Have you ever considered signing up for a CrossFit competition? Why haven't you? If the thought has crossed your mind, then it's time to commit yourself to it. Why? Because the day will come when you look back and say, "I wish I would have." But it's not as easy as paying the fee and showing up on game day.
So what does it take? Do you need to spend hours in the gym each day doing multiple WOD's or hours working on weaknesses? Nah. That's the great thing about our methodology of training; all it takes is constantly varied functional movements executed at high intensity. Sure, if you have glaring weaknesses, they deserve a little extra attention. But, modifying workouts to be heavier or longer will not get you the desired results.
The biggest obstacle to your success is yourself. For instance, your diet may become what holds you back. Maybe you aren't as consistent as you need to be in order to increase your work capacity across broad time and modal domains. Have you forgotten the motto: mechanics, consistency, and then intensity? All of these things will be obstacles to your training and your success at a CrossFit competition.
What can you do to prepare yourself? First, be consistent. Follow a 3on/1off, 2on/1off schedule whenever possible. Eat for health and performance: eat lean meat, veggies, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch, and no sugar and eat these in Zoned proportions. Rest hard on off days – in other words, don't do any physical activities. Work on weaknesses before and after classes. Don't know what your weaknesses are or how to prioritize them? Ask a coach – we know what your weaknesses are.
