Crossfit Invading Globo Gym?

I’ve been a little under the weather lately. But tonight was the first night in almost a week that I decided to head to the gym and do some weight lifting, avoiding any high intensity work in favour of more strength type training.

To my dismay, I saw more crossfit type functional training at the gym than I’ve seen there in a very long time. It was very nice to see. There were clean and jerks, deadlifts, floor wipers, kettle bell training and other things going on, but a couple guys were also doing the virtual shovelling (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXvy9sq5wLs) that came up on the crossfit website just a couple of days ago.

Anyway, I thought it was interesting as the globo gym isn’t known for such training. Honestly - I didn’t see a single curl being done. Seems like they should invest in a few more pullup bars and maybe a couple sets of rings.
