I'm thinking about joining a local Cross-Fit type gym and was wondering if anybody has any advice or opinions on them.

    My boyfriend does CrossFit and has had excellent quick results. Warning: it's HARD - workout to the point of almost throwing up hard.

    But, he loves it and I'm seriously considering trying it too.

    Good luck!

    Yeah it is hard - I am in pretty good shape and I couldn't do the entire routine both times I tried. Warning.......be prepared to be VERY sore afterwards. It works body parts you had no idea existed. All in all, I think it is a good program for changing it up and becoming more physically fit, but (at least at the Cross Fit I tried) they are very cult-like and do nothing but encourage more and more. I think most of these people are overtraining personally.
