Tracking your results. Continuous improvement is one of the key aspects to CrossFit. Many of us start by scaling the WODs, perhaps using rubber bands to assist us in pull ups, using lighter than RX weights for benchmark WODs, all for a good reason. And even if you’re a seasoned athlete with a solid training background, don’t stop reading, this is about you as well.

1. Why and how to track
your results for CrossFit?

2. Why?

3. Continued improvement might be
hard to notice - graphs make it
visible

4. Share your results to get more
feedback from coaches and peers

5. Graphs give you motivation. No
matter if the trend is going up or
down!

6. Progress is faster when you know
where you are and what your goals
are

7. Find low hanging fruit by
understanding your weaknesses

8. Find more weaknesses (yay!) and
never hide from them anymore

9. How?

10. Adding results is quick and easy from the gym feed,
where results are posted. Everything is always
saved to your personal journal. For all recurring
workouts (strength and benchmark workouts) you
see nice progress charts. This allows you to quickly
see where you’re heading, and how fast.

11. If you choose so, results will
appear only in your personal
journal – if you still want to keep
your workouts secret after
reading this blogpost. You
should consider posting results
publicly in the gym feed, it’s a
big advantage.

13. Build community
Commenting and discussion is in the heart of
WODconnect. You can comment on a result or the
workout and get notified if someone replies to you.
You can cheer your training partners for their
achievements and they will cheer yours. Again, this
gives a huge motivation boost.

14. Build community
We have seen that gyms using their feeds actively
are gyms with great community spirit. Taking the
communication also outside the gym makes the
community stronger, and gives members a
possibility to communicate with other members that
don’t visit the gym at same times.

15. To support coaching
Coaches see a comprehensive picture of their
members’ training levels in the gym feed, but also at
an individual level. Coaches have the right to access
your journal and see all the same information about
your workouts, activity and progress. This helps
them to understand your current strengths, training
load, weaknesses and goals. Scaling workouts more
precisely becomes easier than ever.

16. Get coaching outside the gym
With WODconnect coaching can also continue
outside the gym. During peak hours coaches might
not have time to comment on every performance at
the gym, but they can comment and continue the
discussion on WODconnect later.

17. So that's why
So that’s why. And those are just the main reasons,
leaving out all the other practical things that make
your life easier – class and seminar booking, bill
management etc. All you need to become a better
athlete, while enjoying the process to the fullest!
