Frequently Asked Questions
What is Crossfit?
From Crossfit.com, “CrossFit is the
principal strength and conditioning program for many police academies and
tactical operations teams, military special operations units, champion martial
artists, and hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide.
Our program delivers a fitness that is, by design, broad, general, and inclusive. Our specialty is not specializing. Combat, survival, many sports, and life reward this kind of fitness and, on average, punish the specialist.
The CrossFit program is designed for universal scalability making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience. We’ve used our same routines for elderly individuals with heart disease and cage fighters one month out from televised bouts. We scale load and intensity; we don’t change programs.
The needs of Olympic athletes and our grandparents differ by degree not kind. Our terrorist hunters, skiers, mountain bike riders and housewives have found their best fitness from the same regimen.”

number is the number of reps per set.
How long should I rest between strength and

do strength training in the same session as met-con training.
