Re: Crossfit Endurance article: says endurance athletes don't know how to train [tsmagnum]
I've been in the hockey scene for a while and crossfit has recently tried to tap into that market as well. Ultimately, whether they realize it or not, its a glorified method of work capacity training. You just can't (effectively) mix olympic lifting with energetics. These must be trained separately to obtain maximum gains in aerobic conditioning and power + rate of force development.

Now back to triathlon training. It may not be a bad choice for off season conditioning...if you're into this kinda thing...as long as you realize its limitations and address those variables that it fails to address....regardless, time still must be spent on the roads and in the pool....(or for others, on the computrainer...right Fleck and Dev?)

Hmm...it may also be effective as a training stimulus to "mix things up" within a particular micro/mesocycle...

But ultimately, it failed the ST "sniff test".
