Crossfit WOD - Workout Of The Day list

Crossfit is a system (philosophy) of a general physical training of anybody, aimed at the uniform development of all physical qualities (strength, endurance, coordination, power). However, Crossfit does not require any special training or experience. The same approach (crossfit program) often applies to all athletes in the gym, however weights and intensity are scaled individually depending on the athlete's physical training. CrossFit is a branded fitness regimen created by Greg Glassman and is a registered trademark of CrossFit, Inc.

Crossfit requires constant alternation of exercises from the three main groups (weightlifting, gymnastics and cardio) to acquire an excellent and comprehensively developed physical form. In addition to alternating exercises, in a normal and balanced training program will also alternate the time (duration) of workouts - this is necessary to actualize the required neuroendocrinal response of a person to different loads. Therefore, a person engaged in crossfit training is able to perform both high-intensity training in 2 minutes, and long 20-30 minute workouts, and with the same ease run a marathon.

It is also necessary to take into account, that competing athletes and people who engaged into crossfit to maintain a good physical shape have a completely different programs.

There is a standard scheme for alternating loads of different types of training: 1st day - M, 2nd day - GW, 3d day - MG, 4th day – rest, 5th day - G, 6th day- WM, 7th day -  GWM, 8th day – rest, 9th day - W, 10th day - MG, 11th day - WMG, 12th day - rest. This scheme for general orientation in the alternation of load types. However, modern crossfit has already moved away from this scheme of compilation of training programs, many boxes have their own program, own training schedule, only the principles of diversity of training and the availability of all types of workload in the training program are general.

What should I fear?

1) Rhabdomyolysis is a possible threat to "trained newcomers in CrossFit", be very careful. It is a real threat. During the first trainings, first of all, it is necessary to exclude the possibility of the appearance of "Rabdo". Тraining for beginners on an equal basis with the main group inevitably leads to rhabdo. At least, this is an official statement. Adapt your body to such loads smoothly and do not try to set a record on the very first day of meeting with CrossFit.

2) Keep your training program balanced. Do not allow monotone work and maximally alternate exercises and modalities.

Because of the large variety of crossfit workouts, there is always a need to find a unique, interesting and balanced workout, which would fit perfectly into the athlete's unique training plan.
