“You’re doing Crossfit, You’re going to get hurt!”
How many times have you heard that when you tell people what you are doing or when you are trying to get your friends to join you at Crossfit?
This is a ridiculous statement from someone who knows nothing about Crossfit.
You do not get hurt at Crossfit if you pay attention to what you are supposed to be doing and you don’t let your ego get the best of you. I mean if your coach is a tard that might be problem also but it’s up to you to make sure that doesn’t happen.
You can get hurt in any gym or playing any sport or even walking if you walk the wrong way.
Do people get hurt in Crossfit? Yes.
Why do most people get hurt in Crossfit? Well, I’ve been coaching for 11 years and from what I’ve seen people get hurt
From overuse, from using too much weight they shouldn’t be using and from poor form.
All of which can be avoided if someone does what I mentioned at the top of the page.
So saying Crossfit will get you hurt is crazy, maybe a proper statement would be, Oh, you’re doing Crossfit that’s great I hope it works well for you.
But unfortunately very few people want whats good for other people so don’t hold your breathe waiting to hear that statement.
