CrossFit: The Value of CrossFit to Athletes

Crossfit: A training tool for athletes?

Coach Joe Cebula of CrossFit Twin Cities joined us to discuss the training modalities used by CrossFit and how they can benefit your development. He spoke about the varied training and high intensity means of CrossFit. The use of exercises from gymnastics, track, weightlifting, and many others are used in one workout to create the high intensity.  The result of the training is a person who is good in many areas, but not great in one particular action.

The end game is make sure you are looking for all around training, not speed specific or power specific.  The workouts will not be specific enough to develop these particular activities.  On the other hand, looking for general athletic training and a mental challenge, CrossFit will match your goals and you will find the workouts to be mentally, as well as, physically challenging.
