CrossFit is one of the most popular workouts in the U.S., with thousands of athletes practicing daily. But in 2020, more than 500 gyms disaffiliated themselves from the official brand in response to Glassman’s racist tweets during the 2020 Black Lives Matter movement and his history of controversial behavior regarding race and gender in the sport, according to a Google document petition of disaffiliated gyms.

 After Glassman's resignation in early June 2020, Eric Roza took over as the company's new CEO and owner, according to CrossFit. Roza announced he was buying 100 percent of CrossFit from Greg Glassman for an undisclosed amount of money in late June 2020, according to ‌Business Insider,‌ and put 1 percent of the CrossFit stock in a trust for Maggie Glassman (Glassman's wife) and their children.

In July 2021, CrossFit announced a new president, Jason Dunlop, previously of Nike and Starbucks, who will work on expanding the sport globally, according to the ‌Morning Chalk Up‌.

The sport strives to establish gender equity among athletes, providing equal prizes at the Games for people assigned male and female at birth, according to CrossFit. Most CrossFit statistics categorize athletes into female or male groups, which is why we use the terms “women” and “men” below.

60% of CrossFit athletes worldwide are women, according to the American Council on Exercise (ACE). 40 men and 40 women compete at the CrossFit Games each year, according to the CrossFit Games. Each year at the Games, one man and one woman win the title of the “Fittest on Earth.”

CrossFit Statistics by Age Image Credit: LIVESTRONG.com Creative CrossFit is a sport that transcends age, with many athletes under the age of 18 and above the age of 65. Here’s an age breakdown for the sport, according to Rally Fitness:

Under 18: 18% 18 to 24: 6% 25 to 34: 40% 35 to 44: 20% 45 to 54: 8% 55 to 64: 2% 65 and older: 5%

CrossFit Workout Statistics Most CrossFit workouts (called workouts of the day or WODs) take fewer than 15 minutes to complete, according to ‌BoxLife Magazine‌, a popular CrossFit publication. CrossFit class sizes vary depending on the space of a specific gym, but one class can typically host 13 to 18 people, according to CrossFit. Although there’s an element of surprise to CrossFit — you don’t always know the workout of the day before you get to the gym — there are a few common and popular WODs experienced CrossFitters recognize. Glassman gave many of these workouts women’s names, while other WODs are named after members of the military. The goal is usually to do the WOD as quickly as you can or for as many rounds as possible (AMRAP) in a set time.

Most study participants hit about 80% of their VO2 max (a measurement of the oxygen used during intense exercise) on average during the two workouts.

After 12 weeks of CrossFit training, athletes saw a 22% improvement in muscular endurance, according to a January 2014 ‌Journal of Sport and Human Performance‌ study‌.‌ Competing CrossFitters experienced fewer than 1 injury per 1,000 training hours, according to a June 2015 survey of more than 3,000 CrossFit athletes in ‌BMJ Open Sport and Exercise Medicine‌.
