Ongoing Incremental Progression

The focus of CrossFit Conditioning is on individual improvement and progress through efficient movement.The time,loads, Rds and performance of others should be a motivator not a goal to be beaten.
Individual participation and exposure to the experience of the Work Out is the overall goal and from which the benefits will be apparent.

Differentials in Range of Motion

Why" For Time" is relative to the individual.

Power movements of individuals are fixed and different due to the individual’s range of joint motion and Biomechanical structure. To compare from individual to individual has no value in a training format, rather "For Time" is a reference point for determining increased efficiency for that individual in reference to previous attempts.
Velocity is determined by the time taken to complete the movement through that individuals range of motion.
Training using methods that focus on decreasing the time in which the movement is produced by increasing the efficiency and or acceleration of the movement, increases power generation.
Therefore Timing a WorkOut produces a reference point from which to determine increases in power output when compared to future attempts.

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.

Lactate Threshold

What is it?
When the body is at rest or at regular work conditions, your metabolic rate creates a balance between lactate production and blood lactate removal. The Lactate Threshold (the Margin in which your body can no longer remove lactate as fast as it is produced) directly refers to exercise stress, which produces a rapid increase in blood lactate and a decreased or less then efficient lactate removal.

Protocols that combine high volume (high work capacity), maximal steady –state training (Fluctuating Intensity Work) and Interval Training (high Intensity Work) result in increased Lactate Threshold.

Generally thought to be a concern for Power Athletes Lactate Threshold training (conditioning to improve the bodies ability to balance blood lactate production and removal during times of exercise stress) can dramatically improve performance in endurance events as will as power orientated events.

For the Generalist?
So what’s it all mean to me Recreational Jo?

Protocols that focus on Lactate Threshold improvement create a time efficient format that has multiple impacts on every aspect of fitness. Providing a board-reaching program in minimal time. That with appropriate nutrition and recovery techniques, individuals are left with an ideal conditioning structure that produces abilities and allows time to be applied to other disciplines.

Adaptations

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.

How to use the WODs?(Work Out of the Day)
CFS will post the HQ WOD, ENDURANCE WOD, and STRENGTH WOD
Allowing individuals for cycling through different focus within there training or specific focus for events.

CF HQ WOD
Can be used as a stand alone conditioning unit that can integrated into your own sport specific training.HQ WOD give you a all round basis of strength and conditioning. Broad by design it generally demands a degree of skill acquirement and increases in movement efficiency over a initial period.

ENDURANCE WOD
Created for those with an Endurance bias as a focus for training.
The Endurance WOD is designed to be completed in conjunction with the CFHQ WOD giving specific endurance training in High intensity format.If you have Tri/ Cycling or running as your sport we recommend you try this WOD Endurance. A training split of 4~6 hours between HQ WOD and Endurance WOD is recommended.The aim is efficient use of training time to best equip individuals for endurance events.

STRENGTH WOD
WOD Strength is designed as a stand alone cycle for developing relative strength and improved performance in Clean &Jerk and Snatch lifts. Based around 1RM% of complex lifts and ballistic lifts it will also give you a progressive template for improving your 1RM in basic Lifts. A byproduct can be Mass Gain (largely dependent on nutrition) however its focus is improve strength.
Small 10min in duration Metabolic Conditioning circuits can be used in conjunction with the WOD Strength to maintain strength and conditioning without taking away from progressive strength gains.
If using WOD Strength in conjunction with HQ WOD it is best to scale one or the other in relation to your goals of either strength gains or increased anaerobic conditioning.

1) either measured on a watch/computer (i.e., Garmin, Polar, bike computer, compu trainer or pool markers) and stopping each successive 10 meters by moving forward. This is the way that it should be done for cycling or swimming. Or 2) set up 2 cones 10 meters a part, and add one return trip each minute on the minute... Either way, you are to add 10 meters each round until you can no longer continue.

Short Change

Often individuals take the Met Con WODs as a Time based Competitions or races with the fastest time winning.
Sure, let the person beside you motivate you to perform better, but the real goal of recording times is to monitor improvements in efficiency of movement under stress against that individual’s previous time.
When the Fastest Time becomes the overriding goal, the WO and more importantly the quality of the movement suffers. Individuals don’t quite reach the depth they could in the squat, don’t quite top out in the push up, and heaven forbid they even skip "reps.

The WODs are designed to create a training effect (conditioning) by working through a range of movement in good form at a relatively high intensity.
Reduce the range of movement or the quality of the technique in order to maximize the intensity and you will only cheat yourself out of valuable conditioning. The WOD isn’t about winning its about maximizing work capacity. Develop fluid movement through good form and correct ROM, then ratchet up the intensity to work for Personal Best times.

Growth Hormone

1.GH is released in 10-20 pulses throughout the day instead of in a steady stream.

2. The largest daily pulse of GH takes place during the beginning stages of sleep.

3. Anaerobic exercise (and the lactic acid it produces) seems to be linked to an increased pulse of GH that can last for about 2 hours after exercise. Many people state that 10-15 minutes of intense anaerobic exercise can create a large surge of GH.

4. Eating protein has been linked to an increased pulse of GH. There are many secretagogue products that claim to help release GH and are usually taken before exercise, after exercise, and/or before going to bed for the night.

5. Eating carbohydrates creates a surge of insulin which apparently dampens the release of GH. Many experts recommend to avoid eating carbs for 2 hours after exercise in order to not diminish the GH surge caused from exercise.

6. Fasting is said to be linked with an increased release of GH.

7. A stress response (including the stress response to long endurance exercise) has been said to dampen the release of GH

AMRAP
(Time) For Rds

“For Rounds” is a method of scoring while increasing work capacity of a couplet or triplet of movements within a set time period.
1 Rds is designated to be a series of exercises of which the reps must be accounted for in sequence before moving on to repeat next round.
For Example
“Cindy”
1 Rd = 5 Chin Ups followed by 10 Push Ups followed by 15 Squats

It does not matter if you are need to break the reps into smaller sets or units to complete the number given, as long as you complete the reps before moving on to the next exercise. You may rest as needed.

20mins For Rds (The Time Factor)
You now have the influence of time placed on the completion of Rds. You may rest as needed but the time will keep on trucking. Creating an Intensity level as you move to finish as many Rds possible in good form; within the allotted time period.

Time for Rds gives you a referable result, if you achieve more Rds for the period on next attempt, then your work capacity and efficiency of movement has increased.

Don’t under estimate Time for Rds, these WODs can be very punishing Work Outs.
So Jump in and enjoy a new method of attrition.

Chasing the Power Ratio

Why we train to maximize the Power to Mass Ratio.

Power = Work/Time
Work = Force x distance

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.
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.

Anaerobic Adaptations

Training with continuous prolonged exercise at Anaerobic Threshold intensity level is an effective training method to enhance the oxidative capacity of slow twitch fibers. In addition interval training at an intensity level greater than or equal to VO2 Maxis an effective method to enhance the oxidative capacity of fast twitch fibers. When this type of interval training is used after the preliminary preparation of slow twitch fibers(through prolonged exercise at anaerobic threshold level)it also becomes a method of improving the athletes aerobic capacities with the same effectiveness as the continuous prolonged exercises training.

This is the main focus for that day and is set out in a task completion format.WODs are only the recommended focus for that day and do not include a warm up or cool down nor skill or technique issues however we recommend your WOD incorporate these elements.

WOD as Rxed?
The work out of the day as prescribed or as recommended is to complete the WO as per the instructions.

Can't do the WOD as Rxed?
Can't complete due to technique, equipment,volume,load etc. Then scale the WOD so that it is achievable within a time frame of 45mins.

Scale for completion.
Reduce volume or loads so you can complete the WOD with in 45min

An Idea

Imagine an idea that propels athletes and soldiers alike to seek even higher base levels of competency.
Imagine an idea that is so open source nimble, and ever self correcting, self improving in its daily application that it doesn't risk irrelevancy.
Imagine an idea that changes they way the health care rehabilitation industry (physical therapy) organizes and implements its care.
Imagine an idea that carries such self evident truth with it that thousands of people spontaneously form community and fellowship.
Crossfit promotes daily self competition, self reflection, and self refinement.

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.

Attrition

The CrossFit method places individuals into routines that impose pressure to perform against time or loads. Tasks are set, and the goal is to complete them in best time, best form, best load possible. At some stage regardless of previous experience, fitness levels etc, attrition sets in.

Attrition and fatigue cause people to access more then just muscular actions. You will have to "Dig Deep" and put some mental determination into the task at hand. This psychological effect can be just as important as the effect of the routine on your CV System.
There are times in sport and life that individuals are placed in situations that are uncomfortable, difficult perhaps dangerous and regardless of experience, aptitude or intelligence you will have to grit it out or quit.
Rarely in Gym based fitness programs is there this type of necessity.
Pushing yourself through training that stimulates pressured performance is seen as "Character Building" in common wisdom. CrossFit brings that to your gym routine and beyond.
A conditioning routine without the presence of some kind of attrition based training format robs participants of the important aspect of psychological conditioning.
