Summary:

Overview of CrossFit's Approach to Fitness: CrossFit's goal is to develop a broad, general, and inclusive fitness program that prepares trainees for any physical contingency, including the unknown and unknowable. Their prescription is constantly varied, high-intensity functional movements that develop 10 key physical skills: cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy.
CrossFit's Methodology and Implementation: CrossFit's methodology is entirely empirical, based on measurable, observable, and repeatable data. They embrace an "open source" approach, publicly posting workouts and performance data to enable a collaborative community that can advance the science of human performance. CrossFit is structured as a sport, with the use of whiteboards, clocks, scores, and competition to drive high-intensity training.
Defining Fitness and Health: CrossFit views fitness and health as overlapping constructs, represented on a continuum from sickness to wellness to exceptional fitness. They measure fitness by an individual's work capacity across broad time and modal domains, which can be plotted as the area under a power-duration curve. This metric encompasses the balanced development of the three primary metabolic pathways (phosphagen, glycolytic, and oxidative).
CrossFit's Training Modalities: CrossFit's training program integrates metabolic conditioning (cardio), gymnastics, and Olympic weightlifting to develop well-rounded fitness. They emphasize the importance of technique and form in executing functional movements, and use interval training to develop power and work capacity across all three energy systems.
Scalability and Applicability: CrossFit's training methods are scalable to individuals of all fitness levels, from sedentary and elderly populations to elite athletes. The same core programming can be adapted by adjusting load and intensity to meet the needs of each person, with the goal of developing broad, general, and inclusive fitness.
