These 5 CrossFit athletes have shown the world that it’s possible to shape your dream figure by lifting weights.

  1. Can I do Crossfit without bulking up? I have a tendency for big muscles but looking for slimmer look. Could I achieve that with lighter weights or diet?

    1. Hi Leeann, you could do crossfit to lean out, it all depends if your muscles are used to the weight you’ll be using. If you start a new type fo workout or use heavier weight then you’ll experience inflammation and muscle tears. Take a weight that you’re used to using, and focus on higher reps and or circuit training. This will ramp up your metabolism and burn fat. Be careful not to overdo it though – you can easily burn yourself out with these types of workouts. Hope this helps!
