Here’s some food for thought from James FitzGerald, the 2007 CrossFit games champion, about what to consider to maximize the next 320 days of training for next year's CrossFit Open.
Part two of four in our recover series will help you build a program that creates the most potential for balancing a high-quality training stimulus with optimal recovery capacity.

By varying your exercises strategically not only will you gain strength and muscle faster, but you lay the platform for continued long-term progress over successive phases.
