Research shows that exercising in non-neutral temperatures increases energy expenditure as the body works to maintain its core temperature.
CrossFit combines elements of weightlifting, gymnastics, and high-intensity cardio into constantly varied workouts of the day (WODs). The high-intensity functional movements performed at maximum effort make CrossFit one of the highest calorie-burning exercise programs. Workouts typically last 15-30 minutes but deliver extraordinary metabolic demand. CrossFit builds all-around fitness across strength, power, speed, coordination, flexibility, and cardiovascular endurance simultaneously.
