[quote=Anonymous]have the people complaining about Crossfit actually tried it?

I did it for 4 months so by no means some hardcore CF evangelist and I never got injured. On the flip side I use to run a lot and have had numerous running injuries. I also once pulled my back muscle while working one on one with a private trainer. If you do any activity you risk injury. When I did CF I was at a great gym with trainers who were huge on form and making sure you were performing moves correctly which greatly reduces the risk of injury.

OP Crossfit is wonderful and a great way to build skills, strengths and most importantly improve self esteem. My understanding is that crossfit kids does not include heavy lifting or Olympic lifting like regular crossfit.  Most of the moves are body weight. Most  gyms offer a free class to check it out and any decent program will answer any questions and concerns that you have. I definitely think it is worth checking out and talking to other parents whose children do the program.
