CFH Training Plan 30/03/2015 – 05/04/2015
Week 1 of 16 Juggernaut
COACHES COMMENT:
The Juggernaut phase is here and its time to build some raw strength again. I strongly recommend you all downloaded the CrossFit Hackney Juggernaut spread sheet to calculate and record your numbers.
week 1 is all about the 60% (of your working weight) intensity and focusing on building both mental and physical toughness. The aim is to AMRAP in the last set, and during the 10’w wave most of you will be doing more than 20reps in the final set. Have a goal in mind and tell you coach or your training partner what this goal is. Don’t just step up to the bar and see what happens, set yourself a target and then hit it, or beat it. In the first week the aim is to finish 2-3reps of failure. Do not go until complete failure.
The weight may seem a little light in the first 2 weeks of each Juggernaut cycle, remain patient and work on increasing the number of repetitions. Volume is the key to the strength improvements in this system.
Record your weights on the whiteboard. There will now be 2 separate sections on the whiteboard in the gym to record your Juggernaut weight and repetitions of the AMRAP, and the WOD time.
RECOMMENDED WEEKLY READING:
For the Love of Toes-To-Bar – Part1 | This month the CrossFit Hackney programme will include much more than just the Juggernaut strength programme. We are going to dedicate some time to quality skill movements, starting with Toes-To-Bat (TTB) and the Push-up |
What Is The Best Way To Set Goals For Strength Development | Your about to build some solid strength, but do you have a goal in mind. Just doing the reps in not going to deliver the best results, you need movtivation and a drive to achive an end goal. What weight could you life when you first started CrossFit? What can you lift now? What are your goals at the end of the next 16-weeks? |
The Good Intestinal Strategies | As many people can attest, solving chronic intestinal issues can be a very complicated process. Identifying food allergies (IgE and IgG) and food intolerances (lactose or fructose) can help some, but it is often a long, difficult, expensive and sometimes inefficient proce |
How to NOT suck at CrossFit | No a week passes without somone asking us “hw do I get better at ….” You want to know how toget better, set a goal, train what your suck at, eat a healthy diet, lower your booze intake, improve your sleep, take rest DAYS, hydrate, be consistent, do mobility, and most important of all LISTEN TO YOUR COACHES!! |
Get a Better Rack | Do you struggle with your front rak position? Some simple mobility drills might hold the answer. |
