I was going to a crossfit gym for a while, but my attendance slowed over the summer for a variety of reasons. I've since moved. My new apartment building has a gym, so i'm not going to find a crossfit gym here right away.
I'd like to find a good resource to pull down a variety of strength training workouts. To be clear, I'm not looking for lists of one-off exercises, but instead websites or apps where I can look to find complete workouts of a varying intensity and length to choose from each day.
The gym is not a complete commercial gym. It's not bad, but it's missing most of the stuff I used in crossfit, like barbells and any sort of box or step for jumps or step-ups. It does have, however, a good selection of kettlebells, dumbbells, and some contraption with a TRX and those weights on pulleys. Then it's got rowing machines and standard cardio equipment.
I have tried Aaptiv, but I don't like how I can't read the workout in advance or the fact that I can't go at my own pace. Just about all the workouts in the New Rules for Lifting book involve things I don't have. I can do some substitutions, but I'd prefer to find some other options as well.

I subscribe to streetparking.com/ - it's $19/month and has multiple different versions of the daily workout with suggestions on how to modify based on your ability or the equipment you have available. It sounds like the only thing you'd be missing for some workouts would be a box/step, but they give alternatives for that as well.

A Beachbody on Demand account might work for you, although it’s more geared toward programs than individual workouts. 80 Day Obsession and Hammer & Chisel are good and don’t require much equipment. You could technically pick & choose workouts from any program, but the search engine isn’t very good.
I also like Fitness Blender for variety. (Although I haven’t used it in over a year so it might be different now.)
Not exactly what you're looking for, but if you google travel wods you can get a nice mix of crossfit style workouts that require no equipment at all.
I looked into streetparking once and that sounds like it would be perfect because IIRC you can select the program based on the equipment you have available.
