I'm not sure what crossfit is, but those people look like they had some shitty form.

Agreed. I understand they are exhaust training but still. When I had a trainer he would have bitch slapped me for having such poor form. "DO IT RIGHT OR DON'T DO IT AT ALL!"

But thanks for sharing... it was kinda amusing.

Who is bashing now? Hahahaha... Let me see... "I don't know what it is but they are doing it wrong" Hey that's the way they do it...don't look at me, the only time I lift anything heavy is when I take a piss or someone is paying me.

Been doing cross fit for a little while now, its more about not focusing on one specific muscle group, but rather the "whole body" while maintaini you loose much of the ng a higher than normal heart rate. The workouts from that video aren't bad, but rather than going for the gold and doing as many reps of each excersize they can, they would get a much better workout by doing the excersizes correctly.

Just a few quick observations

-pull up are great, you use your arms to lift your whole body, but by swinging your body the natural resistance your weigh adds is lost
-weights are also a great way to train, but it looks like they are placing an emphasis on weight vs actual strength. The lady in the black top is going to hurt her back and knees by lifting like that, or she could fall. A better routine would be more reps of less weight.

The whole puropse of cross fit is to improve strength and agility while maintaining cardiovascular strength. Programs like the one in the video is why it has gotten a bad name in recent years. Trainers tend to focus on maintaing movement and higher heart rate rather than correct form (limiting injuries and increasing the difficulty) and heart rate.

My regimine 2x a week:

1/4 mile run
10 pull ups
25 situps with a 25 lb weight on my chest
25 inverted pushups (feet on a chair)
repeat 7 times, by the end you really cant do the complete reps of each excersize so you do whatever you can until you reach muscle failure. The whole thing takes roughly 40 minutes.

Sometimes I'll substitue different varieties of each excersize or entire excersizes, rocky situp, wide arm pull ups, various push ups.

Today was pretty shitty weather so my routine was
5 minutes on the eliptical
and various sets on the weight machine
did it 6 times
