Why the fuck did /fit/ shit on this and tell me not to go for so long? I could have actually looked like I lifted while flirting with cute gym girls this whole time.

I don't want to socialize while working out

You don't have to have full fledged convos with people and you don't have to talk to people at all desu

>>76586098
It looks retarded. Also, the girls there don't think you're flirting with them, they think you're one of them, you flaming faggot

I mean let's be real the whole "bulking" craze took out a lot of people

>>76586169
That's dumb and you know it.

>>76586098
if you've got a good gym, good for you. Crossfit licenses gyms to use the name after a very short course, so there's huge variation in quality and safety.

>CrossFit's unofficial mascot, Uncle Rhabdo, is a cartoon depicting a muscular, exhausted clown connected to a dialysis machine, with a kidney and a portion of his bowel lying on the floor beside him, surrounded by blood.
he also throws up.
a variety of intense exercises in large groups with minimal emphasis on correct form and amateur coaching is a recipe for injury that I expose myself to well enough playing with free weights at home

Crossfit is dumb and you know it.

>>76586098
As some one who trains calisthenics. I dislike their movements and how they prioritise volume over strict strength.
Their exercises look ugly and the way the execute them looks retarded and an easy path to injury.
The social aspect does seem cool though. Looks like a good way to meet new, like minded individuals.
But I just can't get into their methods.
>>
>>76588767
Basically this. It would be cool if there was a crossfit gym with good instruction.
>>
>>76586098
>what if exercise, but it's a weird cult?
No, thanks.
>>
>>76588780
I know there are calisthenics/movement gyms around the world. Which have the same kinda community vibe. But they seem few and far between.
Personal dream of mine is to open and own my own one.

>Why don't you try crossfit?
-It's based on the false premise that lifting weights isn't functional so you should do something else.

-If you compete in anything strenuous, seriously, it's not good for you. Maybe not literally anything, but definitely crossfit (And powerlifting and bodybuilding). You have to push your body to the limit or you're not trying very hard. If you try to find your limit, you'll find it.

>Lots of cute girls that go
I bet you have a loose definition.
