I only saw a couple of she-hulks on there, and none of them looked like that dude you posted. Still some are definitely bulkier than others, it just goes to show that doing a certain workout is not guaranteed to give you a certain body.

Yeah, I agree.

CrossFit girls are generally pretty hot. I've talked to a lot of guys who just don't like any kind of obvious muscle on bitches.

I don't mind some muscle, there is a line though. If it becomes bulky and manly, then it becomes gross. To me, it is all in shoulders and arms. I just don't think I could deal with a vascular muscular forearm (theoretically of course). I definitely err on the side of femininity. I would rather look at a fat girl than a bulky muscular girl. The nice thing about muscular people in general is that they can slim down pretty easily and look pretty normal.

What do you think of Jamie Eason?

She's pretty well known in the fitness community.

Was randomly perusing a CrossFit board where a guy asked a question about which personal trainer certs in addition to the CrossFit cert people would recommend and I BOLd a bit at this reply:

Blair,
I don't get it...
I've seen your posts...over 1,000...you’ve been a part of the CrossFit community for a while...why isn’t the CrossFit Cert legit enough for you?

Go coach/personal train CrossFit...quit chasing mainstream BS.

In Strength,
Jerry

Yeah that chick's arms are gross.


Jamie Eason is attractive. I saw her at Arnold's a couple years ago. She looks good but I was surprised that she is like 4'8".

Is that right? I had no idea how short she was. Love short girls.

I saw her on a show called Workout a little while back. She popped in for an episode. Seemed like a cool girl and more down to earth than I would've expected.

There seem to be people who take it too far for sure. But I just throw them into the same group along with people who think Muay Thai >>>>>>>>>> everything else or who hold other fanatical, Kool Aid induced beliefs.

I don't think everyone who does--or teaches--CF is like that though.

Well, I didn't measure, but she was noticeably short to me. Like "hey look, there is a miniature Jamie Eason." I have this reaction to people that I have seen on TV all the time though. I guess I just expect them to be bigger.

I saw Mark Coleman at the same event, and I was a lot bigger than him... I always imagined him to be like WWE sized, but he looked pretty normal sized. I have had this reaction to almost every fighter I have met.

I just looked her up. 5'2".

Yeah, TV and photos have a way of making people look bigger and more substantial than they really are. I actually just took a picture at the gym last night and I don't look as small and skinny in the pic as I really am. It's funny how it works.

I'm sure in the 80s people thought Tom Cruise was larger than life when in reality he's like 5'7".
