Bar Gazing

When we do our circuits the intensity is often so high that people tend to try and rest for extended of periods of time when transitioning between exercises. It is very common to see people just staring at the bar in between exercises. In the Crossfit community I have seen this called Bar Gazing. The truth is that in most of these circuits if you just transition from one exercise to the next without resting it will not really be that much harder than if you rested for 30 seconds. You are not going to catch your breath in the 30 seconds of rest that you take so the better choice is to keep pushing and get it over with. Remember, that intensity is where the results are and if you are wasting time staring at the bar then the intensity is not going to be as high. Just think of how much time is wasted in your circuits by Bar Gazing.
