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.GPP has implications for any individual who has physical demands placed unpon 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.

Fit or CrossFit?
CrossFit is a base strength and conditioning format seeking to be as broad and functional as possible.
The primary focus is to develop increases in relative strength to body weight ratio and create greater efficiency within the anaerobic system.
CrossFit will work your weaknesses and challenge you with new skills. Developing a highly transferable form of fitness that can be a stand alone program or base conditioning for sport specific goals.

WOD stands for Work Out of the Day.
This is the main focus for that day and is set out in a task completion format.WODs are 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 written or as recommended is to complete the task 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.
So you can get through the WOD
Scale for Effect

Want to get better at a Sport then at some stage you will have to devote more time to that specific sport skill set and movement patterns. Depending on your present skill level improvement may require stages of focus to progress efficiently.
CrossFit provides a base line conditioning that is ideal for most power sports. That said CrossFit programming would need to tweaked to suit and be compatible with on going sport specific skill development just as CrossFit is scaled to suit the individual. Crossfit Conditioning will only complement SSP by maintaining and/or increasing work capacity and prevent possible injuries.

Swim, Bike, Run, C2, Or sport of choice.
At the Top of every Hour for 24/12/6/4 Hours, Do 10 Minutes of Maximum Distance Possible, Rest 50min and repeat for 24 Hours
Use the 50min between every effort to eat, sleep and recover.
STRENGTH WOD
Back squat
Max
Snatch
lift according to how you feel
Clean & jerk
lift according to how you feel
Snatch/CJ: Take singles or doubles at whatever weight feels good today, even if it's 40-50%. Spend 15-30 minutes with each movement and don't worry about pushing the weight.
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.

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.
