I know Eddie says we are supposed to fall in love with working out, but why do these crossfit competitor guys get so cunty? I remember Joe Rogan's black belt speech talking about jiu jitsu keeping your ego healthy, why doesn't the same apply to cross fit?
These guys crack me up

Everyone I have met in crossfit has been the exact opposite of cunty at all. But I guess fighting for the number one spot in the world would create some drama. I have Judged games competitors at Crossfit events and they thanked me for not letting slide through because of who they are. All were super cool. Have you had person experiences with this people?
It's hit or miss for me, just like jiu jitsu academies.....
I've had a lot of positive experiences with cf people. I quit though. I don't want any part of rhabdo.
The Crossfit cultists are a whole different breed from the life long fitness trainee looking for a new outlet.
The worst ones are the 'Fiters who insist that their way is the only and best way, and the other training styles are not only inferior, but make you less of a person than Crossfit.
Because Crossfitters are not faced with life and death choices, countless times per workout, and because individual exercises don't teach humilty.Quote:

I've never had any issues with Crossffitters. They all seem nice enough. I just found out about the Rhabdo thing yesterday..scary, but then also, when exercising you have to recognize there are limits and everyone's are different.
I've had negative experiences too. Some people need to feel better than others. And sometimes those people get involved in cross fit. So CF doesn't make people cunty. They're already cunty. They just get more cunty because they have one more thing to brag about.Quote:

So all that bravado and exercising and posing and flexing and 100 reps and chiseled abs....it's worthless when a 140lb kid can wreck your limbs.
It forces you to either be humble or quit. Not saying there's zero cuntiness in BJJ. But I'd be willing to wager that there is less.
