TOP TIPS FOR BEGINNERS AT CROSSFIT
For anyone who has been in the Crossfit scene for a long time, they will have been able to verify that there are quite a few mistakes that many people make and that you also made, things that you now take for granted but did not know at the time.
The aim of this article is to offer a series of tips that will help all beginners and even intermediates not to fall into the same mistakes and in this way their efforts are much more fruitful from the first moment.
Tips for beginners at Crossfit
Eat enough, especially at breakfast.
Try to start the day strong by eating whole meat and eggs for breakfast, they will provide you with a good amount of quality protein and fat.
Perform exercises that help you improve the mobility of your shoulders and hips, since they are the limiting factor when it comes to executing the Olympic lifts with a pristine technique.
The shorter your workout, the longer your warm-up must be, this is because short WODs are especially intense because very high loads are usually handled or a high training density is usually used, in this way We can increase the training volume that is "missing" so to speak without affecting our CNS too much.
Rest yourself:
As you get stronger, it is a good idea to do one week of unloading every 4 weeks of intense training, not only to reduce the risk of injury, but to relax for a few days and come back stronger.
Do not despise dumbbells:
these are quite useful gym equipment that will help you progress as long as you know how to use them correctly.
Never, but never try to do exercises or types of WOD in which you are especially bad, that is, do not try to highlight your weaknesses, so it is better to choose something you are especially good at (for example, you can be a person with a great nervous efficiency and therefore you will be especially good in those WODs in which you work at high intensities with respect to the MRI) and try to improve.
Always do exercises to improve your grip, since this will be your biggest limiting factor throughout your sports career, since the exercises used in Crossfit wear out the forearms quite a bit (deadlifts, cleans, etc ...)
