Most Crossfit gym owners and instructors don't have any real education or accredited training experience and aren't qualified to teach anybody how to run on a treadmill let alone perform a incredibly technical lift like the Clean and Jerk.
I'm sure there are some Crossfit gyms and athletes who know what they are doing, but for the most part they are basically the hipsters of the weight lifting community. Annoying, arrogant douches.
There are smarter and safer ways to get in shape. Doing Crossfit is sure way to get seriously injured.
You are better off doing a program like Madcow 5x5, Wendler 5/3/1, Bill Starr 5x5, WS4SB and then just incorporate conditioning on your off days.Last edited by TheNegation; 02-26-2013, 08:20 PM.
