Read MoreCrossFit is NOT for Everyone. Yes, you read it right.
This is not a typo…we have been saying it the other way until now..
We have been in the CrossFit "business'' in Romania since 2013 and we have seen people come & go. In the beginning, we tried to please everyone. We tried SO hard. Most of the time we lost track on what we were trying to do and we lost track of our core values. And it's true: when you try to please everyone, you please no one. In all these years we have learned that CrossFit is NOT for everyone.
Read MoreModifying workouts—scaling—is the foundation of CrossFit.
For athletes who clearly have or do not have the appropriate levels of strength, skill and conditioning, the path is clear. But what about athletes who are close to those levels or athletes on the verge of a major breakthrough? And what about athletes whose egos tend to influence their decisions?
Here’s exactly what coaches and athletes need to know to make the right decision about whether to scale the Open workout each week.
How Does Scaling Work?
The Open started in 2011, and as the sport progressed, the skills and loads needed to test the best athletes in the world became more difficult for the average person to handle. For example, a 265-lb. snatch was needed to find out Ben Smith was 12 seconds fitter than Jeff Evans on Workout 17.3. The introduction of the scaled versions of Open workout in 2015 allowed more people to compete, which is what the Open is all about, Director of the CrossFit Games Dave Castro explained in this video.
A few things to note about Open scaling:
The CrossFit Open season is about to start.
For many of us, it is a stressful month filled with anxiety about “The Announcement of the Workout,” our strategies, our multiple attempts to improve our score and even some sleepless nights in anticipation. Not to mention the unease of being judged by others who we feel may think less of us, afterwards.
In reality, the Open is just a fun, good way to test ourselves at five workouts to see how we stack up with the rest of the world. Or to test against your score last year, to see how far you have come. Especially, since so much time and dedication has been devoted to your attempt to “be the best that you can be.”
“I could never do CrossFit.”
Trainers often hear this statement from people who don’t do CrossFit, and I want to apologize for giving you the wrong impression.
I’m here to tell you CrossFit is not a sink-or-swim fitness program, and no minimum level of fitness is required.
You can do CrossFit—but I know why you doubt that.
