The workouts I post everyday here on this site are programmed to tax even the most elite and conditioned of athletes. Most of us cannot and should not be using the weights I post up. It also might be useful for some of us to reduce the number of reps and number of rounds suggested in the workouts. If you want some ideas on how to scale down these workouts, check out Crossfit's FAQ HERE. If you can do the workout as recommended, then that is great, but please modify it to your level of fitness. If you can't find an idea on how to modify a workout from the link above, just post the question in the comments below.
