The only crossfit stuff I've seen is a few fail videos on youtube.
Gladiator training sounds interesting. The group thing makes it sound like PE and would probably get competitive, especially if the same people go week on week.

CrossFit gets a bad press in the weight lifting forums. I think they do things quickly without much thought about form.
My friend goes to Gladiator training and says it is good fun - although hard. The groups may be 8 at most and I presume they vary as there are different times and types of classes. I want to try it but I would have probs fitting it in in my schedule.
Look out for Bikram Yoga. 90 mins in 40 degree C heat. It really is great. It is harder than 3 hours of squash. I’ve tested that. Same poses every time you go and you push yourself - the instructor tells you what you should be doing - you do your best each time. The oddest thing I have found (and another guy said the same) is that if you feel fit and ready for it - it kills you. If you feel tired and drained - you feel superb afterwards. Odd really.

That is interesting. I don’t know much about it but have you tried CrossFit? That would give you variation.
We have Gladiator training here which is loads of various things - flipping tyres, pulling sleds, weight lifting etc. Done as part of a group. I would like to try this.
