I've been out of the gym the last 3 weeks moving my gf's furniture around and crap. I mean that's a workout in itself, but I can't wait to get under the bar again. Would really like to squat 400 in 6 months.

I like Crossfit -- but I don't really play sports. If your playing high intensity sports as is multiple times a week, Crossfit is a bit much.

While most agree "never wake up sore" might be a bit of an overshoot. I think in general this mentality works. Crossfit is good if its your sport...but I don't think its going to make you a better football player in the long run.

Meanwhile, some extra low intensity strength and cardio work is pretty typical for Crossfiters.

I think people just need to take it for what it is. I would say the majority of people that attend my gym are not trying to be at a competition level. Most are just trying to be healthier and exercising with friends. All workouts are scaled to the person, so whether you are a middle aged soccer mom or the 25 year old regional athlete, everyone creates their own intensity. I will be the first to admit, since I was on the outside looking in for years (and probably talked the most shit), you can't really speak on it unless you have done it yourself.

I personally like my alone quiet time while working out, maybe even because I've mostly worked out at home. But CrossFit reminds me of squad/platoon PT and runs early in the morning in the Army. When I joined I was 17 and never worked out, but going through the suck and feeling awesome after a workout with a bunch of people is very motivating and what a lot of people need.

Anything to make these elves healthier, I say, is awesome.

I was a 19d myself. Had a lot of fun and was very competitive at the time. I can't be bothered these days. I just like to do my thing and get out. But I too encourage any activity that's going to get someone off the couch.

I did have a really good back day today. Before I went I was facetiming my buddy, I put my hand up on the doorway pullup bar messing around and started cranking out some 1 handers. Surprised myself.

But didn't realize that this is more like... P99's 4chan or something.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.

Awesome, man. 35M pee.oh.jee here. you definitely had it more rigorous day in and out, though we always found a way to stay in shape and not look like we were only good for cleaning connexes lol. I'll get to one handers one day, keep inspiring man!

I know several people who are almost obsessed with Crossfit. They are in great shape and are always looking forward to getting back in the gym. Nothing wrong with that.

That's not me, though. The gym is my temple of solitude.

12 sets of deadlifts yesterday. Today my left knee kinda hurts. I love deadlifts but my form is far from perfect and this seems to always happen. Should I invest in a trainer and make sure I’m 100% confident in my form? I’m guessing knee pain is a sign of a serious issue with my form that could actually cause a serious injury as I go up in weight. Right now I don’t push past 305-315, and most of my sets are 10 reps of 225. Still, this shit is frustrating
