CrossFit Football for CrossFit

John...Let me first say, I love the site and the seminar. I was at your CFFB seminar last year and learned for than I could process. I was really excited about the program and have had great results with our high school athletes and people training for the CrossFit Games. My only issue is implementing it on a mass scale with our general population. I find two lifts and a short metcon take more time than most of our general population CrossFitters have. I should have asked you while I was at the cert but didn’t dawn on me till I got home. How would you structure the program in a general CrossFit setting?...

Starting Strength & Velocity

First off, I would like to thank you for the great programming CFFB provides! I am a huge fan and have been following CrossFit Football programming with a buddy for over a year.

Praise from CrossFitters

If Crossfit is your sport I think one of the ways to approach your year long training program is to use CFF as your strength base in the off season...

Where can I train?

Ironically I can find plenty of gyms here in Phoenix, however, I am having a very difficult time finding a gym that works for CrossFit football.

That year my life took an interesting turn, as most of my friends started doing drugs and partying all the time. And while I made the decision to not be involved with the drinking and partying, I eventually quit playing football...

Revisions

John, Thanks for posting the video of Mat Lalonde's lecture from the AHS. As a member of the scientific research community, it was refreshing listening to arguments for and against the numerous "Paleo-isms" that the CrossFit community likes to preach to promote this style of eating...
