    I'm thinking 3 days a week of Crossfit and 2 of lifting. I did a good 5x5 based program before I did CF, I might just cherrypick those workouts on the lifting days. Like, if we did deadlifts in CF, I'll do the non DL workout and vice versa.

    btw....I fell off the wagon a bit. Am getting my butt back in gear logging. I'm also planning on doing a bit of long term planning with my workouts and am going to start adding in strict lifting sessions to complement/enhance the benefits I get from the WODs.

    I'm also looking to add in some complimentary lifting in addition to the WOD's. I'm not sure where to start though! I'm just getting to the point where at 5 days a week I feel like I can add more either before or after the WOD for purely strength/technique goals.

    I'd love to add in pure strength training some days of the week. Need more gains haha.

    5 WODs plus lifting might lead you into overtraining territory. Monitor yourself pretty closely. I've only ventured into overtraining territory once or twice and it did not take long to figure out. I was just exhausted all the time no matter what I ate and how much I slept.
