A few directives for the week.
  1. If you haven't watched the FB live on preparing your week for the crossfit open, go to the members page, click videos, and watch it. If not...
If you are really trying to save yourself for the Friday Night Lights - prep your week accordingly. Monday: regular training day Tuesday: make everything easier than normal, to a point where you have absolutely no problem finishing and simply have some hard breathing at the end. Wednesday: For weightlifting movements, you should leave 5 reps left in the tank for each set. meaning the chosen weight, once you hit your 8 reps, you felt like you could hit another 5 with no problem. Modify the weight and pace for the workout accordingly, don't kill yourself. Thursday: Same rules as Wed, but perhaps even a little easier - another option is to rest this day and move some blood at home, prep, strategize, roll out, etc. If you are doing the open for fun - just train like normal this week :) [/elitetoggle][/eliteaccordion] [eliteaccordion][elitetoggle title="Monday 2.26"] FIT A.

B don't score it on the board...but write up your scaling/weight in your own journal. Long Ass Note for the Day:  A: I don't get into long explanations too much here on the blog, but I may get some questions about this one today - The reason for the difference here is that, when performing Fran it should look at cyclical as possible - or at least ideally when this is being prescribed as a Lactate Endurance piece as it is today, even though for Lactate Endurance I am giving people a generous time cap. When we have many novice athletes within our ranks who cannot cycle the movements fast enough or with enough contractile force to get the response - a better approach to get a closer stimulus for that athlete is to make it more cyclical to ensure the energy system training response.  I'd prefer those doing Fran do not absolutely kill themselves, this is training - not testing today. I know this advice will be ignored but to give you some notes about this lactate piece for both Fit and Comp *I'm looking to develop Power with Oxygen Debt *Working on breathing and for comp - transitional pieces *For this - the effort today would be past the point of aerobic sustainability - maybe being able to hold on for another minute or two if that *85% effort RELATIVE TO THE TIME USED (85% effort/speed for a 30 second run, is much different than 85% effort/speed for a 30 minute run) *I'd prefer when you finish, that the effort doesn't mean collapsing on the ground. Coaches Notes: Make sure the heart rate is up high either by bike/row intervals or thruster + pull up mini sets prior. B. Scaling Options for BSS -Lowering the back foot until its on the ground and performing in place -Placing pads under the knee to limit the range of motion -Performing them next to the pull up rig and hold on to a post for balance/rep support. DB Row - You can bend over in place to do these...or  you can use a bench/box to hinge - coaches choice [/elitetoggle][/eliteaccordion] [eliteaccordion][elitetoggle title="Tuesday 2.6"] FIT A.

B, Total reps. Notes: A. Fit, some of you will have these numbers from last week - build on them. Comp, you are responsible for coming in prepared with your % and numbers you want to hit. This is a training session, if you are a novice, this format is not the best for you to learn Snatches - there is a time and place for that, but this is primarily training the loads, so I would suggest keeping to Fit for the strength. For the handstand holds - if neither of those are an option - perform a plank on hands as long as you can. B.

CrossFit Open 2018

By: 0

Click here to register What is the CrossFit Open? The Open is the first stage of the CrossFit Games season and the largest community event of the year. Every year, hundreds of thousands of athletes come together to compete in the worldwide, online competition. Anyone aged 14 or older can compete. All you have to do is sign up at Games.CrossFit.com and log your score each week. Workouts are released on Thursdays at 5 p.m. PT, and athletes have four days to complete the workout for the week and submit their score. Scores are due before 5 p.m. PT the following Monday. Complete the workouts at a CrossFit affiliate with a judge, or film your effort from anywhere in the world and submit a link as proof. The Open offers two versions of each workout, scaled and Rx'd. The scaled option makes the event all-inclusive. All athletes can compare their results to others worldwide, regionally, by age or within their own gyms. An official CrossFit Games app will be available in late January, which will focus on your own personal performance in the Open. At the end of five weeks, the fittest move on to the next stages of competition: the Regionals and the Online Qualifier. [eliteaccordion][elitetoggle title="How Can I Register?"] Click the link below and either log in to an existing account if you've made one in the past years - or - create a New Account. https://games.crossfit.com/register/athlete From there, you are going to add us as your Affiliate.

Registration will end the day of the Open - We will have a separate deadline to get on the team FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS SCHEDULE Friday Nights at 5:00pm is when the big Friday Night Lights will begin, this is the big game night, we will have some talks prior to the open wod starting, then we will be creating some heats and getting after it. Friday Night Schedule: 5:00 Show up at 5 and get your name on the board, we will be setting up and getting all the prep going. I will have stock warm ups and tips up on the board that we will more than likely glaze over. 5:15pm – 8:00pm: We will have you show up at 5:00, and there are a lot of factors to consider, how long the workouts are, how much equipment is involved, how many people show up, and how many heats we will have to run. This may run anywhere from 60-120+ minutes to run. The heats are first come first serve. But I will have a good suggestion on the board for you as to when your heat is, and when you should start warming up OTHER VALIDATION TIMES: FRIDAY: 12:00pm, FNL @ 5:15 SATURDAY: 11:30am MONDAY: 6:00am, 12:00pm, 4:15pm The validation times are set as such, the time listed is the time you arrive. We expect you and whoever else is there, will be ready 20-30 minutes after the arrival time so that we can coordinate athletes in the most timely way possible. [/elitetoggle][/eliteaccordion] [eliteaccordion][elitetoggle title="The CFSB In House Intramural Open Details"] INTRAMURAL OPEN: What is that, and how is it different? The CrossFit Open is a worldwide CrossFit competition. We do it every year. We have since the beginning of the Open, and It’s fun. Last year, over 50 CFSB members tried their hand at this CrossFit “competition.” We want a different goal with the CrossFit Open this year, or heck, just a more specific goal. Our goal at CrossFit South Bend with the Open this year is to educate and inspire. Competition helps with the ‘inspire’ part: the pressure to perform pushes you to train harder; the social boost of dozens of your best friends cheering for you will help you reach a higher plane. Heck, watching your teammates GO is inspiring. Can we bring that worldwide thrill home? Can we deliver all the fun of competition without causing any anxiety attacks? We think so. In 2017, we’ll still have our competitive team, and we will give it a good shot in the Open as a team. But through the Open, we’re going to have two intramural teams competing in house. And you’re going to be on one of them. The team captains are... Amy VanDyck for the Blue Team Mitch Walker for the Orange Team. REGISTRATION AND PRICE The cost to be on a team is nothing, just your registration for the open, thats it. Once you are registered for the Open and on our team, you are in the pot to be drafted onto a team. Look at the registration tab of this post for more info. DRAFT Coaches and members will be ‘drafted’ onto an Intramural team. They won’t lose their spot on our Regional team, and their points will still count toward our Affiliate score worldwide, but we want to ensure even distribution of our most competitive athletes. POINT SCORING FOR INTRAMURAL OPEN +1 Point – If you enter your score in and submit it online before the workout deadline - Maximum one point per athlete per workout. This goes for Rx AND Scaled competitors! +1 Point – Top 3 Rx’d: every male AND female member who places among the Top 3 at CrossFit South Bend for each workout in Rx’d division gets an extra point for their team. +1 Point – Top 3 Scaled: every male AND female member who places among the Top 3 at CrossFit South Bend for each workout in Scaled division gets an extra point for their team. +1 Point to each athlete for their team when they complete that weeks "CHALLENGE" - these will be announced each week the day after the workout is released. These must be done exactly as stated in the weeks facebook live! (Note: if you forget to officially submit your score on the CFO Website, even if you are in the top 3 it will not count!) WORKOUTS In 2018, athletes competing in the Open will have only four days to complete each workout. Look down below at our Validation Schedule to get to understand that better. The Open will have five workouts. Our focus is on FUN. We want participation because it will make you fitter, and it will get you high-fives and you’ll be happy and love life more and glow and stuff.
