I hate...CROSS FITTERS!!!! ^&@#^%$@#^%
ad
These douches are the worst. Cross fit is a damn cult following. They swear their workouts are better than everyone else's. They think guys who lift big are just a bunch of roided out muscle heads with no functional strength. Yeah, I'll show you functional strength when I punch you with a 355 max bench.
Everyone I see at my gym doing fag fit is either scrawny or fat. Their form is terrible, especially with their stupid kip up floppy pullups. Watching a fat guy kick his legs up trying to do pullups is pathetic. Then they do their pussy circuits with box jumps and push ups. I've even seen one fag lay on the floor pretending to be exhausted because his pushup and body weight squat circuit was "so intense".

I don't do Crossfit, but I've found a very interesting discussion on it all below.
http://www.crudefitness.com/training/how-crossfit-forges-elite-failure/
I personally think it's a fad and can be dangerous if not done right like the youtube
video in the above thread.
hahahaha what a bitchy thread... im guessing the ones bitching and whinging havent done real crossfit before?? everyone trains for different reasons, maybe crossfit is different in aus than the u.s or maybe u guys are confused between newb's working out and crossfit? i've been training fulltime for the last 10 years, currently sitting at 102kg at 8% and im 6ft2. i do crossfit 2 times a week, sometimes 3 if i can fit it in for the last year and i swear by it. my goal isnt to become a world class weight lifter, i do alot of bjj and fight in some national kyokushin and muay thai(modified rules) tournaments so core strength, speed and endurance are just as important as outright strength, here in aus if u do crossfit u go to a special gym that has has tractor tires, heavy ropes, rope climbing, havent done anything before that works the forearms like climbing a rope, similar to how the rock builds his forearms by doing chin ups with a towel. i was doing alot of that type of circuit training well before i started crossfit so its great going to a dedicated gym for it,
juiceinatorWe have actual crossfit gyms out here in the states. And honestly that's where they should be. Most of the schools are run by people who know what they're doing not just some guy who saw someone doing crossfit one time. That's what most of these people
Are seeing. Not real crossfit. They're seeing crossfit like thirdhand here. People watch YouTube videos of crossfit and go to gyms and try and mimic it
Crossfit can f#ck well off. I'm not doing starjumps for anybody. Though I reakon it'd be funny as hell to see some of the 300lb guys off here doing that crap
juiceinatorPoint me to these 300# monsters here..
You know what I meant yer tit.
I'm not good with prehistoric weights and measures
juiceinator<-- finds amusement at this thread and then other thread posting about metrosexuals and talking about clothes. I actually have a lot of respect for the real crossfitters. Not the ones you see doing shit with horrible form at the gym. The crossfit games were more interesting than watching some bodybuilder workout honestly and I live for bodybuilding.
Yeah, I have to agree with you one this one...the REAL CrossFit games are the shit! Those dudes and chicks are JACKED, and the workouts that they do at those comps are FOR REAL!! I used to do alot of 'circuit training' like that in my twenties. HAHAHAHA, yeah...that metrosexual thread is too much though!!! I mean, REALLY?
My wife started doing Crossfit about a year ago and has lost 50lbs so far. She is in great shape and looks sexy as hell. Crossfit motivates her to stay in shape and to work out hard. Whether it's a fad or not, I'm reaping the benefits. I'll go on record as saying I love Crossfit!
I'm sure crossfit is great for your wife, and I'm glad she's making progress.
But as a guy, you DO NOT want to walk in my gym and start doing box jumps------those barbarians will litterally throw you out of there. I'm not saying it's right, but my gym has women that would blow crossfit guys off the map in any test of strength---a serious powerlifting and bodybuilding gym.
Agreed. I've seen some dudes doing box jumps and crap like that at my gym. They look ridiculous.
As far as my wife, progess is an understatement. She's completely changed her life and lifestyle. My married buddies are jealous because their wives are fatties.
Get the lynch mob in here guys and the pitch forks......We got us a crossfit lover here boys'!!!!!!!!
I'll take a pitchfork to the eye as long as my wife's ass stays so tight I can bounce a quarter off of it.
CleyonI don't think there is anyone here who would disagree with that statement!
hahahahha
I'ts especially funny jon if you imagine me wearing a big straw hat , overalls, and big redneck racist voice!!!!
CleyonActually, I believe he is a "Crossfit lover, lover". I'm of the opinion that if it makes her core tight, and her but firm... Go for it! Also, I don't see many people complaining when the little hotties are crossfitting it up in the gym.
I agree. I picked wifey up at Crossfit one night. All I can say is "Oh my goodness."
LoL Agree. Just jokin' round. But All seriousness, I feel if you could swap out the shitty form and hurky jerky movements, and replace it with GOOD exercises in same fast pace manner she would really benifit..... A.K.A circuit training! Just keep calling it crossfit and maybe she would never know the difference lol. And honestly if i wanted to win at these crossfit games id master the shitty cheat form they do to get high reps... then train with good form and only use that bouncy cheat stuff for comp.Why pound your joints and get shitty muscle workouts in "off season" Just my two cents worth.
CleyonI agree totally, the form is the issue with CrossFit. My shoulder is jacked from too many years of poor form going for heavy weight, and just started getting better when a trainer beat into me that I needed to keep my form perfect.
I know what you mean I am in the Marine Corps too, and when I see Marines doing cross fit and lifting with horrible form and know idea what there doing im always afraid there going to hurt themselves. I hate the way cross fit is ran.
Bro if I was on some test I wouldn't have been able to control it I would've jumped right in and worked out
This is America, home of the Fad diets and Fad workouts. Those same douches tha do crossfit will be doing the next big thing. The only issue I have with crossfit is that it takes up valuable gym space and these people don't understand that it's not appropriate.
Haha what did you do to him?
They have their own area at my gym. It's mostly girls that work out in that area and let me tell you...most of them are some bad motherfuckers. Now the fat people walking half a mile an hour on the treadmill...well,at least they're against the wall and out of the way. I just hate when that motherfuckers packed...that irks me.
CleyonThe crossfit girls are the reason I tried it in the first place! All I can say is DAMN! There are a couple of figure competitors at my gym that only do crossfit, and it seems to work for them.
juiceinatorThe people at your gym "doing crossfit"'more than likely are not actually doing crossfit.
CleyonI've done crossfit for cardio, and it's actually good exercise! I do understand the hate for the people who take up space in the weight room though. Of course I like throwing around lots of weight more, but doing exercises that are weird to me always hurt me more.
I have a buddy on here, eroids, he's a contributing , cool member and he does crossfit. Like anything in life, ur gonna have ur fags that over do it and then your gonna have ur respectful good guys. Just like there are fags in cross fit there are plenty of fags that bodybuild who are complete jerks as well. It all comes down to ourselves and if we are gonna get involved with a douchebag who is gonna take time from our workout or be responsible and ignore him and continue training
Well....other side of the coin is general consensus is the lifters are roided out maniacs that look like they have airhose up their ass. We're big and stupid. As long as everyone attains their goal and don't block machines i care less. The crossfitters at my gym at least lift and move on. I get pissed at thosr college frat boys blocking every machine trying to pussy hunt. And yelling out faggot as you are actually pushes the crossfitters points of roidragers.
we have something similar..but more manly and productive..its called supersets!!
Alright Fellas,
Calm down now. I am a fellow Eroidian and I do Cross Fit. Unlike the guys at your gym, I am respectful and actually have an area called the "Arena" that looks like a football field where I do my circuits. I am not a strong man competitor, but I am not at all what you are describing as the typical Cross Fit Fag either. I do it to throw a mix in with my heavy training. Are the guys who punch the bag or do MMA bothering you too? I agree with you that they should go to a cross fit gym or come in when it isn't busy. I would say you have a problem with disrespectful people and they happen to do Cross Fit.
Jesus I can't stand those ppl. I know a guy who's barely 145 soaking wet that does p90x to get "ripped" has cancer patient abs and is the most condescending piece of shit. Little man complex to the max.. I got abs so im swole????? numb nuts struggles lifting a 45lb bar on bench FFS.. Oh and then he started.. Insanity because it's more hard core?... If they're fat and need to lose weight I still feel like lifting and cardio would be better T-T
eh, I'm a firm believer in P90x. if you lift heavy and eat BIIIIIIG (4k-4.5k a day)you can get freaking huge. I tried p90x and absolutely no weight training and my bench max went up 25lbs and lost 4% bf after 90days! crazy shit man considering your chest excercises are primarily push ups. i never put 300 up on the bench until after i finished p90x. its all in the diet and lifting heavy though. if you eat like a bird and use 20lb dumbbells your not gonna get anything out of it.
Cut the plugs of the machines and watch them scratch their heads as the try and figure out why going like the clappers and the lights haven't came on on the machine
I'm with ya!!!! They promote sloppy lifting, some of the most injury prone exercises, horrible form and just rep counting, plus worse of all take up valuable space and equipment in the gym , where some ppl truly are trying to get fit!!!! These guys are Complete losers... well at least the ones from my town!!!!!
shoxingbiceps17hahaha i agree! they run from one thing to another breathing so hard lol im like "get the fuck out of my way! im trying to get fuckin huge!" I sometimes, on purpose, try to ruin their "circuit". Once they leave a machine/bench/etc. I use it, take my time, and wait for them to say something, they never do lol punk ass douches
so their workouts suck... have any of them actually said anything condescending towards you? if you know you are better then them, then that is all you need. forget those cunts
It wouldn't be as bad if they didn't take up space, such as using a power rack just to do sloppy kip up pullups. It's like the group of 4 high school kids using the squat rack to do swinging barbell curls.
TxBigBoyLet me start by saying I hate these fuckers too. We have acouple that come in with thier laptops and plug em in in the corner and go to town. The circuits shit kills me too, ecspecially when it's one guy using 4 stations. If you wanna come in at 7am before everyone gets there have at it but don't come in at noon expecting me to not take your bench when your using 3 others as well. But with that said they pay money just like the rest of us(well i dont personally but you get the point) and I try to respect anyone who comes in the gym and gives it hell even if I don't agree with their workout/form/etc. If they are minding their business and only taking up the necessary space then I could care less what they are doing(just be ready for me to work in with you if you take forever)
