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.

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.

Everybody Somebody Anybody
"Once upon a time there were four men named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody. There was an important job to be done and everybody was asked to do it. But Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it. But Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about it, because it was everybody's job. Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, and Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody and Nobody did the job that Anybody could have done in the first place. At last report, these four still arguing and the job they were supposed to do still wasn't done."--Author Unknown

Prescription

The CrossFit prescription is “constantly varied, high-intensity, functional movement.” Functional movements are universal motor recruitment patterns; they are performed in a wave of contraction from core to extremity; and they are compound movements—i.e., they are multi-joint. They are natural, effective, and efficient locomotors of body and external objects. But no aspect of functional movements is more important than their capacity to move large loads over long distances, and to do so quickly.

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.

Sport Specific Performance

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 can be adjusted and "tweaked" to suit and aid on going sport specific skill development just as CrossFit is scaled to suit the individual.

Crossfit Conditioning will complement SSP by maintaining and/or increasing work capacity and prevent possible injuries.

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.

(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.

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.

Don’t let this happen to your WOD; don’t short change the training effect in order to beat the gent next to you.

BW 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.

CrossFit :Improving Efficiency of Movement Patterns

Increasing strength and work capacity through CrossFit training increases performance by increasing economy of movement and improving work capacity. Strength gains through such efficiency then cause aerobic activity to represent a lower level of intensity requiring less active muscle to complete the same amount of work. This lower muscle activity demands less ATP and less O2.
Creating greater neural and physical efficiency of movement reduces the demands on O2 consumption.
Which means
:Expending less energy and consuming less O2
:Increasing productive work capacity within set time durations

Hard Bits?

Becoming fit isn't complicated at all physically, you just have to work hard repeatedly on a varied group of key exercises (eg: squats, pull-ups, Olympic lifts, rowing, running, swimming,power based movments),let your body recover from the workouts and improve.

The hard bit is the mental aspect.

CrossFit Programming is mentally challenging and fatiguing. The Intensity and the task completion based protocols will find you wanting to quit, stop or at least rest a little longer. Attrition is not a maybe but a certainty.
Strategies will emerge for your best way through such intensity, but all will take a certain mental commitment and determination that is uncommon in Gym based programs.

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.

Ode to the People who Do.

It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

M.E. Methods

1.Increase the load until you hit failure,make sure you have a spotter to assit to top of movement then work down the weight.
2.Know your Max? Then work up to it and try to complete 5 or more singles with the your Max.
3. After hitting Failure weight, continue to attempt Chins with an assit to the top of movement, Lock off for 2 seconds,work the concentric(eg in the Chin Up the Lowing phase) movement in slow controlled fashion.

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.

Differentials in Range of Motion
Why" For Time" is relative to the individual.

Power movement of individuals are fixed and different due to that individuals range of joint motion.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 Work Out produces a reference point from which to determine increases in power output when compared to future attempts.

Why its not "just a Competition"

Due to the difference in Range of Motion as well as previous specialization, WODs should not be made intensely competitive unless weight divisions and standardized equipment and movement is specified. This would transfer the training into an event,somewhat defeating the purpose of a training format.
This is training for an Effect.

Incremental Progression

The focus is on individual improvement and progress through efficient movement.The time 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.

Power Development

If power performance is to be maximised then both force and velocity components must be trained. Because the movements distance is usually fixed by the athletes ranges of joint motion, velocity is determined by the time taken to complete the movement. Therefore training using methods that decrease the time over which the movement is produced increases the power output.
