CrossFit for Hope

May 31, 2012

CrossFit for Hope at BODY ARMOR

June 9th, 2012 at 8:30 AM

“Hope”
Three rounds of:
Burpees
75 pound Power snatch
Box jump, 24″ box
75 pound Thruster
Chest to bar Pull-ups

“Hope” has the same format as Fight Gone Bad. In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On call of “rotate,” the athlete/s must move to next station immediately for good score. One point is given for each rep.

SIGN UP TODAY on MB Online. If you sign up, we will charge your card on file for a $25.00, which is the minimum to do the workout. Our goal is to get 40 people sign up, ALL the money will goto St. Jude. CrossFit for Hope will benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The goal is to raise 1.7MM – one day’s operating cost for St. Jude – to combat childhood cancer and other deadly diseases.

They took up several obviously wrong people, and they ran their heads very hard against wrong ideas, and persisted in trying to fit the circumstances to the ideas, instead of trying to extract ideas from the circumstances.

Split Programming

May 28, 2012

This next week will be your choice. We’ve gone through a 3 week, joint prep, hypertrophy phase, and I want to give you this next week to prepare for testing. Choose any 3 days you want to workout but get good rest with the anticipation of doing well the following week. As I mentioned, I’m going to create a card to be kept at Body Armor. You will fill this out with your test scores and use them for other workouts as well as future testing. The schedule for testing will be as follows:

Monday: 15 minutes to max on Snatch and C&J, followed by a 1,000m Row

Tuesday: 800m Run, Fran, timed isometric back extension

Wednesday: 15 minutes to max on High Bar Deep BSQ, Push Press, timed L-Sit

Thursday: 1 min max Muscle-Ups, 1 min max Toes 2 Bar, 10 min AMRAP of 5 HSPU’s-10 Pistols-30 Dbl U’s.

Saturday: Filty 50.

These will be a great cross-section of strengths, skills, and work capacities of different time domains that will give us a data base of our weaknesses and strengths.
