RunningGuns Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Rant of the day.. I had a minor paper to hand in a couple weeks ago, and decided not to do it because it wasn't worth much (<2%) and I had tests to study for instead. When our professor handed them back, a group of people I sit near made a series of snide comments to the effect of, "at least we actually do our work." Shocked anyone would even notice, none the less care, I'm actually kind of annoyed now by the level condescension.. I've never met any other premeds in person before, but I'm starting to see why people hate them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexaa. Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 anyone tried crossfit before ? any opinions on it ? i'm looking for a good x-training option and it sounds like it really does good things but it is sooo expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeuroPreMed Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Crossfit has this huge thing with whether it is beneficial or harmful. With that being said, up to you whether you choose to continue with it. I have done it a couple times, and I know of my old boss who lived and swore by it. If you are in relatively good shape you should be ok, if you haven't lifted weights or ran in 10 years you may struggle a little with it, but ultimately pushing yourself is what betters yourself. As for costs it shouldn't really cost you anything unless you choose to go to a gym and get a specific trainer, or group that engages in it. I think it was men's health (not specific to you) that would post their "crossfit of the day" and you could do it, what could potentially be for free, depending on your gym situation.

torontohopeful Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 any section in particular? Oh gosh, well, sometimes I go to a frequent poster's profile and click "view all posts" and then I start looking at threads. Mostly the ones where people post their stats for advice and such. Like oh gosh, in school, I feel good about myself and feel like I'm doing well, and then I remember I don't have a shot in hell of getting into any Canadian school.

It is a bit dangerous to compare to others on the forum in particular - you can end up with a situation of relative deprivation - you feel bad in a sense because others are - or at least claiming - to be doing better. Trouble is in the end it doesn't matter how well they are doing, it matters how well you are doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
future_doc Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 In a very real sense, you are competing against yourself to be the very best whom you can be. You want to live with no regrets and do your best. You cannot do any more than that, and to do less, would be to sell yourself short. This was my philosophy and approach in undergrad, and it worked for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
