Polarized Training for CrossFit

Periodization is a systematic approach to training that involves the strategic manipulation of volume, intensity, and exercise selection over time to optimize adaptations and peak performance. Rather than training haphazardly, periodization provides a structured blueprint to progress athletes from foundational building blocks to periods of intense specialization and competition readiness. It ensures the body can continually adapt, recover, and advance in strength, power, endurance, and overall athletic capability.
