Is CrossFit Here to Stay?

I don't think you will see it taking over any more then it already has because it is not new, it has been around and popular for almost a decade now. I think it will end up kind of like jazzercise, for a while jazzercise gyms were everywhere, now there are just a few. Right now crossfit gyms are everywhere and with time there will more then likely just be a few. Same with the crossfit competitions, remember back in the 80s when they had aerobics competitions and it was all the rage? lol, I think I might have just dated myself :)

Nothing is here to stay.

What are you trying to tell us, Lassie?

Really???? What is the purpose of your random questions?

Who do your work for? What are you looking for?

Try Google!! Ever heard of that!!!! Gees

I heard that rock and roll is here to stay... mmph, crossfit? Not so much.

A few years ago, my husband came home telling me about how crazy his boss was over cross fit. I don't know much about if, but of course it's a fad for crazy workout folks.

once people realize that it is not a good way to treat your body it will go away. maybe not completely but it will not be as popular as it is now.
dh's co-worker is a co-owner of a crossfit gym here and from what i can tell anyone doing crossfit now will be in pain in 15 years. maybe this location is just crazier than the rest but sheesh, i wouldn't even try that stuff.

It's been growing in popularity for quite some time. While potentially a fad it's hard to argue with is longevity and what appear to be loyal followers.

There is a lot of debate about how safe it is, but with any form exercise your looking at a risk/reward relationship.

Only time will tell but I think if it's helping people who previously may not have worked out get healthy - that's only a good thing.
