Ring Muscle-Up Work

Choose one of the following options based on skill/strength…

1) 4-5 Sets:
2-3 False Grip Ring Rows
2-3 Ring Dips with a 3 second down

Make the Ring Rows challenging. Be sure to pass through the bottom of a deep Dip. If you can’t perform a Dip, jump to support and lower down for a 3 count. Alternately, perform 6 Push-Ups with a 3 second down, followed by a 10 second Ring Support.

2) 4-5 Sets:
2-3 Low Ring Band or Leg-Assisted Muscle-Ups

Be sure to pass through the bottom of a deep Dip before pressing out.

3) DIY or:

Kip Swings, a few Dips, then…

3-5 Sets:
1 Strict Muscle-Up
1 Kipping Muscle-Up

If you are anything like the CFSBK blog editor, you’re pretty haphazard when it comes to warming up a barbell lift. “Start at 50%? Sure whatever, that sounds good.” It doesn’t have to be that way! In this video, Coach David walks us through the proper way to warm up a lift. Watch it, absorb it, and put it into action the next time you lift! 

A Letter to New CrossFitters: Good Training Habits 

By David Osorio

Editor’s Note: The video above pairs nicely with a blog classic we haven’t reposted in a few years. The original version of this article appeared on our business blog, Inside the Affiliate.

Below is a short article we ask all our new members to read when they graduate from our Foundations program. At CFSBK, we believe it’s important to guide our members’ training perspectives early on. The sooner we can get folks thinking about how to make proactive, intelligent training decisions, the more likely they’ll optimize their time under our roof.

While it’s our responsibility as coaches to teach movement, program wisely, and generally take care of folks, it’s your job as an athlete to listen to your body, track your workouts, and maintain a mature perspective about why you’re doing CrossFit in the first place. For some athletes, this may be completely intuitive, but most folks walking through our doors will need to be taught even the most basic components of serious physical training. Many people pursue CrossFit because they want to lose some weight or a friend does it and it sounds fun—not necessarily because they’ve suddenly decided to eat, sleep, and breath CrossFit. (The obsession part happens organically, after they’ve been exposed to its benefits.)

With that in mind, the commercial fitness industry’s claims of quick fixes and supposed “secrets” to success may have influenced peoples’ perspectives and expectations when they arrive at our gym, and it behooves us to disabuse them of such false messaging. Messages such as the one below are part of a larger dialogue that CFSBK is constantly facilitating, with the aim of giving our members the most accurate and honest advice about what it takes to adopt a healthy lifestyle.

Hopefully, all of you have already read this article. But a good refresher never hurt anyone…

Good Training Habits

While it’s our responsibility as coaches to teach you movement, program intelligently, and keep you safe, it’s your responsibility as athletes to develop good training habits. Here is an overview of three great habits that will significantly enrich your training experience.

1. Be Proactive With Your Movement Prep

Everyone needs to do a little personalized maintenance on their bodies. Even 10 minutes of DIY movement prep before class can go a long way in keeping you fit and pain free. After you’ve signed in and changed, take advantage of the time you’ve got and start moving.

Warm-up
Row an easy 300-500m on the erg. Get your heart rate up a little and try to get a light sweat going. We recommend holding 20 strokes per minute and rehearsing good form.

Stretch/Foam Roll
Many of us know where our tightest areas are—they’re the ones that make it difficult to squat below parallel or press a barbell overhead. Spend a few minutes mobilizing and doing some soft tissue work (foam roller/LAX ball, etc.) on your “problem areas.” If you don’t know where to begin, ask a coach what you should be prioritizing and we’ll help you out. We also regularly refer our members to out Active Recovery classes and MobilityWOD.com. This is great resource for folks who need simple, effective strategies to help them move better.

2. Log All of Your Workouts

Training without logging is like driving without a road map. You don’t know where you’ve been or where you’re going. Taking notes on each training session helps you track your progress and helps us make informed decisions about how to assist you in choosing weights and scaling movements. Each day should list some quantitative and qualitative notes about your training session. Here is an example:

Warm-Up:
3 rounds NFT
5 Snatch PP (22lb bar)
5 OHS
5 Muscle Snatches
10 Push-ups on knees

Move up to yellow bar

AMRAP 15 minutes:
Row 350m
12 Overhead Squats, 45lbs
4 Rounds + 320m

Kept rows at about 2:23 splits, felt hard but doable. Don’t shift forward during overhead squats…. Mid foot!

You can track your workouts in a journal or online. As coaches, we LOVE to read the details of your workout in the Comments section of CFSBK’s blog. It gives us a deeper perspective into your training and the programming in general.

3. Start Slow and Maintain Perspective

We take our training seriously at CrossFit South Brooklyn and with that comes with a good deal of responsibility. Our movement pool uses serious strength and conditioning exercises in order to develop broad, inclusive fitness. If we don’t treat these movements and workouts with respect, training plateaus and injuries are sure to follow. The best way to ensure your success and training longevity with us is by starting slowly and developing a rock-solid technical base. In fact, the first few months you start CrossFit, intensity should not be a significant concern. The movements are potent enough that just consistently performing them will create a favorable adaptation. After you feel really comfortable with most of our exercises and have a working knowledge of your weights, only then should you start ramping up the intensity.

Training with a lifelong perspective is incredibly important. Remember that you’re here to build yourself up, not break yourself down. Scaling workouts properly, listening to your body and checking your ego at the door will allow you to work out successfully for years to come. Most importantly, have fun with this stuff and enjoy the process.

News and Notes

• Tonight’s Jiu Jitsu Open Mat is cancelled. Callie is out of town!
• We’re always trying to get better at what we do. If you have a minute, head over to the Feedback page and tell us about your experience at the gym!

The barbell comes off the floor and all sets should be heavy but unbroken. You may go up in weight each set as appropriate, or choose to perform sets across. Scale the Toes-to-Bars as needed to Hanging Knee Raises, and the Bar Muscle-Ups to either Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups (jumping if needed) or Jumping Bar Muscle-Ups. Scaling volume by cutting a rep or two on the gymnastics movements is also an option.

Better Know a Member: Trisha Buckley

Over the last few weeks, your trusty CFSBK blog has been bringing you Better Know a Member profiles from across our community of kind, interesting, wonderful members. Last week we learned about Corey B.’s comedic talents and exceptional bowling abilities. Today we’re very excited to get to know Trisha B., one of our dedicated Fit 55+ athletes, a little better.

Name (and any nicknames):

Trisha Buckley, and in many CrossFit circles, “Mama Buckley.”

Where were you born and where did you grow up?

I was born right here in Brooklyn, came home from the hospital to Berkeley Place. I was raised in a traditional Irish Catholic family. I’m the youngest of 4 and the only girl. I also raised my two daughters Emily and Bridget in Park Slope. Can’t take a girl out of Brooklyn!

How long have you been CrossFitting, and how did you arrive at CFSBK?

I have been CrossFitting for 2.5 years. I arrived at CFSBK a year ago when I asked my younger daughter, Emily, to find a CrossFit gym closer to home, one that would offer me a challenging workout and also keep an eye out on me to avoid injuries. She spoke with Coaches Fox and David and here I am… amazingly happy to be part of the Fit 55+ class.

Do you have any unusual rituals/superstitions or habits related to life or CrossFit?

With every workout I am challenged! I imagine myself as my Games athlete daughter, Emily Buckley. I imagine her for inspiration and try to mimic her technique, which at times includes a lot of grunting and heavy breathing! I was extremely happy to compete on a team with Emily a few months ago at Fight Gone Bad!

What’s your hidden talent?

I’m an astrologer and tarot card reader! Wacky, I know how it sounds, but it’s all about the cycles of life, and I am able to help people using this medium.

Ask me about that time I…

I hitchhiked and backpacked across the country a few times! It was a different time, and I would probably kill my own kids if they had even attempted to do it.

If you had to switch careers today, what would you choose to do?

Thankfully, I have reached an age where I happily left my corporate sales management job and only do what I choose to do: I read astrology charts and tarot cards professionally, and I provide child care for a very lovely family. I love kids! I find my days very rewarding.

What are you up to when you’re not at 597 Degraw Street?

Hanging out with friends, traveling, and making repairs/improvements to my very old house on 12th Street.

Any advice for new CFSBKers?

I encourage anyone even slightly interested in the 55+ Fit class to give it a go! We are all stronger than us think we are! If not now, then when? Start slowly, easily, learn how to do every part of the class with good form and just go from there. You’ll be amazed at the results.

News and Notes

• The Community Potluck is this Saturday night. In a CFSBK first, we’ll be doing karaoke! (David is getting soft.)  In case you want to practice beforehand, these are the YouTube channels we’ll be using: Sing King Karaoke and Karafun.

• The next Look, Feel, Perform Better Challenge Lecture and Q&A is this Sunday, February 4th at 12pm in the Annex. See the event page for details!

Stress, Cortisol, and Body Composition

By Chris Fox

Editor’s Note: The following is an adapted version of Coach Fox’s recap notes from this year’s 2nd Look, Feel, Perform Better Challenge Lecture. We liked it so much that we’re posting it here for everyone to read. Enjoy!

What is stress?

Stress, as we’re discussing it, is a normal physiological response to danger, or something else that upsets your equilibrium. Your body’s response to it is to kick in the “fight or flight” response as it’s way of protecting you, and there is a wave of hormonal action associated with this response. This could be brought on by a challenging workout, almost getting hit by a bus, fighting with your boss, getting cut off in traffic, or worrying too much about things you can’t control.

What is cortisol?

Cortisol is a hormone released by the adrenal cortex, and it is a main “fight or flight” hormone. It’s often called a “stress hormone” because it’s released under times of stress. One of it’s main jobs is to facilitate something called gluconeogenesis, the breaking down of muscle tissue to create glucose for energy.

Is cortisol good or bad?

Both, really… but it’s not that simple. When released naturally in response to acute stress, it does the job it supposed to do and helps provide your body with the energy necessary to escape danger, and it’s pro-inflammatory action aids the healing of damaged tissues. In normal life, as humans evolved, these types of stresses would come on fast but also pass just as fast, allowing hormone levels to normalize. Nowadays however, it’s common for people to move from stress to stress, and spend too much time in “fight or flight”, thus maintaining elevated levels of cortisol. Chronic elevated levels of cortisol are associated with: decreases in lean muscle mass, increases in body fat, decreased auto immune response, among other things.

How can I manage stress?

Certain stresses can result in a net positive once the stress is dealt with and you return to homeostasis (a workout, learning a new skill, public speaking, etc.). Others acute stresses can be harmful (being eaten by a tiger), and chronic stress is particularly bad if we don’t turn off the stress response. We’ve all heard that things like yoga, meditation, and relaxation techniques help reduce stress, but you don’t have to become a yogi or a monk to work on chilling out. Here is a link from the good folks over at Precision Nutrition with more info on stress and strategies to manage your load.

You’ll notice that things like listening to music or petting your (or someone else’s) dog can also help! In short, although some stress is good, we need to be able to turn it off. Chronic elevated stress levels will hinder not only sport performance and body composition, but can have negative long term health effects as well. Experiment with some stuff to find your personal favorite way to relax.

This Sunday: LFPB Challenge Lecture and Q&A

The next Look, Feel, Perform Better Challenge Lecture and Q&A is this Sunday, February 4th at 12pm in the Annex. In this 3rd lecture of the 2018 Challenge, we’ll discuss “trigger” foods. We’ve all got foods that we like that are also healthy for us, foods that are less than healthy that we can’t resist, and foods that fall in the middle. We’ll use the “Red Light, Yellow Light, Green Light” system to help identify which foods are which, and discuss what to do with that information.

Upcoming Training Cycle Template

Training Cycle Dates: M 1/29/18 – Su 3/25/18 (through all 5 weeks of the Open)

Goals: This cycle will run a bit more similar to classic CrossFit (i.e., constantly varied, functional movement executed at appropriately high intensity). While we’ll see consistent exposures to movements on specific days, the load, rep, and set schemes will be varied, sometimes showing up in a dedicated lifting segment and sometimes in the metcon. The main focus of the cycle is to perform well in the Open—to stay fresh for each week’s workout, which we’ll again program for Saturday’s group classes, rather than gearing the cycle towards improvement in specific lifts/movements.
