General Training Notes:
With this being the last week of the cycle and our new cycle starting next Monday, the focus this week is going to be primarily on our lifting. You’ll see that the Metcon’s this week will still be challenging, but they won’t be as complex or brutal as they have been in the leadup to the CrossFit Games. That said, we still want you guys pushing hard on these, but know in the back of your mind that the lifting is more the priority for this week and it’s ok if you want to take this week as a bit of a deload from conditioning. For today’s workout we’ll start out with the sandbag carry, which we want unbroken. This is meant to pre fatigue the back and forearms a bit before moving into two couplets with the dumbbells where grip and back fatigue are likely going to become the limiters at some point. The goal should be to push to go unbroken while you’re working and take your quick rests during movement transitions, but only if you have to. Try to get as far as you can into that first couplet without setting the dumbbells down knowing that the devil’s press will give you a slight break on the forearms when you’re in the burpee. For the second couplet we’re looking for consistent movement on the devil’s press and then going straight into the lunges without setting the dumbbells down. Grip is very limiting for most athletes so we want to make that a big emphasis this off season.
