Anybody here do crossfit?

I'm starting it tomorrow. I know there are weird class/race issues with it for some reason, but India is the land of weird class/race issues so why not? I'll be doing that and fencing at the Bombay Fencing Club for the next two months in advance of our Kolkata wedding ceremony, at which I have to appear without a shirt, and I don't want to horrify people.

(It's the full on Bengali wedding ceremony. My wife -- we got married in the US this summer -- and I both have a costume change. She has a dance with a betel leaf fan and I have to read out Sanskrit, which I've been studying. After the shirtless part I put on a Shirwani; this is roughly the pattern and cut I got:



Now, why aren't there any US men's fashions that are that cool?)
