Hilarious Articles and Fight Gone Bad
I saw these two articles last week, thanks to a couple of our members, and was laughing out loud while reading them both. I thought you’d all enjoy hearing an outside perspective on CrossFit, especially ones that are so well written and funny! Warning, though, these articles do use a bit of questionable language, so if you have delicate sensibilities, you may want to skip reading them.
Anyway, I hope that if you do read them, they bring a smile to your face! Which is good, ’cause you’ll need that smile to get through “Fight Gone Bad!”
My two favorite quotes from these articles are:
“I do not recommend working out in a group, and I certainly don’t recommend working out in a group of super-fit type-A overachievers. Bad for one’s self-esteem.”
and
“Going to sleep and knowing that I had to wake up and go straight to CrossFit was the second most miserable feeling I have encountered post grad.”
