CFH Training Plan 29/02/2016 – 06/03/2016

Posted 28th February 2016 by Josh Schouten

Week 2 of 5 CrossFit Open Time

COACHES COMMENT:

Gone snowboarding, back next week with the continuation on last weeks post.

RECOMMENDED WEEKLY READING:

Theboxmag.com: Why CrossFit Should Be Every Feminist’s Favorite Sport – The ideals surrounding female physique are changing. Embracing a healthy body is the new fad. Lean, strong bodies have lost their masculine stigma, and beauty as a concept is becoming inclusive of different shapes and sizes rather than exclusively waif-like figures. Muscles are miraculously becoming a sign of strength and confidence, and ladies who love to work toward the impossible are proving that previously assumed physical limitations are no match for women on a mission.

Breakingmuscle.com: 3 More Mobility Drills for Solid Overhead Lifts – When I ask new clients what they do most of the day, the answer is almost always “sit in front of a computer.” And it doesn’t stop there. They spend up to nine hours sitting at work. After work, they go home to sit for dinner and television. All sitting. All day.

Amnacademy.com: How to Reduce Tendon Pain and Improve Strength – They have described loaded isometric work whilst the athlete put’s their focused attention, which fires the prefrontal cortex quite strongly, onto the sound of a metronome which in turn fires the temporal lobes which creates a much higher activation of the brain while the person in contracting and it gets this great analgesic effect because your increasing brain activation globally and improving, via cortico-spinal tracts, facilitation to the muscles at work.

Techtimes.com: Coffee May Help Reverse Liver Damage From Alcohol: Study – Could this favorite pick-me-up also be your saving grace against liver damage from booze?

Buzzfeed.com: Here’s How To Actually Stop Eating So Much Sugar – Not everyone needs to make it a goal to eat less added sugar. If you’re meeting your goals for health, performance in your workouts, and body composition, and you feel good, you might be doing just fine with your present intake, says St. Pierre. As BuzzFeed Health has previously reported, if you eat a healthy and balanced diet of whole and minimally processed foods, having a couple cookies regularly probably isn’t something to worry about. So if that’s the case, maybe just keep enjoying those sweets.
