Updated Class Schedule

 

 

 


Saturday:

9 am – https://us02web.zoom.us/j/768492405

 

 

 


Weekly WODs (CrossFit):

 

Monday – Murph Prep Monday + Squat Cycle

We begin the week with our 5×5 or 5×3 squat cycle. Last week we reset to 60% of our previous squat cycle 5-rep max. In our strength segment for today’s workout we will be adding 5 pounds if we can continue to produce great looking squats.  Today’s workout will make sure you are firing on all cylinders for our annual Murph WOD.  Get ready to squat, push, and pull!

Tuesday – Burpee Burner

Large ladders of lateral burpees and power cleans are in store for you on day 2. The athlete’s goal in our conditioning workout is to set a consistent pace on the lateral burpees. If we set a smooth pace on the burpees it will allow us to cycle large sets of touch and go power cleans without taking too many time-outs.

Wednesday – Hump Day Handstands

We have a great gymnastics workout planned for your mid-week sweat session. Our workout is 5 rounds for time of a 400 meter run, handstands pushups, and dumbbell reverse lunges. We will scale this workout by finding an appropriate overhead pressing substitute, finding a dumbbell weight that allows for unbroken lunges, and establishing a running distance that we can accomplish in 2 minutes or less.

Thursday – Heal Yo Self

Most of our athletes that participated in the Crossfit Open workouts for 2020, and the Wodapalooza workouts at the tail end of 2019 remember our Thursday recovery days. Good News! They are back. If you are feeling beat up from “getting after it” then find your way to the gym for a chill sweat session. We have 20 minute recovery EMOM of up-downs, box jumps, light kettlebell swings and air squats.

Friday – Crossfit Open Workout 19.1

It’s one of those days where you “flip the switch”. It’s days like this were you see what those early morning training sessions have really done for you. It’s also one of those days that can be eye opening and help you mentally recommit yourself to training. Our workout is Crossfit Open workout 19.1 and we are TESTING! However, if we haven’t been training consistently, or are injured we will dial this one back a couple of notches.

Saturday – Crossfit / Level 2

Both strength and conditioning workouts for Crossfit and Level 2 will be the same for this weekend. Our conditioning session will consist of an alternating EMOM that includes ring rows, core strengthening static positions, and moderate efforts on the rower or bike. We will also take time in both classes to establish a heavy 5-rep strict press. Level 2’s workout will be slightly modified to incorporate a muscle-up EMOM.

Saturday – CFK Burn

It’s that time to stoke the flames again in our Burn class this weekend. We have an 18-minute conditioning EMOM of up-downs, kettlebell front rack holds, and a cardio option of your choice!
