The only down side is CF uses ALOT of shoulder pressing type movements and other shoulder exercises in consecutive workouts which can wear down shoulder joints quicker then normal. It is very easy to develop shoulder and elbow type injuries if you are not careful.

Yeah no good I've been dealing with shoulder for long ass time. Don't wanna aggravate it. I can do a lot of the moves but putting a crossfit workout in would just mess it up.
