Like I said, they both do have an aerobic component, but that is about the only parallel I draw. Crossfit has an actual strength component, which the other two lack.
Let me ask you this. Do you train yourself? If so what sort of programming do you follow?

A bit of a stretch...Crossfit is different but not "much" different. You only see an aerobic component as the only commonality? Wow. Because I see strength training as another commonality as well. What about anaerobic conditioning? What about interval training? What about periodization? Because I see all of those in common as well.
I don't train. But I do exercise. I am a former elite soccer player and have tried all forms of exercise. Plus I have been involved in training athletes and being trained by certified strength and conditioning specialists. So, I try to mix it up each day I exercise from what I have applied and been involved in.
