Last week on episode 135 of the Corpus Animus Podcast, TTT Coaches Brannen Dorman & Kyle Ruth discussed ways to upgrade your endurance for CrossFit. During that episode we asked you to leave us some questions in the comments, and on this episode we dive and answer some. While the actual questions were more wordy, the basic gist of the questions are the following: What are some effective ways to improve endurance for CrossFit? Is there a specific formula for incorporating endurance training into a CrossFit program? How can I balance endurance training with other aspects of CrossFit? What are the key considerations when programming endurance workouts for CrossFit athletes? Should I prioritize long-duration workouts or focus on interval training for endurance? Are there any specific workouts or protocols that can help improve endurance for CrossFit competitions? How can I train for the unknown and varied nature of CrossFit? Is it beneficial to test and retest specific CrossFit workouts to measure progress? What are the details of the upcoming 12-mile ruck and how can I participate?

The podcast discusses various aspects of endurance in physical fitness, including cardiovascular system and vascular endurance. The speakers share their personal experiences with endurance training and the importance of technique and movement efficiency. They explore the relationship between endurance and movement economy in CrossFit and the challenges of building endurance for athletes from power-based backgrounds. The significance of cardio respiratory endurance and movement economy for improved endurance is highlighted. They also discuss the importance of addressing movement and strength limitations, as well as building both strength and speed for success in CrossFit. Additionally, they provide insights on building endurance for athletes who already have a strong base.
