CrossFit - Programming Part 6

This is the sixth and concluding part of the Programming lecture from the CrossFit Level 1 certification seminar at CrossFit One World in Union City, CA on May 11, 2008.
Dave Castro covers a few scaling options before addressing the three-on, one-off cycle of training, which maximizes power output for conditioned athletes, and when and why alternatives should be considered. He also talks about missing workouts without worrying about making them up.

Awesome series of video. Really good to have a better understanding of what goes on "behind the curtain."

I'm shocked that so few people have seen this video. It is foundational stuff for sure but imagine DC doing a CrossFit seminar for newbs now!

[@samuele.marcora]

Exactly. People would pay 1000 dollars for that

The science is not just the explanation "who cares about it". Understanding how the body responds to exercise, the psychology of exercise, the biomechanics etc. will improve programming as well. Programming should be an evidence-based "art". Would you go to a doctor of the middle ages who did not know how the human body works? I m sure he had plenty of art based on experience, but I m equally sure most people would not go to such doctor these days. We should use the science to improve programming
