Crossfit question

Karabobarra

I Have been thinking about giving crossfit a try, I am not self disciplined enough to do this on my own so it will have to wait until I can afford to join a class (I do better with a little competition Anyway) but I would like to hear pro's and con's from people who have done conventional strength/cardio workouts then tried crossfit

my biggest concern is time ... and recovery time. ... lol

Crossfit is high volume the biggest thing to remember is keeping forme correct. Otis easy to get hurt trying to do high volume and sacrificing forme.

there are pros and cons to crossfit. i think that many people tend to throw themselves 100% into it, going from exercising very little, to going 6 days a week, and that is where a lot of injuries come from.

to supplement your work outs, like to go 2-3 times a week, i think crossfit is great. i know a lot of people like the class aspect of things, and the competitiveness. here is a good article about the pro's and con's of crossfit: http://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/2012/03/01/a-beginners-guide-to-crossfit/

a lot of places will offer a free class on the weekends for you to try out, so see what is out there.
