CrossFit Hackney Weekly WOD’s 07/07/2014 – 13/07/2014
The coming 12 weeks of CrossFit Hackney programming will require all “CrossFit Athletes” to know and record their weights. The program is designed to improve the athletes strength by specifically focusing on percentages. “TESTING DAYS” will appear in the program each month. These are a chance for athletes to monitor progress and set new personal records. The month will have the following structure:
Day | Focus |
Monday | Snatch Focus |
Tuesday | Power Clean and Jerk |
Wednesday | Gymnastics midline stability and handstand work |
Thursday | Weeks 1-5: Improve your Front Squat |
Friday | Beach muscle Friday and Cindy Capacity (WOM) |
Saturday | CFA = Power Snatch and CleansAll other Athletes = Deadlift and Cleans |
Sunday | Gymnastics Ring work |
The aim of the next 12 weeks is:
Olympic Lifting:
This is a 12-week, 3-mesocyle training cycle(3 days of lifting per week). The first two 4-week blocks are fairly high volume phases, and the final 4-week will be an intensity increase towards 1RM Snatch, Clean and Jerk.
General “CrossFit,” “CrossFit Endurance,” and “CrossFit Rookies” will contiune to practice the movements with the aim of seeing improvements over the next 12 weeks. These athletes will also work on improving deadlift strength.
Squat:
The first 5 weeks will work towards a 1RM Front Squat for the “CrossFit Athletes”. The next 7 weeks will build to a 1RM Back squat attempt. Again these athletes need to know/record their weights over the weeks to come if they want to maximise the results.
General “CrossFit” and “CrossFit Endurance” will work towards a 3RM front squat followed by a 3RM back squat attempt. The CrossFit Rookies will continue to focus on learning the movements and building a soild base of strength over the 12 weeks.
Pushing strength:
Overhead pressing, press-ups and gymnastic HeSPU will be also be a major focus. Shoulder position and stability will be emphasised during these phases.
Gymnastics:
Midline control, handstand and ring work for 8 weeks. Doing the basics well (push-ups, pull-ups, and air squats) will improve all aspects of health, fitness and performance.
