Listen "S03E112 Is Your CrossFit Gym's Programming Too Hard?"
Episode Synopsis
Coaches David Syvertsen @davesy85 and Sam Rhee @bergencosmetic kick things off by addressing the question many CrossFit athletes ask - can a gym's programming be too hard? It's a delicate balance, one that requires the programs to be challenging yet safe, and above all, enjoyable. Both gyms and individuals play in this puzzle. We caution you not to be offended as we delve into some personal biases and perceptions. Then, we explore how to determine if a CrossFit program is a good fit for a particular gym. It’s not as simple as it seems. How do you tailor programs to the community's specific needs and diverse range of abilities and fitness goals? We examine the pros and cons of outsourcing programming and delve into the critical role a coach plays in this process. We also discuss how to build effective workouts that challenge athletes, deliver value, and foster unity within the gym. Lastly, we look at the importance of athletes understanding their own bias, and how this knowledge can improve their perspective of their gym's programming. We wrap up the episode by discussing the art of scaling workouts and the implications of programming for various ability levels and goals. Whether you're a gym owner, an athlete, or merely someone interested in CrossFit programming, this episode is packed with insights and takeaways. So, gear up for a mind-opening discussion and join us on this exciting journey through the world of gym programming.@crossfitbison @crossfittraining @crossfit @crossfitgames #crossfit #sports #exercise #health #movement #crossfitcoach #agoq #clean #fitness #ItAllStartsHere #CrossFitOpen #CrossFit #CrossFitCommunity @CrossFitAffiliates #supportyourlocalbox #crossfitaffiliate #personalizedfitness
