Anyone here do CrossFit?

Not yet but it's a goal! What a kick ass program! I'm only 7 weeks post surgery and plan to go the first of the year.

I do P90X and Insanity, something I never thought could happen:-)

I looked into it but never joined because of the cost. But I've been putting together my own circuit/crossfit workouts at home and I really enjoy them. Super effective workout and you don't get bored.

I would highly recommend developing a baseline level of fitness on your own before spending money on CrossFit. I know people who are thin and in shape and it kicked their asses when they started.

www.crossfit.com posts a free workout every day. i've never done them, too intense for me at this point. Maybe once I get closer to goal and I hit more of a wall with my own more casual training.

I did Crossfit for about two years ago back around 2007. I weighed a good bit less then but literally worked my a-- off in order to weigh a good bit less. Working full time and being enrolled in not one but two graduate programs at the same time took all my time and energy so I gave it up and wound up putting my weight back on . It's definitely hard but very satisfying. I miss it and the people there. No way could or would try it now. Hoping to get back there in a few months post surgery. I made the original post b/c I was wondering how sleeved Crossfitters deal with/ perform the intense CF workouts while consuming so few calories. Perhaps, overload on Protein?

I would think you need extra carbs before the workout, and a nice Protein laden meal right after.
