This means that CrossFit’s program should be valuable if it has a low potential for getting hurt and it does. There is not clear data about CrossFit specifically due to a study the National Strength and Conditioning Association performed at Ohio State University fabricated injury rates at a local affiliate in 2013 that led to hundreds of misunderstandings. Looking at the parts that make up CrossFit: bodyweight, weight training, and endurance-based sports, the injury or risk involved with CrossFit is close to or no different than other traditional exercise programs. There will always be a chance of orthopedic calamity when getting off the couch, but the benefits it could have on your cardiovascular-respiratory system, blood sugar levels, inflammation, bone density, etc., easily outweighs the risk of injury that could be associated with any type of movement.
The likelihood of benefits over negative side effect of exercise ties into the efficacy of CrossFit’s program. Efficacy means results. This means asking questions like did it work or not? Did the program help you lose 20lbs or hit a new bench press personal record? CrossFit programs are clear when it comes to an end result because of the way we measure and observe our data. Safety and efficacy go hand in hand. Having a safe and effective program is entirely realistic. Efficiency is how well it works or how it gets done. How fast did the program get you there? Did you take 5 years to add 5lbs to your bench press to avoid injury or are you willing to add some intensity to pass that goal sooner? CrossFit’s programming being constantly varied, built with functional movements, and performed at relatively high intensity is a well-rounded way to get safety, efficacy, and efficiency all in one.

Fitness cannot be fully achieved unless both pieces are working together. Nutrition includes anything that your body ingests, including fitness drinks. Protein drinks are very popular among exercise communities, they are a great way to jump start the recovery process after exercise. Getting into this habit can be very useful when executed in a manner that is consistent with how foods are consumed during the time exercise is not happening (i.e. the rest of the day). We consider a protein drink to be part of a recovery “snack” that the body can use immediately after completion of a workout, but the protein drink is only one part of this post-workout snack. We encourage that you pair a whole fruit and a few nuts along with your post-workout protein drink. The protein will start to repair your muscles, and the carbohydrate and fat will help replenish your energy levels. Try this: 1 scoop of your favorite protein powder 1 large apple/banana/grapefruit/orange (etc.) 1 small handful of your favorite nut Stay consistent in this habit for a few weeks and let us know how you are feeling in the comments!

CrossFit workouts and nutrition are often always being described or used in a way that can be quantifiable. This means in CrossFit we measure what we do for exercise and training, as well as how and what we eat. We use weights, time, distances, and macronutrient values so we have clear and measurable standards, helping us develop clear and reliable data. These numbers give us a sense of our overall fitness levels and the direction we are moving. For example, if we keep track of a 1-rep max deadlift, protein intake, and resting heart rate in the morning, we can see if these numbers are moving in the right direction. Following the CrossFit protocol, in almost every circumstance, will move these numbers in the right direction. If the values are not moving in the right direction, then the methodology and practices that CrossFit values will adapt to be what most effectively, efficiently, and safely drives the results. CrossFit uses the same scientific method that we all learned in middle school: question, hypothesis, test, observe, repeat. Our goal is to do what works best. If the data says what we are doing is not the best, we drop those practices and move on.

We have all seen the commercials about how Gatorade and Powerade help you hydrate and replenish electrolytes after exercise, but that is not true. One study found that the beverage that an athlete drinks after short or prolonged exercise does not matter because hunger mechanisms will kick in, and food is the most effective way to replenish those lost electrolytes. In general, humankind was at its fittest when there were hunter-gathers who had to navigate rough terrain, climb trees, and maintain strength to carry home the meat they hunted. Back in those days, there was no Coca-Cola and Pepsi Co. to push their sugary propaganda. What did those people drink? Water. The best way to hydrate is water, and the best way to recover is by using the CrossFit protocol to fuel your body. Meat, veggies, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch, and no sugar (even in “recovery” drinks). Sources: You Don’t Need Sports Drinks To Stay Hydrated | FiveThirtyEight Have questions?

Fitness routines can be useful to an extent. When you are in a routine, the routine will be challenged when you need to go outside of the routine. Fitness is a snapshot of your work capacity over time, and your change in fitness over time describes your health. With specific goals and objectives, routines can be incredibly useful. They are great for building habits, practicing skills, or making a linear progression. Though once a routine has reached its full potential, the routine is no longer useful.
In most training there are three phases. Beginner, where movements and patterns are very cognitive. Intermediate, where movements and patterns become more comfortable. And advanced, where athletes can do movements and patterns autonomously, without thinking about them. No matter what stage an athlete is in, science suggests that increasing the stress in movements and patterns elicits more adaptation. When an athlete adapts to a movement or pattern, it can no longer be useful unless that movement or pattern is put under more stress, for example, if deadlifting 135# with great form is no problem for you, you might add 10# to the bar. If an athlete who is comfortable deadlifting 135#, the comfort will not help when a situation arises when you must lift 145#. CrossFit’s constantly varied model is more effective than routines because CrossFit requires constant adaptation. The gains you make will sweep across all aspects of fitness, which is more important to fitness because life is filled with unknown and unknowable challenges including illness and accidents. When we are more physically well rounded, by extension we are more mentally well rounded, and therefore prepared for challenging situations life brings. Routines can be useful to take you from a very specific point A to a very specific point B, but fitness is a lifelong journey that transcends points A and B.
