CF training program, phase 2, week 4 21/8/17 – 27/8/17

Posted 18th August 2017 by Geoff Stewart

Crossfit
Week 4 of our new training phase, Louie is here. Read more about Louie here.

Week 4 is with us and is seems everyone has had / is having a holiday so let’s get stuck into this week and use those sun tans to good effect. Suns out guns out.

This week we are changing it up and shaking it around. We are aiming for you to build upon the movements and skills acquired over the previous 3 weeks. Again our focus is on great movement, solid form and only then do we get into weight on the bar. The staple of a Crossfit Hackney plan remains with squats, deadlifts pull ups and bench press. The reps are coming down so the weight should be moving up – if you really want to grind your movements and are new to lifting keep the reps higher. Our energy days are just that so approach these with some intent they can get pretty juicy, be brave and as R Kelly once said believe you can fly…

A short note to take with you into your workouts:

YGIG or You Go I Go. This means someone is working and someone is resting. Yes rest people – it isn’t a rude word make the most of it. In a YGIG format the rest is there so you can recover and when it’s you turn, go for it.

Have a sweet week x
