Is CrossFit dangerous?
No. Even though every physical activity comes with some inherent risk, those risks can be minimized through competent instruction and close supervision. You will get that at CrossFit 204, and our primary concern is your health and well-being. We will make every effort to ensure your safety at all times. And while accidents are unavoidable, studies have shown that weight training has less injuries than many other sports. You can read a summary of one such study here: Brian P. Hamill. “Relative Safety of Weightlifting and Weight Training.” Journal of Strength Training and Conditioning 8(1): 53-57, 1995. We firmly believe the risks of activity are grossly outweighed by the risks of inactivity—heart disease, obesity, etc.
