CrossFit is popular for women who are bored of yoga/spin and want something more intense. I don’t see many guys doing it though. There’s a CrossFit near where I live and I see mostly women there.

Diet is the biggest part of losing weight even more than whatever workout you are doing keep that in mind. If your calories you eat put you in a surplus the workout doesnt matter alot. Count Macros!
Only a dumbass would downvote this. It’s easy to lose weight on eating right alone. Fact is, if you work out too hard it’s more difficult to lose fat.

I’m an old man , I’m a supervisor at a warehouse. I’ve got two different guys both early 30’s that their wives slept with the instructors. Both had kids and are now divorced Those instructors are slimy

My wife always says when I go workout, “go be with your little CrossFit hoes”
She knows how they are because she used to do CrossFit before our first baby

as much as i love to embrace my misogyny, this is really unfair to the hoes. the dudes in CF gyms can be equally shady. someone else in this thread described them as "slimy", which is the perfect word for many of them.

What part? The older you get, the less high impact most folks likely need to do. I was in a CF cult for a while, the injures, that required medical treatment, for 40s/50s were numerous.
Sounds like you were at a shitty gym and didn’t scale your workouts appropriately.

yea CF can be great, can be terrible. if you go off main site type workouts it will wreck you as you get older. being able to scale appropriately is key
there are some great templates on trainheroic that are great to follow that are goign to be better than 99% of gyms CF gyms out there
but the main people that are dogging CF are fat AF. same as everything
the part about the cheating is true to an extent but ill be honest...a hot women doesnt want to frick a fat husband. sorry they just dont. SO if you are a fat frick and they get in shape, dont be surprised if she leaves your lazy arse.
kipping and olympic lifting for gen pop is still stupid as frick though.

Obviously there are plenty non cheating couples at CrossFit. But there are also a ton of couples who join in their 30s/40s after getting kind of dumpy or overweight, and then only one of them ends up really sticking with the gym. Then you have ONE of them who ends up getting fit and attractive while the other one retreats back to the couch. Combine that with other people in the gym in the same situation along with the fact that CrossFit also has a large social aspect to it (more than a regular box gym where people tend to just put headphones on and get through their workout and then leave). I've seen it with people I know or friends of friends time and time again.
Time and time again? Come on man. We've done it on and off for 6-7 years now. The wifey more than me and we haven't heard of a single time this has happened. Obviously I know it does happen, but I find it hard to believe that you have heard of stuff happening time and time again. We don't have a social life with any of them other than a few of them over the years, but we'd certainly know if it happened. Somehow you, even though you don't do crossfit, has heard of it happening with a bunch of your friends/friends of friends. Not hating on you, just find it hard to believe.

Anyone can find a template or follow a CF program. Most people never see results because they have no external accountability, not necessarily because the program sucks. That’s the point of working out with people.

Hot take. There aren’t enough properly experienced and trained coaches available, but those that were fortunate enough to have found that growing up maintain muscle mass and coordination better well into twilight years. Organized oly weightlifting also has a lower injury rate than almost any other sport.

Why do you think single dudes like 0930 classes?

Except for overhead squats. There is no forgiveness, even for non gen pop. However, it's hard to argue with the posterior chain that housewives can build even doing fricked up cleans.
