Yeah I know a few people who have tried Crossfit and the had to quit because they got hurt within the first month.
SLAP tears from excessive kipping pull-ups is another common crossfitter injury.
I think they do a lot of exercises that are very dangerous to the shoulder / rotator cuff in general. Back injuries are pretty common too, since proper spinal posture is one of the first things to go out the window when you get fatigued.
- mathattack 13y agoI hear horror stories of injuries too. In the end it's self defeating if you are injured all the time or so exhausted that the overtraining hurts the rest of your life.
- kyllo 13y agoYeah. Actual sports teams never have their athletes do Crossfit because the number one commandment for strength & conditioning coaches is: Don't injure the players!
