What's wrong with doing crossfit? I see a lot of people on fit mocking it and I just want to be in on the joke

Crossfit has revolutionized fitness, by teaching the correct way, to do incorrect exercises.
Crossfit is like riding the bus, no mater where you wanna go, everyone's going to the same place, and you aren't the one driving.
With Crossfit, its not about exercising to a goal, because exercising IS the goal.
Crossfit is a lifestyle, it starts in the gym, and ends on your facebook.

No programming.
No real frequency, except coincidental.
No progression = no progressive overload = no gains
It is essentially anaerobic cardio.
Great for "fitness"
Terrible for teaining of any kind. Even for training to compete in crossfit, it is a horrible way to train.
But it will get you in shape.
It is exercise, not training. Essentially. Just random "workouts" of the day.
Aside from all that, the trainer certifications are piss easy to get, so there are lots of shitty coaches teaching shitty form on the olympic lifts, so there is a high amount of i jury.
Iirc something like 78% of surveyed crossfitter had injured themselves

>crossfit athletes have no programming
sure buddy
Crossfit reminds me of when i was getting smoked at the military, and it seems that this is what attracts people to it. They just want someone to yell at them while forcing them to do a huge volume of reps and excersises so they can feel like 'warriors'.
The funny thing is when i do cardio like swimming or running i do mix up pushups, sprints and stair climbing but i don't call that 'crossfit'.

Froning does, because he doesnt use crossfit or WODs to train for crossfit.
He uses good ol periodization, just like senpai rippetoe prescribes in practical programming for strength training, only with a bigger focus on strength endurance, rather than objective strength

Of course he uses crossfit for training just because you programm your workouts it does not just suddenly stop being crossfit.
