Hope everyone had a happy and safe New Year! Start 2013 off on the "right step"...

for the
DRUMHELLER'S FAREWELL WOD





I do not remember what it was like to crossfit here in Atsugi without the Drumhellers, and frankly – I don’t want to!  Both Rene and Sean have been a positive light in the group ever since they started.  Both have struggled with major injuries since starting crossfit.  Sean broke his ankle and Rene was in an ATV accident which injured her knee.  Despite the barrier of these injuries, both persevered!  Both wodded with injury, modifying it as needed.   I do not think I have seen either of them in a bad mood, even when they were justified to be in bad moods with those injuries!   In addition, they are both kind  and supportive to everyone in our little family.  They remind me of that awesome big sister and brother everyone wants.   They show up, put out, and cheer everyone else along while they are at it!  Drumhellers – you will be missed.  We can’t imagine CFKP without you.  Best wishes in your future and we expect to see you wodding online!  






In their honor:

A WOD:
15 min AMRAP

Donation WOD
10 am @ Halsey gym
Barbell's for (Beth's) Boobs!



Today will be our final Barbell's for Boobs WOD this year.

This is our 8th month in our effort to raise money for Mammograms In Action in Beth McNuulty's name.  She is one of our crossfitter's who was diagnosed with breast cancer 8 months ago and was evacuated to the states for treatment.  Beth is now finalizing her treatments, and has moved to Jacksonville, Florida where her husband is currently stationed.   We have currently raised $1650 and I would LOVE to round this out to $2000!!! 

Here is a word from Beth:




"My name is Beth McNulty, the mother of two beautiful children (Connor and Victoria) and wife to a loving husband (Kevin). I was 33 years old, in the best shape of my life with no family history of Cancer. I was an avid Crossfitter, 5 days a week and enjoying every minute of pain! My first WOD was Fight Gone Bad and holy crap I still stuck with it!! I loved it, I loved the comradery, and how it made me feel.

In February of this year, I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. I was crushed!! I was Emergency evacuated in March and had a bilateral mastectomy on March 23rd. I was out of the hospital in 2 days and off pain medication a few days later. I felt well enough visit the Chicago zoo with my family 5 days after surgery. I felt amazing, and I can say a large part of that was because of Crossfit.

 Crossfit put me through some very difficult WOD’s, challenging not only my body, but my mind also. I still finished each and every one of them with a smile on my face. My Crossfit family has helped me push through every barrier that has crossed my path in the past 8 months. I’m so proud of my crossfit family! I miss each and every one of you! Thank you for all that you have done in raising Breast Cancer awareness!!!!! Love you guys!!"

 WOD:
"Grace"
30 Clean and Jerk (135/95)

Scaling options:
You may scale the weight, and movement patterns.  We would like to see everyone move some weight from the ground to overhead for 30 repetitions.  Don't worry if you have never done it before!  I have had 6 year olds do this workout before!  It is a shorter WOD - usually under 10 mins. 



 Beth - you have been a TRUE motivation to everyone here.  We love you and miss you and are extremely proud to WOD for you and all the other women who have struggled with breast cancer.

How do you say "Tabata"? No matter how you say it, Tabata is a form of high intensity interval training method that offers more health benefits than traditional cardiovascular exercise. It’s short and efficient. For twenty seconds do as many reps of the assigned exercise as you can - then rest 10 seconds.
Repeat this seven more times for a total of 8 intervals, 4 minutes total exercise.

A/B WOD: Total reps!
Tuck Jumps
Hand Release Push-ups
AB-Mat Sit-ups
Overhead Squats w PVC/Bar

Spend the rest of the class figuring out what weight you will be using for Grace on Saturday! Use this time to really use the coaches... 30 ground to overhead is NO JOKE! See everyone Saturday at 10am on the concrete pad.

Thursday, October 25, 2012

It has been great to see some new faces join our addiction. It is that addition that keeps us coming back for more. We would love to see everyone come out this Saturday at 10am for our final Barbell for Boobs fundraiser to help a great cause. Please bring a friend... who knows they may want to join in our addition? Until then I leave you with this..."Every time you stay out late; every time you sleep in; every time you miss a workout; every time you don't give 100% - You make it that much easier for me to beat you." - Unknown

18 min AMRAP:

Some information about the Ring Dips- I know most of you want to do the advanced version!
Variations about the Ring Push-up- I'm sure to see superior push-ups since the challenge!

At first glance, kipping pull-ups look like cheating – or maybe even a spastic type of pull-up – but they’re not. Kipping pull-ups allow more work to be done in less time, thus increasing power output. It’s also a full-body coordination movement that, when performed correctly, applies more functionally to real-life pulling skills!

A WOD
Kipping Pull-ups
3 x MAX *Rest 2 mins between sets

THEN~ 3 RFT
10 Deadlifts (135/175)
25 Lateral Box Jumps

B WOD

Work on the beginning of the Kipping pull-up (Watch the video above and decide where you are and work on those skills- IE. heels to laces, knee ups, donkey kick on the floor, etc.)

THEN~ 3 RFT
10 Deadlifts (135/175)
25 Lateral Box Jumps

How much do you love your wall ball?  We don’t generally practice a “strict” wall ball shot because we allow the last rep of a set to fall directly to the ground. Why? Because I find it very gratifying to let that fat ball hit the ground after a lot of reps. Pretty shallow, I know. Maybe it’s worth reconsidering. What I do know is that you are going to LOVE it...
 
5 RFT:
400m run w/ Med Ball
20 Wall Balls
20 Med Ball Sit-Ups

*Med ball weight is 20#/14#
*Med ball sit-ups are performed with bent knees and holding a ball. Ball must tap the ground behind the head and pass over the knees touching the ground in front of the feet. 
*You can perform your Wall Ball shots on the light posts on the track...

The sun'll come out Tomorrow...Bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow there'll be sun!
Just thinkin' about Tomorrow... Clears away the cobwebs, And the sorrow 'Til there's none!
When I'm stuck a day, That's gray, And lonely, I just stick out my chin
And Grin, And Say, Oh! 

"Annie"

50 Double-unders and AB mat sit-ups

40 Double-unders and AB mat sit-ups

30 Double-unders and AB mat sit-ups

20 Double-unders and AB mat sit-ups

10 Double-unders and AB mat sit-ups

Meet in the gym and bring a jump rope... If you don't have double-unders... (3:1 you do the math!)

Find time to train and discover new skills that you have... sumo deadlift highpull! The sumo deadlift high pull is a great power developer. The lift starts much like the deadlift, but with a wider stance and narrow grip. The weight is accelerated using your legs and hips to drive it to a top position directly under your chin. This movement is fast and moves the weight a long distance, therefore making the power output very high.

A WOD: 15 MIN AMRAP
Sumo Deadlift High Pulls (95/65)
5 Wall Climbs
7 Pull-ups
9 Box Jumps (20/24)

B WOD: 15 MIN AMRAP
Sumo Deadlift High Pulls (Kettlebell- 35+)
5 Wall Climbs
7 Jumping Pull-ups
9 Box Jumps (20/24)

*Videos have been included for you to review before class to cut down on instruction. More potential for rain today... be prepared!

Wednesday, October 17, 2012

Good possibility we may have rain today... so get to class early as we might need to do this WOD inside in heats with limited space and "loud" music. Everyone has inside of him/her a piece of good news. The good news is that you don't have to do any more wall ball shots today... I know how much you loved them! I know how much you were able to do and what your potential is for the near future... so I've included lunges for your good news for the day! ENJOY...

A/B WOD: 5 Rounds for Time

15 lunge steps while holding a weighted plate overhead (45/25)
20 pushups
30 Double unders (1:3 singles)

Congratulations to all of our 9 week challengers... the results will be posted soon.

Remember in order to chart your progress and keep track of your results, you need to set yourself goals. It’s important to keep these goals realistic and within a timeframe that will bring about results. Otherwise you’re just setting yourself up for failure, and nothing beats down motivation quicker than that...

Remember no AM coached WODs- This means you can actually do the first part of this WOD in the weight room by yourself...

Back Squat Skill Work (click for video)
3*3*3*3*3*(working up to a 3 rep max)- If you've been writing down your weights, you should have an idea where to start and where you need to stop. Divide this up for each round for manageable weight.

Things to remember:
  • Stance- Shoulder width
  • Lumber curve maintained
  • Weight in heels
  • Depth below parallel
  • Knees track over feet
  • Return to full extension at hips and knees to complete the move
  • Head is in a neutral position
 Finish the WOD:
3X Suicide Sprints (Record fastest time)

Tuesday, October 9, 2011

Remember no coached classes all day Tuesday and Wednesday morning...

"This is your life - right now - it doesn't wait for you to get back on your feet."     unknown

WOD A/B
75 Toes to Bar for Time
Each time you drop, perform 5 plank push-ups.

Really work on getting your toes to the bar that your HANDS are on. Knees to elbows are the preferred scale on this WOD. If you are scaling your workout to knee tucks, make sure your knees break the parallel plain of your hips each time. The key to this WOD is TIGHT CORE!

If time permits:

A WODs need to work on just the bar (not the PVC) ground to overhead- examples would be snatch, clean and jerk, clean and press, clean and push press... the Burgener Warm-up (if you are familiar with this) Really work on your form for the upcoming Barbells for BOOBS on October 27th.

B WODs- ask a partner to help you go through the B side test... you should be familiar with everything on the list.


Monday, October 8, 2012

Halsey Gym is closed for the Holiday, SO~ meet at the track at 10am! Bring a friend, you may need them to complete this challenge...

9  V ups

B WOD
21 Burpee jumping pull ups
21 V ups
15 Burpee jumping pull ups
15 V ups
9  Burpee jumping pull ups
9  V ups
Grab a few of the harder gymnastics mats to help set the height for your burpee pull ups if needed, might have to get a bit creative here for jumpers, but I bet yall can figure it out!

Technically all of these pull ups are jumping, but for B WOD the bar should be wrist height  while for A WOD it should be out of arms reach or hard to reach.

Here is an example of Burpee Pull ups!


Example of V ups!  Try to consistently reach the same part of your toes, foot, ankle, leg for each V up.  Scale it to where you can reach reasonably, but still get a good work out!
