I'd like to work out at a Crossfit gym, but for the money you pay for the one around here, they should work out for me and surgically graft the muscles to me.  It's like $200/mo for my local box

Theres one in GR that is very affordable, and very good. I went to Crossfit on my off days from Krav Maga and let me tell you, it is fucking brutal. I quit after the third week, i couldn't keep up.

2 hours is a little beyond what i'm willing to commute for a gym

my collarbone and neck hurt from the bar doing cleans.

[jkim]

AMRAP 8 minutes
5 cleans (45 lb)
10 box jumps (18")

either 6 1/2 or 7 1/2 rounds, so I'm going to average to 7.

Kipping pull ups are weird.

[Govtcheez]

Kipping pull ups are cheating

[jkim]

Well so is using a band.

[Govtcheez]

I don't go anywhere without my band.  I pay them to create the soundtrack of my life.
