RESUMO Introdução: O CrossFit foi criado para desenvolver as habilidades físicas e motoras de atletas de todas as categorias, visando o limite físico de cada praticante, de acordo com sua capacidade tônica. Objetivos: Considerando que a busca desses limites tem acarretado cada vez mais lesões nos praticantes, este estudo visou estabelecer o grau de dor e a região anatômica afetada decorrentes do CrossFit na cidade de Alfenas. Métodos: Para tal, foi usado o diagrama de Corlett associado à Escala Visual Analógica, que varia de 0 a 10. Três academias de CrossFit da cidade de Alfenas foram visitadas e os frequentadores foram convidados a participar desta pesquisa e todos que concordaram em participar (109) assinaram o termo de consentimento livre esclarecido. Resultados: Do total de entrevistados, 86,63% relataram ter algum tipo de dor na prática diária de CrossFit. Do total de entrevistados que apresentaram dor, 56,68% eram mulheres e 43,32% homens. Entre os três locais de maior prevalência de dor destacaram-se ombros, 51,37%; parte inferior das costas/do dorso, 44,03%; joelho, 40,36%. Foi aplicado o teste ANOVA One Way com p ≤ 0,05 e não houve diferença estatística entre os grupos de dor (dor no tronco, dor no membro direito e dor no membro esquerdo). Conclusão: Ao aplicar o diagrama de Corlett para verificar o grau de dor e a região anatômica nos praticantes de CrossFit da cidade de Alfenas, evidenciou-se que o CrossFit é um esporte que, por exigir muito dos praticantes, acaba acarretando dores de moderada a grave, principalmente nas regiões do ombro, lombar e do joelho. Nível de evidência II; Estudo retrospectivo.
Introduction: CrossFit was created to develop the physical and motor skills of athletes in all categories, aiming for the physical limit of everyone who practices it, in accordance with their toning capacity. Objectives: Considering that the quest for these limits has resulted in an increasing number of CrossFitter injuries, the objective of this study was to define the levels of pain and the anatomical regions affected among CrossFitters in the city of Alfenas. Methods: The Corlett diagram was used in association with the Visual Analog Scale, which ranges from 1 to 10. Three CrossFit gyms in the city of Alfenas were visited and their CrossFitters were invited to participate in this research. Those who agreed to participate (109) signed the informed consent form. Results: Of the total number of participants interviewed, 86.63% reported having some type of pain in their daily CrossFit routine. Of the total number of respondents who experienced pain, 56.68% were women and 43.32% were men. The three areas that stand out with the highest prevalence of pain were shoulders at 51.37%, the lower back at 44.03%, and the knees at 40.36%. The One-way ANOVA test was applied with p≤ 0.05 and there was no statistical difference between the pain groups (trunk pain, right limb pain, and left limb pain). Conclusion: When we applied the Corlett diagram to verify the degree and anatomical regions of pain in CrossFitters in the city of Alfenas, it was evident that CrossFit is a sport that, by demanding a lot from those who practice it, ends up causing moderate to severe pain, especially in the shoulder, lumbar, and knee regions. Level of evidence II; Retrospective study.
