Did you get bored because of the continuous repetition of the bro split or because you stopped seeing progress?

Now......I just do not have time for it.......my job does not allow me to be there at a scheduled time. I really need to go in the morning before work but CF doesn't have an early enough class.

So you'll quit doing a routine you enjoy that is actually meant to get a good total body workout in a short period of time just because you cant do it in a class with other people? Why dont you just continue to do crossfit workouts by yourself on your own time and start writing your own routines?

Start lifting heavy and do strongman!
However, it is difficult to find a gym with the equipment, depending on where you live.
