Has anyone ever tried the CrossFit Endurance program? (www.crossfitendurance.com)
I've been doing CrossFit for about a year and just got back into swimming recently. I'm considering giving up my long swim practices for CFE and doing the single sport swim program from their site.
I'd love to hear what anyone thinks about the program, especially if you've ever tried it.
Thanks! :)
Crossfit will make you faster at crossfit, and stuff like fitness testing done for instance, by the military. In the water it might also assist a non-swimmer to endure struggling prior to drowning. Nevertheless, it's nothing more than an efficient overall HIT program.
Except CrossFit is more about conditioning than HIT. There don't seem to be any slow recovery periods between hard efforts.
I'm currently trying to cross train less -- have cut a bit of biking, cut back lifting and eliminated bikram yoga. I seem to be getting faster in the pool. Though after awhile, I can see the need for some diversity just for a mental break.
