Given the success of the article, come on what not to say to a crossfitter woman, I decided to create i 7 reasons so a woman should do CrossFit®, against any injury.
We are in 2020 but I still hear things like:
the ballet is for girls and boxing is for boys or even pink is for a child and blue is for a child!

But why?
Where is it written that my passions must go hand in hand with thoughts as dated as the old lire ?!
Il "Fragile sex" there is no more.
Siamo donne independent, we know manage home and family and we also find room for the muscles. Well yes, body care is of utmost importance for physical and psychological well-being.
Despite this, the old school still whispers:
"But CrossFit® is heavy", "But leave that activity to men" or even "You will look like a man with that physique".
BUT FOR PLEASURE!
Here, against these rumors, I have listed the 7 reasons why a woman should do CrossFit®; let's see who agrees with me:
1. BECOME AN INTEGRAL PART OF A FAMILY
Overcoming the WOD is something to do in a group, so your boxing mates become part of the family. They are the ones who give you energy and energy force not to give up.
La community platforms it is the result of shared passions, where victories, defeats are shared, motivated and confronted.
2. THE RESULTS ARE SEEN
Already in the first weeks, if you train constantly, the results are evident: your breath, strength, power and explosiveness improve.
The body begins to tone up and bring out a harmonious silhouette.
Better than this!
We showed some time ago, the photos of the crossfitters before and after, click here to see them!
3. DIFFERENT AND FUN TRAININGS
One thing is clear: training in a conventional gym is boring! Follow a card, with well-defined exercises that never change.
Instead in the box every day you know that there is a different challenge, you will train a different skill or even learn a new and stimulating movement.
4. YOU TEST YOURSELF
You know the famous phrase "I can not make it"? Ehhhh no.
There is no space here.
Everyone is able to make every movement, there is no different card ... you can adapt the exercises (make them scaled), but everyone gets involved.
And the beauty is to see that your limit always goes beyond what you thought.
5. MAKES YOU BECOME RESILIENT
You can't do i double under? You try (and you destroy yourself) as long as you can.
Are you not able to do the rope climb? You will train until you climb to the top.
Does that handstand walk not go beyond 2 meters? Well, you can always train the position on the wall.
The point is: learn resilience. You never give up, you fall and you get up because you have to do it, and in the end YOU CAN.
6. INCREASE ENERGY
With the improvement of physical performance, there is a significant increase in energy. You will see that you will have more predisposition to work, in domestic activities and also in social relationships.
By training, endorphins and serotonin (also called happiness hormones) are released, which promote good mood and serenity.
7. WORK ON EVERY BODY DISTRICT
CrossFit® is known to work on 10 physical abilities of the body: strength, speed, power, coordination, agility, balance, precision and strength, cardiovascular and respiratory resistance.
As if this were not enough, the crossfitters, in addition to having a perfect physique, lift a reasonable amount of weight and have a certain mobility.
