Pointer I am a big CrossFit fan. I have been doing it for nearly four years. It is not about the amount of weight. The group environment is very motivating and competitive. That is great and not so great. The quality of coaching varies as does the willingness of men to listen. Have you noticed that women bring less ego to the workouts? They keep progressing but many men get in their own way. Those men get injured because they never get the foundation movements.
The order is ... FORM mastered first, then increase intensity ( number of movements in a given time ) and last increase load ( the amount of weight ) . Guys just about always want to load up before they have mastered the movements. CF is comprised of many very technical and difficult movements. Get those dialed in first. Best to you.
