The Official Asian Thread Part 13!!!

[audieswu]

It's not the same Audi, I had the same mentality but I figured I would give it a shot. Workout is insane. BUT definately not worth that kind of money. 50 bucks I can see

$50 yes I can deal wit it but not that insane amount.

I would hire a contest prep coach before I drop that kind of $$$.

Supposely lots of SEALS train there as well. A lot of hardcore xfitter train there.

Edit: My bad bro. Is $175 per month for unlimited visit and is $135 per month for 3 days a week.

Shyt hire J.O.H. if you someone willing to pay that much and he'll get them cut like a diamond.

Thats one of the things I kinda don't like about Xfit. I'm not a big fan of the jack of all trades, master of none. If I decide I'm a runner, I want to train to be real good running. If i'm an olympic lifter, I want to train to be really good olympic lifter. etc.

If someone wants to do Xfit games, then they should Xfit. Though from what I read, the top guys dont' just do the xfit WODs. They actually do more training besides that, which is the smart thing to do with money on the line.

Man say that to Timberwolf. He does everything.

To me there are guys out there that are insanely strong and has crazy endurance too. And most world class Crossfitters are like that.

But to me Crossfit is still going to be a fad. They just market it well. Thanks to P90X and the movie 300.

Ah I see yeah this gym I attend is 175/month also but they got a 6 week special for 199.

Hire a contest prep coach if paying $200. You can get atleast 8 weeks of coaching even just trying to get fit, strong lots of endurance.

Thats all part of the marketing of it. Kinda like Bose speakers. Audiophiles think Bose home speakers are junk but average guy thinks they are the best speakers out there.

Bose is very strict on pricing, and keep it high cause it gives it a 'high end' implication. And then they advertise the crap out of it and say how its the best, patented technology (though it existed forever already), etc.

Xfit has its own culture where they put out the image that it is the best way to get in shape, and they are the best athletes in the world. You can just look online to see this attitude, and I've seen it first hand.

But you have to keep putting out the image that you are the best thing since sliced bread, and that 'traditional' gyms make everyone non functional and you are so much better than they are. And then you can charge a ton of money. Alot of people will pay to say they are doing the 'best' thing out there. Just look at how much people are even paying for those 'elite' pre-schools these days.

You can open your own xfit gym for the price of a 1 weekend seminar. Xfit headquarters collects fees from each affiliate so they want as many open as possible. The founder is raking in money. He's a fattie. Doesn't even workout, but is rich.

Bose Pro stuff is beast but yeah the consumer is meh. For that price I'd find other stuff for better cost. The technology has always been there.



I don't know I don't get the elite thought process you see out there from xfitters in my gym. The discouraging thing about xfitters in my gym are the ones who have no good base to begin with. They think xfitting in itself will get them beasty. To me they look regular. It's usually the ones who have workout with conventional that look like they are beast in xfit classes.


I try to tell it to my 2 co-workers that they neeed BCAA's and protein but they no listen. I just do my thing.

LOL, I was going to reply to the butthurts in that thread but it was closed! Fuarkk!

edit: In case he decide to come in here...

Why you leaving bro, brah, dude, mate, Cd's gurl??? You got some ivory squatting to do? :}




You're sir are welcome. I did enjoyed deducting your reputation points.

How about pretty much everything that you owns are came from China in a discounted prices. Yeah bro, brah, dude, mate, Cd's gurl.... I am sure you enjoying those cheap priced items like you do with ivory squatting... Fuk yeah bro, brah, dude, mate, Cd's gurl.....

LOL!

That's a point of pride for you? I think it's embarrassing that we feed into the giant human right's violation that is China just for cheaper prices on things that are WANTS, not NEEDS. I would gladly pay higher prices on everything if we could get away from using your country to make all of our stuff for cheap, but what I find sad is that you claimed that as something "good" your country is performing for the world.

Then do it phaggot! Check the labels of all the stuff you are going to buy. Start a protest to all the companies that are outsourcing...

Hey guys, thanks for unloading those red cannons in that thread. We shouldn't be killing endangered species for sure but these guys are just using it as an excuse to express their hate

I have no clue what you're talking about. I just happen to read the thread and found a few posts being too racist and I disagreed with their negative comments and have to deduct their reputation points. That is all.

Youtube need a rep system too many dam trolls in that community.

Well a lot of xfitters are triathletes. I say most in my gym are triathletes or do those obstacle runners then there are the ones who really belong to Planet Fitness there as well. Xfit won't help in long distance running except for areas that need explosive strength but not sure what long distance races need until the final sprint? For me it will help with mountain biking.

In the end it's about what your goals are really. Yeah your right and I agree.

My friend's wife was a triathlete the past 2 years too. She did the last 2 Ironmans in Madison the past couple years. But now 'retired' and according to them switched to Xfit cause its cheaper and not as grueling for her. But for cereal, they were spent a ton of money to join a training group for the Ironman. But she was training every night after work. They were telling me how big a business the Ironman really is and how sponsors really love the Ironman cause the median income of participants is one of the highest of any amateur sport. So companies make a ton of money from participants buying stuff.

$50 yes I can deal wit it but not that insane amount.


Man say that to Timberwolf. He does everything.

To me there are guys out there that are insanely strong and has crazy endurance too. And most world class Crossfitters are like that.

But to me Crossfit is still going to be a fad. They just market it well. Thanks to P90X and the movie 300.

Yeah, $50 is what I'd pay.

Timberwolf started doing more ' functional' stuff just a couple years ago I think. But he got his size and strength from traditional workouts before though. And he's a personal trainer with his own gym. I remember reading his post before where he said he was going to start switch workouts and trying to do the 'functional' fun exercises. I got no issues with any exercises anyone does in xfit or any gym. I actually do some of that stuff too. But like Timberwolf, I ain't paying $1800 a year to do it and don't tell people its the best thing since sliced bread.

I don't know I don't get the elite thought process you see out there from xfitters in my gym. The discouraging thing about xfitters in my gym are the ones who have no good base to begin with. They think xfitting in itself will get them beasty. To me they look regular. It's usually the ones who have workout with conventional that look like they are beast in xfit classes.

I think you have a good gym. I didn't know what xfit was a few years ago. And looked it up cause I heard people mention it. I saw and still see stuff online about people being elitist. I think even the xfit advertising was pushing elitism. But it's out there. I really didn't know anything about it and didn't think much about it. I didnt even know it was that popular till couple years ago.
But once a friend joined xfit last year, it was like it was scripted. He was telling me all the stuff I saw online, that people said they were getting from friend/coworkers that joined Xfit. Same stuff about how its superior cause its functional, traditional gyms make people only good for looks, traditional workouts don't work, paleo diet is the healthiest way to eat, etc.

Sounds a lot like the personal trainers at 24hrs. :}

Most personal trainers suck. Today, I was stretching and looked over at the benchpress station. The personal trainer was spotting his older client doing benchpress. He didn't even notice that his client is benchpressing with right hand pinkie on the ring, and left hand index finger on the ring. His bar was off center and trainer just kept telling him one more...one more...though his bar wasn't moving up smoothly...wonder why.

And sometimes it seems like they give every client the same generic workout. I can see maybe giving the females clients or older clients the workouts with all those crazy exercises they do. But they even have the younger male clients doing all that medicine ball stuff, cable stuff, isolation stuff, etc. I really don't think beginners should be working on isolation exercises, machines or cables at all. Need to teach them some core compound weights first. I seriously think I could train someone and have them look better than someone that one of the personal trainers works on.

Yeah the elites in that gym is scouting me also.


One thing I can say is when in a xfit session it's like having a personal trainer the whole time plus the lady's of xfit are nomnomnom. What's it cost to hire a trainer in a gym these days?

I pay 180 for my regular gym but it's on my own which I'm fine.


1800 seems high but I'm sort of looking at it like if you were a student for a martial arts school. You get a lot out of the money if your a noob. i want to say I'm not a noob but look at where I have fallen off the wagon. I get to 13-15 percent bodyfat and then I stop. It's nice to get some push from other members.

For 1800 bucks I'd go buy a elephant tusk pool cue or a custom made elephant tusk shaker bottle.
