CFH Training Days 02/02/2015 – 08/02/2015
Posted 1st February 2015 by Josh Schouten
WEEK 5/12
COACHES COMMENT:
It’s going to be another busy month at Momentum training. Shipload on the calendar this month, including the start of the 2015 CrossFit Open. This worldwide CrossFit competition commences in the last week of February and runs for 5weeks. For the first time CrossFit HQ will be running a scaled version of the CrossFit Open. This allows athletes of all abilities to take part in the CF Open and pick and choose the WODS that they need to scale. Yes, athletes can choose to do some WODs scaled and other WODs Rx. A clever way to allow anybody to take part, have some fun and compare their efforts with friends, family, and other gym members. This also gives you the chance to compare your 2015 efforts with future endeavours. Personally, I think this is a fantastic idea as there are loads of athletes who enjoy the competition side of CrossFit, and lets be honest the majority of us are not shooting for the Regionals.
Everybody is capable of entering the CF Open, no matter your experience or ability. The first time I took part in the CrossFit Open was in 2012, unfortunately there was no scaled back in my day (getting old). I’d only been doing CrossFit for about 1 year, and I recall the WODS went something like this:
WOD 12.1: 7min AMRAP Burpess
Burpees have never been so tough as the movement standards required athletes to jump and reach for target 2inchs above standing reachheight. I think I scores 115reps, and I remember being sore for the 3 days after this WOD!
WOD 12.2: 10min AMRAP:
35kg Snatch, 30 reps
62.5kg Snatch, 30 reps
75kgpound Snatch, 30 reps
97.5kg pound Snatch, as many reps as possible
At the time 60kg was my PB snatch. During this WOD I managed to PB my snatch and complete 4reps at 62.5kg. A total of 34reps completed in 10min of work, not a great score, but who cares, I’d PB my snatch!
WOD 12.3: 18min AMRAP:
15 Box jumps, 24″ box
115 pound Push press, 12 reps
9 Toes-to-bar
I wish I could remember this WOD. I love a box jump and my TTB are solid these days. I have no idea what I score on this WOD, but it must have been awesome. 😉
WOD 12.4: 12min AMRAP:
150 Wall balls 9kg 10ft
90 Double-unders
30 Muscle-ups
The total number of muscles up’s I’d ever done was less than 10, and I’d never done them in a WOD before (under fatigue) and mu DU were ugly at best. Somehow I managed to get 3reps on the MU station? Again, I was very happy with this result.
WOD 12.5: 7min AMRAP:
3,6,9,12,15……
Thrusters 47.5kg
Chest-to-bar Pull-ups
This was a heavy Thruster for me at the time, my Fran time was not worth mentioning. Again I managed to battle through this WOD and I recall making it into the round of 15 Pull-ups.
I would not be able to tell you where I finished in the 2012 CF Open, to be honest I didn’t really care. I was simply happy survive and put a score on the board. I look back at this now and think how far I have come. Just the other week I did a 10min EMOM of 3 Snatches @ 65kg and only failed 1/30reps. I can now do strict muscle-up and only last week I did 10min EMOM 3 Muscle-ups (30reps) without fail.
One of the best reason to take part in the CF Open is being able to look back and see how far you have come. CrossFit is hard work and ever single improvement is worth the acknowledgement. The other main reason to take part is the fact that its a chance to put your training to the test and have some fun. Most of us have not played a competitive sport since we were teenagers. If you thinking of entering and you have and questions please feel free to speak with one of the coaches. Registrations are now open, and you can sign up here.
NOTE: The CrossFit Open runs for 5 weeks and a new workout is published each Thursday. The scaled version of the WODS will be added to the CrossFit Hackney programming on the Saturday after the publication date. The CrossFit Open (non-scaled) version of the WODS will take place in the CrossFit Weapons classes on Sunday. We are also planning to run a Friday night-lights event each week where members can some and complete the WODs either scaled or Rx, with the high probability of a meal and some drinks at the pub after. Loads of chances to get involved!!
