Prior to the start of the 2023 competitive season, the Adaptive division underwent a notable restructuring. Adaptive division criteria were re-evaluated and updated, while verification standards were designed to ensure that athletes with similar abilities were competing in appropriate divisions.

Additionally, the Adaptive division formerly referred to as “Neuromuscular” was renamed Multi Extremity. The change, according to CrossFit, was made “to eliminate confusion since the previous name was based on the origin of the impairment … The name change better suits the abilities of the athletes represented in the division.”
