CONGRATULATIONS, TODAY IS YOUR LAST DAY OF THE WHOLE 30 CHALLENGE!!!!!!

~BOX NEWS~

Well, I hope everyone is safe and sound as Isaac passes through.

The box will resume operating hours Thursday afternoon (NO morning classes). I will go there in the morning to assess if lights are on and everything is okay. If no electricity, I will postpone morning classes until the lights are on.

What I need from you…CrossFit Total

I have a CF Total programmed for tomorrow and Saturday. I will post CF Total for tomorrow, a non-strength WOD for Friday, and the same for Saturday. Over the next three days, I need you to complete a CF Total. The following six week cycle is a percentage based program focusing on Squat and Deadlift. The six weeks following that will be strength and power focused (oly-lifts). There will be plenty of press work, METCON and endurance workouts in there. I calculated that we are 26-28 weeks out from the “Season”. The following 12 weeks will allow us to build strength and power, then taper towards a peaking cycle in the late winter. I know that is a lot of info for you to digest, and I havent covered a fraction of it–typing with one arm is getting old!!!

Anyhoo, get your numbers so that I have LESS deer-in-the-headlight looks when I ask what your squat or deadlift max is…

What I may do is post the following six weeks…but I hate when folks cherry pick WODs. more to follow

Rest Day – Pay attention to your body. If you are doing 5-6 WODs per week, REST. If not, come to the box and work on some mobility, foam roller, stretching to stay in the game.

Make-up Day – If you are a 3-4 WOD per week CFer, this is a great opportunity to hit a WOD you missed earlier in the week or from previous post. Also a great time to gain a Leader Board spot!

Goat Day – This is your opportunity to hit those weak gymnastic areas (muscle-up, handstand) or want to improve on a lifting technique. Again, use these weaknesses and create a short/intense WOD.
