Is CrossFit safe over 40?

Yes. CrossFit is safe over 40 when workouts are coached and scaled to your body. Your 40s are an ideal time to build strength, since resistance training helps protect muscle, bone density, and metabolism as they naturally decline. The key is smart scaling, good coaching, and progressing gradually.

This is a direct answer from the CrossFit BC coaching team. Short version first, then the detail and the local context for training in Vancouver. If you want the same answer applied to your own situation, a coach will walk through it with you in person.
