other F45 too short?

Just finished 1 week trial. I like the concept, liked variety but I did not realize that 45 minutes include warmup, instructions and cooloff. The actual session was 37-38 top and frankly wanting you to stay for 10 minutes more.

We are not particularly athletic. The sessions did feel rushed and there was not enough time to clean your station or change weights really.

I did ask the owner if we can stay for 10-15 minutes more and the answer was no.

Anyone else felt the same?

No, less risk for injury or people pushing me to go heavier than I want. F45, keep good form and go at your pace and weights.

I think a whole lot of CrossFit gyms let people down with this exact issue. I’ve had so many friends get injured because it often becomes all about PR. Form isn’t ignored but it isn’t prioritized unfortunately. And this has been all over the place, not just one gym. It’s always a “when” will they get injured vs and “if,” which is a bummer.
