ABOUT OUR TEAM:
The SWFLCFE Team is a Sports Club hosted by CrossFit Fort Myers LLC. We have a different approach to training for endurance events. AET (Anaerobic Endurance Training) is our specialty. What does this mean? In a nutshell, our endurance athletes train for Power, Speed and Strength while maximizing their Aerobic capacity. We use Olympic Weightlifting, Powerlifting and IWT (Interval Weight Training) techniques to build endurance athletes who are on average MUCH stronger than most!
We feel these elements are more often than not overlooked in the training protocols for endurance athletes, and if they are included do not serve as useful a purpose as they should due to poor exercise selection, programming, technique and/or lack of intensity. Additionally, by using a compressed training cycle of randomized interval, tempo and stamina WOD's (Workout of the Day) we are able to develop Aerobic capacity without the sheer volume demand of traditional LSD (Long Slow Distance) programs.
It is our goal to provide endurance athletes in Southwest Florida a unique opportunity to learn another significant way to effectively train for their respective events that will allow them to: increase strength, power and lean muscle mass; focus on technique based training, rather than sheer volume; learn and improve proper biomechanics of running; reduce chronic inflammatory responses (IT band syndrome, plantar fasciitis, sciatica) and gain back their life outside of training - something many endurance programs will not allow for. Our multi-sport endurance athletes train LESS THAN 10 HRS/WEEK.
