That is not very crossfitter of you.
I thought crossfit was a religion of love.

Focus on cleaning up your diet and normalizing your sleep as much as possible. These factors are likely more important than training. I recommend a high protein, high fat, low processed carbohydrate diet and or intermittent fasting (16 hour fast, 8 hour feed). Google Leangains for more specifics.


This diet grooves well with the below:

Within this book there is a chapter called Prehab and Occams protocol. They are minimalist approaches based on principles from Body by Science.

I would consider doing this in place of cardio. Only need to do this twice per week if using the above protocol. Pavel recommends doing it everyday, but twice per week should be the minimal effective dose

Check out Krista's blog It's mostly from a woman's point of view and geared toward women, but she's great at cutting through bullshite, and her site is well worth checking out for anybody getting in to gym stuff and resistance training.

Agreed. This, or any program where you are doing 5 or less reps per set is geared towards powerlifting/strength training.

I agree with the poster that recommended your standard 10 reps per set, 3 sets per exercise program.

..and there is someone directing the class, like a trainer, every crossfit class.

If you paid $40/month for a gym, and then hired someone to work with you ($45/hr) every day when you work out 4x per week, then your costs would be $765/month.

..at that cost, Crossfit is a bargain.
