Another crossfit hacker? Wow. (The first place I saw that article linked was from crossfit.com, around the time it first came out. )
I got good results with crossfit (dropped 40 pounds, now I'm "athletic" -- I'd never have imagined I could do 20 pullups before), but I'd do it even if it was only average, because it doesn't bore me.
Running? Unpleasant and boring. Weight lifting? Boring disciplinarian bullcrap ...
Crossfit? I check the website, burst out laughing, grit my teeth, and then do something that seems almost impossible yet takes 30 minutes or less. Awesome.
It's good to hear from other CrossFiters outside the community. I spent the weekend at a level I cert and loved every minute of it. The highly intense workouts are both always interesting (and always painful) and highly results oriented.
