I don't want to hate Crossfitters
« on: May 07, 2014, 08:25:20 AM »
....but now I want to burn them in sulfuric acid...all of them.

Trying to get a decent work out when these losers are around is pathetic. I wanted to train back, we have TWO pull up stations, two guys training together take one each, put a barbell each next to it...and for the next hour, they did swinging shitty form pull ups, snatchy shitty barbell things and shitty press ups.

One guy was too weak to do shit, no lie he had 5kg on each side of the olympic, and for the pull ups he used one of those purple elastic band things to shift him up. On the good side he wore a tank top, shorts with kneee high xfit socks and power lifting adidas shoes  ::) and was growling and huffing and puffing.

Currently filled with hate >:(

I am a real asshole to those fuckers when they take up multiple work stations I just go ahead and use it and ignore them when they say hey I am using that.

We have a couple of Crossfitters at my gym.   Every time they're working out you have to be extra careful where you are walking as they're always leaving equipment scattered on the floor in a 20 foot radius from where they're working out.   various dumbbells, plates, Olympic bars, ropes, you name it.... all scattered on the floor for people to trip over.

I hate crossfit not crossfitters. It's not their fault they got brainwashed into a destructive "program". But they eventually learn and move on.....when they get out of physical therapy.

My neighbor does it out of his garage, He has a prowler and some other crap and does shit up and down the street. He was doing some interval thing one morning on a Saturday and decided to do pushups in front of our house. 8AM on a Saturday and my dogs figured it out and want nuts.....I hate crossfit.

I have a prowler as well but my backyard opens up to big shrub filled field with a culvert that's slightly wider then the prowler so I go there and don't bother anybody.

AJ this guy is sooooo gay. His wife has her own club and all the wives who don't work in the neighborhood are out there every morning. The only people in our section who don't do anything is his neighbor who's a cop and us. They invited my wife but she does cross country running and that mud run shit and occasionally trains with Jill Mills.

I get the picture that he wants people to look at him.

All cross fit gyms are franchised. They are only as good at the owner. Like anything else you have beginners and the advanced in those gyms. It's really isn't a bad program.  If you push yourself it's really hard. I do have problems with their superiority complex of this is the best way to get into shape. I have been through that with the Nautilus HIT crowd too back in the day. All those Nautilus gyms closed down now.

I have a couple of friends really into CF. One guy is basically injured about 25% of the time and he seems to just consider as part of the overall cost. His wife is a CF instructor, so he kinda doesn't have a choice. I always felt he would rather be watching football and sucking down a 12 pack instead.

or so I thought, but they're in my gym wearing their knee high sox and acting like ronnie coleman in the Unbelievable.

And there's bitches acting like squats were invented by CF in 2012.....we had a squat rack in my taekwando gym when I was 9 years old  FFS ::)

I've yet to witness this Crossfit phenomenon in my gym but from what I've heard and when I do someone is likely to receive a roundhouse kick to the face. There's enough guys in my gym making a pigs ear out of bodybuilding without them deciding to take up Crossfit as well.

Hahahahaha, this.

How to tell someone is a true crossfiter?

1. Shit form.
2. No strength.
3. Shorts, knee high socks and weightlifting shoes.

What I find funniest is that I train at the crossfit gym (even though I don't do crossfit) I am am friends with people that really do compete in Crossfit and do pretty well. Guess what:

1. Good form.
2. They barely train Crossfit, they just progress with oly lifts and practice gymnastics.
3. They don't fucking look like typical crossfiter, at all. They don't act like them, dress like them etc.

On the other we have shitloads of guys that foam roll for 3 hours straight on the floor (I am not exaggerating at all, believe me), wear expensive clothes and deadlift 30kg.

Krankenstein is a real good dude who has a solid knowledge of weight training and has paid his dues with the iron so I don't want this to reflect on him but I gotta agree with a lot of guys on this thread.

Some asshole at my gym has already knocked a couple holes in the wall cause of this non sense.

It's also hard to even make it to the water fountain to get a drink cause another guy just goes back in forth the length of the gym walking while "upper cutting" a couple 30 pound dumbbells like he's Stallone in Rocky 4 getting ready for his big fight with Drago. ::)

I'm not about to risk getting laid out by one of those Mike Tyson type blasts just for a bit of hydration.
