CrossFit is a discipline with high training and nutritional requirements. To date, there is only scarce data evaluating nutrition among CrossFit training and they mostly focus on selected nutritional interventions. Therefore, the purpose of this descriptive study was the assessment of dietary intake and nutritional status in a selected group of CrossFit-trained participants. The study consisted of 62 CrossFit athletes (31 men and 31 women, aged 31.0 ± 5.2 and 30.0 ± 4.3 years, respectively). Body composition was analyzed by electrical bioimpedance. Dietary intake was assessed using a standardized 3-day food record. Body fat percentage for females and males was 20.3 ± 4.3% and 13.7 ± 3.3% respectively. The energy intake in the diet was lower (~1700 kcal in women and ~2300 kcal in men) than the recommended demand. Moreover, low consumption of carbohydrates was stated, as well as an inadequate intake of folate, vitamin E (in women), and minerals, such as Fe and Ca (in women). The energy, carbohydrate, iron, and calcium intake in the CrossFit participants’ diet was too low in comparison to recommendations. It seems justified to educate athletes and coaches about nutritional habits, and individual energy and nutrients requirements.

经交叉训练的个体的饮食摄入量和营养状况评估：一项描述性研究。

CrossFit是一门训练有素且营养要求高的学科。迄今为止，CrossFit培训中仅有很少的数据来评估营养，而这些数据主要集中在特定的营养干预措施上。因此，本描述性研究的目的是评估经过CrossFit培训的一组参与者的饮食摄入量和营养状况。该研究由62位CrossFit运动员组成（分别为31岁的男性和31岁的女性，年龄分别为31.0±5.2和30.0±4.3岁）。通过电生物阻抗分析身体成分。使用标准化的3天食物记录评估饮食摄入量。女性和男性的体脂百分比分别为20.3±4.3％和13.7±3.3％。饮食中的能量摄入低于建议的需求（女性约为1700 kcal，男性约为2300 kcal）。此外，据指出，碳水化合物的消费量较低，叶酸，维生素E（女性）和矿物质如铁和钙的摄入不足（女性）。与建议相比，CrossFit参与者饮食中的能量，碳水化合物，铁和钙的摄入量过低。对运动员和教练进行营养习惯以及个人能量和养分需求的教育似乎是合理的。
