HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

HALSEY GYM IS OPEN!

There is no programmed WOD, but...
Straggle in to Halsey between 1300 and 1500 and fine tune your lifts.  Practice your deadlift, squat, and/or bench press.  This is a great chance for you to find your 1RM at any of these movements so you can accurately choose your weights for the WODs that prescribe a percentage of your 1RM.  A coach will be present the entire time to spot you for each attempt, change out your weights, and critique your form.  Your attempts will be recorded and emailed to you.  This is as easy as it gets, so come on out.  You should be well rested and nourished by 1300.  In order to prevent long wait times for equipment, please post on our Facebook page what time you plan on arriving.  If the gym gets busy, we will move the weights out to the Rogue Bars.  

NOTE: If nobody shows up, I'm not sticking around for 2 hours!

Reminders


Just a few reminders/updates

1) Each class will now have the instructors name on the board for that specific time. Please approach that coach with questions/concerns/substitutions/updates. Other coaches may be present but might be WODing. We are all eager to help but try to speak with your specific coach first.

2) If we warmup inside, then WOD outside please put all the equipment you used by the whiteboard so we do not take up valuable space for others working out/playing basketball. (This includes pulling down the bands on the pullup bars)

3) Please, Please encourage people as they WOD. Many times its others who give us the belief that we can do another rep or go another round. However, please do not coach your teammates. There may be issues you are not aware of or technique issue we are working on with a particular athlete which is why they are not doing something exactly how we coached you. If you are concerned we don't see something that may cause injury please point it out to your coach and we will address the issue.

You guys are awesome and we love all of you. We couldn't ask for a better group of crossfitters and we just want to make sure we remain strong and safe! Good luck with J.T. tomorrow.

Today we say goodbye to the 2nd half of the Van Allen team as Warren is leaving Atsugi to join his wife Erin in beautiful Washington State.  Following in Erin's footsteps, Warren has been a HUGE part of our Crossfit family.  After getting his level 1 certification earlier this year, he coached many on "the boat" and on Atsugi.  He sent out almost daily emails, with detailed explanations of proper form and body movement to those on the boat so they could continue to work with intensity and variability despite the crazy hours and limited space.  Writing all that out must have been amazingly time consuming and difficult, but Warren cared enough to make sure everyone had everything they need.  I know those men and women Crossfitting without him on the boat miss him, but we will miss him here very much as well.  Good luck Warren at your next station and we will make sure to stop by Crossfit Van Allen whenever we are in W-state!


Basic warm-up will remain the same for November
Advanced warm-up for November is the Burgener Warm-up.

We will begin testing for A wod or B wod startnig next week - so get ready!

 HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARYANN!!!!!!

In your honor:
A and B WOD:

10 min and 27 second AMRAP of:
10 Ball slams
10 Box Jumps
10 V sit-ups


Mobility work: deep squat sit and hold.  Accumulate 10 mins.  You may take short breaks as needed. 


Tuesday October 25, 2011

WODS will now be split in to two catergories.  A and B.  Beginners will work on the B WOD until they have mastered all of the movements.  Then, after a coach has approved it and seen all of these movements performed with proficiency, you may progress to working on the A WODS.  Last week's programming was all B WOD activities.  If you struggled with any of those movements, please perform the B WOD.  If you felt proficient enough to show a coach all the movement without cues, feel free to move into the A WOD today.  If you have been crossfitting less than 2 months, I suggest the B WOD.   

B (basic) WOD activities include:
Airsquat, jumping pull-up, deadlift, press, push press, wallball clean, front squat with wallball, burpees, back squat, overhead squat with PVC, racking and unracking the bar.

A WOD activities include:  Cleans with the bar, snatches, overhead squat with weight, push jerk, kipping pullups, front squat with the bar, muscle-ups

Any activities not listed will be by coaches discretion


Today's WOD:

A WOD:
Death by kipping pull-ups
-with a continuously running clock, perform a pullup, adding an additional pull-up each minute until you can no longer complete the reps in the minute.  You may scale to a banded kipping pull-up.  

B WOD:
150 jumping pull-ups for time.

Then (light permitting- the sun sets at 4:54pm)
A and B WOD:  5 x 300 m sprints.  60 seconds rest in between.  Score fastest sprint.




Monday, October 24, 2011

In Honor of the All Blacks winning the World Cup!

A and B WOD:

7 min AMRAP, 1 min rest, then another 7 min AMRAP of:

4x 10 yard sprint with 1 burpee at the end of each sprint
7 Back squat (95/65) *

WOD:
REST




I figured Shannon would like the WOD I posted for him today.  I know we just had our huge shin-dig for the McGrevy's last night, but I wanted to throw a special goodbye blog post for Shannon!  Shannon is the man behind the great Michelle McGrevy! (so you know he has to be pretty flippin cool too)  Shannon just recently became actively involved in our crossfit group and it was so great to have him with us!!!  Shannon you will be missed in your own right by the people here at CFKP.  I will particularly miss you grumbling under your breath at me every time I yell at you to squat lower!!!  Keep drinking the kool-aid and soon you will not want anything else to drink!  I think you are developing a taste for it right now.  We will miss you so much Shannon! 



Monday October 10 there will be 1 WOD at 9am meeting outside by PSD

Saturday WOD 1000

I apologize for the late post.  The internet was down.  I know some of you may have lost power again last, but I hope it is restored now.  Please everyone remember to conserve energy until the permanent fix happens so no one has to go without power!





This is an extremely difficult post for me to write!  Today's Saturday WOD will be Michelle's LAST Saturday WOD as she PCS's on the 15th.  I cannot say enough about Michelle and all of the wonderful things she is and has done for our little crossfit community.  Michelle is that go-to person in our group that will always help anyone, always root you on, always stays late to help pick up.  She is one of the core people that make up CFKP and we will be shaky and off balance when she leaves!  She was one of the original people who started crossfitting with Charlotte.  She has seen this community grow, shift, and change.  Now she leaves as one of your coaches - and an amazing one at that!  Her presence at CFKP has brought in so many new amazing members! People are just drawn to her - even if it means you have to do her "crazy crossfit stuff!"  I am happy she will be pursuing coaching in the states as well.  I know we will all miss her insanely (I will).  But I KNOW she will still be chiming in on our FB page quite regularly!  Michelle - you better let us know how you do in the opens girl!  Only 5 months!  We are rooting for you!  We love you and I miss you already!!!

Scaling options to think about:

-Scale your weight at the various activities. 
-Talk to Cindy, Erin, Warren, or Michelle if you need some other scaling due to injury.
The 9 movement chipper above may be done out of order since we will be sharing bars. 

Please bring a long towel for your burpee pullups - we will do them OUTSIDE.  Risers will need to be set up for those needing them.
The weights of the bars that will be set up are:
-170 lbs (men's RX deadlift)
-155 lbs (men's RX power clean)
-120 lbs (women's RX deadlift)
-100 lbs (men's RX push jerk and women's RX power clean)

Then using Bodypump weight we will have:
-85 lbs x 2 (women's RX thruster)
-75 lbs x 2 (women's RX push jerk)
-65 lbs x 2
-45 lbs x 2
-25 lbs

Please try to use one of these weights; however if you truly need a different weight make sure it is set up.
