Really apreciate the point about thoughtful programming vs copy-paste workouts. The weighted dumbbell burpee example perfectly illustrates how chasing trends without understanding the 'why' behind exercises can lead to injury. As someone who's seen the CrossFit boom and now Hyrox, it's interesting how the pattern repeats - studios prioritize marketing appeal over client safety and progression. Your advice to ask clients what they actually want rather than assuming they're bored is spot on.
