CrossFit Workouts

I’ve heard that this is a good workout regime, and I was wondering if anyone could provide more info on it? There isn’t anywhere nearby me that offers courses in CrossFit, so I was wondering if this was something that I could do on my own or should I only do it (at least initially) under the guidance of a trainer?

Thanks for your help

You can do it on your own. However, don’t throw proper form and safety out the window. Always have a spotter and learn the proper techniques before do the lift with weight. A spotter can let you k ow if you’re not doing it right.

Crossfit, like any routine, is what you make it.

I use this website, crossfit.com, and I do the workouts they say on there every day. 3 fridays ago, they had a lift where it had u doing 1-10-1-20-1-30 deadlifts ,which means you do one dead lift, then 10, etc. My lower back was in pain for the first two week when ever i sat down, and now it just hurts whenever I get up or stretch it in a weird way. Im only 20 years old, so it doesn’t hurt cuz I’m old or anything, and I have no idea what to do to make it better. I haven’t lifted since the day it happens, and I take ibprufen and I massage it with heat and it it still messed up. Any suggestions
I don’t think its anything too serious because its just my lower back, but nothing else is affected, but it feels like its my spine and not muscle

At this point, you should probably go to a doctor. It sounds a like either a pull or something wrong with the spine. But it seems worse than a pull, because pulls don’t last for two weeks. A masseuse could help also, but if it’s worse than a pull, which I think it is, he won’t help at all. A sports doctor will be your best bet.

But don’t give up crossfit. It’s really, really good. Did you do a deadlift incorrectly? Because the deadlift is really really safe, if you do it correctly.

Hey, I’m joining the military and really need to increase my strength as fast as I can. I’m started a pretty good Crossfit regimen for the workouts but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to which supplements I should be taking. Right now I’m not taking anything. I’m not trying to put on a ton of weight due to the fact that I’m mostly going to be doing tons of pushups, pullups, sit ups etc.. lots of body weight exercises because that’s really what I’m going to be doing. Tons of endurance exercises. Any info would be appreciated.

I use Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Whey, its what everyone uses for building muscle, and it gives good results.

You might want to look into some Creatine as well.
