absolutely there's nothing wrong with it. I think somewhere there was a mis-communication as most of us were saying a lot of those guys results were from additional strength training along with whatever they are doing from a crossfit point of view. I would even venture to say that your workout of the day and conditioning can be used interchangeably, no? Most serious strength routines advocate some sort of conditioning, whether its prowler work, hill sprints, metcons, high rep oly lifts or whatever floats your boat- conditioning is conditioning.
Shit I've been on 5/3/1 for a long time, and jim w always preaches to not ignore conditioning. (even though I do lol)
