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! :)

  • That just sounds like swim specific drylands to me, not CrossFit. CrossFit doesn't have a monopoly on basic exercises like burpees or squats or jumps. You are right, they don't. I guess they are swimmer specific drylands, with a definite crossfit feel (or what I have come to imagine crossfit as being). We might do excercises more geared towards swimmers, but it will be quick circuit, do as many rounds as possible in X minutes or do X number of rounds of Y number of excercises going :45 on :15 off. Sledgehammer smashers, parallettes, weighted jump rope, these are all things I come to associate with crossfit, not any other dryland experience I ever had previously in swimming. The mix of exercises and style of circuit are crossfit(ish).
