Body Weight and Strength
In the realm of General Physical Preparedness Training, Strength is always relative to the BW of the Trainee. The focus of a training format is to make improvements of people’s power,strength and work capacity. Training loads must be calculated in relation to the individuals Body mass.
Need Competition? Then choose your sport and apply your strength and power.
The application of that strength or power is what matters in competition and requires skill and agility. Such Aspects are rarely seen trained in Gyms.

What about Form?
Form and technique will suffer when going for a best time,however generally it is recommended that beginners concentrate on form and simply allow time to tick by,this will maintain the intensity of the WO in its own right. As your skill level increases then with correct scaling of reps and weights,"For Best Time" can be attempted.However "Best Times" usually accompany repetition's of a WO due to familiarity and improved technique,regardless of whether its an official attempt or not.

Supplements
Supplements are just that, a supplement to your food intake.
It is wise to first clean up your lifestyle and dietary influences before embarking (and dropping a load of cash) on a large intake of isolated vitamins minerals and amino acids.
On achieving a reasonable diet that applies to your lifestyle you should then honestly access your goals with regards to fitness and health.
Many supplement have specific results and should only be used for narrow range of goals. Either way supplements will work best applied on top of a clean diet and lifestyle practices. They are not a crutch or band-aid method.
Do you have specific sports related goals?
Are health, vitality and enjoyment of a variety of pastimes important?
Are your goals competition based or body image based?
If you have sport specific goals then supplements should be based around aiding performance mainly in the form of recovery from training sessions.
If however your goals are for increased muscle mass then recovery and maximizing calorie intake will be an over riding goal of your diet and supplement choice.
If health and vitality are the primary objectives then perhaps consider concentrating on a clean diet, meditative and relaxation practices to produce the results.
Approach Supplements cautiously for sake of your wallet and your health, after you have attempted to clean up your diet and lifestyle practices. Realistically access your goals and research objectively as possible the available aids that are compatible with your goals.
What you require may not be just a pill or powder.

Core Strength and Conditioning
This phrase has a double meaning
1. The CrossFit method seeks to create a foundation base line level of fitness that has application to all athletic past times.
2. The CrossFit Method seeks to condition and strengthen the Core Muscles.
Efficient and productive human movement relies on extension and flexion of the hips and extension flexion and rotation of the trunk and torso, ”the core muscles”. These movements originate at the core and are relayed at increasing velocities to the extremities.
The CrossFit Method strengthens the Core Muscles through mixed modality cross training involving functional movement at high intensities, coupled with a core curriculum that emphasizes learning new skills and sports to assist in improving and applying their fitness conditioning.

General Physical Preparedness = GPP
This refers to a level of fitness needed to be prepared for a variety of contingencies. In close relation to Functional Fitness practices, GPP is to be conditioned at a base level of competency within fitness activities. This GPP has implications for any individual who has physical demands placed unpin them with little preparation time.
What role does GPP serve?
GPP serves as a multi faceted component of training to maintain and perfect skills that serve in auxiliary roles in life and sport.
In relation to an Athlete a major role of GPP is to form, strengthen or restore skills that play an important but secondary role to your sport. GPP seeks to increase and maintain overall work capacity in areas that are under developed. GPP can expose individuals to new skills and push individuals mentally via challenging protocols. GPP can uncover weakness and promote balance. GPP can provide important off-season variety or unloads phases after focus stages.
In the average person GPP seeks to condition across a diverse range of activities. GPP produces increased work capacity across a broad range of disciplines and skills and lays a foundation for healthy movement patterns. A strong base of GPP leads to fast adaptation process to unfamiliar or unaccustomed physical and mental demands.

"For Time" indicates that the WOD will be timed from beginning until completion of all tasks set out.
Why Time a Work Out?
To create a Sense of Urgency: Life and Sport require actions to be completed with the pressure of time placed upon results.The Crossfit Method believes in Intensity,load and Volume over duration. In order to elicit pressure and maintain intensity within a Work Out, CrossFit WODs add the aspect of performing against the clock.
This "time" becomes a performance reference point when repeating the same workout in the future and gives individuals a goal to work towards.Bettering your Time.
Timing a WO elicits Power Generation.
Power=[Force X Distance]/Time.
By challenging Power Output we fatigue the Systems of the Human Body.Increasing an individuals power output can promote increases in absolute and relative strength, speed and endurance.
Timing a Work Out is all about You!
No one else,and the clock doesn't lie.
Want a faster time then suck in some O2 and crank another rep.
Responsibility Sucks doesn't it!

Our commitment to evidence-based fitness, publicly posting performance data, co-developing our program in collaboration with other coaches, and our open-source charter in general has well positioned us to garner important lessons from our program—to learn precisely and accurately, that is, about the adaptations elicited by CrossFit programming. What we’ve discovered is that CrossFit increases work capacity across broad time and modal domains. This is a discovery of great import and has come to motivate our programming and refocus our efforts. This far-reaching increase in work capacity supports our initially stated aims of building a broad, general, and inclusive fitness program. It also explains the wide variety of sport demands met by CrossFit as evidenced by our deep penetration among diverse sports and endeavors. We’ve come to see increased work capacity as the holy grail of performance improvement and all other common metrics like VO2 max, lactate threshold, body composition, and even strength and flexibility as being correlates—derivatives, even. We’d not trade improvements in any other fitness metric for a decrease in work capacity.
