The name metcon comes from &#8216;Metabolic conditioning&#8217;. and usually consists of two or three exercises, and can be described as the pinnacle of training. It&#8217;s where you challenge yourself and test your limits. Before a metcon, we warm up with dynamic mobility exercises and practice technique in gymnastics and weightlifting elements, e.g., the &#8220;weightlifting&#8221; exercise. handstand, pull-ups or barbell deadlifts.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=&#8221;transparent&#8221; border_style=&#8221;&#8221; up=&#8221;35&#8243; down=&#8221;0&#8243;][vc_column_text]Metcon is intensive and has a clear goal &#8211; to increase your work capacity. During a Metcon you can either perform a given work as fast as possible, or perform as much work as possible in a given time &#8211; AMRAP (As Many Rounds As Possible). In a Metcon, there are clear criteria for weight, execution, sets and number of repetitions. The data we receive allows us to clearly see the individual&#8217;s physical capacity, and we can also repeat your metcon again to see the evolution.<br \/>\nTwo examples of classic metcons are Cindy which is a 20 minute AMRAP of 5 Pull-ups, 10 Push-ups and 15 Squats, or Grace which is a shorter wod consisting of 30 free weights and thrusts of 60kg for men and 40kg for women.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=&#8221;transparent&#8221; border_style=&#8221;&#8221; up=&#8221;35&#8243; down=&#8221;0&#8243;][vc_column_text]Anyone starting CrossFit is wise to &#8220;scale&#8221; the load initially.
