CrossFit is hard. Most people have never trained as hard as we ask you to train. We prefer short and intense workouts because the results are amazing, but the toll on the body and the mind is pretty brutal. Pretty soon, staying home and doing nothing sounds a whole lot better than going to the gym and getting your ass kicked over and over again. With the competitive season winding down, it is that time of year when athletes who have been going hard and burning the candle at both ends may be feeling a bit off. So piling on more is better, right? Use caution - that approach can lead to injury, mental burnout, physical burnout, or even all three. Read what some of the best experts like Freddy Camacho and Mark Sisson have to say to prevent burnout and keep improving. tabatatimes/balance-or-bust-preventing-crossfit-burnout/
