CrossFit is a tough workout that demands all-out physical
exertion three to five days a week. The program is ideal for exercise
enthusiasts who want to add intensity and diversity to their workout regimen.
However, CrossFit is not recommended for those who are just starting to
exercise or those who are resuming exercise after a long hiatus. You may need
to work with a personal trainer to develop your mobility, stability, and
movement skills before starting CrossFit.
CrossFit training workouts are typically short, lasting 20
minutes or less. The program combines strength training, speed training,
explosive plyometrics, Olympic- and power-style weight lifting, gymnastics,
endurance exercise, and bodyweight exercises. Movements used in CrossFit
training routines include the following:
- Sprinting
- Rowing
- Climbing rope
- Jumping rope
- Flipping tires
- Carrying heavy objects
CrossFit routines generally consist of explosive exercises
done in a circuit format. There is very little rest in between each exercise,
so you get a great workout in a relatively short amount of time. The following
is equipment commonly used during CrossFit training workouts:
- Kettlebells
- Barbells
- Dumbbells
- Boxes for box jumps
- Gymnastic rings
- Pull-up bars
- Rumble rollers
- Medicine balls
- Rowing machine
