Regarding Kipping pull-ups, the better you are at strict the better you are at Kipping, it isn't regarded as dodging strict pull-ups, my coach for example is the best at the kip in our gym and he can do 30 strict in a row, when racing anything the best west To get a good time is to use the fastest most efficient movement and when the movement standards are extended arms down the bottom and chin above bar at the top and you have to do multiple sets over 10 then Kipping is the most efficient way, if they replaced Kipping with strict all the same athletes would still be at the top

Bit sexist isn't it. Imagine if all the names were Male names. The Femonazis would burn the city down!

Most top athletes train very similar style to crossfit, take out the kipping and the heavy oly lifts and its just circuit training, we had kyle noke over here last year and he ran us through a circuit they would do over at Greg Jacksons and it was practically the same shit we do at crossfit, HIIT training,

Or do you mean that crossfit is basically the same as HIIT?

This.
I have nothing against crossfit but crossfit has just thrown a random jumble of training methods from other sports and then claims other sports basically train crossfit. They don't. Crossfit just took other methods and put them together.
If you are a mma fighter train for mma. Footy player train for footy. Powerlifter train for powerlifting. If you want to get good at crossfit train crossfit.

^this is spot on and to add, that the squat, deadlift and all the many exercises available to us, wont alone make a better athlete in a given sport, it's the skills work specific to the sport that is the key, the neverending process of practice...
Actually, Crossfit (in the begining) prior to 2000 (most here still in dypers) is responsible for igniting interest in the use of basic barbell exercises, it bought a mass of people out of the mainstream gyms, off treadmills and into garage type gyms, which is fantastic.
it also sparked a resurgence of interest into powerlifting, this is good and bad.
Along the same lines, on the same interview with the UFC fighter he was asked what sets and reps should you do in the gym to get better at jiu-jitsu and he said you should do more jiu-jitsu. Simple, sort of smart arse answer but makes sense and people miss this basic stuff.
