CrossFit - Is CrossFit Dangerous? With Dr. Amy West

7/18/2022

0 Comments

 
Hi, friends! I attended the 2022 Virtual CrossFit Health Conference in January. Shortly after, I shared snippets of information from Dr. Amy West's presentation in our MCF Newsletter! Recently, CrossFit shared a version of Amy's presentation which goes even more depth than the portions I was able to quote from her in the newsletter. This is a really inspiring and informative talk; so, I wanted to share her video here! If you've got questions about CrossFit and the science behind injury and incidence rates medical professionals are treating, it's a super interesting talk.  Use this knowledge to educate yourself and share with others that have safety reservations (or maybe using that a an excuse) keeping them from starting CrossFit today. 

Some things you can expect from this video: 
- Principles of CrossFit - practice CROSSFIT, practice it fully not with inconsistency or leaving holes
- Recovery/rest 
- Injury rates 
- Encouragement to trust the process and trust good coaching on the best way to move
- Assessing if it's a CrossFit methodology issue versus coaching, ego or external factors 
- Scalability and functionality of CrossFit
- Special populations CrossFit serves
- Be aware of partnerships, organizational connections, and where content/information sharing is being filtered through  
- CrossFit is safe 

Check. It. Out.
