Your reasons for hating/loving CrossFit

God so much elite fitness being forged.

How much is that ?

I'm thinking the thicker bumpers are 25lbs, smaller are 10. So probably ~105. At the very most it's 155lbs but I seriously doubt it.

A whole bunch of crossfit hate in here! I crossfit with some buddies of mine, a daily WOD and a strength or skill portion to work on form with oly lifts and heavy weight low rep compound movements. I don't pay hundreds of dollars a month for a membership at some xfit gym either. For every idiot doing half ass crossfit wods with shitty form, there are a hundred idiots curling every damn dumbbell in the gym or standing around the flat bench. If you guys haven't tried a crossfit wod, give it a shot, crossfit.com isn't the only resource, there are good gyms out there that put out quality workouts.

Is it time to make this thread about cats yet? Cats that work out, maybe? If it is...

 

[Poseylifts]

You are allowed to change the weights in a WOD so if deadlifting 185x21 is too hard you can do something lighter. If you do it as written then I believe the CrossFit term is doing it as rx'ed.

Personally I think doing a set of 21 deadlifts is retarded no matter what the weight is.

I did a set of 20 deadlifts once, it was pretty retarded.

Reason for loving Crossfit: Hot chicks do it.

Reason for hating Crossfit: Everything else.

Then by definition, these gyms are not doing Crossfit.
