With the upcoming “CrossFit Season” on the horizon, we are re-initiating regular posts for our movement blog. What we realized a couple months ago is that creating a subsection of our already extensive work for our followers to add to their programming was not only possible but not beneficial.
With that truth in mind, we are posting movement exercises a week designed as “finishers” for the work. So many of you probably just asked how is that different from what it was before? Good question. The work posted on the movement blog will only be positioning work so designed to create strength in varying positions required for the sport of fitness. It will not be for time. It will not be taxing or overly stressful to certain muscle groups. It clearly is not a required piece of the programming but is purely for your benefit should you have the capacity and capability to add it in. If you take a look at the blog right now you’ll see that most of it is static holds and core work designed to build strength in varying positions.
It’s not specifically designed for the gymnastics end of our sport either. It’s designed for overall strength. If you have the capability to complete the short components then we are betting in 3 to 4 weeks you’ll see rapid results.
PS – it’s never too early to get ready for swimsuit season.
