HOW TO APPROACH THE WORKOUT
​

Performance
Traditional CrossFit Movements and variety.
Fitness 
The same crossfit methodology and challenge as the performance workouts, but without heavy barbells or high skill movements. Pure fitness without the complexity (oH yeah, and more volume).
*Scaled movements are in red

Strength
Bench Press

Find 5RM
Then 90% for 5+

Metcon (Time)
 4 Rounds

200m run w/ Med Ball (25/20)
25 Deficit Push Ups (45/35)
30 Med Ball SU w/ ab mat (25/20)

SCALED

200m run 
Push Ups 
30 SU w/ ab mat


Things to Remember:

With the 200m run focus on keeping the ball as close to your midline as possible and your core fully engaged.

While performing the deficit push ups make sure to keep the integrity of your neutral spine and allow your chest to touch the ground and squeeze you abs and glutes as you push.  All of the cues can be performed whether you push from your knees or toes.

Don't over look the sit ups. Focus on keeping your hips on the ground. Make sure your shoulder blades hit the ground and the med ball stays high under your chin.

9 KB SDLHP, 50 Single-Unders or 15 DU attempts


*Continue to add 1 Power Clean or  3 SDLHP per round until time is called.

Things to Remember:
​

Long arms throughout pull.
Aggressive triple extension at the top with a shrug, but the elbows should not bend.
Focus on bar path as we break from midshin.
The hips and shoulders rise together until we clear the knee, and at this point this is where we begin our acceleration through.
"Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast."
Once we pass the knee level, that is where our speed increases.
 A common fault in athletes is to rush the 1st pull, or simply move so fast that they loose position.

Slow this process down so that they can find the right positions.

 Accessory
Active cool down: 1 mile or 800m run
(Nice and easy)

Metcon (Time)
“Randy’s on the Run”

5 Rounds

400 Meter Run (200m Run)
15 Power Snatches (75/55) (Hang Snatch 55/35)

Things to remember:

We are looking for a consistent pace throughout all five rounds. Especially in that first 400 meter run, we want to pace well. Visualize the pace you would aim for in a 2-3 mile run. That is an appropriate pace to strive to hold inside the workout.

On the power snatches, we are looking for large sets. They do not need to be unbroken, but the weight we are selecting should be a loading that allows you to move through each round of 15 repetitions with at most one break.

On these power snatches, we want to hang onto the bar. We can use the first 50-100 meters of the run as a recovery.

Bars stay close to the body.  Back stays neutral (be on the look out as when fatigue sets in, backs can round).  Punch to the finish on the snatches.  Push inside the gym walls on the barbell and recover on the run.
