Crossfit Open Week 1 Wrap Up

By: 0

Hey everyone! Great job thus far on 15.1, and 15.1A. Get some rest until Thursday, and don't get too crazy with the class wods once it gets closer to your Open Wod day. Remember to check out the validation times that we have available here and its important to note. If you would like for one of our coaches to validate you on an off time, remember these rules. 1. Let us know 24 hours in advance of when you would like to perform it, so that the coaches can check their availability. I would hate for someone to assume a coach can do it at a particular time, and for none of us to be available. It throws a wrench in our work schedule through the day adding a bunch of validation times. So please let us know ahead of time if you are interested. 2. The cost to validate a wod on off time is $10 Check out some of the scores below! We are still filling in a few, so don't be hurt if your name isn't on the list! FullSizeRender

Wod 15.1 & 15A, Saturday 2.27.15

By: 0

Before we get down to the workout, lets talk about how the wod will run today. Class Times We will have the normal scheduled wod's at 9:00am, and 11:00am, and another validation time at 12:00pm which is ONLY FOR PEOPLE WHO SIGNED UP FOR THE OPEN. Class Duration The workouts will run long, seeing as how we will be having heats and judges, if you don't have more than an hour, you may want to consider begging to be in the first heat, or just chilling out and understanding that with a workout like this, we may have to run 3 heats, which is 45 minutes without transition time in it of itself. Mindset Come into class today with your brain turned on. I will be moving fast through the warm up, and I want people to hustle so we can get things set up, and get going, and be safe.  I will start the wod off with a little chat about gaming this out, how we are going to warm up, who is going and when. Then we will get after it.
 Rxd Workout 15.1 Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 9 minutes of: 15 toes-to-bars 10 deadlifts (115 / 75 lb.) 5 snatches (115 / 75 lb.) Workout 15.1a 1-rep-max clean and jerk 6-minute time cap Scaled (Scaled Men, Scaled Masters Men 40-44, Scaled Masters Men 45-49, Scaled Masters Men 50-54, Scaled Women, Scaled Masters Women 40-44, Scaled Masters Women 45-49, Scaled Masters Women 50-54) Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 9 minutes of: 15 hanging knee raises 10 deadlifts (85 / 55 lb.) 5 snatches* (85 / 55 lb.) *ground-to-overhead allowed
Notes: These workouts begin with the athlete standing under their pull-up bar with the barbell loaded to the appropriate weight. After 15 toes-to-bars (sit-ups or hanging knee raises for scaled divisions) are completed the athlete will move to the barbell to perform 10 deadlifts followed by 5 snatches. After the last snatch is completed the athlete will move back to the pull-up bar and start their next round. Your score for Workout 15.1 will be the total number of repetitions completed. As soon as the clock reaches 9 minutes and Workout 15.1 is complete, Workout 15.1a will begin with the same running clock. The athlete will have from 9:00 to 15:00 to complete Workout 15.1a. The same barbell must be used for both 15.1 and 15.1a. The athlete must load their own barbell and may not receive assistance. Prior to each lift you must state what weight you are about to attempt. Plates smaller than 1⁄2 lb. may not be used. There is no limit to the number of attempts within the 6-minute time limit. Your score for Workout 15.1a will be the weight (in pounds) that you successfully clean and jerk. Should the athlete choose to redo the workout, you must withdraw your scores for both 15.1 and 15.1a and resubmit both scores from the second attempt. You may not use your score from your first attempt at 15.1 and your score from your second attempt at 15.1a or vice versa. Click here for more specific instructions for the scaled divisions

Want to try to win something? for doing something super easy? Get in on our weekly guessing game! Prize: $10 Rogue Gift Card When does it start: The guessing is officially open as soon as this post goes up each week. So, now! Who can guess: Any current or past members of CrossFit South Bend! Shout out to all of the CFSB Alumnus. How do you get in on the action: To get your guess in, all you have to do is post to the comments section of THIS POST. What you are going to post:
You must enter both... 1. The movement(s) that you think will be released in tonight's wod. 2. Time domain: This will be the tie breaker, you may guess the same as another person, but if you have the closest time domain, you win. You may also guess that the workout will be open ended.
If two people accidentally guess the same movements and time domains, it will go to the person who posted it first. Winner goes to the person that gets the movements correct that week. 
So, the comments section should look like this. Brandon: Thrusters and Burpees – open ended. Savannah: Pull Ups and Box Jumps – 5 minutes Emily C: Pull Ups and box jumps – 7 minutes. Carl: Thrusters – 4 minutes Amy: Cat Stuff - Open ended Robby: Sitting - 35 minutes You get the idea
How many Guesses? You must post ONLY ONE GUESS PER EACH PERSON EACH WEEK. Ready, 3…2…1…Go! What movements might I see in the open? Click here to check out years 2011 - 2014 for an idea of what you might see!
