This is about all you're gonna get...
Overpriced, under trained trainers, injury prone, reps before form, quantity before quality, cheaper space rental + cheaper equipment=more monthly cost? Cult. Cult. Cult. If I'm seen doing a burpee in the gym I instantly get questions about crossfit. When I go bench or squat, I'm instantly asked questions about cross fit, and why am I only doing 3-6 reps with 405 and not 20 reps with 225. I dropped weight for a national meet in 2013 and had a guy approach me saying he wanted to put me in an article he was writing on how crossfit helped me lose weight when in fact, I never touched crossift. Keto and fasted cardio did that for me, never crossfit.
Crossfit is great, it's awesome if done responsibly and correctly. The issue is all the bro's out there spreading bro science to their bro's and thinking that it's crossfit or death. Honestly, no one gives a **** that you can do 10 horribly out of form pull ups. We only care that when you snap your **** up, don't do it in the squat rack. I'm an old school type powerlifter who never got bitten by that crossfit disease, thankfully. It's done some great things for some people, but those people aren't the weekend warriors who decided on some idle Tuesday they're finally going to try to get in shape and joined their local "box". I've dropped sponsors because they went all crossfit and I just had no interest in doing that to myself.
