CrossFit Endurance for the Tactical Athlete

This blog is geared towards the Tactical Athlete,( Military,LEO,Fire). These professions all have very demanding jobs that require a high level of aerobic (with O2) and anaerobic(w/out O2) fitness. A good example of a tactical athlete is a police officer. A police officer may be required to go from an environment of sitting in a patrol car for x amount of hours to a dead sprint. The police officer needs to be conditioned to react to sudden changes in his or her surroundings without hesitation. The globo gym model of running endless miles on a treadmill followed by performing three sets of biceps curls for ten reps is an incomplete program. This kind of programming does not prepare the Tactical Athlete properly. A Tactical Athlete's primary concern should be performance, not how good their physique is. CrossFit provides constantly varied movements in an ever changing environment. CrossFit pushes the body both mentally and physically. CrossFit programming is the ideal solution for the Law Enforcement Officer. CrossFit Endurance focuses more on the Metabolic Conditioning of an athlete versus CrossFit. My goal with CrossFit Endurance Middle Tennessee is to also provide Tactical Athletes with programming that will give them an edge in the real world.
