In my opinoin the most important thing of crossfit gym is the location. You need to have hospital near by.

I've been doing crossfit for a year now to test it out so here's my objective pros and cons

Pros: Definitely the most friendliest and cooperative workout experience. Everyone seems to try to get through it together and make a community unlike a normal gym where I'm usually on my own. The coach I had wouldn't let me do the workouts until I had form down which I thought was very responsible of him though I heard a lot of coaches don't do that so maybe it was for my specific gym (though some workouts can harm you if you don't have the proper form). The workout are down to earth tough and though I have gotten significantly stronger plus I can definitely say I'm more "fit" as in I can do more than just lift weights now.

Cons: I really don't like some of the forms they try to make you do like the kipping pull ups, I really disagree with those as they can destroy your shoulders (though they don't mind if you just do straight pull ups but it's the idea they get people to think kipping is good I don't like). Even though everyone is a super friendly community (I even refer to my class as family sometimes) there's a level of pretentiousness on who considers themselves athletic. There's no doubt the coaches or the people who play in the games are athletic but the regular gym goers are definitely not. And sometimes, I kinda get tired of people talking about how good or how bad crossfit is. And my biggest complaint is that it's NOT cheap. A crossfit membership is very expensive, so mind that.

Final thoughts in it, I really like it, but I wouldn't stray away from normal lifting just to do crossfit. I think crossfit is really good conditioning and strength building but it's definitely something to do along side your normal lifting routine. I thought it would honestly be worse than what I heard over the internet but it honestly wasn't. Biggest tip that I found that change my mind on how bad crossfit would be is they give you a choice to not do workouts you may think you might harm yourself in, which is great and they're super respectful about it. I do recommend it if you got the money to spend, if not, stick to your regular routine and add some functional lifts.

I hope this gives some people some unbiased input into crossfit as all I see in the comments are completely one-sided inputs, so I hope this serves you well if you're considering it! :)

a lot of people there have awful don't think they realize that bad form means injury and zero results.

I'm curious to see how a crossfit athlete can control eccentric movements. So far every crossfit athlete I've seen is pretty bad at that.

Everyone who hardcore lifts hates crossfit and it's so funny

I LOVE the gym!! It's about your friends you see there, the camaraderie, the work out. It's not just about exercise. There's a whole other level.
