Re: Military says You’re Too Flabby For CrossFit
Ok, so we're done here, right?
If you have so many qualms with leadership, write a letter to your congressman. I'm sure they'd love to hear from you.
As for Crossfit in the military, it seems...

Re: Military says You’re Too Flabby For CrossFit
Yes and No. Budgets are always tightly watched, but I can speak for the Air Force here. My base has a brand new (~2 yrs old) "Fitness Center" that costed $20+M. Some bases have crappy gyms, but...
