Good you in the my training..werre u country.

[@evagardner6013]

So the blog post beginner workouts… if it’s 10 different workouts, do you just work on each one a different day until you get better at them Before getting training?

[@simonmitchell3354]

Yes please. More beginner content would be great. A couch to confident style video would be awesome. I’m 46 and over weight and see those doing CrossFit and instantly think “I can’t do that”. This video makes me think “I might just be able to do this”.

[@deedeesoto3900]

I joined CrossFit at 58 yrs old and 248 pounds. I was nervous and worried I wouldn't be able to do what the others were doing. the coaches had me scale or do a foundation workout according to what I could do. The first 6 weeks i lost 15 lbs and by 8 months I had lost 48lbs by just doing the CrossFit workout. I didn't change my diet just my intentions and determination to go five days a week and do the workout. Not gonna lie I was sore in places I never thought you could be sore in. I wish I had known about CrossFit earlier in my life but I am genuinely happy I found it now. I started weightless with a PVC pipe and then went to a 15lb bar up to the 35lb bar. I haven't run in years cause of weak knees due to being overweight. I run now, it's a scale run but I'm running and that's amazing. Give it a try. Not a traditional gym. Members are amazing, coaches are amazing and so helpful. I'm trying to reach a goal weight closer to 150 but my main goal first is to be stronger and healthier. My trainer always said 1% every day is what gets you to your goal. It doesn't happen overnight, nothing does but 1% will get you there. 1% of nothing is still nothing but 1% of something is something. I'll take something over nothing any day. Good luck in whatever you do.

Did you start CrossFit ?

[@vutruvianhomer3597]

@@deedeesoto3900Amazing. I’m 53 and concerned about starting. I do run but that’s all. This gives me hope 😊

[@wendyreeves-hampton3503]

Yes please to more beginner content! I’m 52 and new to CF and LOVING it. My teachers at CrossFit sweat shop in Walnut Creek are wonderful but I’m hungry for more!

[@jeffreybabino8161]

Hi iam a beginner to cf ware do you start want to workout at home I have a home gym in my second bedroom in my apt thanks

[@sophiespal]

Yes, more beginner content. Even for those of us who have been going to CrossFit for years, we don't always have the basics covered. The handstand kick up to the wall is still my nemesis.

[@geriatricmillenial1983]

Yes full guide for all. I would like to see more beginner content.🏋️

[@Debbieschimandle]

Loved this video! I am 62 and just joined a Cross Fit gym and feel quite overwhelmed when I go. Burpees are physically challenging for me. I love the weight lifting parts of the workout. Please continue making videos for beginners!

[@colleenrutland2142]

Yes! More beginner content! This is very helpful for those of us who haven’t been in an exercise program for years. I’ve had one week of instruction at CrossFit and need more. I’m going to my first CrossFit class in a few days.

[@robinsavino1388]

Just had my 2nd class! I love it…I’m 56 and looking to tone up. The pandemic left me unmotivated and a little “soft” so I’m excited to get back into it. I feel like CrossFit may be my answer. Looking for lots of beginner content. Thank you!!

[@WODprep]

Awesome! Keep at it, I'm confident CrossFit will help you reach your goals.

[@taraes82]

Those side by side comparisons of all the different presses just clarified soooo much for me. Thank you!

[@WODprep]

glad it helped!

[@winwithchristina]

Yes, I'd be grateful for more beginner content. I'm 57 with some muscle and strength however; I've been behind the computer sitting for far too long. Ready to get strong and fit.

[@kristiemayberry6205]

Yes! Beginner content please. I’m also 51 and have old injuries. I need to build those weak areas so that I am “functional” as I get older.

[@kyrstiejoeellering7497]

YES!! Definitely more beginner content, first off. Second.. I am SO glad I found this video and I will Definitely be checking out your online gym / courses. This video was very informative and easy to follow without being dumbed down to the point of being appropriate for mostly kindergartners. Thank You!! BIG Thumbs up!! 👍💪😆

[@donnacowan5615]

Yes please. Proper form is so important for beginning a new exercise.

[@richellemorehu8461]

Yes please beginners video and all the techniques for CrossFit be awesome 😊

[@donaldrose2061]

I'm a 63 year old male and I've been working in an office for the last 20 years. Prior to going to the office I had a 52 inch chest 34 inch waist and ran 3 miles in 16 mins. I was in great shape. So I'm starting over to get back into physical condition. More videos for beginners is a great idea. Please provide them. Thanks Donald Rose

[@angelaharper1096]

[@LSMartinson1953]

I get so many questions from "mature" friends about "Crazy Crossfit"? You make it look very approachable - keep on!

[@sharonharrison2597]

I would love a home video or a beginner/senior workout. I use to go to CrossFit before Covid and was building strength but I need to get back in but probably less strong as when I first started. I would like to have a month or two working up my strength and endurance before going back to the gym

[@TheHumanBodyTalk]

🔝🔝🔝

[@elxenos1]

Great video! Love the way you explain each exercise.

[@lyndawms]

Yes to beginner content!!! That's how you get everybody to join in and not be so intimidated..

[@TrinaRaysTrekofLife]

Yes please, more beginners content! I HATE burpies... but when you said "If you can't do burpies, then you are one step away from assisted living." That does kinda motivate me to do them more!! LOL

[@WODprep]

Haha! Thanks, will keep the beginner content roling...

[@thetravelingteacher1001]

This video is a gem. I’ve been trying to start CrossFit and this vid helps. Keep it coming bro !

[@darleneheihn8332]

Yes yes more beginner videos please. I just joined a CrossFit gym one month ago and I love it, but need more guidance, hence KZbin. Thank you

[@PercivalFromWales]

Checking in from the Netherlands!🇳🇱 Totally new to CrossFit, but loving it already! The atmosphere is very welcoming. I'd expected to be frowned upon as a newbie, but I felt right at home from the start. I want to lose weight, gain strength and improve my posture, but that's not going to happen by itself. I'm willing to put in the work. The advice is more than welcome and much appreciated! 💪

[@riittaguse7743]

Yes please more beginner videos. I would like to exercise but have very low endurance and need to start somewhere. Thanks

[@MegaSkiman]

Just joined Crossfit and this video was very informative. Thank you.

[@feliciah3135]

[@sue8935]

ABSOLUTELY YES MAKE MORE BEGINNER CONTENT.

[@justmai5078]

Yes yes yes for more beginner content. The way you break it down is really helpful. Can you please do one on pushups broken down like this

[@WODprep]

Great idea, will add to my list!

[@marycjulius9597]

Yes please. Beginner crossfit videos would be appreciated.. thank you❤

[@shelleywallace1228]

Yes!! I’ve been lifting weights for over 10 years but I need more cardio to my workouts.. this seems to combine them both and WAY more interesting than just cardio. Love this info.

[@dianazuniga6866]

Yes more beginners content. I will be practicing the pull up 🥴

[@Axatron8001]

Yes! Please do more beginner stuff!

[@bronwynrusso5288]

[@iammattphinn]

Yes, please make more of the beginner content.

[@sarahrobinson2161]

Fantastic thank you, burpee and pull up and skipping 🤣. I'm not new to weights, but want to start crossfit 48 and very heavy.. hopefully this will help. 😊

[@tomk3478]

Yes, please do more beginner's content. This kind of thing is is incredibly helpful!

[@WODprep]

More to come! Thanks for the feedback!

[@debbiedavis2643]

Yes more beginning video's I have lost over 100 lbs and started working out to keep the weight off. I am trying to learn how to do pull ups and to climb a rope

[@christinemckee7421]

Thanks for a great video. I’d welcome more videos on the basics. I injured myself doing deadlifts incorrectly and it has taken a long time to heal.I’m lifting again but taking it slowly. Beginning lifting in mid-life is a big learn and injuries take extra time to heal so any training to help us do lifts properly I’m all for that

[@jacobdowney5553]

Yes Please, new to Crossfit and so far loving it, would love more knowledge

[@dianevashey2317]

Started CF at 66. I love it!!

[@ovencleaning]

Yes will start skipping - jump rope and yes to more like this!

[@MM-pp1tl]

I really enjoyed this introduction to basic crossfit movements and feel they are just the easy step motivation I need to begin my journey to improved strength and health.

[@jessicaerin9620]

I’d love more beginner content! I live in a really remote area overseas with no CrossFit classes available but I like what I’ve seen other accomplish with it. I’m hoping to learn it on my own to increase my fitness.

[@nicholassmith7863]

Awesome. Yes, more beginner content. There is a ton of information about advanced movements but very little for those just beginning. Amazing content throughout. Keep doing what you're doing.

[@kimmccarthy4059]

I need to work on burpees. Right now I do it by stepping through. This is the first CF beginner instruction I’ve found, trying to figure out how to start and make a plan and start doing beginner classes 3 times a week.

[@vincentcauserano9098]

Burpees for sure. Thank you for making this! Great video

[@MadeleineMudd]

Yes on more beginner content!

[@CraftCutter]

This video is great!! Yes more beginner videos, I need to work on my burgers and my pull-ups, definitely need to start training the right muscles to pull ups, I can not do any at the moment

[@jessierios3980]

This beginner video was awesome. Thank you! Please make beginner content for all CrossFit moves.

Yes more beginner content please! Great channel!

[@vivianvargas403]

Yes please more beginners content I'm new And going a bariatris surgery process

[@mtcdocful]

Definitely the strict pull up. I find that in my box we are always concentrating on the WOD of the day. I think I need to figure out how to fit strength training into my plan.

[@marthagutierrez8930]

Yes!! More content for beginners would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you !’n

[@kennethhettinger3577]

yes more beginner content just starting out at 59 years of age best way to get back in shape

[@WODprep]

Thanks for the feedback, I'm on it!

[@Sarah_millionaire_2024]

That’s the most beneficial video I have ever seen as a beginner you made those movements very clear to me and you definitely deserve to be followed, I felt like some teacher showed me the basic as clear and easy as possible ! Many thanks to you please keep doing those videos about fundamentals in sports also fundamentals about machines in the gym please 🙏🏼

[@WODprep]

Glad it was helpful! ❤

[@avrillawless]

Brilliant, thanks from the UK! 👍💪 Yes please to more beginner content 😊

[@ghostdriver]

Yes definetly more beginner stuff!!!

[@judigroom2359]

Yes, I would LOVE more beginner training as CrossFit to me seems impossible but I would love to make it possible for me. Thank you. I just admire CrossFitters so much

[@popcornenglishonline9548]

Brazil here... Thank you teacher!

[@agnesboland8920]

Yes please more beginner content!

[@sharabrooks8371]

More beginner content please! Loved this video

[@jessicadesanti1280]

Love the video! A beginner and still struggling with cleans and snatch.

[@WODprep]

They will come! They are pretty advanced movements!

[@debrarubinutube]

I loved the real life movements tied into some of these. I am working one on one with a coach from my box and I learned more from this video than hours with her. I never understood what tight core was, like the bracing for a punch description. Closing the car door with you butt for the squat is genius. I really liked the way you described the press movement being similar to putting away groceries because I used to push the bar in front of me. I do think you made the pull up seem easier than it is. Many people at our box have to do modifications and as a beginner it is a tough one. I love this beginner video, will be watching your other videos explaining more about the most basic movements.

[@WODprep]

Appreciate the feedback! ❤

[@kerryblum9672]

yes more beginner content. Thank you!

[@stevenpfotzer112]

Yes I would like more beginner content

[@alecmurillo56]

[@ryant5652]

I found this very helpful and would for sure watch more beginner videos!

[@gaylstroup1267]

Starting with my first CrossFit workout tomorrow

[@francooliveira9929]

I’m on my second week of CF. This video was so useful because it teaches basic movements that for a beginner is something new. I found this video very helpful because I can learn the movement concepts then be more prepared as a beginner when I actually have to execute the movements at the gym classes! Thanks !

[@WODprep]

Glad it was helpful! Good luck - just stay consistent and you'll get there!

[@laurencrumbaker231]

Ben, your tutorials are so helpful!THANK YOU!!!

[@teresaanthony9987]

I just watched for the 1st. Time, I’m 61, 5’ shorty, I’m interested in more squats, the burpee, also sit-ups, I’m in the process of buying a few kettle ball weights, the bar, and medicine ball, I have a treadmill, and do about 3 miles in the am, & 3 miles pm. After work, I only have a small basement, but do have other equipment, eleptical, and floor bicycle. I hope you do more videos, and I do hope they are longer, thank you so much.

[@vanessaarellano3572]

Great video!! As a beginner in CrossFit this was very helpfull. More content please. Pull-up, cleans and snachts are difficult to me. Tips to improve these!! I love the way you explain, it seems easier than in the box.
