One of the wonderful aspects of CrossFit is that each workout can be modified to suit your needs at the time. First time trainers can work alongside seasoned athletes and experience the same degree of intensity. The intensity of a CrossFit workout is what makes it so effective and keeps Crossfitters coming back for more. We can scale (modify) the workout of the day (WOD) to suit fitness levels or most injuries. Exercising joints safely through a full range of motion in a functional (natural) manner encourages muscular coordination and can be very rehabilitative for many common injuries or ailments.
