8:00 – Country Club – Don’t Forget!!! Dedicated to Army Sgt 1st Class Daniel Crabtree who was killed in Al Kut, Iraq on Thursday June 8th 2006. You can choose to do this solo (as intended) or with a partner. If you choose a partner, the runs must be done together, and the rest of the work must be synchronized with both athletes working together. If you do it with a partner, try to use the same weight for the thrusters if you can. (not absolutely required) Athlete’s choice whether to do this solo or with a partner. “Daniel” For time: 50 pull-ups 400m run 21 thrusters, 95/65# 800m run 21 thrusters, 95/65# 400m run 50 pull-ups  Read more

Spend 20 minutes finding a 5 rep back squat – the caveat is that you must pause in the bottom position for 3 seconds. The 3 seconds begins once you reach the bottom of the squat and should be a full 3 seconds (“1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, 3 Mississippi” not “1,2,3”) Partners can also watch the clock to tell you when to come up. For the conditioning, you’ll do 5 clean and jerks as many Toes to Bar as you can in the remaining time. Your score is total amount of toes to bar.  Use a C/J weight that is moderate, but you can string together smoothly.  Scale T2B to knees to elbows, v-ups or sit-ups. Strength Take 20 minutes to build up to a heavy 5 rep pause back squat Conditioning 5 rounds of 1 min. work, 1 min. rest: 5 clean and jerks (135/95) ME Toes to BarRead more

This weeks Friday “Burnout” class will be moved to 1:00pm, back to normal (noon) next Friday. Today’s workout is a throw back to old school CF. Just 2 movements, and just one component. This is a good opportunity to take the extra class time to improve upon these movements and mobilize. Be sure to collaborate with other athletes and coaches to zero in on your exact scaling needs.  Deadlift should be no more than 60% of your true 1RM. Remember, simplicity yields intensity which yields results. Set-up, put your head down, and don’t stop moving. For Time: 10-1 1-10 Deadlift (225/155) Box Jumps (24/20″)Read more

Strength is an alternating EMOM – choose a heavy, but moderate bench weight. For pistols, scale to a box or holding onto an upright. For the metcon, the bar will start on the ground and you’ll need to clean it and get it onto your back for the lunges. Progression for muscle ups should be a mix of pull-ups and dips (Ring pull-ups, chest to bar pull-ups, or banded strict pull-ups, and for dips, either box ring dips, bench dips, or parallette dips) You may do a 2:1 or 1:1 ratio for whatever progression you choose. Strength / Skill Alternating EMOM for 10 minutes A. 5 Bench Press B. 8 Pistols (4L/4R) Conditioning AMRAP in 12 minutes: 10 back rack lunges, 135/95# 50 Double Unders 7 muscle upsRead more
