Summary
In this episode, Richard Diaz and I talk about one of the most controversial subjects in Crossfit. How do I increase work capacity while training less?? With so many different ideologies circling the sport under so many different coaches — it's really hard to land on one solid piece of information. Everyone has theories, however Rich has more data.
We talk a lot about battling fatigue. We talk a lot about what's truly right by science. And we talk about a new training style that Rich has been working on since he heard about CrossFit. In my honest opinion, his newest theory is the missing piece we've all been looking for. Welcome to one of the moments in sport when everything changes. I'm so excited to be part of it and I'm more excited to drop this episode in your eardrums.
God speed.
