"For those of us that make it past the early, formative phases of training and continue our strength and conditioning into it’s maturity (long term training as a lifestyle), there are many ups and downs. Most people won’t do anything that takes committed hard work to keep progressing for very long i.e more than 6 months-1 year. Once the honeymoon phase is over and the PR’s and remarkable progress stop coming every time you train, it’s much easier to switch to the next activity. So that takes care of 80% of folks and leaves the remaining 20% (us).I have noticed in my own training which admittedly is quite short (CrossFit for the last 4.5 years but much longer if you include martial arts) some noteworthy phases or things worth mentioning, all of which I have experienced. I’ll use CrossFit training as an example since we are a CrossFit Gym, but I’m certain it applies to other disciplines and areas of life."- See more at:http://paleomagonline.com/evolution-of-a-crossfitter/#sthash.gSaQk2Xz.dpufStrength: find 1 rep max hang snatchWOD: 3 rounds400 m run7 power cleans21 burpeesRXC:155/105,RX:135/95,L3:75,L2:95/65,L1:65/45[learn_more caption="NEWS"]***Do you have UnitedHealthCare for your health insurance?
