Bench and Recover

CrossFit Carolina Beach – Competitors Training

– Strength: Dumbbells will be facing in with a neutral grip. Use 2-3 sets to work up to working weight for all 4 sets.

Wide grip pull ups require more involvement from lats compared to close grip; gradually increase weight. Try to maintain a hollow position throughout the pull-up. This is simply maintenance upper-body work so this work is intended to be lower volume and smooth. Don’t try to push yourself here. This type of work will be done every other week on our ”recovery” day.

– Recovery: All work should be done between 120-130 BPM which is lower than our cardiac output work. The open is approaching so it’s time to make sure you’re fully recovered. Break this work up however you see fit, but know that it should be ”easy.”

Full Aerobic Capacity!

CrossFit Carolina Beach – CrossFit

– Strength: The goal of today’s work is to build in weight with the pull-up and use one weight across all sets for the DB Bench Press. This is 4 ”work sets” so don’t count your 2-3 build-up sets in this figure.
– Metcon: Today’s metcon consists of 2 separate AMRAPs which will keep the heart rate elevated to help improve aerobic capacity. There is 60s of designated rest between AMRAPs which won’t be enough to fully recover. Aim for 80-85% intensity throughout this workout.

CrossFit Carolina Beach – Competitors Training

– Strength/Skill: You should have plenty of time each minute to rest before the next movement. Make sure you’re bracing the abdominals during the OH carry.

– Metcon: Effort today should be around 75-80%. Your goal is to keep moving throughout this workout with small periods of rest. You may need to break largers sets, but should aim to go unbroken on the Push Press. This is an easy workout to incur high amounts of local fatigue. Try to avoid that by managing your work.

PARKING!!!

Please for the sake of parking, please park behind the Hibachi restaurant and have a short 200m walk.

The Southern Sign Company has a function at 10:00 and we will be diverting traffic from parking in front of their building.

Thank you and enjoy the short warm up!

For those of you that completed this workout in 2016 you probably remember that really few people in your box made it past the round of 13 squat cleans. Even less made it to or through 225 so consider this to be an 8-12 minute piece. There are few factors that we need to consider with this workout. Pacing is critical.

Moving fast enough to earn more time but not blow yourself up is critical.
