00:00It may very well be the most popular workout among A-listers, CrossFit.
00:05What is it, you ask?
00:07Well, the short description is the sport of fitness.
00:11The workouts incorporate all kinds of elements,
00:13from high-intensity interval training, weightlifting, gymnastics, and so on.
00:17CrossFit is a very intensive full-body workout
00:21that's been trending for, I would say, the last five years or so.
00:25And it's definitely responsible for a lot of celebrities
00:28shaping up for action movies,
00:30or any time you see a celebrity that's really slimmed down
00:33or built muscle mass for a role, CrossFit is usually the workout.
00:39I know Brad Pitt used it to get in shape for his last film, Allied.
00:43Vanessa Hudgens used CrossFit to lose a lot of weight
00:46when she had to gain weight for a role.
00:48So it's definitely not a light workout.
00:51It's very intensive.
00:53Not to mention Channing Tatum, Jessica Alba, Jason Statham,
00:57and Cameron Diaz, to name but a few.
00:59They all maintain their hot bods with CrossFit workouts.
01:02For A-listers who are on a tight schedule
01:05and want the best results possible in a short time,
01:07this is the perfect workout.
01:09Plus, with no two sessions being the same,
01:11it prevents you from getting bored.
01:13So if you're looking for something a little more exciting
01:15than lying on a mat and bending your body into crazy positions,
01:18CrossFit might be just the fit for you.
01:21I think prior to CrossFit,
01:23we heard mostly about yoga and Pilates,
01:25which are great workouts,
01:27but the fitness world was lacking something a little bit more extreme.
01:31And so I think that gave the perfect opening
01:33to something like CrossFit,
01:35who offered fitness enthusiasts
01:37something a little bit more intense.
01:41Pay attention, however,
01:43because although CrossFit gets you maximum results in minimum time,
01:46it also means that, like Alexis said,
01:48the workouts are pretty intense.
01:50It's definitely not for everyone.
01:52You know, it's definitely for the experienced athlete
01:56or the fitness enthusiast.
01:58You have to be a little experienced in the gym
02:01to jump into the whole CrossFit game.
02:03Don't worry, though.
02:04You don't have to be an athlete like Christmas Abbott
02:06to handle a good CrossFit workout.
02:08What you do need is plenty of discipline and endurance.
02:11So if you're planning on trying out some CrossFit
02:14to create an A-list body,
02:15be sure to be fully committed and go all the way.
02:18People who do CrossFit definitely are vocal
02:21about their passion for it.
02:24They don't take it lightly.
02:26And people who partake in CrossFit,
02:28usually it's a lifestyle.
