Thursday, May 29, 2014

Today will begin the official off-season programming which will consist of 4 MacroCycles:

1) 12-Week Wendler Cycle.  We will follow class programming with a few adjustments:
1. We will add OHS to the Wendler Cycle.
2. We will complete Boring But Big with different accessory types for specific lifts.  I.e. Front Squat BBB will be speed work, Press BBB will be with Dumbbells.
3. Each Day will have accessory work done afterwards - This will be 50% Gymnastics Strength, and 50% Upper Back strength.
4. Each Day changes to the metcon or class programming will be posted.  I will list these in order just like class is written on the board so you will know what to change the following day.
5. This program will only feature 2-3 days per week of dedicated, off the clock, Oly work - This means that your warm-up each day should involve the Outlaw Warm-Up, and a few snatch/Jerk pieces.

2) 8-Week Strength Longevity program -- This program will feature a lot of interval work with Olympic Lifts, Squats, STO and Pulling off the ground.  Gymnastics work will also share a time component now, and will be increased to 5x per week - Each day will begin with dedicated mobility work/lifting.  Some days this will pair up with class, others it will not.  I will continue to post accessory class work if that is your desire.

3) CrossFit focus 12-Week program -- This program will decrease dedicated lifting volume down to 1-2x/week. Gymnastics will be done in large sets, or max sets.  1-2x/week MetCons will go very long (25+mins) and Benchmarks will be tested (Open/Regionals). Goal for this program is to use the increased capacity and better movement from the first two cycles to move through MetCons with better efficiency.  Intervals will be used to re-assert this focus frequently. Some days this will pair up with class, others it will not.  I will continue to post accessory class work if that is your desire.

4) Conditioning Cycle -- Days will go to Strength and Gymnastics supersets, with a MetCon and a dedicated conditioning piece every day. This will match up for the most part with class - dedicated conditioning pieces will be done after class.

Goals this off-season: (*Everyone should have their own individual pieces, but this is what I see as a whole from our competitive group in terms of needing improvement*)
1) Attain better high level gymnastics. This includes HSPU (all varieties), HS Walks, Muscle-Ups (All varieties and ring heights), Pistols, Chest-to-Bars and Ring Dips.  Very rarely in the course of this competitive season did I feel a high degree of confidence in any of these movements from any of our competitive athletes to complete the desired/necessary sets in these movements.  Comparatively to being faced with 135/95# Power Snatches, or 155/105# C&Js we have a far lower ability and confidence level to sustain our gymnastics. We need to equal this out with consistent hard work, focusing mainly on moving better in each of our gymnastics pieces.
2) Lifting in general is a huge strength in our gym - I hope to continue this, but with a change this year - as we are going to go back and revisit/focus on the basics.  We are going to take a break from hardcore dedicated olympic lifting work, positioning drills, etc. and focus more on "CrossFit Lifting" -- aka lifting in ladders, on the clock, and under pressure.
3) I would like to see everyone regain their cardio/old school CF intensity.  Jay and I have become expert workout planners, we can definitely maximize someone's score in an open workout, or regional workout.  More often than not though we need to break that mold in training and push way past our limits.  Planning tiny sets with small breaks does not work in a team competitive environment.  You need to be able to pump out huge sets and still have the confidence to continue moving and not hit complete muscle failure.  The only way to build confidence with this is to go there often, run yourself into the wall, compete, and go hard.  When you are at class with someone else who follows this programming you need to have an unwritten pact that you are going to push each other as hard as you can.
4) Anyone planning to try-out for the team next year will need to compete in at least 2 individual local competitions this off-season. (I will count the Masters as one as well) You can pick which ones you do, I would prefer that you did them with others from FCF if possible.  Of course team ones are encouraged as well, but we typically always sign up for those anyway.  Plan ahead - I am participating in the Fit Club Games, I know a few others are as well.  Basically you need to know where your standards fall short, what workouts in competition kick your ass or hold you back, and where you can improve.  It also gives me an idea of where everyone sits throughout the season - who is putting in good effort year round, and who is only focusing from the time the Open starts.

Programming:
1) Outlaw Warm-Up + Sotts Press before #1 begins - get on your warm-up quick if you're 5:30am.
2) Bust ass
3) Scale to Handstand Push-Up (Kipping)
4) *Extra Work*

After Team practice I will shoot an email out showing final pairs and we will stick with that as much as possible - that way everyone will understand who they need to practice with, but much of this is 6-person work.  We will try to get together 1 evening this week (which will be decided on Saturday) as well as Saturday and Sunday the following weekend (5/10-5/11, yes I know it is mother's day).  Then we will get together for sure on Tuesday morning for a final run through.  Time is very tight so if you all can avoid going out of town or making plans as much as possible that would be great, we cannot afford to be missing practices with only 3-4 opportunities now.  Right now I know Kit is gone this Sunday, and K$ is gone the following Sunday.  Please let me know any other schedule conflicts ASAP.

If you have a group of 2-3 (no bigger than 3) treat this as a Relay, "For Time" event - Once Partner 1 finishes his/her KB Snatches, Partner 2 can begin on the 50 Back Squats. Rest until all partners have finished, then...

This week you will need to figure out your own schedule based on a few things:
#1 - If you came all weekend and need to rest today DO SO! Figure out what days you will come the rest of the week, and try to make Skulls on Saturday.
#2 - If you need to do any of the remaining workouts you should plan to do so this week as either extra work from class, or in place of a metcon for the full competition training.
#3 - Remember to be smart as you begin adding volume back into your training, think about it in "workouts per week" - if each labeled section on here is 1 workout, class will typically have 2, this will typically have 3.  If you have been hurting from the Open you should be looking to add one workout per week over the next 3-4 weeks (i.e. don't jump onto this blog full go and get straight to 15-18 workouts if you aren't ready for that) Do class and add in some work gradually, get to 12-13 this week, then 13-14 next week, 15 in 3 weeks, then we will deload for regionals.

Class assistance work
From here on out I will be posting additional work if you are deciding to do class, but still want to do extra work.  This will mainly be for people in the early morning or late afternoon who are doing team.  If you are able to come during the 'mid-day skulls' you can choose to do the full day above or class + assistance work (or in reality whatever you like).  Teams do not need to volumize for Regionals like Jenny/individuals will, so switching to this program if you have seen success with class programming is not entirely necessary.  However each day there will likely be something posted that you could and should benefit from.  This will alternate between gymnastics, olympic, and strength work so try to not pigeon hole yourself into just doing the gymnastics assistance everyday.

Do class (Scale KB Snatches to Heavy DB Snatch for Class Death By) then complete...

EMOM15:
1. 14-16 Pistols (or scale to goblet squat weighted 30" step-ups - try to mimmick pistol position)
