I just did my first Crossfit last night, apart from the 'box' (see I'm a pro already) being all men, it was good fun. Before that I got a load of ideas from nerdfitness.com, maybe that could help you?

Crossfit is amazing when you find the right gym and the right trainers. It can be awful if it's the opposite, from what I've read, which is really too bad.

So true! I do Crossfit 4x a week and love my gym! It has a family mentality which is one of the reasons that I keep going.

You're lucky it has showers! Many boxes don't.

Except for my morning walk 5x/wk, I don't really have a schedule. Some crunches. Some squats, some "girl" pushups. Some resistance. I like occasionally lifting my living room chairs because it's an uneven movement, so I have to be careful, and because they're heavy and I use a lot of muscles. Some calf work using the edge of my stairs.

But not really a schedule. I write it down so I don't completely avoid the things I like least (pushups), but it's pretty much do what I feel like. Sometimes I'll just turn on music and dance around the apartment 'til I'm sweaty.
