Domestically, the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) intend to criminalize the CrossFit affiliate model.

CrossFit Inc. and Dr. Tim Noakes have taken on Gatorade and its partners in exercise science. The topic: hydration. CrossFit hosted an international conference on Exercise-Associated Hyponatremia.
