This is often done during the off season without an emphasis on the sport specific demands.  GPP historically was understood by the strength and conditioning community as playing a key role in preparing athletes for competition and improving injury prevention. The focus was normally a sport and the GPP portion of training served its purpose in playing a supportive role. You may or may not be aware of this, but Crossfit is a GPP strength and conditioning program without the assumption of training for a sport.  Where does that leave us Crossfitters?  Right smack dab in the middle of the most powerful and profound way to train your body... IF the goal is increased strength and work capacity across broad time domains and rep ranges. If you play a sport then Crossfit prepares you physically to engage with your sport more effectively. If you sport is just LIFE, then your training rhythm allows you to encounter any physical tasks life throws at you with a greater degree of physical preparedness.
