I'm not a cross fit fan but the truth is that most guys that bodybuild would get seriously embarrassed trying to keep up with a work out of the day in cross fit.

I see nothing wrong with trying to be super fit as your primary goal instead of injecting steroids trying to look like a cosmetic superman  image athlete.
yeah no doubt they're in shape.  I'm wondering why not do a completely different exercise other than chins or handstand push-ups if their form is going to be so bad.  But then I guess u could say that they r doing a different exercise since it is completely different than the norm.

*cultlike behavior
*inflating appearance of weight plates by using plastic weights
*really shit form for high reps on olympic lifts
*sucking at everything is their excuse for not being able to do one thing right

Ahh..i thought those plates may be fake when i saw an overweight woman or tiny girl pressing what looks like 135lbs overhead.  How much do those plates really weigh? The ones that look like 45lbs? I presume the different colors mean different weights despite the fact that they all look the same size

they have full sized plates that only weigh 5 kilo and they use a women's barbell which weight 15kg

so what looks like 135lbs is actually 25kg (55lbs)

That makes sense. Thanks. I knew something was out of whack when i saw that crossfit girls thread which looked like they were pressing some serios weight.

Shit's hard to do...I've tried a few of their WOD's as an adjunct.   Like 20 minutes of as many sets of 5 pullups, 10 push ups and 15 bodyweight squats below paralell you can do.  I thought I was going to pop a lung after 15 minutes..

Fuck these hoes.  They'd rather be in the gym than the kitchen.  Definite not wifey material.

I see these crossfiters running down the street in the afternoon near my work.  Have to admit they are all in shape.
