And considering that crossfit isn't anything substantially different that things available in other disciplines (weightlifting, etc...), i don't expect it to be substantially different even in the outcomes.
Always reflect on who you are associating yourself with, in a cult, company owned group, non-democratic group, activity that marks you as "one of them",etc... you cease to be an individual and become just the fuel behind someone else's agenda and values (neither of which you can control).
Be an individual.
Says who? Links, please.
As an aside, I genuinely wonder under which circumstances a CDN will be useful for a static website nowadays. I have a static website that has been on the HN homepage a few times and got picked up by the Chrome mobile recommendations and a nginx/https with slightly tweaked configuration never had a problem handling the traffic even on the smallest DO droplet.
Edit: Thanks for these replies.
Avoid any hacks, shortcuts or methods more appropriate for less practical subjects.
Find a good and definitely not concise book or a good MOOC that explains all the basic concepts with lots of examples you can try in a Jupyter notebook. The more you code the more you learn.
Hypertension is most of the times but not always caused by your life style choices and can be fixed (not dealt with) improving weight, diet, fitness level (chronic stress and caffeine/smoking are a factor too).
For diet recommendations you could look into DASH[1] to get an idea of the direction you should take.
Anyway, this is a good time to start improving your life style as any[2].

I'll stay with AthleanX, Jeff Nippard, Fitness FAQ, Calisthenic Movement and many others... to each his own.

And as far as taste go, I can just taste the lack of iodine.
If I had to recommend an alternative, for those that are not doing IF, eat a kiwi (double the amount of vitamin c, way more fibres) and some nuts (magnesium and potassium).
E.g. water mixed with Himalayan salt and lemon in the morning.
And since I'm mentioning it, Himalayan salt is not better than normal salt. It could also contain more contaminants and it has no iodine (that could not be desirable in some countries).
Can't understand how people can follow this guy and his trivial/dumb advices. To me, he is just like that person that can't stop blabbering about stuff that has been around for decades but that he has just discovered or one of those people that blindly follow every popular trend (see the ones listed in the article) without even thinking if they really should.
I'm contemplating writing a long "from scratch" style book on another topic and I'm still not sure which language I should use. Using more than one (Java, Python,...) and generating multiple flavours of the book could be a good idea I think.
