Real life pic thread 2: Electric Boogaloo

following the first rule of crossfit

Edit: Nope, that made no sense and was not funny.

New lifting shoes! They're technically lolcrossfit, but I take that to mean they're good for lifting and I can run some in them when it gets warm.

Need to see your crossfit yoga shorts

Crossfit: Because you can't call it Calisthenics and charge people $300/month to workout in a warehouse.

lol w/ my summer travels, I often get a ridiculous amount of layover time at ORD airport... if I find something with like an 8 hour gap, we may have to arrange that

Sure is a lot of crossfit hate in here, and lol @ 300 a month.

[thetruepandagod]

its 365$/month here which sucks because it's the only place with bumper plates etc. I guess ill just keep playing with broken weights at my 25$ gym.

Spoiler: show

they match my broken back

Because most people who do it absolutely never shut up about it, which gets really irritating quickly.

How dare people be proud of working toward being fit.

the focus on reps per min is most peoples problem with it. Also kipping.

[AidenCarby]

Nothing wrong with Kipping bro.

There's nothing wrong with that, but there are other things to talk about. People will notice when you start losing weight/bulking up.

Pretty much anyone who talks about only one thing ever is bound to get tiresome.

Reps per min should never be the focus on any lift.

Bad Gyms? Only thing even remotely close to RPM's at my gym is an EMOM which is every minute on the minute. Speaking of, fuck a burpee EMOM, those are the worst.

[Pyrena]

It is expensive, and lots of gyms have branded themselves crossfit that isn't actual crossfit, never mind the potential dangers of crossfit itself (proper form, correct coaching, I know), it's too likely you'll pay out the ass for a gym that doesn't really know what they're doing. And it does get talked about in cult-like ways, like it's the only way.

It's not for me, and there are success stories from it and reasons people rave about it, but it's gotten to have a trend like status to roll eyes at.
