CrossFit

My major goal this year is to get back in shape and I'm looking for an enjoyable way to do it. CrossFit has piqued my interest. Spanky, you do CrossFit right? How do you like it? Anyone else tried it?

I'm working out at Crossfit Denham Springs, if you stick with it, it works. I just got my diet straight and am seeing very good results

Yeah, I've been at it for right at 6 months and I love it. Diet is key but if you can get that straight then you will see great results.

Nice, he hadn't mentioned it. Do you work out as a group or with a partner or by yourself? How many days a week?

On the diet, do they advocate anything specifically ... like low calorie / low carb / low fat?

Another proponant for crossfit here, I go to Geaux Crossfit on Jefferson at drusilla. Have lost 25 lbs in 5 months, improved my cardio greatly, and it has helped my shooting as well. I dont have my diet down, other than I gave up all artificial sweetners, soda, and deserts. They are big on whats called the Paleo diet, I like my rice and gravy too much to do that yet but I may.

BTW as I type this I am the sorest I have ever been in my life from Monday's workout, 400m lunges.

its group classes, our box averages 4-8 per class but ive had sessions where I'm the only one and up to 15ish. We have just over 50 members.

As far as diet, zone or paleo are the big ones. I do paleo.

This should give you an idea ;

I'm heading to the one in Denham springs today to check out the classes.. its a little on the expensive side for a "gym" so I want to see what its all about.. I figured it would be good to add into my normal routine after I do my normal workouts in the day..

any of y'all going to be @ the 5:30 class? or is everyone off because of "The Game(tm)"
