So, I have recently moved closer to my homeland - Lafayette, Louisiana to be precise. I used to belong to the Rec Center when I lived in Wyoming but recently I noticed that there is a CrossFit box not too far from
my home.
So I am looking into maybe giving it a try. Though I have been weighing out the pros and cons.
The pros I think depend a lot the group dynamic. I go to gyms and usually when I do I feel like a douche because either I feel like I am doing something with bad form. Maybe it is just a self esteem thing.
Cons are mainly what I have read off the internet. Just about CrossFit not being very healthy, in particular on joints. I'd like to be able to pick my grandkids up when I reach 64.
To compound this: local area gym membership costs $59 a month. This includes using saunas, pools, weights, and other equipment. Local box is about $100 a month.
i am not looking to compete in any games. Just want a good workout to feel good and not feel like crap like i did working IT in WY and sitting in front of computers looking at lines of code for 11 hours a day.
So thoughts. Is it worth it? Anyone have experiences good or bad?
