Abstract in brief

  • CrossFit is a popular high-intensity workout trend worldwide, but scientific research on its effects is limited, so this study reviewed existing scientific articles to better understand its impacts.
  • The review analyzed 31 studies, with only 4 included in a meta-analysis, and only 2 of these had high-quality evidence, indicating that more rigorous research is needed; the existing studies covered topics like body composition, injury risk, and psychological factors.
  • Overall, the meta-analysis didn't find significant effects of CrossFit on measured variables, but preliminary evidence suggests it may boost community feeling, satisfaction, and motivation among practitioners.
