Stamina/Endurance for the CF Athlete

Our coaching methods met with considerable skepticism and criticism until Jason Khalipa demonstrated significant performance improvements at the 2013 Games. This ebook does an excellent job highlighting the on-going 180 degree correction by the CrossFit community towards endurance training. We believe this shift within our community is being driven by evidence based performance improvements. CrossFit athletes must have balance in their stimulus in order to efficiently and effectively maximize adaptation. As example, Rich Froning walked in the Triple 3 event at the 2014 CrossFit Games because his running workouts focused mostly on high intensity. However, speed was not his limiting factor preventing him from maximizing his performance. It was his endurance.
