*Complete all 3 workouts at 75-80% pacing effort (i.e. 20 Minute AMRAP pace)
**We are encouraging you to break the 30 overhead squats into 2-3 sets

 

TARGET SCORE
Target Time each set: 3-4 minutes
Target Time each set: 5 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY! We have three different workouts in which you will cycle through three different movements. The goal should be similar pacing and times across workouts, regardless of the order.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE and CARDIO! Use the clock to pace rounds.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Rope Climb: Don’t veer too far away from the rope between reps. Try to complete one climb every 15-20 seconds or even a touch faster. Big jump every time, and remember to put your arms between your legs as you pull up.

Overhead Squat: The weight is very light (under 40% of 1RM), and all sets should be completed unbroken. We’d love for you to squat snatch the first rep and get right into it. Focus on relaxing your hands and breathing through the motion.

AB/ ROW: It is not a sprint, but try to maintain a moderate push pace (75%+) that doesn’t blow your legs and lungs up. Get it up to speed within 5 seconds and slow down the final 2-3 calories.

 

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

Nutrition Preparation: Ensure that you have quality foods prepared in the appropriate quantities to fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.

Mental Restoration: Different for everyone – could be quiet time, prayer or meditation or could be gathering with friends; the key is to engage in activities that make your life full and help you recharge your batteries.

SUPERSET: 3-4 sets
Single Arm DB/KB ROW 10-12 reps each side. Perform directly after each set of Bench Press

 

WOD:

-Rest :30-
30 Banded Curls
-Rest 1:00 between sets-

 

TARGET SCORE
Target Time each set: sub 7 minutes
Time Cap each set: 9 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY! All the pushing mixed in with some erg pulling. Let’s aim for quick and consistent sets on the presses while using the row to reset the arms. Pacing should stay the same across rounds and sets.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE and CARDIO! The reps go down on the press, but the level of difficulty increases. Know your limits and understand when to break to avoid failure.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Push Press/Shoulder Press: Weight is light where all reps and sets should be completed unbroken. Shoulder Press might be the area of concern to break into 2 sets. Make that call early on if your shoulders begin to burn out.

Wall Facing HSPU: This will be the most challenging area forsure. If shoulders endurance favors you and unbroken is possible then go for it. Otherwise, break early and often to avoid getting stuck.

——can scale these to Strict Box Handstand Push Up

Row: Depending on your strength in the upper body, this can used as a moderate-recovery type effort (70-75%) or ramp up a little for more endurance athletes (80%). Regardless, focus on using a strong leg and hip drive to take tension off the shoulders. Goal should be sub 75 seconds.

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

Minute 3: 20 GHD Sit Ups/ Anchored Situps

 

TARGET SCORE
Target Time each minute: sub 40 seconds
Time Cap each minute: 50 seconds

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! Days like today are great for building volume and developing consistency through moderate repetition with built in rest. Each station should be approached with a moderate push pace effort that allows for at least 1:1 work/rest.

How it should Feel: GASSY! Push hard through the movements and enjoy a solid rest. Be ready to work when the clock hits.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Sandbag Cleans to Shoulder: Lighter weight than normal so let’s kick it into high gear and attack. Aim for an aggressive, non-stop that completes 1 rep every 3 seconds.

Wall Walks: Try and touch and go these reps. If you need to pause at the bottom just keep it short.

GHD Sit Ups: These should be the longest station. Move smooth and steady with aggressive hip and arm drive. Goal is sub 45 seconds.

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them.

27 May WOD – Monday 27 May 2024

CROSSFITREST AND RECOVERY

Hero WOD: Murph

Partition the pull-ups, push-ups, and squats as needed. Start and finish with a mile run. If you’ve got a twenty pound vest or body armor, wear it.
• 1 mile Run
• 100 Pull-ups
• 200 Push-ups
• 300 Squats
• 1 mile Run

**** Athletes must head out for last run or row 10min before end of the workout, regardless of how many reps and round they may have completed

 

Hero: Murph
Memorial day is here! If you’ve been doing CrossFit for a while, you’ve seen that a common Hero Workout done on memorial day is “Murph”. This workout is in honor of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy. Murphy was a SEAL team member who lost his life serving his country in Afghanistan in 2005 during Operation Red Wings (2).

On the morning of June 28th, Lt. Michael Murphy and Petty Officers Danny Dietz, Matthew Axelson, and Marcus Luttrell were dropped into the mountains of Afghanistan, only to be ambushed by more than fifty militiamen after a local accidentally wandered onto their position and gave it up.

The four soldiers were heavily outnumbered, but put up a strong fight. During the ambush, Lt. Murphy risked his own life by coming out from cover, finding a signal, and calling for help.

 

TARGET SCORE
Target Time: 50 minutes
Time Cap: 1 hour 30 minutes
STIMULUS and GOALS
Murph time! Honor our veterans and be thankful for our Freedom! This is always a great test of our muscular endurance and cardio that we can test our mental toughness during.

 

How to Pace: GRIND into, PAIN CAVE! You’ve got to stay mentally tough and stay moving.

How it should feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE into PAIN!!! Murph is total body fatigue eventually and then it just hurts!

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
You may choose if you partition reps, do strict pull ups, and/or wear a vest. Rich usually does strict pull ups and always wears a vest. It can be fun to change up which exact version you do from year to year. We like using a smaller whiteboard or some system to help you tick off reps as you move along.

Run: Use a consistent pace you can do for the first and last mile! Don’t come out too hot.

Strict Pull Up or Kipping / Butterfly Pull Up: Stick to manageable sets of (likely 5-10) out of the gate. Keep the kip forceful and fast to save the arms, and minimize time under tension.

Push Ups: Start with smaller sets than you think you should! There’s nothing wrong with coming out with sets of 3-5 fast sets on a disciplined time interval to stay consistent. Don’t fry out!

Air Squats: Just stay moving as much as you can and grind through it! Keep weight mid foot and use those glutes/hips! Mentally thinking of it in sets of 10-15 can help.

 

MODIFICATIONS
(For pregnant or postpartum women)

Run –> run if you feel comfortable still, if not then complete on a machine

Pull Up –> Band Assisted Pull Ups- 1 Foot
Banded Lat Pull Down

Push ups –> Knee Push Ups or Incline Push Ups

Air Squats –> no modification

 

SCALING
The SCALING aim is to stay moving and get a great workout in!

Scaling option to finish near the target score:

“Half Murph”
800m Run
50 Pull Up
100 Push Up
150 Squat
800m Run
*With or without a 20/14 Vest

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

24 May WOD – Friday 24 May 2024

CROSSFITREST AND RECOVERY

WOD: AMRAP 18 Minutes
6 – 4 – 2
Bench Press (100/65kg)
3 – 2 – 1
Rope Climb
*Repeat the 6-4-2 and 3-2-1 sequence for the full 18 minutes

*Scoring: Every time you complete a set of 6-4-2/3-2-1 that will count as 1 round.

 

TARGET SCORE
Target Reps: 108+ reps (6+ Rounds)
Minimum Reps before Scaling: 72 (4 Rounds)

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: STEADY into GRIND! This upper body push/pull combo will have you climbing up and down the ladder for what feels like eternity. Pacing should be moderately-light while emphasizing rest during transitions to avoid muscle failure.

How it should Feel: MUSCULAR ENDURANCE! If you push the pace too early, you could find yourself staring at the rope or, worse, stuck underneath a barbell. Be smart, or it won’t end well.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Bench Press: Weight should be moderately heavy (under 80% of 1RM), where the majority of the sets could be completely unbroken. The 6s might be an area of concern down the line, so aim to break on those sooner rather than later.

Rope Climb: It’s not legless, so use your legs as much as possible to help save the upper body. Try to complete 1 climb every 12-20 seconds. Be smooth, work efficient foot placement, and have a confident slide down the rope each rep!

 

Friday Finisher

10 Standing Tricep DB French Press @ RPE 7

Min 2: 1 Back Rack Box Squat @ 5.5/10 RPE
Min 3: 1 Back Rack Box Squat @ 6/10 RPE

WOD: 8-16-24-32 
Hang Squat Cleans (50/30)
*8 Over the Bar Burpees after each set of Hang Squat Cleans

 

TARGET SCORE
Target Time: sub 8 minutes
Time Cap: 10 minutes

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! Today is all about the lower body and keeping a near non-stop effort across. Using the time between the stations as rest is key but should not be overdone. During this ascending rep scheme, our pacing should start off moderately conservative to have enough left in the tank for those larger sets down the line where we want you to push more aggressively to hang on and move!

How it should Feel: GASSY and/or LACTIC ACID PARTY! Lower body will be screaming to stop! Don’t give in! Keep pushing through the pain. Your grip may be fatigued as well from the lightweight and frequent pulling!

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Hang Squat Clean: Weight is light (under 40% of 1RM Squat Clean), where you should aim for sets of 8 or more. Flow with the barbell and use the momentum to cycle reps smoothly and efficiently. Focus on breathing at the top of each rep. Find a foot placement where you are not constantly jumping in and out of each rep.

Burpee Box Jump Over: Just move and try not to blow up your lungs/legs anymore. If needed, take a quick break at the bottom of each burpee and jump explosively up to the box. The height is higher than average, and it will be much more difficult as the lactic acid builds. Try to keep these under 45 seconds per 8 reps

 

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

Nutrition Preparation: Ensure that you have quality foods prepared in the appropriate quantities to fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.

21 May WOD – Tuesday 21 May 2024

CROSSFITREST AND RECOVERY

Strength & Skill:

 

Part A:

*Do a set every 1 minute and 30 seconds.

5 Sets x 5 Pause Snatch Deadlift + Jump and Shrug @ 85% 1 RM Snatch

*Pause Snatch Deadlift: pause is at mid thigh for 2 seconds.
**Jump and Shrug from the mid thigh position.

 

PART B:

*Do a set every 3 minutes.
3 Sets
10 Dumbbell Incline Bench Press (HEAVY)
7-10 Single Arm Dumbbell Row
:30-:45 Ring Support

*Score is only Dumbbell Incline Bench Press weight.

 

WOD: In teams of 2
AMRAP 2 Minutes
50 Double Unders (each, at the same time)
10m Handstand Walk / 3x Wall Walk (each, at the same time)
Max Deadlifts (120/80) (split)
*Go until you get 75 reps
-rest 1 minute between sets-

 

TARGET SCORE
Target Time: sub 8 minutes (3 rounds)
Time Cap: 14 minutes (5 rounds)

 

STIMULUS and GOALS
How to Pace: CHALLENGE! You and your partner should aim for a constant push-pace effort through the first 2 movements that leaves adequate time for deadlifts. You can’t move on to the next station without your partner, so it is good to try and be the fastest one done. Be strategic, and then whoever finishes the handstand walk first should be the one getting ready to deadlift. The goal should be to have 1 minute or more time for deadlifts.

How it should Feel: GASSY! And MUSCLE ENDURANCE! The turnaround will be quick, but if you keep a solid pace, then you won’t have to do very many sets.

 

WORKOUT STRATEGY & FLOW
Double Unders: Unbroken, relax your shoulders and hands while settling into a steady breathing pattern.

Handstand Walk: Unbroken would be awesome! It’s only 25ft so kick right up and get the work done. If you can’t do that, then go as big of sets as you can handle.

Deadlift: Use under 70% of 1RM. We like 5-10 reps here for breaking it up back and forth. First set you will feel the best so maybe aim for 10 or more. Don’t push to that breaking point, unless it’s the final set.

 

 

Mobility and Maintenance: Choose 1-2 Thoracic Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 1-2 Upper Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 5-10 minutes with them. Choose 2-3 Lower Extremity Mobility Drills from Kelly Starrett’s Mobility WOD and spend 10-12 minutes with them.

Nutrition Preparation: Ensure that you have quality foods prepared in the appropriate quantities to fuel your efforts for the remainder of the week.
