    Seeking gossip (no but like real CrossFit gossip)

    @nadimfeg I don't get this clique thing at gyms. I see a few cliques at my gym, but I don't see any pettiness or one-up-edness type things. Everyone has been so supportive from top athletes to the newest or weaker athletes. Maybe I just don't realize it or maybe I'm just lucky

    Metcons and weight management

    @norm I would say so. I do think Cardio calories benefit more than high intensity calories though when it comes to weight loss. I've been doing 5-6 days of CrossFit a week the last 9 months. Granted I've been replacing a bit of fat with muscle and I am getting slimmer, my weight hasn't really...
