CrossFit’s definitions of fitness is “increased work capacity across broad time, modal domains.” This translates into your ability to complete workouts with all kinds of movements, in short duration, long duration, and throughout your life. One of the tools for accomplishing this broad and inclusive fitness is variance. We vary the movements, the rep scheme, the load, the duration, etc.
What about other factors that may occur outside of the gym such as how much time has passed since your last meal, or when you practice other sports relative to your work out? Do you work out at the same time every day? The New York Times suggests that although we are programmed to perform best in the evening, but we can adapt to peak performance at any time of day as long as we practice working out at that time. I suggest you switch it up!
