i wish to join crossfit too but look like very challenging ya.

I did a trial for 1 month. Some Pros and Cons:

 

Pros:

- good sense of support from members

- structure is set and simple (WOD is defined by box leader, everyone do the same workout)

- level of fitness can improve gradually

 

Cons:

- bad form everywhere (jerking, pulling, risk of injury is HIGH)

- the workouts might not develop into the physical results that you are looking for

(if you want to look thick and squat, it's good. the girls are all like mini-hulks)

- some box leaders are a bit impatient and egotistical

(saw a few that were pushing some members too hard, it felt way too personal)

 

personally for me, safety is key. my body is not just aesthetic but also functional,

i like to trek, swim, gym, climb and want to be able to continue until old age.

but a lot of the older crossfitters have similar injuries,

(rotator cuff shoulder injury, overcompensated muscles, wrists inflammation).

 

And to pump each other up, there seems to be a little bit of over-supplementation as well.

 

I prefer heavy but good workouts, with good form.

Calisthenics is less destructive, and because it uses bodyweight, it also teaches body awareness.
