CFH Training Days 15/12/2014 – 21/12/2014
Week 12/12
More testing days this week! Its time to do a 5RM bench and back squat. If you’ve been following the percentages and puting in some quality repetitions over the last 12 weeks we should hopefully see the results. Take your time to and gradually build up to your PB weight. If you don’t PB this week there is no need to get upset. Sleep, nutrition, stress and many other factors can contribute to your efforts in the gym. At this time of the year the Xmas parties just might limit the best intentions.
The 12-CrossFit-Benchmark WOD’s of Christmas continue this week with “Barbara”, “Linda (3 bars of death)”, and “Nancy” joing us in the gym.

12min EMOM Snatch Complex (2-position snatch) 1 Power Snatch + 1 Mid Hang Snatch suggest: 70% of best weight lifted in A. This forces the lifter to produce more power/force on the second rep after having been fatigued by the first, and then having less time and space to lift the second. The aim of this snatch complex is to improve the rate of force development, more aggressive and complete extension at the top of the pull, and more aggressive pull under the bar. MOVE FAST. |

Performance |
Skill: Handstand 1. It all starts with basic push-up mechanics (vertical-forearms) – perform a push-up – whereever your face touches the ground is where the top of your head should go in releation to your hands for the Tripod. 2. Tripod headstand – Apply the same vertical-forearm concept as the push-up to establish a solid base and to share the load (body weight) between all three points of the Tripod. 3. Tripod and change points of contact – take one knee off you elbow, then put it back. Repeat with the other knee 4. Headstand – extend you legs into a hollow body shape (keep your feet above your hands) 5. Handstand with feet on box -push your head through the hole, just like push-press 6. Handstand with only one foot on box, other leg extended overhead 7. Wall walk – as you walk up the wall keep looking at you toes, this will help you maintain a hollow position 8. Wall facing handstand – only your toes touching the wall |
