Best Joint supplement for Crossfit? Is Crossfit bad for your joints?
Functional fitness and Crossfit get's a bad wrap for being so harsh on your joints leading to injury.
Crossfit’s exercises originate from the disciplines of gymnastics, weightlifting, sprinting and other high-intensity workouts to improve your cardiovascular and respiratory endurance, strength, flexibility, power, speed and coordination.
However, the large volume of repetitions can be strenuous on your knees, shoulders and other key joints especially when done with heavy weights.
This is where WOD FLEX comes in!
WOD FLEX is a highly effective joint formula packed with 9 active ingredients maintain joint and bone health.
The Tendoforte® collagen in WOD FLEX accelerates the process of joint and tendon regeneration.
Inflammation of the joints can be reduced with the MSM and Celadrin® powder.
We use superior pharmaceutical veg grade Glucosamine HCI which is a more concentrated form of Glucosamine compared to Glucosamine Sulphate, has less sodium & is more naturally stable. We also add Chondroitin Sulphate to our joint protection supplement which works well with Glucosamine HCI to reduce joint space narrowing due to overuse & wear & tear of the joints.
Osteoarthritis is caused by a decrease in the ability of the joints to make collagen. The Tendoforte® collagen contained in WOD FLEX aids with this.
A systematic review & meta-analysis published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that supplementation with boswellia (boswellic acids) demonstrated large and important effects for pain reduction in osteoarthritis.
There have been clinical studies in sport and particularly crossfit athletes proving the effectiveness as an anti-inflammatory and analgesic. Using Ovomet® eggshell membrane to treat pain and stiffness to improve range of motion, as well as other joint function issues in around 50 days.
