CrossFit like everything else that is new and not understood has a lot of opposition with people making assumptions that are completely wrong, some through ignorance and others because it threatens the established fitness industry in general. This is because the results are very impressive.

CrossFit is a relative newcomer to the fitness industry and has become a very trendy form of intensive exercise. Most commercial gyms and fitness centers hate it and feel it is a threat to their businesses. This is largely because it is so successful so they try and do their best to convince people that it is all wrong and dangerous. But the facts are that it is no more dangerous than any other form of exercise if not done properly. Most CrossFit Gyms have beginners classes where they teach you all the correct ways of doing all the workouts and routines before they will allow you to join the mainstream classes. Here are five myths that are completely wrong: http://www.mobilizemephysio.com
Myth 1: You’re likely to get hurt • The facts are that taking part in CrossFit is no more dangerous than running, or playing basketball you can ask anyone who works with CrossFit Physio people. http://www.mobilizemephysio.com
Myth 2: CrossFit is Too Hard For You • People who say this just have no idea what CrossFit is all about. The fact is that CrossFit is scalable. This means that whatever your capabilities or fitness level is you can do the same routines but in a way at to the extent that you can. CrossFit is about starting at your level and through constantly varied functional movements you improve your own fitness as quickly as you can. http://www.mobilizemephysio.com
Myth 3: CrossFit is only for Athletes and Young People • CrossFit gyms (boxes) are open to everyone of all ages and fitness levels, the only real criteria is that a person wants to become a better version of themselves The age spreads from teenagers to retirees (and it’s surprising how many there are getting fit and looking like 40 year olds). http://www.mobilizemephysio.com
Myth 4:CrossFit is Expensive And a Money Machine • CrossFit is more expensive than the normal low keyed gym most people go along to play in, but then if you want a personal trainer who can really help you get fit and do all the exercises in the correct way then it is not cheap. It depends on your budget and what you think is important, your fitness or buying a $50 dollar meal as a weekly membership costs from about $50 a week so is not that expensive. http://www.mobilizemephysio.com
Myth 5: CrossFit is a great Source of Business for Hospitals, Doctors and Physiotherapists • People are now starting to realize that the old ideas that the medical profession used to preach such as it gives you pain, then just stop doing it and it will go away is counterproductive to your overall health. • The way that CrossFit Physio specialists suggest you deal with pain is to strengthen your body so it supports the area that is in pain and do special exercises to overcome the issue. Just stopping exercise because of pain or injury will lead to a sedentary lifestyle and mounting health issues. http://www.mobilizemephysio.com
