"The National Strength and Conditioning Association is asking the public to disregard the claims its study made regarding injuries in CrossFit. After two years of inaction and litigation, the NSCA has finally issued an erratum, or correction, regarding one of its most prominent studies."
The study claimed:
" “Crossfit-Based High-Intensity Power Training Improves Maximal Aerobic Fitness and Body Composition,” ......that 16 percent of its subjects cited “overuse or injury” as their reasons for not completing the training." .............."This may call into question the risk-benefit ratio for such extreme training programs …"
Needless to say the CrossFit Legal Team took issue with such extreme suppositions and went to battle in the court system for the last two years to make the NSCA take back their unsubstantiated claims.
