Kye737 Posted April 9, 2021 Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 Honestly haven’t seen a CrossFit tread around, and I’m sure there’re people here that have heard of, or are actively doing CrossFit! So let’s gather and hopefully maybe we could find some common topics to talk about! I’ll get the ball rolling! I recently participated in the scaled division of the opens, was my first and got to say was quite an eye opener! Anyone did that too? Am not in anyway a pro, but if you’re interested to know more about this sport! Can always reply to this tread and I’ll try to answer to it! Cheers boys! 😉 niell84 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assure you it is really accommodating to various levels of fitness! Most movements are scalable! Have you personally went thru a class before?

Sportychn Posted April 16, 2021 Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 I am interested but never try before. It does look tough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HornykinkyPhoneSex Posted April 17, 2021 Report Share Posted April 17, 2021 It is a very cardio intense sport which requires you to put your brain above your ego. The tendency to go heavier and heavier is always there and that’s where injuries take place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing that I particularly like about CrossFit is how it combines cardio with weightlifting (although might sound injury prone) but with the right supervision and technique, it is quite safe. I haven’t suffered any serious injuries till date (touch wood), but that’s probably also because I don’t go all out, which a lot of CrossFitters usually do.

Even though the workouts are mostly short to medium length workouts (5-13 mins), there’re longer ones (30-40 mins) that requires the athlete to pace themselves in order to keep their heart rate manageable!

Yea thought some quick change in movement with heavy weights can be injury prone. But agree with proper guidance it can still be conducted safely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifeart Posted April 17, 2021 Report Share Posted April 17, 2021 (edited) Yes it looks really fun. But I am worried about the peer pressure of not being able to perform the tasks like the other (ultra-fit) dudes. Paiseh.

Guest CrossFit enthusiast Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 Halo. I’m trying to grow the Cf community because I noticed a lack of information, togetherness and forum to bring everyone together. ive started a tele channel to dump everything Cf related. hopefully we can learn and progress together as one unit as how it’s intended to be. https://t.me/ATCFSG see ya there!
