what is crossfit?
As described by CrossFit LLC, “CrossFit is a fitness program that produces measurable outcomes through lifestyle changes, centered on training and nutrition. Workouts consist of constantly varied, high-intensity, functional movements, and are most fun and effective among friends at a local CrossFit gym” (Crossfit, 2023).
CrossFit® is underpinned by the tenets of the “mechanics, consistency, intensity charter”. This charter explains that you as a functional fitness athlete should first know how to move correctly. Once you understand how and why you need to complete a movement correctly we would then assess your ability to display this technique in a number of environments and under a variety of stimulus and load. Once you as a functional fitness athlete can display mechanics and consistency, only then is intensity added. You can read more about this charter on The CrossFit Journal here.
