Is there a study or report on how many people doing crossfit end fucked after some years of training? I know a few dudes that got injured pretty bad (spine, rotator cuff, knees...).
I'm not saying we cannot get hurt with traditional lifting, but usually this is because of the retard doing the lifts and not the exercise.
There must be something. You Murricans have statistics for everything.

>suboptimal

Wasnt there like 40 pec tears at the last champs or something

crossfit is completely safe if you don't fuck up, it's that easy

crossfit naturally selects for people that have very resilient and strong bodies, which is why competitors are so jacked, plus likely PED usage.

Either way, in crossfit, you fairly quickly wash out if you don't have a resilient body. Because of this, crossfit is seen as a good sport because it seems to create strong athletes, but all it does is select them from the population.

>good sport
Repetition ad nauseam for heavy exercises looks stupid to me if not dangerous at least.

I still don't understand what the fuck is crossfit
like I seem them do retarded shit with weights or calisthencis

>>76256360
Imagine you get twenty people who've never lifted into a room together, stick a bar with 15kg either side in front of each of them, then make them perform 20 clean and jerks

>>76256360
It is just a lifting class with cardio.

>crossfit
Invented by a jew.
>competitive bodybuilding
Invented by a jew.

Stop falling for these things.

Even more cringe than crosshit acolytes is the 4Cheetos herd behaviour.

hi jacob

>>76256028 (OP)
Not a study but I work as a physio in a semi-athletic area and the vast majority of athletes I see do cross fit. They almost always have multiple injuries, usually tendon and joint issues that take months to rehab. These people have some of the most poorly balanced shoulders I've ever seen. They almost always have very little idea as to how taxing their sport truly is on their body and they're often not that strong.

The problem is extremely high volume, explosive movements that take the load off the muscles and put it straight onto the tendons + joints. Crossfit gyms target very impatient, ADHD-having individuals who just wanna "Work hArD and FeEl PumpEd!" However them asking these people to do very technical, very challenging drills like clean and jerks and high-rep pullups is reckless and stupid.

The fundamental rule of crossfit is "high intensity + high volume." If you've ever read a physiology textbook or even just watched those Mentzer clips, you know this isn't possible; you have to pick one. After those first few sets, you've already hit failure, and that's when all the pec tears and tendinopathies start.

It used to be common knowledge that CrossFit is a cult and shouldn't be taken seriously, sadly, I think we've all forgotten our duty to mock them.

>>76256360
It's combining cardio and weights which is retarded because weights aren't useful when you're already highly fatigued. Just do the endurance bullshit on non lifting days like everyone else.

>>76256028 (OP)
/fit/ used to make fun of crossfitters. now it doesn't talk about them at all. just an observation i've made lurking here for a long while.

>>76258729
It combines near-universal steroid usage with terrible form, untrained coaches, and a culture of glorifying injuries.

>>76258742
nothing to make fun of, the crossfit hype is dead
normalfags moved on to rock climbing, pickle ball, run clubs, orange theory, pilates
that guy dying at the crossfit special olympics was the final nail in the coffin for the average crosshitter, they moved on to equally gay offshoots like hyrox
all that's left is a small group of rapidly aging millennial diehards who are too scared to give the shit up

>>76256028 (OP)
every training form that let's you chase some numbers it predestined to fuck up your health once you get hooked into the number game

>>76256376
>20 clean and jerks
That's 1 set
time for 6 more

crossfit just seems to be for normies that don't know they are autistic

>>76259575
aren't classes like orange theory and barry's extremely similar to crossfit, just with more running? My impression that barrys/orange theory gets cardio in by running on the treadmills whereas in crossfit the cardio comes from just doing more reps and there's more olympic lifts

>>76256028 (OP)
I'm pretty sure that I've read something similar to that on pubmed.
Go there and type in "crossfit injuries" in the search box.
Hit enter (important, a lot of people miss this step).
Report back with your observations.

>>76257478
He is 100% correct though.

>>76256255
I lost brain cells reading this

Just like drunk driving.

>>76256028 (OP)
Damn this nigga wrapped his face around that fucking box

>>76256028 (OP)
Just injuries, but cross shitters cope and say “that person just had bad form” before they snap their own shit up

>>76257478
Im a lurker but wait 4chan is so ignorant they dont even know the jews did 9/11? Thats like saying southerners didnt do slavery.

>>76263522
hey now, drunk driving is a safe (and legal) thrill, just like flirting with nuns and throwing car batteries into the ocean.

>>76258723
>sadly, I think we've all forgotten our duty to mock them.
I think /fit/ is just kind of dead at this point. The board is extremely slow these days and half the board is ragebait from tiktok or twitter

>>76259575
>that guy dying at the crossfit special olympics
I hadn't heard about this until now. They had their competitors run AND THEN swim afterward? Who could have guessed that putting a bunch of exhausted people in the water could go wrong?

>>76256255
most crossfit gyms are basically fronts to push PEDS.
Their programming is slowly getting less retarded though.

There's probably people who think getting rhabdomyolysis and hooking to a dialysis machine is a badge of honor

>>76256028 (OP)
I only do man-makers now
