Crossfit is
a training method that is used by police academies, military units, martial
artists and other professional athletes around the world. This method of
training is extremely popular and you will find more and more health clubs offering
this type of training program.
As well it
is also possible to set up your own home gym and perform your own Crossfit
training system. All you need is enough space. If you have been planning on
making a workout room in your basement, now you have a wonderful excuse to
finally get started.
A Crossfit
training program is designed to be a broad program which can be
individualized. Programs can be tailored
to cater to seniors, people with heart issues and for prize fighters training
for their next cage fight!
The basis
of the program stays the same. It is the degree level that changes to fit the
participants. Many Crossfit gyms are now offering programs for kids. These
classes have a low teacher to student ratio, normally classes start off with
just 3 or 4 children. These classes are increasing in popularity especially for
parents who are already involved in Crossfit. It just makes sense to get their
kids involved too.
A Crossfit
workout includes functional training where you are learning to move your entire
body. It is very common to see participants jumping onto high boxes with ease!
Each
workout focuses on the following 10 areas:
By
improving all of these areas you will have the ability to do daily lifestyle
tasks more easily. Carrying home heavy shopping bags won’t be an issue. Playing
with your grandchildren will be easy. Even yard work and gardening won’t seem
like such an effort.
There are
two main ways you can take part in a Crossfit class. First you can find a
location that offers Crossfit near you. Your second choice is to follow a
Crossfit training program online.
This can be
done by visiting Crossfit.com
and taking part in the exercise of the day. If any exercise is unfamiliar then
you want to take the time to learn how to perform it correctly. You can easily
substitute exercises if you find them too difficult or if you don’t have the
right equipment for them.
Crossfit is
a great way to get a true total body workout. It can be fun to do at home or at
your local gym in a class setting, the choice is yours.
