#164 - Templates for Group Programs


Listen Later

The programme for a CrossFit affiliate's group class programme versus a CrossFit competitor is obviously going to look different, but does this mean the process for writing the programme has to be any different?

We have spoken a lot on this podcast about the importance of templates, how to structure them and why this is how you should start a programme for a CrossFit competitor, and we have all written programming for a CrossFit affiliate in a similar way.

However, there is still a large portion of affiliate programming that uses a very zoomed out method. This might work for balancing things like modalities and time domains, but it does so without any inherent structure to the training week.

In this episode we talk about where to start when writing a template for a CrossFit affiliate, and how to programme for those who attend every day versus those who attend randomly. Check out the episode to learn more.
