You could replace "Crossfit" with any other cult or pyramid scheme and have a line which has been repeated countless times throughout history.

The only muscle that counts is the love muscle.

the lean crossfit look is far more healthy than the massive swole dudes who can hardly climb a flight of stairs without being winded.

2014 was 6 years ago, my dude. The neon sock and bumper sticker tank top fad has past.
CF HQ makes money off events, training, co-branded merch from vendors and affiliate fees. Unlike most franchises, they only charge gyms $3000/yr to license the use of their name, protect their brand, and get access to resources. No other requirements than have insurance and a coach with a certificate. Their philosophy has always been that of a rabid libertarian. "The good gyms will survive, the bad ones won't." There's nothing pyramid scheme about it. No monthly revenue % like almost all national brands.
As for the meme videos - yeah, they happen. All depends on the ownership, coaches, and culture. You see goofy shite at 24-hr fitness and Golds, too.
The biggest problem we've had other than opening right before Covid hit was the Glassman saga. To be fair, Greg Glassman probably posts here.
I am a partner in a CF gym.

Crossfit is the travel ball equivalent of exercise.

I can't really tell what a crossfit dude looks like. But, the women have this boxy look that is easily identifiable. Some pull it off, some go overboard and are too masculine looking.

Couple reasons.
I think they started to learn that shite kills people in those amounts. And secondly even though there are a shite ton of people that juice now, they don't put in the work to get that big. And finally it kinda was a fad and you not making money off of it.
But nobody gives a shite about crossfit either

I most the dudes I know can still bench 225 and don’t hang out with figs

I appreciate your style, Greg.

I think that being lean and toned is the new thing. I don't see many old school meatheads anymore that can barely fit through a door frame. Lots of skinnier, lean men and women now. That's the new sexy and sadly, Crossfit is what gets ya there.
