Nothing will improve your ability to be punched in the face (can't really train for that, you either have a chin or don't). But you can help your core to take the body shots.
I was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt until I read this absolute drivel. You can't hide the fact that crossfit has nothing to offer, absolutely nothing whatsoever, to a track and field...
