Which weight selection do you prefer in CrossFit workouts? They can really impact performance.
1) Free weights (dumbbells, barbells) – for movement freedom and load control.
2) Kettlebells – for dynamic movements and power-conditioning combo.
3) Bodyweight – no equipment needed, can be done anywhere.
Share your reasons for your choice and how you integrate it into your training program. Which method do you think reduces injury risk the most?

I prefer using kettlebells the most because they allow for dynamic strength and conditioning combinations while being gentler on the joints compared to heavy barbell exercises. In my training plan, I use them for moves like snatches and Turkish get-ups, and on high-intensity days, I switch to bodyweight exercises to reduce the risk of injury.
