Ugh, cross fitters! The best thing I like about these people is that they think they're better than the gym, even though that couldn't be further from the truth it means they're not in my fucking way. Bit of a rant there haha
Yeah I say get her a little fired up and get her to prove herself... As far as I'm aware crossfit doesn't do much for the chest but a lot of shoulder work is in the routines.
Don't know about kipping but I know for a fact many get injured from performing Oly lifts for high reps.
I'll throw my two cents in.my wife is accredited crossfit trainer.my issue and I tell my wife this if you want long jerperdy crossfit will destroy your body.reason is quite simple I see the injurys my wife has had over the 3 years she has been doing it.rotor cuff injury stress fracture in the foot torn ham and quad joint inflamation list goes on.the problem I have is that you have to do as many reps in x amount of time hense when the fatigue kicks in you loss form and the the injurys occur.some of the exercise they do a simply dangerous.ask the my physio how his business has boomed due to crossfit.i look at it like this you train to look and feel good and you want to do it as long as you can but crossfit which does have its benefits does grind the body down.like I say to my wife enjoy it while you can.
Crossfit seems ok for general conditioning, but I wouldn't want to rely on it for bodybuilding. And those crossfit people do seem rather snobbish about their regimen.
