Default Re: Crossfit

I have been on a pretty heavy crossfit regimen since last year. I don't go to a local affiliate but follow some pretty good online programming. I have cycled through quite a few variations and have been doing crossfit football for the past few months. Great stuff. Most the benefits of normal crossfit but it's focus is on speed and strength. My gains are pretty noticeable. I also eat mostly paleo and would recommend it for nearly anyone. I guess we shall see what all these smokes do to my fitness!

A word of caution though... Watch your form and lift for quality over quantity. Many crossfitters, including myself, have experienced some pretty nasty injuries due to poor form and education.

This is the only thing I have against cross fit. I see too many injuries at the gym because people are trying to lift way too heavy. good form will get you better results than lifting heavy and having bad form. I've been thinking about getting into cross fit, I just don't think I have the self control to lift light enough to keep my form up.(I really like to show off)
