- Heavy lifting contributed more power to trainees than endurance athletes. Cross Fitters who have attempted to use maximum weights for heavy lifting successfully made it after three attempts.
- It provides more versatility, i.e. all over strength, stamina, or power can be achieved with it compared with endurance workouts, body building, and a lot more.
- High Intensity Interval Workouts (HIIT) that are often present in CrossFit programs provide more health benefits than simple endurance-centred exercises. Additionally, HIIT workouts need not be done daily and can even be done in under an hour and yet the strength that trainees have built up remains.
- The many fitness domains that CrossFit covers are primarily what attracts its lovers to stick with the program. These include accuracy, agility, balance, cardiovascular and respiratory, coordination, flexibility, power, speed, stamina, and strength.
