Ya. It does feel really good and yet somehow I always forget how good it feels!

So, what did you do for your first day and what did you think?

We did deadlifts, farmers run, push up (modified for me), rowing, and a couple of exercises with a pvc pipe that seemed like a combination of yoga-full body movement.

I am not sure what I think of it yet. I'm, of course, comparing it to Bootcamp.

bootcamp is very circuit training whole body movement focused, it's in a park so minimal equipment.

cross fit definitely has the gym mentality.. weights, rowing machines, etc...but it has more of a rocky gym mentality.. hanging ropes, punching bags, rope ladders, etc. Whether the tech makes it more effective or not , I'm not sure.

Both work with heart rate and whole body movements.

I think that Cross Fit does more extended work on one body part whereas circuit training tends to move around.

It's hard to know much after a day. My work out did not feel as hard as bootcamp workouts but it was day 1 of a training class and much was focused on form.

I'm going to give a few months so I can get a real comparison.

Yeah..."continuously variable" is part of the mantra. So there are more "focus days", but over a week you see a lot of differences.
