i don't get all the hate for crossfit. compound movements. hard work. yes high reps but sloppy form? sloppy form is up to the lifter and his trainer not the program.
as much as I have complained in the past about people at my gym sitting on an exercise bike pedaling at 2 miles per hour while reading a newspaper I will not hate on a group of people working their ass off to try and better themselves.
the people who hate on it I find are the people who are not happy with their own progress with their own program. These are also the same guys that probably have an arm day and have no arms.
I am a powerlifter (one that actually competes) and I have no hate for crossfit. if all the haters on the board think that crossfit is not up to your standards go to the crossfit games. dominate. then report back to me.
But Crossfit "certifies" all those trainers and boxes as they are called, if you allow your brand to used like that for the sake of a few extra sheckles in your pocket than you deserve all the hate you get. It's not like corporate doesn't know about it. Videos showing bad rack postion, sloppy form, etc... are all over the main website. Some of the trainers even joke about it.
As for the Crossfit games? Why? I don't care for their hobby. I'd rather compete in an actual sport, than run around being half-assed at many things like most crossfitters.
