Are We Getting Intensity Wrong?

Intensity is one of the foundational principles of the CrossFit methodology - but do we actually understand what it means?

In this episode, we unpack intensity in CrossFit land: what it is, what it isn't, and why simply going harder, or doing more, isn't always the answer.

We talk about relative intensity, scaling to preserve stimulus, the relationship between mechanics, consistency and intensity, and the coach's role in helping athletes find, and appropriately push, their threshold.

When should we push an athlete harder? When should we pull them back? Are we actually preserving intensity when we scale? And have we started confusing suffering with intensity?

As always, we're not here because we have all the answers. We're here to ask better questions, challenge our thinking and keep coming back to the CrossFit methodology.

Mechanics → Consistency → Intensity.

Hold the standard.
