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 and reduces the demands on O2 consumption.

Which means

:Expending less energy and consuming less O2

:Increasing productive work capacity within set time durations

End Result
You get CrossFit
