Chasing the Power Ratio

Chasing the Power Ratio



Why we train to maximize the Power to Mass Ratio.

Power = Work over Time

Work = Force x Distance

Condition = To Modify by Training

Power involves more then just this formula entails.
Power is functional strength expressed in terms of acceleration, execution time or velocity in a given motor skill or kinetic chain rather then isolated exercise. Power is to generate/apply force, which requires other key areas of agility, speed, reaction and range of movement.

The benefits of Maximizing Power Ratio
Increasing Power means to increase other areas of motor skill and kinetic movement such as relative strength, speed, agility and range of movement. The training of these key factors goes together to increase both Aerobic and Anaerobic capacity by focusing on the interrelated Energy Systems of the Phosphagen and Fast & Slow Glycolysis.

Regardless of your Goals increasing your power ratio will aid competency in movement and performance.

In order to train for sport or life’s physical tasks the chase to maximize the Power to Mass ratio should be a goal for all.

Why Chase?
Power is elusive, it requries ongoing conditioning or its elements will decline in effectivness.

Crossfit seeks to condition the Power, Relative Strength, Aerobic and Anaerobic capacity of each individual in relation to function within their chosen environment.

What is Crossfit??

Crossfit is about Function!


Crossfit is a foundational Core and Conditioning program that seeks to elicit as broad as adaptation response as possible utilizing training formats derived from gymnastics, Olympic Weight Lifting, Sprinting and Combat disciplines.
We focus on instructing the importance of proper movement through full ranges of motion in functional strength exercises. This produces what we believe to be a fitness level that is highly transferable to all athletic pursuits as well as daily functional physical tasks.

Individuals within the program develop greater understanding of applying force while maximizing strength to weight ratio and functional range of movement. Enhancing individual’s competency in physical tasks by improving Cardiovascular and Respiratory Endurance, Strength, Flexibility, Power, Agility, Coordination and Balance.

What results is the ability to apply strength and power in real world environments and or sports providing either a stand alone conditioning routine or a platform for sport specific performance?

What Crossfit isn’t!
We are not a Sport!
We are not a Hypertrophy or Curves program centered on making you look good in underwear! (Although this may be a result)
We are not Psychiatrists!
We are not a Knitting Group!


So come try an Alternative to machines and pulley systems.
