BLACKGROUND: Crossfit has been defined as a system of strength and conditioning training based on constantly varied functional exercises performed at high intensity, which has experienced a great increase in popularity. This type of training has been criticized for involving high-intensity technical exercises, increasing the risk of injury when performed inappropriately. OBJECTIVES: To review the characteristics of injuries among Crossfit participants, including type and location according to the movement performed. Secondarily to determine possible risk factors. METHODS: A literature search was performed in the databases PubMed, Web of Science and Sport Discus with the keywords "Crossfit", "injuries" and ""epidemiology" using the Boolean operator AND. The inclusion criteria were: studies published from January 2013 to the present, including CrossFit as an activity, analyzing musculoskeletal injuries (prevalence, incidence, location and/or risk factors) and published in English. RESULTS: Overall, nineteen studies involving a total of 11945 Crossfit practitioners met the inclusion criteria. The most injured areas were shoulder (26%), spine (23%) and knee (14%). Tendinopathies, joint injuries and muscle injuries were the type of injuries most reported by participants. The shoulders and lumbar region were the most commonly injured body regions and most frequently injured during gymnastics and weightlifting movements, respectively. In terms of risk factors associated with injury, studies reported previous injury, experience, weekly training frequency, participation in competitions, and male gender. CONCLUSION: The high prevalence of shoulder and lower back injuries, due to high intensity, high repetition and heavy weight movements, should be considered and taken into account when programming workouts to reduce these injuries and change the perception of these injuries in Crossfit. This review recommends that coaches monitor Crossfit movements to change or improve movements. In addition, physical therapists should perform an assessment of musculoskeletal components and implement preventive training that focuses on reducing injury rates
