Hi

Looks like a nice forum, so I have signed up - although CrossFit is something I have not heard of. Do some circuit training at home, and was doing kung-fu before the credit crunch!

Slightly annoyed that someone registered with my name a few days ago, Jon!

Hi mate - welcome to FK.UK...and to CrossFit!

Out of curiosity, how did you find the forum?

Chet, found you via YouTube, one of the first of your videos I watched: http://uk.youtube.co...h?v=74sumq11bqU
I am pretty out of shape, but have a power rack in the garage, so no excuse not to do these exercises!

welcome

You are a MAN... take that Zone diet and throw it back at Sears and tell him "f*** you, I'm eating food without counting it". Embrace the 200+ pound range, bro, hug it...

Welcome Jon. Don't worry about not hearing about CrossFit, hang out here enough and you surely will

Having said that, not everyone follows the CrossFit workouts; many are just into functional training and all that term encompasses. Pull up a chair, grab a cup of whatever flaots your boat and join in a few discussions, most of us are OK and won't bite your head off
