agreed

squats require a steel bar across your traps, with big gobs of iron at either end

not 'air'

My only thing with Crossfit is that they allow weekend warriors and beginners to do it when they have no business doing those types of workouts. There are videos on youtube that make me want to call an ambulance for the poor people.

Someone who hits the gym regularly, has a good solid structure and knows how to lift and move their body properly, no problem. But when you throw a kettlebell at Wally Weekend and have him suddenly do 100 reps until he dies it's just not a good thing IMO.

I couldn't agree more. I think cross fit has its place but is for sure not for everyone. When it was getting big my chiro asked me have you heard of this crossfit I was like yeah I have heard of it. He was like what do you think of it. I was like from what I have seen a lot looks like injury waiting to happen. He was like yeah it has been good for business. LOL
