How do I tell where I (my child) should start?

Click on the white Dawg icon below for a detailed explanation of the "Dawgs".

Comments or Questions:
  1. I need to know what ages levels each of the ranges are for crossfit kids are ie. Big Dawgs, puppies etc... I have ten year old son and we'd like to work out together. Can we do it together?

  2. Joy,

    Click on the icon of the dog and it will direct you to the explanations of each 'dawg' - including an age range. You can do the workouts together, just intensify or scale yours according to your fitness level.

  3. Can someone explain the buy in and cash out.
    I am assuming that is the warm up and cool down?

  4. The buy in and cash out are primarily for skill work. It is used to address areas that require extra work and/or don't necessarily come up in the WOD's. They do, however, serve a dual purpose of being a great warm up and cool down.

  5. In the buy in or buy out what do the => mean? Are all the exercises to be done, or are they all equal, and one should be done for the warm up?

  6. the=> mean one exercises seemlessly moves to the next.
    All exercises are to be done as capacity dictates, in the warm up.

  7. My kids are 4-6 and fall into thte buttercup range. i noticed there are very few workouts each week for buttercups, is this correct? Should my little ones just be doing this once per week? thank you

  8. The buttercup scaling is designed for when the puppy scaling is a little too much for the beginner CrossFitter. It is not intended to suggest the frequency of how often to workout for those who are buttercups. If there is a buttercup scaling for the WOD and your kids fall into that range then have them do the buttercup scaling, otherwise have them complete the puppy scaling if deemed safe.

  10. Bobbie Polly,

    WOD stands for Workout of the Day.
