Intensity!

DSCF4635

How hard do you train? How much do you give?

CrossFit training is brutal, short and fast for the most part. The workouts are typically under 20 minutes and require full force potential to truly receive exceptional results. Do you feel like Robert does after every workout(pictured above): exhausted, beat and finished, or are you preserving fuel in the tank. I know many of us preserve fuel and many of us run on empty upon finishing a WOD. Remember: Train hard, eat well and rest well. Two or three days in a row of CrossFit deserves much needed rest the following day. Trying to train all week with CrossFit or extra activities will only diminish intensity. I believe you may unknowingly develop a mindset of preserving fuel for following days or double stacked workouts in one day, just leave it all at CrossFit.
