CrossFit workouts use a combination of weights and repetitive movements to help people get in shape. The exercises are designed to ensure that all muscles are used in the workout of the day. While the exercises can be performed by older people as well as fit athletes, the intensity is varied. This means that almost everyone can benefit from CrossFit workouts. You just begin at the level that you are comfortable with and ramp up the intensity as your strength, stamina, and fitness levels improve.
Expanding Your Lifting Capacity
CrossFit exercises mostly involve lifting weights such as squats and their variations, dead lifts, muscle ups, and so on. A few of the exercises are meant to improve flexibility and do not involve lifting additional weights or pulling up the body weight. As most of the exercises in CrossFit involve lifting weights and exercising muscles that you do not normally use, these muscles build up over time.
Improving Your Performance Levels
Another advantage with CrossFit is that the strenuous exercise and energy requirements lead you to cut down on junk food and focus on nutritious food. This too helps in building muscles. As the weight of muscles increases in your body, the metabolism revs up and more fat is burned. This makes exercising easier and leads to more muscle build up as well.
Those who want to beef up either from skinny or from fat can easily do so using the CrossFit set of exercises. These exercises are performed in a box, not a gym and the focus is primarily are gradually building up your body's strength and stamina using weights. These weightlifting exercises are designed to work every muscle of your body without damaging your bones, knees, or tendons. The many reps of each exercise you perform will gradually help build the muscles and beef you up.
