Deka Comp Elite is for Elite level CrossFit Competitiors.

Train Hard & Smart with this programming designed to have you perform at your best regardless of the competition.

This program has been proven by some of the best athletes in our sport: Patrick Vellner, Ellie Turner and others.

Train 5 days/week with 1 active recovery day.

2-4 double session/week

We use a 80/20 or 50/50 approach meaning throughout the year your volume and intensity will differ but there will always be a contrast.

80/20 means 80% (roughly) of your training will be done at low intensity but high volume and 20% will be done at high intensity low volume. Example: Monday, LI/HV: 2 training sessions, one of 3-4 hours the next of 1-2 hours. Tuesday, HI/LV: 1 training session, 3 hours (sometimes a secon of 30-60 minutes)

50/50 Means you're getting close to a peak in the cycle.
