They've opened a gym about a mile from my house and I was thinking of trying it out for the summer. I have a YMCA membership, but aside from the outdoor pool I hate going there in the summer.
If you've done Crossfit, let me know about your experience.
I have read alot about it. There is a new trainer at my gym that will do cross fit workouts. The workouts as written will kick your butt. I know a few guys that will modify them some to keep from a) passing out b) throwing up and generally be able to function the next day.
Unless you are a Navy SEAL crossed with a ninja you will not be able to do the workouts without modificaiton, but they are GREAT workouts. They will kick your butt, don't take long and work every muscle in your body.
It is popular with cops, firemen and military special forces if that tells you anything. The web site has alot on good info and training tips.

More like a regular seal. Have you done the program?
OK, went tonight. It was a pretty horrific 20 minutes-
400m run
1 burpee, 10 pushups
1 burpee, 9 pushups and so forth down to 1 pushup
400m run
increasing pyramid from 1 burp/1 pushup to 1 burp/10 PUs
400m run
15 leg ups hanging from a bar
Done for time.
No I was not able to complete those pyramids as written. They scaled those to a level appropriate for my wussiness. I now know where all the tendons in my arms and shoulders are. I was shaking so badly afterward that my handwriting looked like a third grader's.
I have done the program, but just on my own in the weight room at work. I also can not do the workout as written. I did it for a few weeks and started seeing results, but then got injured (unrelated to the workouts) and I need to get back to it now that I am health again.
There are 2 other guys that I work with that do it also. Both are marathon runners in addition to being well rounded athletes (much, much better shape than I am in) and they both swear by it.
I have tried it and failed. I must say that being in pretty good shape when you start seems to help out and makes you feel more part of it. I have two guys at work that are addicted to it and have seen great results. I think it is an awsome program, just not right for me right now.
