It has been said via other local source that no one can teach the Crossfit Method other than CrossFit Affiliates which is NOT true. The 9.17. If I do not want to affiliate but I am a certified CrossFit trainer, how can I use the name legally? Here is full text from CrossFit HQ website under FAQ section:
9.17. If I do not want to affiliate but I am a certified CrossFit trainer, how can I use the name legally?
You can call yourself a CrossFit-certified trainer and say you use CrossFit methods.
You can state that you are CrossFit certified on your website and business cards.
You cannot use the CrossFit name, slogans, art work or photos in any business or promotional way unless you affiliate. This includes business cards and web sites. Affiliation gives you the legal right to use the CrossFit name for business and/or promotional purposes. (121 Workout chooses NOT to be an Affiliate)
The CrossFit Method's
CrossFit Certified Trainer's Kim and Mike Walker teach the CrossFit Method's 3-day on 1-day off training cycle. Each day CrossFit Certified Trainer' Kim and Mike Walker will also posts a workout on his website. The CrossFit Method's uses a 5-day on 2-day off training cycle. The benefits of training with the group is that you are supervised by CrossFit Certified Trainer's Kim and Mike Walker who will coach you to ensure good technique, not to mention the atmosphere and intensity that just can’t be created any other way with the CrossFit Method's. CrossFit Certified Trainer's Kim and Mike Walker have two Workouts, one is called Metabolic Conditioning the other is Strength. The Metabolic Conditioning workout utilizes many varied exercises to create a workout that will condition the energy systems of human body, Aerobic, Lactic Acid and Phosphocreatine, while placing the muscle & skeletal system under enough stress to cause a positive adaptation. The Strength workout uses, Olympic weightlifting techniques, and other exercises to build base strength needed in all walks of life. So you ask, why do we squat, press, deadlift? Because these lifts work all the muscle and joints in the body, they simulate normal body movement patterns, and they produce strength appropriate to all uses of the muscle and joints. They can be trained fast or slow, done with minimal equipment, and form important components of quick (i.e., Olympic) lifts. They affect the body in a systemic way, producing sufficient stress that a hormonal response is produced to facilitate recovery and adaptation. They are very hard. They produce psychological toughness when trained correctly. And absolutely no one has ever gotten brutally, ungodly strong without doing them.
CrossFit Method's 1st Fitness Standard
There are ten recognized general physical skills. They are cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy. You are as fit as you are competent in each of these ten skills. A regimen develops fitness to the extent that it improves each of these ten skills. Importantly, improvements in endurance, stamina, strength, and flexibility come about through training. Training refers to activity that improves performance through a measurable organic change in the body. By contrast improvements in coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy come about through practice. Practice refers to activity that improves performance through changes in the nervous system. Power and speed are adaptations of both training and practice.
CrossFit Method's 2nd Fitness Standard
The essence of this model is the view that fitness is about performing well at any and every task imaginable. Picture a hopper loaded with an infinite number of physical challenges where no selective mechanism is operative, and being asked to perform fetes randomly drawn from the hopper. This model suggests that your fitness can be measured by your capacity to perform well at these tasks in relation to other individuals. The implication here is that fitness requires an ability to perform well at all tasks, even unfamiliar tasks, tasks combined in infinitely varying combinations. In practice this encourages the athlete to disinvest in any set notions of sets, rest periods, reps, exercises, order of exercises, routines, periodization, etc. Nature frequently provides largely unforeseeable challenges; train for that by striving to keep the training stimulus broad and constantly varied.
CrossFit Method's 3rd Fitness Standard
There are three metabolic pathways that provide the energy for all human action. These “metabolic engines” are known as the phosphagen pathway, the glycolytic pathway, and the oxidative pathway. The first, the phosphagen, dominates the highest-powered activities, those that last less than about ten seconds. The second pathway, the glycolytic, dominates moderate-powered activities, those that last up to several minutes. The third pathway, the oxidative, dominates low-powered activities, those that last in excess of several minutes. Total fitness, the fitness that CrossFit Method promotes and develops, requires competency and training in each of these three pathways or engines. Balancing the effects of these three pathways largely determines the how and why of the metabolic conditioning or “cardio” workout. Favouring one or two to the exclusion of the others and not recognizing the impact of excessive training in the oxidative pathway are arguably the two most common faults in fitness training.
CrossFit Method's are NOT for everyone. Coaches Kim and MikeWalker can modify your workout if need be for a safe effective and fun fitness experience. Please see your Physician before beginning any exercise program. You will be required to fill out a PARQ Form and Waiver before participating in the CrossFit Method's with Crossfit Certified Trainer's Kim and Mike Walker. |
