CF is the best. If you really want to push yourself to be better every single day then try it out. Most Boxes offer a free first week so you can get a taste of it. I'll be honest. It is not easy. You will do your first WOD and think WTH am I doing this for? Then afterward you feel great and you show up day after day. You will never get bored. You will be stronger than ever. You will learn just how far you can push yourself. he BEST I tell you.

It seems like it would be an amazing workout, though not for everyone.

I tried it once and hated it, but it more the people then the actual workouts. I would love to try it again if I can find a box where the people know what they are doing and can teacher proper form and modifications if necessary.

I think this is totally legit. I have been doing it for 3 weeks and love it, but totally agree that your choice of box is key. Mine is completely focused on form and being safe and the coaches harp on form CONSTANTLY and will stop and correct you if it starts to go. Was also lucky enough to fall in with a good group of people too. A few in amazing shape who have been doing it for a few years, a few in average shape but moving in the right direction, a few like me who are in OK shape bu tneeded a new kick, a few who haven't exercised for years and are doing CF to keep them motivated.

Everyone in the gym supports everyone else, which really helps. If your box was not like that I can see how it would be a big turnoff.

If you like the workouts you can always pull them off the web and give them a try on your own, too. But you will not push yourself as hard on your own as you will in a group. That's just human nature for most of us.

I just finished my first week and I'm totally hooked! There's no possible way to get bored with Crossfit, the people are great and the workouts, while tough, are quick and dirty. You'll think as you're working out that this sucks, it's so hard, but once it's over you'll realize it wasn't so bad and you'll find yourself strangely looking forward to the next day's workout.

Oh, and I forgot to mention, they're great about scaling excercises and modifying things for every level. You'll see beginners to long time crossfitters in the same session, all doing their different forms of the same movement. They're super aware of using good form and pay close attention to help prevent injuries.
