The goal of CrossFit is to develop your overall fitness, meaning, all of the skills you need for everyday life. CrossFit has actually defined these 10 physical skills:
Cardiovascular/respiratory endurance – The ability of the body’s systems to gather, process, and deliver oxygen
Stamina – The ability of body systems to process, deliver, store, and utilize energy
Strength – The ability of a muscular unit, or combination of muscular units, to apply force
Flexibility – the ability to maximize the range of motion at a given joint
Power – The ability of a muscular unit, or combination of muscular units, to apply maximum force in minimum time
Speed – The ability to minimize the cycle time of a repeated movement
Coordination – The ability to combine several distinct movement patterns into a singular distinct movement
Agility – The ability to minimize transition time from one movement pattern to another
Balance – The ability to control the placement of the body’s center of gravity in relation to its support base
Accuracy – The ability to control movement in a given direction or at a given intensity
CrossFit's high-intensity workouts combine a wide variety of functional movements like squats, running, kettlebell swings, push-ups and more. The works are varied, but not random to develop all of the physical skills above. Here are just a few of the benefits you can expect from doing CrossFit consistently:
Improved cardiovascular fitness that will help you tackle any challenge life throws your way
Increased strength and muscle mass that will make you feel stronger and more confident
Better body composition, as you reduce body fat and increase muscle mass
Improved flexibility and mobility that will help you move with ease and grace
Enhanced mental toughness that will help you overcome physical and mental obstacles
A supportive community of fellow athletes who will cheer you on and help you stay motivated and committed to your goals
