At CrossFit, there is no messing around.
Average number of commenters? Oh, about 700. And if you have not the faintest idea how to do some of the exercises, there are instructional videos available to help a girl out. CrossFit's program also allows for rest days and recommends that you have outside activity other than CrossFit exercises. And of course, nutrition is very important. As it is with everything.
You wanna lose weight? There is no question about whether or not you will here.
CrossFit's principal is based on change. The way CrossFit puts it, "Routine is the enemy." If you do the workouts of the day (WOD) you'll gain lean muscle mass and build strength and stamina. You will.
In 100 words, this is CrossFit's vision of World Class Fitness:
"Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports."
And if you think you can't do it, look at who CrossFit is good for: Everyone from athletes and police academies to...the elderly.
