You are more than welcome to come in for some Open Gym during that time![/accordion_item][accordion_item title="Tuesday 9.08.15"]Tuesday 9.08.15 A. 15 Minutes to finish Push Press 1.1.1.1 B.
5 Rounds 400m Run 15 Front Squats 135lbs/95lbs 15 minute CAP Notes: Push Press- only start counting the weight when it starts to get heavy. If you have completed Fundamentals or Accelerated Fundamentals within the last 2 months you will be going with the rep scheme of 3.3.3.3. Try to start your first set at 85% of whatever you intend to hit that day, and choose a good goal to get after for your 100%. So you'll choose your weight that you'd like to realistically hit, then warm up to it, start counting your sets at 85%, 90%,95%,100% - If there is a time cap, its a good thing to plan out your sets so that you are hitting that 100% with a few minutes left to go, just in case you felt as though it was easy and would like another attempt. Remember, you push/power jerked it, it doesn't count. Front Squats- Choose an intelligent weight, something you know you can move pretty well - this will be pulled from the floor. This has a 15 minute cap, so try to choose a weight that may allow for that  
[/accordion_item][accordion_item title="Wednesday 9.09.15"]Wednesday 9.09.15 A. 18 Minutes to complete 3 Rounds Max L-Sit Hold Max Top of the Pull Up Hold Max Wall Facing Handstand Hold B. Deadlift 5RM, with at least a 1 second pause at the bottom of Deadlift C. 5 minute Ladder 4 Lateral Ball Slams 4 Burpees 8 Lateral Ball Slams 8 Burpees 12 Lateral Ball Slams 12 Burpees ***increase exponentially by 4 reps every round until time runs out. Score will be total reps Notes: Part A - These next 9 weeks we will be performing an isometric hold cycle, we typically allot a little more time than we think we may need the first few times of an unfamiliar cycle to allow for everyone to learn and adjust. Just try to listen up on these days. Part B - Just a standard 5rm, we want to kill any stored energy at the bottom by having a nice 1 count at the bottom. Part C - Lateral Ball Slams, we like to switch up the ball slams from time to time, especially since most CrossFit programming doesn't contain any rotational/lateral movements - movements in a transverse plane of motion.[/accordion_item][accordion_item title="Thursday 9.10.15"]Thursday 9.10.15 A. 10-15 Minutes Double Under Practice   B. 4 Rounds NFT 25yd Plate Overhead Walking Lunges AHAP 50yd Reverse Sled Drag AHAP Notes: Double under practice...because you need it. Here are some good reference points. Progression 1 Progression 2 Progression 3 Sometimes we want something heavy, that is a grind. NFT means not for time, One- because we don't have 25 drag sleds to work with for everyone individually, and Two- If there is a clock, people get too worried about the time and not worried enough about weight and moving it appropriately.[/accordion_item][accordion_item title="Friday 9.11.15"]Friday 9.11.15 A. Skill: Sandbag Get Up Skill Work B. Every 90 seconds for 10 Rounds 3 Chin Ups Max Sandbag Get Ups AHAP ***score is total SBGU C. NFT 4 Rounds Max Dumbbell Hammer Curls, with a weight they can do for around 12 reps 50yd Farmers Walk Notes: Start the top of each round by hitting 3 chin ups. finish that round with as many sandbag get ups as you can. Continue this for a horrible 10 Rounds. For part C. We want something to smoke your grip strength, so work accordingly with the weights.[/accordion_item][accordion_item title="Saturday 9.12.15"]Saturday 9.12.15 20 Minute AMRAP Teams of 2 7 Toes to Bar 9 Thrusters 75/55 11 Kettlebell Swings 55/35 Notes: Partners will alternate back and for completing the movements.

Hey guys! The gym is closed for normal classes today **except** open gym from 6am-noon. Below is our normal programming. If you're able to make it in to do it, great! Otherwise, NBD, take a rest day and come back well-rested on Wednesday.  Week 3, Day 7 -- this is a recovery week, the percentages are intentionally low to let your brain and body take a break. Note: a break does not mean the lifts should be any less explosive or be taken any less seriously than normal.  Warm-up: 3x5 parallette shoot throughs (don't rush these! Tuck your legs and try to make them pretty!) A.  Jerk - 2x3@65%  B.  Front squat - 2x5@65% C.  10:00 of work (:45 work, :15 rest/transition)
  • Odd minutes - evil wheels
  • Even minutes - plate ground-to-overhead (45/35#)
