Workout of the Day

AMRAP 15:00
15 push jerks (95/65/45)
12 chest-to-bar pull-ups
9 sumo deadlift high pulls (95/65/45)

Notes
Aim for 4-6 rounds.
This is a grip and shoulder fatiguing workout, pace yourself accordingly and take appropriate breaks on the pull-ups as your grip tires.
Push jerks should be unbroken for the majority of the workout.
Chest-to-bar pull-ups should take no more than 3 sets.
The sumo deadlift high pulls should be completed in 1-2 sets.

THIS YEAR’S BENEFACTOR: BCHS

This year’s benefactor will be Brooklyn Community Housing & Services. BCHS is committed to ending homelessness in Brooklyn. They provide housing and services for more than 1,000 formerly homeless and at-risk children, women and men each year. They help them learn how to live productively and independently, with dignity, and with hope. Below is a great video showing the impact on 3 people who used their services and housing to get back on their feet.

 RAD at CFSBK Next Week!

Hey ya’ll so the RAD shoe event on 10/8 is in zen planner as an “event”. You’ll need to use this link to register yourself for the class time you want to participate in. We’ll run a special workout and have some fun stuff going on with the RAD crew, a taco truck and a special guest! Short Circuit folks are encouraged to sign up too, the workout will be accessible to you as well.

Workout of the Day

5 Intervals, each for rounds of:

AMRAP 3:00
3 Bar Muscle-Ups or Kipping Pull-Ups
5 DB Deadlifts
7 Box Jump Overs

3:00 Bike @ recovery pace

Notes
Today’s workout is a 30 minute interval alternating between a higher intensity effort on the triplet followed by a low intensity interval on the bike.

The BMU/Pull-up portion should be something that you could walk over to the bar, bang out the reps unbroken or as a couple quick singles and then move on. 3:00 isn’t long enough to do a version that will force you to stare at the bar.
BMU: 3 BMU / 1 BMU / 3 CTB or kipping / 3 banded, strict or self assisted
DB DL: 50s/35s/20s Only go as low as you can maintain a neutral back with.

Recently a group of 6 New York Army National Guard Officer Candidates came to CFSBK in order to learn rope climbing technique. The group is getting ready for an upcoming trip to Candidate School at Fort Benning, GA where one of the tests they’ll go through will include rope climbs. It’s not easy to find facilities in NYC that have ropes and high enough ceilings to practice on. CFSBK is happy to donate our space for these National Guard candidates!
