Yes, really. It’s been going for a long time. The games workouts are batty.

I picked CrossFit back up again in the last year or so. I did it for 3ish years back in 2012, and went way, way harder than I do now. Back then, there was an injury culture: everyone gets hurt at some point haha, you did something dumb etc. That’s a terrible attitude for anything. I quit because I finished my M.Sc. and went back to work which ate all my time (225-300 hrs a month), and because I was getting too beat up from the gym.

Now, I am at a gym where the average age is probably 45. We all gotta work tomorrow and here just here so we don’t get fat(ter). It’s a good group.

I like CrossFit because it’s something different every day, and I have no motivation or discipline to work out on my own. Signing up for a class holds me accountable and gets me doing something. I also like the Olympic lifting side of things.
