I was like, whats this watery substance running down my face? OH, thats what sweat is... I'm sorry but I personally feel after going to Crossfit, 24 hour fitness becomes a joke. I think its just because people really have no idea how to train and really push themselves. They need some fitness education (Crossfit style). I can honestly say I never knew sweat before Crossfit.

We did our 3 sets of 500m rows then went outside for our 50 squats and bear crawls to then do 50 pushups. We did that 3 times and guess what??? DONE!!!! So we felt funny here we are at the "gym" and we finished in about 1/2 hour. We went back inside to do our farmer's walk with Jill had 20 pound dumbells and I had the 35 pound dumbells, held over head then in the pulling the tractor, couple times around the gym......we are pooped!! People staring at us!! Probably jealous!! I want the whole world to know about what we do!!! We went to the “gym” and the same people doing the same things the same ways watching us work out.

I was so embarrassed that someone might see me there. Couldn't take it seriously in there. It just felt like a big joke. I couldn't look at it the same way, now that I knew what I knew. I left, cancelled my membership, and never looked back. It's amazing. People who claim to be fitness conscious are doing the exact same routines they've been doing for years, with nothing to show for it. Not a change in bodyfat, no real strength gains... nothing! And yet, they keep doing the exact same thing they've always done. WHY? Maybe they'll figure it out one day. In the meantime, that's one more parking spot we can claim for ourselves! Not to be selfish or anything, but isn't it kind of fun to keep it as OUR secret club??? ;) I’ve got to admit, shortly after I discovered CrossFit, I went into 24 Hour fitness for a day.
