My favorite thing about crossfit is looking at the stats of the top 5 guys in the "sport"

These guys are the gods of the whole thing and the most invested has done it less than 5 years

Rich froning won his first reebok world championship in his first year of crossfit...which kinda shows that the training doesn't really matter..

And none of the top 5 really follow an actual crossfit routine...so crossfit gets shown the door even more

I just dont really get the idea of wanting to be the best at exercising.


I can see people competing in BB to look the best. Obviously

I can even see fat fucking nasty powerlifters competing to be the strongest.

I cant see wanting to be the best at exercising. Most of them look like shit. except for the top5 that are pin cushions. Wearing bandanas to cover their fucked off hairlines from all the gear.

I have been working out in a similar fashion since way before it was called crossfit..but only for morning cardio and work training purposes...strength work in the pm....

But if you don't have a specific reason to train this way I wouldn't recommend it at all

this is funny because

it confirms crossfitters dont have a clue what part of the foot is supposed to take most of the load

i do think it's a fact crossfit is bringing more attention to weightlifting


however i think it's mostly the wrong type of attention
