There are 5 primary focuses and general fitness goals under the Athletic Fitness path:

Functional Strength

The functional focus is going to provide workouts that are meant to improve overall movement and emphasize the use of Olympic weightlifting movements (snatch, cleans, jerks, etc.)

This focus is for people that want to improve their coordination and functionality of their body for daily life. This program combines Olympic weightlifting with plyometric, hypertrophy, and cardio training. It will help you feel powerful and athletic while improving fitness and longevity.

Athletic Muscle

The muscle focus is going to provide a program focusing on hypertrophy of the upper and lower body with high volume and various unique exercises to keep training engaging and effective, all while not ignoring athleticism and fitness.

Athletic Strength

The strength focus is going to provide a program that focuses on full-body strength development, specifically with the bench press, squat, and deadlift. However, it is more than a powerlifting program; it includes athletic, explosive, and cardio training.

Total Athletic Fitness focus

This program combines four programs into one, letting you pick from four different workout focuses including strength, hypertrophy, explosiveness, and endurance. It is recommended to choose one workout to perform each day, depending on your interests and goals for that day.

Note: this is the program we recommend for Crossfit athletes using Peak Strength.
