After working with our classes yesterday, it was apparent that many athletes that have not sprinted in the past, have ever learned sprint techniques such as the arm -leg rhythm, digphaze or XLR8 phaze. See this video to learn a little more about sprinting. You might be asking, what value is there for me to sprint in my training? Sprinting in various types of movements at maximum efforts has been shown to increase hormonal production for androgenic growth of muscle. It also develops power in the hips and upper body and improves anaerobic and aerobic capacity. (the language in the video does no represent the views of this blog)

Expanding our Horizons

Whether you are a world class athlete or just an athlete that wants to look good and be fit, expanding our horizons has a powerful affect. The very spirit of CrossFit training philosophy is to be generally physically prepared (GPP). 

This does not necessarily mean that we can be the best at all, but more importantly that we excel at what we are best in, and also expand our capacities into athletic arenas where we know we might struggle. It is this struggle, the experiencing of the new, and the test of the unknown that does something to your sense of self and capacity that no other venue can do! It is easy and comfortable to do the same thing, be tested by the same regime, and not consider the new, but it is "best" to test your own sense of capacity and who knows you might find a new passion.

Why I waited so long to try a triathlon, or many of the other things that I have recently experienced, I don't know? But one thing I do now, there is no better time than the present. And the present is now! So, go out and have yourself some fun and test your capacities and boundaries. You just might find that you like it...

If you compete in an event, we want to know about it. Also, if you have an interest in training in our ATO2 CrossFit Endurance Program, drop us a line.
