Category: Workout of the Day

Hey guys! It’s Tuesday again! That means that the 5:30 pm class is dedicated to Olympic Lifting! If that’s not what you’re looking for, come in at 4:45 or 6:30 for regular classes! 

THE OPENS ARE COMING!!!  If you’re not sure what this means, let me explain. The Opens are an online CrossFit competition that spans over 5 weeks with one workout being released each week.  This competition will lead to regionals for the top 48 men and women and top 30 teams in each region which then leads to the CrossFit Games for those who finish on top of each Region.  The ONLY requirement for competing is that you sign up!  Challenge yourself! See how you measure up next to other CrossFit athletes ALL over the world! It’s a really neat experience and I would suggest to anyone who is thinking about doing it to go for it! And to those of you who are thinking that you can’t do it because you can’t do certain things in CrossFit…you should do it too! We will run workouts one day a week at the gym as a big group! You might PR, you will probably surprise yourself and you will definitely HAVE FUN!! Talk to one of your coaches about it if you have any questions! Registration begins January 30th and the first workout will be released on March 6th.

Strength:

JERK

Work up to a Heavy Single for the day.  This doesn’t necesarrily mean that you will be going for a new 1RM. We can’t PR everyday! If you’re feeling good, go for it! If not work up to what feels heavy for you today and try to hit each jerk with solid technique. Being able to hit solid and consistant reps right under your PR will eventually equal a new PR.
