What do you guys have against crossfit?

High injury rate, while there are safer alternatives, Kipping pull-ups are bad for your elbows and shoulders. Argues for lots of energy over correct form and control, which leads to the high injury rate. Also many of its top competitors competed in diffferent sports

This has been my observation. The people I know that have done it made pretty good gains, but wound up with some sort of life-altering injury and basically can't do it anymore. Hard pass.

Nothing. Crossfit is great, since it promotes var amongst women. We need more varfus in our society. That's the only reason it's great though.

Jow Forums is full of unathletic fat fucks with no stamina who can only do 5x3 of any given exercise (usually squats or deadlifts). They don't actually like expending energy which is part of the reason for the aforementioned fat-fuckery.

I used to agree until I heard them talk. That froggy voice is a huge turn off

You can just see how his shoulder joints are slowly degenerating.

Var?

They corrupted oly lifts and turn them into this high rep competition style exercise that leads to high risk of injury and is just retarded in general. Plus kipping is stupid. I wholly support the concept but people just don’t do it right imo. But what do I know, I am a simple user.

ITS A FUCKING CLASS. HOWS THAT ZUMBA GOING BRO? WHAT JAZZERCISE? HOW THE FUCK IS THAT TREATING YOU THESE DAYS?
Not even fucking kidding the captcha was how many shortbuses are in said pictures. Crossfags btfo

Fatty here
Did CrossFit for about a year. Lost about 80 pounds doing stupid meme shit.

Now that I'm down to the 40 pounds left to lose mark I'm at a normie gym pushing more cardio and getting better lifts in. If you are a fat retard who needs to shred quick check it out. Otherwise gym is just fine.

Video assistant ref. Was all the rage this past world cup

Fuck off back to your cross fit gyms Facebook circle jerk lanklet faggot

What the hell is this 'kipping pullup' nonsense? If you want to be able to do pull ups, start with negatives and work your way up with assisted pull ups.

There's nothing wrong with crossfit. The only people who hate on crossfit are DYEL retards and cardiolets. Crossfit carries over not only to aesthetics/strength, but also to every sport.

Pic related, and many other athletes/weightlifters endorse crossfit.

Nothing wrong with exercising while pregnant you fatty

> a faggot and many other faggots endorse faggotry
Well, ok.

It's gay lol

post body, you DYEL LMAO

They endorse it because they're paid for it you retard. The only time klokov does crossfit is when they pay him for doing it on camera so they can pretend that's how you will look after doing crosshit.

Klokov does not strictly do Crossfit. He got meme'd into it too, just like everybody here should not.

He is an Oly lifter.

The chicks they produce look like fridges. I like curves.

Wes Kitts is not a crossfitter

Chest to bar =\= pullups

It’s purely a cardio exercise, it’s not about building muscle. CrossFit does prescribe strict pullups with no momentum on some workouts.

>full of unathletic fat fucks
>doesn't post body

bold claims require one to post body. either you're new and act like you know Jow Forums, or you're truly just retarded

I can hear them rotating internally.

Crossfit can be useful in addition to weifhtlifting for sports like rugby or american football, but its retarded as a stand alone sport.

It's really fucking expensive and seems to be filled with apirational 30-somethings facing a quarter life crisis

This guy doesn't even look bad all he would have to do is cut, also appears to be barrel chested from the start.

>Starting strength
You understand that's the name of the program right? It does what it says, now if it was called Starting aesthetic you'd have a point.

What the fuck is crossfit? Why do I always read from anons that it's expensive?

>30-somethings facing a quarter life crisis

I didn't know people lived to 120.

I agree with you user but no one wants to look like that.

Highly technical lifts + lifting to failure + poor coaching + untrained/unskilled participant's = crossfit.

Fitness to the masses is fantastic, but not at the cost of the above.

You should always lift to some kind of failure. People who say never lift to failure don't understand that there's 3 different kinda of failure.

Form
Tolerance
Tempo

Form is where you can't hold form anymore.

Tolerance is when you do endurance training and feel the burn.

Tempo is where you are supposed to maintain a number of reps per time interval.

the philosophy behind it is good, the execution and the culture are cancer

It's for retards who can't do things without social reinforcement
iphones - can't have a phone without it being expensive and trendy
crossfit - can't get in shape if it's not expensive and trendy
vacation destinations - expensive and trendy

herd mentality at its worst

Because at least half of the exercises associated with crossfit are either dangerous or ineffective. It's a lot of quantity with little quality but they get people really hyped up and feeling part of a group. Their business model is very similar to a megachurch.

It is generally shite!
