crossfit has some good workouts, like the named ones. But, most people don't want to follow the WOD program because it's just so freaking random, whereas we have specific goals in mind. It would just be hard to find any improvement, other than GPP, with a crossfit routine because they have so many arbitrary workouts. One day it's squat thrusts, supersetted with handstand pushups. The next it's to run 6 km. And the following day is to do 200 pullups for time, or something. But I do admit that for conditioning I do use some crossfit workouts.

Crossfit endurance looks like it'd be good for triathalons . One of my goals in life is to run a marathon and triathalon before I get too old, so maybe i'll start using that site when the time is right.
