Favorite Fitness websites. There are 2 that are head and shoulders above the rest:
1) Crossfit
2) DragonDoor.com
I would have to agree with Mike.
1. Crossfit
2. DragonDoor
Boy, I just started yesterday and allready I get a rest day :)
1. Crossfit
2. Used to be Getfitnow.com but it's recently deteriorated badly so I guess I'll look for a new one. But, honestly, Crossfit really has what I was looking for.
1. I agree with Mr. Long about getfitnow. I prefer the more mature audience here.
2. T-mag has some good articles (Coach Davies, Dave Tate, and others)
3. Dave Tate's site at elitefitnesssystems.com
Does anyone have O-lifting sites to recommend, particularly with good technique descriptions?
Here are a bunch of my current favorites.
CROSSFIT.COM
EXRX.NET IS A VERY GOOD INFORMATION SITE. ALSO GO TO WEIGHT TRAINING THEN POWERLIFTING EXERCISES. IT HAS VIDEOS OF THE POWERLIFTING MOVEMENTS AND HAS SOME DIFFERENT ONES LIKE HANG SNATCH, JUMP SHRUGS, PRESS UNDER AND QUICK DROP.
Have to agree with ExRx.com.
http://www.exrx.net/index.html
It has great instructions for Olympic lifting, as well as other strength training & conditioning programs. I'm pretty sure I found that site through Crossfit, so Crossfit seems to be the site were it all to come together! Thanks Crossfit!!

Hey Gunther,
I briefly checked out the first three links you mentioned - good stuff so far. I was just curious if you have read any of Ross Enamait's (Rossboxing) books at all?
Hi Ryan,
I have all his books and they are in my personal opinion great. With the warrior workout books you even got 2 free aditional supplements. He is going to release another one and I cannot wait to start reading and using it. Ross is also a very nice guy who answers all his e-mails fast and personal.
His books are full of useful information exercises and workouts. If I look at the price and quality he stands far above most. But like said that is my personal opinion, I just like his stuff.
