CrossFit San Diego Saturdays

Looks well gay

thats a cool gym, but everyone is using bunny poundages. just an observation.

It's good to see the competitive spirit and sportsmanship with folks working out together, but there isn't much new here. I did these types of workouts in wrestling in JHS and HS, and similar in Boot Camp and the police academies.

I think most americans would be in better shape if they stopped eating so freaking much, and started doing squats, bench, deads and overhead presses, along the lines of powerlifting.

@ScottMacFie brilliant! Did you crack that mystery all on your own, or did you get help. Cmon, be honest.

[jdf1972]

There's a lot of things that I like about this. Front squats that go into shoulder push presses are good for getting stronger. Rope climbing is fun. Hang cleans are cool. Dead lifts are very cool. Jumping rope is cool. Chin-ups are great. Running is obviously very good for your heart. What I don't like is that the people in the video seem to be TOO concerned about the how fast they do it, and as a result the movements are performed very sloppy.

i agree with bale. why pay $1K to get certified in doing something you can get for free? and it only takes one weekend? wtf? you are obviously paying for the name and name only. slap "crossfit" on your gym and your sloppy average joe will flock because crossfit is the cool, trendy thing to do now. some of the workouts are rough, but those style workouts i was doing in high school during wrestling practice. sprint-push ups-sprint-burpees-sprint-sit ups-sprint-wall sit-sprint...for 30 minutes.

What do you think would happen to the special forces units and mma fighters etc. if crossfit ceased to exist? They wouldn't even blink. They would continue to excel with or without crossfit just like they always have. They weren't at some unclimbable wall and needed crossfit to help them over. What would 99% of the real crossfit community (sorry not everyone can be special forces) do without it? Look for another quick fix or hopefully for once be fucking motivated on their own.

[rockad1054]

special forces guys are fatsos. i would have used rangers or pj's or something instead as a reference.

[balefulozma]

Drag it up a different way anyways you missed the point. If you stuck with the shit they taught you in high school p.e. (for free) you wouldn't be looking for programs like crossfit. You wouldn't be looking for a quick fix. You would still be in shape. I dislike how they constantly latch on to the military community (they just lost a $500,000 lawsuit by the way) and special forces units to using them as sales pitches. Do you honestly think the seals were unfit before crossfit came along?

[balefulozma]

climbing a tree with a sandbag tied to your ass for 20 min a day 5 days a week will make you stronger. Stop on by and I'll certify you.

[mcdeals87]

To a certain degree, until your body figures out you do it everyday and you plateau!

[balefulozma]

that's why you can get certified as a personal trainer in one fucking weekend. All the exercises you call crossfit were there before crossfit they just changed the pace up and slapped a marketing label on it. Guess what the good ol american consumer did they bought it like they always do. Do you think michael phelps eating mcdonalds helps him win gold medals? If you get off your ass and do something you'll get results. People who work out consistently will be in good shape.

[ryanjm]

bale is smoking crack. These guys are in incredible shape, and you do not need to have every joint perfectly aligned in order to get a good workout and be safe. A lot of these people are obviously not noob trainees who need their hands held to make sure they don't throw out their back because they're 50lbs overweight. Sweet video.

[balefulozma]

Are you kidding me...that does NOT exemplify what fitness truly is and I hate that you think it does. Crossfit has potential to exemplify true fitness and wastes it on not following through properly in order to do so. Until they do they will remain a negative thing to me and a joke.

[balefulozma]

I feel it's important to reiterate....

You guys are a bunch of retards. You make fitness look like a big fucking joke...I really enjoyed laughing at this video..thanks!!!

[2002s4]

What's to laugh at? I don't get it. To me, it looks like a bunch of firebreathers who exemplify what "Fitness" truly is.

[2002s4]

Sorry....dope. Your logic makes no sense. In fact, I am now dumber for having read your response.

[balefulozma]

Hey, okay, I was a little worked up when I watched this video...was a little rude I admit. But I wish Crossfit would step it up and make it an elite fitness program (like they claim). It promotes injury right now. There needs to be a screening process so that not just ANY body can do it or be certified. I have researched Crossfit and just wish that people

[balefulozma]

would not be so ignorant and realize that these videos have HORRIBLE form and are extremely bad for you unless you know what you are doing ... REALLY. Which in most these vids they do not.

[balefulozma]

looks fucking retarded

[richsuite]

be prepared...they claim it smells like a combination of ass and feet mixed with rubber tires...once the 95,000 mile warranty expired...
