Upcoming Training Cycle Template
Training Cycle Dates: M 10/14/19 – S 11/10/19 (4 weeks)
Goals: This 4-week cycle will run us through the 2019 Crossfit Open Redux! Open workouts will be the group class for Saturdays. Understanding the fact that we won’t know what movements will be programmed until Thursday evenings, we’ll aim to be on fresh legs and ready for anything (just about) on Saturdays. Olympic lifting will show up Tuesdays and/or Thursdays and/or Sundays, depending again on what the Open Workouts are. The general template will look as follows:
Monday
Heavy Squat or Hinge Variant + Medium Intensity Metcon
Tuesday
Skill Work + High Intensity Metcon
Wednesday
Heavy Press Variant + Low Intensity Aerobic Metcon
Thursday
Medium Intensity Aerobic Intervals
Friday
Unilateral Lower/Upper Body Strength Work + Stability Work + Cyclical Cardio Work
Saturday
Open Workout!
Sunday
Skill Work + Recovery Day
News and Notes
- Go HERE to sign up for this week’s Friday Night Lights. Please note that we’ll be offering 4:30pm and 5:30pm classes on Friday nights throughout the Open, but Friday 6:30pm classes will be cancelled through November 8th. Because Friday is no longer a scheduled rest day, we’ll be running the Open Workouts only during Friday Night Lights and Saturday group classes. You can, of course, also do the workouts during Open Gym.
- Check the blog tomorrow to read an interview with our October Athlete of the Month. Who’s it gonna be?!
- CFSBK is running on our regular schedule today. Have the day off? Come get your fitness on with us!

Box Squat:
95, 115, 125×4 sets of 3
After my first set of 125, Lynsey recommended we drop to a little stool with a 45# plate. Wow! That made a huge difference.
Really enjoyed these, *especially* after moving the block lower. It was cool to really dig through my sticky spot.
Wod: made it 15 reps into the 25 round on wallballs.
As for the open, I did 137 reps. Wish I wouldn’t have taken so many breaks in the clean& jerks. I could have stuck with sets of 5/3, but got tired and broke it up more.
Same thing for today. I really hate wallballs, so I just broke them up and rested too much : X
