Perpetual Fitness – CrossFit
“Goat” is CrossFit slang for a movement that challenges us (Examples: Double-Unders, Pull-ups, Overhead Squats, Handstand Push-ups).
Today is the perfect opportunity to flip perceived weaknesses into strengths.
*We don’t improve our technique with a high heart rate – that’s what we refer to as “training”.
*Today is geared towards “practice,” dialing in our mechanics with a controlled heart rate.
-As an example, to improve the technique of double-unders, we want to practice at a low-intensity where we can really focus on the mechanics of the hands and the timing of the jump.
*When we couple “training” with “practice” throughout the week in the right doses, we set ourselves on the fast track to results.
Choose two “Goats” to work on, and we’ll alternate between them on each minute. Choose an appropriate rep scheme for each movement that keeps things in the practice intensity range.
For those of you looking for a killer workout, we have some great options for you as well! The point is that we all come in with the intention and willingness to improve.
