   What does “Buy In” mean?

      Buy in and Cash out are two terms that are adopted from a famous affiliate, Brand X. Brand X is the site that posts daily scaling recommendations for the mainsite WOD’s. (Mainsite–>Start Here–>BrandX Scaled Workouts)

      Basically they are just some skill work that you do before and after the WOD to improve on specific weaknesses.

      Coming directly from the source “Buy in and Cash out are the Brand X way to include skill work in the warm up and cool down.”

      My original assertions to the origin may not be 100% correct but the meaning is the same

   I’ve noticed more and more questions about fish oil lately (both in person and posted here) and I think it’s about time for some good back-up info on why we need it and how much we need. Please take a few moments to read this if you haven’t seen it before.

   11 rds + hspus + 1 pp

   Push press at 45#, hspu from the box – which was too easy, should have done something else

   24″ box, oh yeah
