  pertinent studies on the main musculoskeletal and traumatic injuries suffered by

  CrossFit practitioners. We used articles from the databases Vhl, SciELO and PubMed,

  published in the last five years (2014 to 2018) that presented Qualis Periódico (A1 to

  B4). Excluding those who were not in Portuguese or English in full form, or who did

  not present relevant results. Twelve papers were found, however, after the application

  of the criteria, 6 articles were left for the analysis. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: the

  prevalence of traumatic injuries in CrossFit practitioners was highlighted, observing

  the main injuries and affected areas. CONCLUSION: It is possible to emphasize a

  significant increase in the risk of injuries, especially in early stages. indicating a need for

  further research to highlight the main traumatic injuries typical in CrossFit practitioners,

  so as to teach, prepare and get used to the most frequent injuries, to treat them in a

  appropriate and specific way, as well as to develop preventive means to reduce them.
