    I'm tired of not being able to do most of the Main Site workouts anymore. When I started crossfiting in 2008 I could do the majority of the main site workouts without special equipment. Of course I was constantly scaling the weight or rounds to meet and push my fitness levels, but I could pretty much follow the Main Site.
    FF >> to today and the majority of the workouts are either too brutal, or require too much specialized equipment (ropes, rowers, high rings, parallets, etc.) Also, the "advanced skills" like hspu's and muscle ups are EVERYWHERE. I can do 1 muscle up and a few hspu's . . . but workouts are consistantly coming up where you are doing 20, 30, 50+ of these motions, which is just way out of reach for me and quite frankly a little discouraging.

    Sooooo, I'm taking the mainsite workout and making my own affiliate style workout out of it. I've noticed that most affiliates will have a 3 part or 4 part workout that contains skill work, strength work, and an intense METCON/AMRAP type WOD. The WOD is usually intense, but more manageable than the main site and do-able without spending thousands or dollars or being Jason Khalipa.
