CrossFit Carolina Beach – CrossFit
– Strength: Week 1 of Speed Work with the Box Squat. Use a wide-stance and a weight that you can move fast and efficiently with for all sets. We’ll then culminate our strength work with some explosive strength work with the KB squat jumps. These are done for maximal height on each jump.
– Metcon: Today’s metcon involves hip-extensions (Deadlifts) and hip-flexion (T2B) with 60s rest between sets. This is to allow you to sustain a high level of output. Use a load for the deadlift that is challenging but allows you to maintain perfect technique.
Warm-up
A: Warm-up (No Measure)
Complete 5 minutes x 50 ft of:
– High Knees
– Butt Kickers
– Walking Lunge with a twist
– Jumping Jack Shuttle

Then 3 sets of “get-up” sprints increasing in intensity on each subsequent set.
– have people lay on the ground – supine. On your clap they will get to their feet and “sprint” 50 ft starting off at 50% intensity and building to 80%.
Then,
Grab Barbells, Set-up in rack and start drilling the Box Squat with empty bars adding light weight each set.
