Question:

Has anyone done crossfit? I was wondering how p90x compares to crossfit. Crosffit seems to have the benefit of team motivation, but it seems that the P90x is more intense.

On the other hand, crossfit seems more like a lifestyle thing, while p90x is more a thing to do right before the summer or a trip.

shmokes:
I know nothing about Crossfit, but p90x does have a group motivation thing going on at beachbody.com (Beach Body is the parent company).  I have no idea how it compares because I've almost not used it at all, and of course I have not used Crossfit at all (or even heard of it, actually).

ChadTower:

I went through part of a strong Crossfit workout with a friend who swears by it.  Seemed to me like Crossfit would be something one could expect to handle after they've been through P90X.  Crossfit was harder and a lot more varied.

Search crossfit, it's a pretty big phenomena... some people even describe it as a very cultish type club. It's all over the USA, in Canada, and started here in Santa Cruz. I go about 4x a week + plus a long bike or run on my own. It's pretty damn expensive, but I got it brought down a bit because i'm a student. I haven't really lost all that much weight, but my clothes fit a lot better.. .it's hard to tell when you're gaining muscle as you lose fat.

My huge downfall is food. I swear I'd be much fitter if I could eat smaller portions or avoid all that junk food. I was looking at p90x for those days when I wake up too late to make crossfit (I have to go to the 6am class because my wife needs the car for work). I do bike sometimes on those days where I wake up late, but on the bike back home I have to do a crazy hill..  It's too much to do both on the same day.

CCM:
Has anyone tried the Beach Body - Insanity workout?   I hear it's umm... insane.
