    Interval training and high intensity work outs are great, and known to work well.

    My main issue with crossfit and what I thought when I first saw it is the injury risk is so high.

    If people are doing high intensity big compound weighted movements like clean and press dead lift etc, and their form is anything less than very good, they are gonna get injured very quick.

    I see it on a lot of cross fit videos, people trying to break their personal records by getting an extra rep in a time limit, and to do so they rush their movements and sacrifice all their form. It's fucking cringe worthy to watch.

    it's not all like that and the instructor is to blame for not hammering home how important technique is. But it isn't an unusual occurrence.
