Crossfit is a stength and conditioning program created by Greg Glassman. As defined by Glassman, CrossFit consists of " constantly varied functional movements executed at high intensity across broad time and modal domains." Consider the person who goes to a gym three times a week and performs the same 25 minute circuit of machines that isolate specific muscle groups, completing two sets of ten reps for each exercise. Rest breaks occure between each exercise and set, Rendering the workout low in terms of intensity. He or she does this every week, year after year, using the same machines, like the quad extension machine and the biceps curl machine, and always in the same order.
CrossFit is the polar opposite. Rather than using machines that isolate a muscle, CrossFit uses compound functional exercises, such as burpees, that recruit a swath of muscle groups. Workouts constantly vary. What yo do this Tuesday will be vastly different than what you did the previous Tuesday. Workout lengths range from the couple of minutes to 7-20 minutes. Only rarely do they last 20 minutes or longer. There are no rest breaks, If its a 10 minute workout consisting of push up s, running intervals and power cleans, then you move from set to set as quickly as possible. This mixture of compound movements with little or no rest ratchets up the intensity. Along with an emphasis on healthy eating, is the basic CrossFit program. The most important thing to know is CrossFit is intended to develop high levels of fitness and health and all around athleticism.
