why they are wrong.
On this rest day I was doing some stretching and mobility, hoping the Times won’t tell me that men are inherently inflexible and should not even try this.
