Is crossfit a meme?
Does anyone here do it? I started four weeks ago and I'm starting to get into it.
Anyone here find it to be any good for fitness and gains or should I just do SS and avoid all the potential injuries people talk about.

Crossfit: do everything, achieve nothing.
Depends on the gym. Some are bs, some actually focus on technique.
I go to a good crossfit gym, the trainers are pro who teach and demand good technique. We do good division of weight training, bodyweight training and aerobic/anaerobic training.
Personally i like it, my training is more diverse than before and i get constant feedback on my form.
Plus tons of hot chicks.
I started doing crossfit few months ago, I really like it, it push you to the maxiumum, like I never did at the gym, the coach (at least mine) teach me to do a squat with a proper form, which is nice, but since I started, my strenght has not improved very much, I go to the gym sometime to maintain it (it has even decrease) but not by much.
working to failure is retarded. HIIT can be done with minimal equipment, and building cardiovascular endurance should be done only after you have seen a heart specialist, incase you Zyzz your life away.
The best part of crossfit is socializing with upper middle class white people, and finding very sexually aggressive young women who want to be pulverized by a bigger dude, most CF guys are tiny, pencil necked programmers in their 20s and 30s with no sex appeal or confidence.
Cross fit loves you like No one else. Cross fit will never leave you, brother :) come, give in to our will.

Lovely :/
So SS it is for me so? Would it work to do both?
No the faggots on here hate if because a few faggot gyms do really dumb shit and post it online. And the momentum pull ups are pure homo. Other than that it's all olympic lifts and powerlifts. And little other shit thrown in. It honestly looks kinda fun. At first I was brain washed by the chan. More shit I watch on YouTube on actual crossfit games and competition the more I think sumo squatting powerlifting people are the real faggots

Crossfit is fine as long as it fits your goals, you find a "box" that teaches proper form, and you're fine with paying an obscene amount for a group fitness class.
Crossfit is not the most efficient way to get stronger, build muscle, become a better weightlifter, build endurance, or get better at a sport. But if you love the workouts, are content with mediocre gains across all of those spectrums, and feel motivated to stick with it, then go for it.

If anything that just shows what a joke women's UFC is.

It is more athlete geared then pure strength. Idk.if you have every seen a college football team train or any other athletic training but the training is incredibly different. More about explosive speed and strength than pure squat strength

I played college football, the workouts we did looked absolutely nothing like crossfit. We did do speed squats and "dynamic effort" days occasionally, but the overwhelming majority of it was just lifting really heavy on the bench, squat, and clean.
