A Comparison of Some Strength Parameters in Crossfit Training and Resistance Training

Year 2022, Volume: 10 Issue: 3, 44 - 50, 10.10.2022

Abstract

Crossfit is an exercise method that includes high-intensity functional training, resistance exercises, gymnastics, and aerobic exercises and creates variations between them daily. As it gets popular with its time-efficient workouts, the long and time-consuming traditional training began to lose its popularity. Still, it's unclear if Crossfit training is advantageous in terms of various fitness attributes compared to traditional resistance training. So this study aims to examine whether there is a difference in strength, muscle endurance, and vertical jump parameters between individuals who apply Crossfit training and those who apply traditional strength training. 10 Crossfit-trained individuals formed the Crossfit group (CrG) and 9 resistance-trained individuals formed the Traditional group (TG). Countermovement jump (CMJ), Handgrip strength, Leg, and Back strengths, 30s Sit-ups, and maximum Push-ups tests were applied. There was no significant difference for all measured parameters between groups. In conclusion, the present study found no significant difference between the groups that performed Crossfit training and traditional resistance training in terms of strength, muscular endurance, and vertical jump performances. Due to similar results between groups, Crossfit training can be recommended as an alternative method for strength development.
