I love crossfit, been working at for a couple years on and off. I say on and off because sometimes the environment can push you to do too much. It's a safe environment for testing your limits, but you have to be the supreme authority on what your body is ready to do vs. what you are asking it to do.
My most valuable lesson learned in crossfit is to go at your own pace (regardless of the progress of others), know and test your limits, and pay attention to your body.
The community, group workouts, events, and parties/get together's embody what crossfit is all about.
Research your boxes and while all should be preaching proper technique and form, you need to see for yourself if they are giving you the attention you think you need.
