How I Discovered Crossfit and Changed My Life

[caption id=“attachment_3720” align=“alignnone” width=“1200”]How I Discovered Crossfit and Changed My Life - Studio Ghibli anime illustration How I Discovered Crossfit and Changed My Life[/caption] I have always been interested in fitness and health, but I never found a workout routine that I enjoyed or stuck with. I used to go to the gym and do the same boring exercises, or run on the treadmill for hours, but I never saw any results. I felt frustrated and unmotivated, and I started to lose interest in working out. Then, one day, I stumbled upon a video of a crossfit workout on YouTube. It was unlike anything I had ever seen before. The people in the video were doing different exercises, moving from one station to another, lifting heavy weights, jumping, running, and pushing themselves to the limit. They looked strong, fit, and happy. I was intrigued and curious. I wanted to try crossfit for myself. I searched for a crossfit gym near me, and I signed up for a free trial class. I was nervous and excited at the same time. I didn’t know what to expect, but I was ready to challenge myself. The class was hard, but fun. The coach was friendly and supportive, and the other members were welcoming and encouraging.

I felt like I was part of a community, not just a gym. I loved the variety and intensity of the workouts, and the feeling of accomplishment after finishing them. I was hooked. I decided to join the crossfit gym and commit to the program. I started to go to the classes regularly, and I noticed a huge difference in my body and mind. I became stronger, faster, leaner, and more confident. I also learned new skills, such as lifting weights, doing pull-ups, and handstands. I enjoyed the challenge and the progress, and I looked forward to the next workout. Crossfit became more than just a workout, it became a lifestyle. But then, something unexpected happened. The COVID-19 pandemic hit the world, and everything changed. The crossfit gym had to close, and I had to stay at home. I was devastated and worried. How was I going to keep up with my crossfit routine?

How was I going to maintain my fitness and health? How was I going to cope with the stress and anxiety of the situation? I didn’t want to give up on crossfit, so I decided to look for alternatives. I searched online for crossfit workouts that I could do at home, with minimal or no equipment. I was surprised and relieved to find that there were many options available. I realized that I didn’t need a fancy gym or expensive equipment to do crossfit. I could use my own body weight, household items, or simple tools, and still get a great workout. I decided to try some of the crossfit workouts at home, and I was amazed by the results. I was able to stay fit, healthy, and happy, even during the lockdown. I also discovered new ways to challenge myself, and have fun with crossfit. In this article, I want to share with you some of the crossfit workouts that I did at home, and how you can do them too. These workouts are suitable for anyone who wants to do crossfit at home, whether you are a beginner or an advanced crossfitter, whether you have equipment or not. These workouts will help you improve your strength, endurance, agility, and coordination, while burning calories and fat. They will also keep you motivated and entertained, and make you feel good.

Workout 2: 21-15-9

  • Dips

Instructions:

  • Start with 21 push-ups. To do a push-up, get into a plank position, with your hands under your shoulders and your body in a straight line. Bend your elbows and lower your chest to the floor, keeping your core tight and your elbows close to your body. Push yourself back up to the starting position. That’s one rep. If you find it too hard, you can do the push-ups on your knees, or on an elevated surface, such as a chair or a table.
  • Next, do 21 lunges. To do a lunge, stand with your feet hip-width apart, and your hands on your hips. Take a big step forward with your right leg, and bend both knees to 90 degrees, lowering your body until your right thigh is parallel to the floor and your left knee is hovering above the floor. Keep your torso upright and your front knee behind your toes. Push through your right heel and step back to the starting position. Repeat with your left leg. That’s one rep. You can also do the lunges in place, by alternating your legs without stepping back.
  • Then, do 21 dips. To do a dip, you will need a chair, a bench, or a sturdy surface that can support your weight. Place your hands on the edge of the surface, and extend your legs in front of you, with your heels on the floor. Bend your elbows and lower your body until your arms are at 90 degrees, keeping your shoulders down and your back close to the surface. Press through your palms and lift your body back to the starting position. That’s one rep. If you find it too easy, you can elevate your feet on another surface, such as another chair or a table.

This workout is a countdown-style workout, where you do 50 reps of each exercise, then 40 reps, then 30 reps, and so on, until you reach 10 reps. The exercises are:

  • Double-unders
  • Sit-ups
  • Wall balls

Instructions:

  • Start with 50 double-unders. To do a double-under, you will need a jump rope, or a rope-like object that you can swing around your body. Hold the rope with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, and your elbows close to your body. Swing the rope over your head, and jump over it with both feet, while spinning the rope twice under your feet. That’s one rep. If you find it too hard, you can do single-unders, where you spin the rope once under your feet, or skip the rope altogether and do jumping jacks instead.
  • Next, do 50 sit-ups. To do a sit-up, lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor. Place your hands behind your head, and keep your elbows wide. Engage your core and lift your upper body off the floor, until your chest touches your thighs. Lower yourself back to the starting position. That’s one rep.
  • Then, do 50 wall balls. To do a wall ball, you will need a medicine ball, a basketball, or a heavy object that you can throw and catch. Stand about a meter away from a wall, and hold the ball at your chest, with your palms facing each other and your elbows pointing down. Squat down, keeping your chest up and your knees behind your toes. Drive through your heels and stand up, while throwing the ball up to a target on the wall, about 3 meters high. Catch the ball as it falls, and lower into a squat again. That’s one rep. If you find it too hard, you can reduce the weight of the ball, or the height of the target, or do squats without the ball instead.
  • Repeat the cycle of double-unders, sit-ups, and wall balls, with 40 reps of each, then 30 reps, and so on, until you reach 10 reps of each. Try to complete the workout as fast as you can, without compromising your form.

Tips:

  • Keep your movements smooth and controlled, and avoid jerking or bouncing.
  • Breathe deeply and evenly, and exhale on the hardest part of the movement.
  • Rest as little as possible between the exercises, but take longer breaks between the sets if needed.
  • Challenge yourself and push your limits, but don’t sacrifice your form or safety.
