Crossfit isn't bad when done well. Hell even Rippetoe is okay with it, but its usually executed horribly

What is the line? When does something go from just lifting to crossfit, is it just how fast you do it?
>>
>>37490688
For what purpose
>>
>>37490797
When it goes from individual to group setting

When you have 5-7 cackling weirdo cunts pushing you to do exercises "FAST" because you're in a gay "reps competition" rather than doing exercises CORRECTLY, you're fucking up and you're going to get injured.

I don't know why people would want to pay $150/month for a fucking crossfit gym membership anyway though. Yeah the program isn't bad if you follow it safely at your own pace while challenging yourself, but why the fuck would you want to overpay to do that shit when you can just get a snap fitness membership for $20 and have more efficient results weight lifting heavy ass shit

the point is that crossfit makes you feel like you're doing all this work... but it doesn't really have much of an effect

as in the post i was quoting, the point i was making is that you have to actually take shit seriously. fucking around, playing grab-ass, doesn't help you. it's like the logic of religion, applied to fitness

>They are still stiff as fuck and imbalances all over the place, won't listen to what I have to say
>Rolled shoulders, lordosis, kyphosis, they're doing a brosplit with no push/pull balance whatsoever, don't squat, don't deadlift...
